    But it hasn't really done us any damage though imo. You keep talking about how we are viewed I would say we probably get as much respect elsewhere from it as we do condemnation from "fellow fans".

    For example if you talk to German football fans/ people generally. I don't mean just St Pauli fans here. My Brother lives in Frankfurt and my sister in-laws family are from just outside Stuttgart they genuinely can't believe how the English have allowed the EPL to become so soulless. Personally I would rather listen to their opinions than want to bend over for UEFA.

    It doesn't have to be The Green Brigade, however if you take the politics out of football we are * imo.

    My political views have nothing to do with football... The fact they're all lying * make me think that no matter which way I leaned, the poor children will still be poor.

    I was actually helping out at Cash for kids on Friday btw... So get your stupid remarks that have nothing to do with what I said to *. Or, you can p.m. me instead of making it look like I'm something I'm not.

    I don't give a * about politics mate... I do care about my football club. I was only giving my opinion. It differs from yours, I'm ok with that :50:

    Well a couple of them are season ticket holders so they might have but also they might not have. Should that make a difference?

    Of course he is just as they should be allowed a reply. But in my opinion he is being used by Mr Lawwell.

    Yet you are embarrassed by people condemning the very policies that have driven those children (deeper) into poverty? You might want to reflect on that.

    If you are so into politics why don't you become a politician or if you want to alleviate poverty rent out your home to the homeless. Instead of waving banners take proper action with will result in social change.

    What are you on about?

    You're trying to push your beliefs onto me ffs. That's what you believe the Tories are doing. I just said it should be kept away from football. What don't you understand?

    Protest has never resulted in political change, has it?

    For the record, the Green Brigade's direct action on social issues is extensive and well-documented.

    Try harder.

    Well if they felt strongly against the banner and had courage of conviction, then I presume they would make their feelings known.

    Celtic fans should not have to become apolitical for fear upsetting the idiotic, ignorant or greedy

    That's fair enough. However criticising other people for expressing their political views is in itself a political view. I really don't see how anybody can argue any other way.

    Jesus Christ! Have a * word with yourself, have you missed all the amazing charity work the GB have organised and been supported generously in by the wider support?

    I don't want it at our ground, especially when it would have been nice to support an ex player instead.
