    Arrests For Alleged Sectarianism At Dunfermline v Rangers

    The wording of this makes me think that it was Dunfermline fans that were arrested.......

    add to that the arrests last week for anti-racist behaviour (also pars fans i believe). looks like the fife constabulary are doing what all officials have been asked to....weeding out the eejits. probably hear more and more incidents as the season goes on.

    Could easily hear songs sung by rangers fans that should be no where near a football stadium

    a berwick rangers fan was ejected from Easter Rd for being over enthusiastic the other week. Police would'nt dare do that to a hun. Oh no. its high time we started watching the police as opposed to the fans belting out bile.

    I looked at the time on Sky, it was 2 minutes old, and sectarian singing was clearly evident by more than a minority.

    Posted the same on the other thread about the racism arrest at our game last weekend. It does make you wonder about who makes the decisions about policing at games in Scotland.

    Personally, as long as a precedent is set, I would be happy if it was set with a smaller club (even us). It needs to start somewhere, and if it takes a club like ours, or Dunfermline being made the example of it means the cancer that is the majority of old firm fans will begin to actually be tackled.

    Yes, it is ridiculous to pick on a isolated incident from a non old firm club when both halves have been singing their bile for over a century, but if the positive to come out of this is that there are no more blind eyes turned to the old firm I'll be delighted.

    I love scotland, but I was embarassed to be in Oslo for the Scotland game under Burley (aside from the football ) to hear a group of Norwegians singing the famine song to me. It didn't offend me personally, and they didn't have a clue what they were singing about but if that's the kind of thing they pick up from Scottish football then I'm embarassed to be a Scottish football fan!

    I know somwone who appeared in court after the Old Frm shame game last season. He was charged with sectarion something orother.
    They dont wade in and and pull them during the game. They wait till after and arrest them as they are leaving. Going in and arresting individuals or groups durimg thegame could spark huge trouble so makes sense.

    It seems the Fife constabulary, and Dunfermline fc are to be congratulated on their stand against Racism, and Sectarianism.

    WELL DONE TO BOTH

    The police should just get the names and addresses of all OF fans at away games and arrest the lot of them. They will never be punished to any real extent while they can scapegoat the smaller teams.

    According to the STV article, the three arrested are Rangers fans

    What you find offensive and what is sectarian is two different things.

    If you going to go public and say you noticed at 2 mins sectarians songs were sung, at least have the let us know what you heard or are you now doubting it was sectarian?

    A colleague at work knows of some guys that were lifted in the Dunfermline end for singing. A couple were pars fans and a couple were Celtic fans apparently

    You and your **** pals have gotten away with it for years. Remember the Orange jersey's as a tribute to the Dutch? Or the ****'s changing the word's "Fenian blood" to "hibee blood" and that made it all ok. Oh what a hoot that is. What were the domestic violence stats after the latest weegie get together again? The taxpayer will pick up the bill though, youz are skint.

    I'm sure if you both switch to a Rangers supporters website you'll find the class of debate you're more accustomed to.

    Although that song has nothing at all to do with football, you could not lift bodies for signing it. iMO if at a public event you feel the need to tell people that deep down, you will take a dislike to people for other reasons than content of character or their actions, then you want people to know that you are a bigot/racist. Not sure if that needs pity or prosecution. When you used to hear the odious Billy Boys sung to a side full of Italian Catholics it was more of self-piss-take.

    You missing the point, someone says they heard sectarian singing, if that was the case why not just say what they heard?

    Orange top anyone offended by that has problems IMO,lots of teams have orange tops although it was tangerine
