    I watched it on sky and just happened to turn over bbc at ad break when they started talking about it and thought it was a * different game they were talking about as i thought the fans were fantastic again today and certainly weren't singing any sectarian songs.

    GIRFUY them.

    Where were they for the whole season? Just a coincidence they spout their mouth when it's the last game of the season and they wouldn't need to even it up.

    As for Pat Nevin he can go * himself.He said he always speaks out about it yet whenever he is brought on 5LIVE for a Scottish perspective on what happens to Lennon he dodges everything and tries to paint a nice picture.*.

    Very strange IMO, they culdnt wait to get it in.

    when was the last time any sort of singing and chanting was mentioned as promptly as that at half time.

    Celtic have to be carfull as this is a new step of the scottish media trying to make us look *. as other have said this is not an arguement about if these songs should be song, it is an arguement that these songs are not bigoted and may only be offensive.

    i wad disgusted at how quick they were to slate celtic, i noticed big john said nothing. well done big man:icon_mrgreen:

    Done. Also asked that they issue an apology and acknowledge that no sectarian songs were sung.

    Posted my complaint in the match thread, but this is what I wrote following the BBCs HT broadcast



    I would like to complain about Rob McLean, and Pat Nevin's, comments about alleged sectarian singing from the Celtic Support at Hampden. I heard no sectarian songs, and by sectarian I mean songs containing religious bias. Could you perhaps explain what songs moved Rob to comment on a national broadcast? Furthermore I am rather disgusted that in a season of bombs, bullets and bigotry ( as your own poorly composed documentary called it) you felt it appropriate to pick out the Celtic support on what should be a happy cup final day? Rangers singing went unnoticed by the SFA and various broadcasting corporations, including your own, for most of the season. Yet it feels that your corporation have leapt at the opportunity to sully celtic's name. Your cameras and microphones must not have picked up what Rob had heard, and I can guarantee that you have lost many viewers myself included to the Sky broadcast.

    The one thing I would like to add here is that I have never never sang a song with the words IRA in it. I leave that for the Irish part of our support, I'm from Britain and these songs are just like me singing "* save the queen" and "oh Flower" I know what they mean and in no way are they in anyway sectarian.

    I don't take offense at these songs, songs are a way of remembering history and what the human race is capable of if we allow our selfs to forget.

    The Celtic family spreads it arms around the world from Ireland, Britain, Australia, Honduras to USA. It doesn't matter to us what your history is as long as you know our history.:shamrock:

    I don't know if this can be done or if there are any lawyers in here who can help..

    Can Celtic go to court with a list of songs and ask if they are deemed sectarian?

    We know they aren't but if a court ruled it then the papers couldn't use the term to bring us down to their level

    Anyone know if this can be done?
