Sturgeon

[Delboy*]

Good wee response from Sturgeon on Scotland tonight. Posed about her quick congrats to Hibs and lack of condemnation to the trouble n she said that theres a world of difference between congratulating a team that won the cup after 114 years and condemning the unacceptable behaviour of some of the fans.
also said that it was some of THE fans, which means, Yeh news Flash, Some Hibs, Some Rangers. She also made it clear that the vast majority fans do behave.
Good on u lass. It was even the way she responded, as if to say och get a grip man!!!

[steakbake]

It shows you the strength of Rangers minded media that she was even asked.

[High-On-Hibs]

The sheer bile and hatred over on The Rangers Media regarding Sturgeon. Needless to say, they won't have much love for their future queen.

[hibsbollah]

Lunacy that she was even forced to respond to that Rangers joke of a press release. Which journo/outlet are we talking about?

[BroxburnHibee]

How did she ever win the Govan seat

[RoYO!]

I'm not an snp man but she's growing on me! ;)

[Finn2015]

Probably will get it thick from the Internet loyal for some time to come

I believe there's a major element of folk in Govan who don't even know how to hold a pen, let alone put a cross in a box. (Much like the Rangers)

[cabbageandribs1875]

well said Nicola sturgeon always say what right minded decent normal people would expect yi tae say...never EVER bow to the utter filth that is ibrox



Rangers hit out at First Minister Nicola Sturgeon for tweeting her congratulations to Hibs without making any reference to the disorder which followed the match.

[JJP]

Oh my word. They actually asked her that!?

I know. I must admit I'm surprised she hasn't been to visit the Rangers players in hospital either.

Questions must be asked about whether her position is tenable.

[Bostonhibby]

Maybe she managed to spot that high spirited fellows from the the rangers end were carrying out some violent assaults not to mention the disturbing footage of the seizing of the child?

Suppose she could have been waiting for all the evidence supporting the many alleged assaults on the the rangers players before jumping to any conclusions?

There's always the vague possibility that she's got a downer on the zombie fans because one of them was filmed hitting a horse.

Surprised Kenny miller is not on the chopping block for entering the hibs dressing room to congratulate every Hibs player.

excuse me, don't mention her position. tenable in Govan might mean a totally different position, in bed

I can only guess that the majority of the Huns thought that it was dinner order, saw Sturgeon, and put their signature (=a big fat X) next to it. Mr Chips who was the Labour candidate came a close second.

Govan, believe it or not, is actually a big Celtic/Tim area. Just like Bridegton is a big Hun enclave in the East end of the Weege.

The only tenable Sevco should be worried about is Celtic's league wins!

[MurrayfieldHibs]

She is a top politician she has the balls to stand up to these so called "journalists".

Is that true? Never seen evidence of Bridegton being a big The Hun enclave whenever I've been there.

[Finn2015]

I'm sure there are Celtic fans in bridgeton, I think the problem is that there are pubs there which are hard or staunch loyalist dens. Not sure about govan

The 'we are the Brickton (Bridgeton) Billy Boys' refrain in the odious 'Hello, Hello' song should give you a clue.

Less so now with redevelopment, but still a strong hard-core (ie: fascist/racist/loyalist/ulster) Hun presence.

The Billy Boys is a song based on a Loyalist gang from that area, 'The Brigton Billy Boys'.

It was traditionally a 'Protestant' area of town and still has lots of Rangers Pubs. Obviously that level of segregation's been diluted quite a bit over the years.

Yep, the two grounds seem to have been built in the opposite place from where their fan base is.

I used to live up the road in Dennistoun. It's pretty mixed, but the area around Bridgeton cross and up to Duke St is a bit of a focus of local hunnery. The orange walks have to be seen (and heard) to be believed. Talk about the ugly (and cimplene bedecked) side of Scotland.

Yes it's very true , worked in Brigeton fixing heating in the council estates, some nice people and some not so nice people there, but nearly 90% of the houses you go in there is union jacks red hands draping over the livingroom . And a stones throw from there enemy . Was hard to work it out but very true.

I've never understood any of that stuff ever, the orange walks and so on.
No idea what the big deal is. It always came over to me as just utterly lame and divisive crap.

The irony is that Sturgeon is a Rangers fan!
