A banner for Saturday against Mc Bride. Thoughts.

**mickki40** · 16-11-2011 04:30 AM

section 43 guys who recently made the banner, are seriously considering Going into the art room again on Saturday Morning and making a big banner condemning Mc Bride Q.C. Words to the effect " we're not sectarian Mc Bride" I reckon we can get a banner looking good in 3 hours from start to finish. We have a paypal account already for 12th man. This is just a feeler to see if we would have any potential donators out there? we could make about 30foot banner for about £100. including hire of the building. I am sick to death of idiots like Mc Bride slurring Hibs, with no voice from Hibs fans retaliating from the terraces. Lets for once change it. GGTTH. Feedback please. If we go ahead any surplus cash to be used for further display flage. Thanks guys and girls. If we get enough people interested then we will post the paypal account.

If you're going to go to the trouble of producing a banner, it should probably say something a bit more forthright than "We're not sectarian."

How about

Stick your 'OOH AH' up your 'RArse', McBride

Should get a bit of media coverage...

How about something more like

"Football not faith" or "hibs not hooligans" or "Hibernian fc: FOOTBALL is our religion" or "this is Leith, not Glasgow" or "ooh ahh up the HIBS" or "Hibernian not hatred"

I'm running on empty here!

We shouldn't even mention McBride on the banner though, he'd lap it up. Celebrate the club only!

Our club has been slandered by a self-publicising hypocritical ****bucket. We're constantly being fed the myth that sectarianism is "Scotland's shame". It's not. It's restricted to a small part of the country, and essentially focused on the supporters of two clubs. It's nothing to do with us, our club, our team, or our supporters. I have no desire to be part of it, and I have certainly no desire to be co-opted into it by McBride's lies.

The club's response has been weak and feeble. We deserve better than that. They should have demanded an apology and a retraction both from McBride, and from the media who allowed him to make the claim. That's not going to happen.

It seems to me that if there is any point in making a gesture, that it should be a public statement that will attract the same level of attention as the original insult. If it's a public statement, then it has to attract the attention of the public. With the best will in the world, "We're not sectarian" is about as newsworthy as "We're not librarians".

Either we should hit back hard, or we would be better maintaining a dignified silence.

Donation sent.

***Chuck Rhoades*** · 16-11-2011 11:51 AM

We now have people agreed to meet up and get this made in time for Saturday. Possibility of two banners.

Any donations would really help with materials/paints/rent for hall. Thanks again.

Still can't believe the arrogance of that twat McBride!!

If you're going to do it, leave his name off it.

He's the type of media parasite that loves the oxygen of publicity. Make the statement without mentioning him.

***Viva_Palmeiras*** · 16-11-2011 06:49 AM

We're not sectarian

Simple to the point.
Some of the others could be twisted.
I agree No mention of mcbride

I think this is the best slogan by miles - but would drop McBride from it. Would be a great one for the next time Celtc come to ER!!

It has the merit that you can sing it as well:

You can stick your f****** ooh ah up your @rse
You can stick your f****** ooh ah up your @rse
You can stick your f****** ooh ah
Stick your f****** ooh ah
Stick your f****** ooh ah up your @rse

Now I'm away to worship the Egyptian Sun God

**Cabbage East** · 16-11-2011 08:43 AM

We've already released an official statement rubbishing this clown's claims. We don't need to give this guy any more publicity by knocking up a banner and making ourselves look stupid.

So getting the fans point accros on a public level which will no doubt be covered in the media is stupid? Smashing pal makes perfect sense aye

Non sectarian since 1875

Ehm, that could be counter-productive. A good lawyer would be able to disprove that. You'd need to make it 1893.

**mickki40** · 16-11-2011 11:22 AM

Lots of suggestions guys and they are appreciated. Hopefully we will get donators when folks get home from work tonight though, I would love to see a banner, even if it goes to show that we as supporters don't tolerate the Crap than comes out of that guys mouth. He is trying to detract from his own Club. donations please via paypal... hibs12thman@hotmail.co.uk

That's personally what I'd go with

***Viva_Palmeiras*** · 16-11-2011 07:04 AM

Thoughts for another day ...

Hibs - looking forward since 1875
Hibs: older but not stuck in the past
Hibs forward thinking - Celtic just backward

***WellingtonHibby*** · 16-11-2011 07:07 AM

how about "No Surrender!" that should bollox his claims...

Elephant Stone · 16-11-2011 07:07 AM

Don't like "we're not sectarian". We know we're not, everyone knows we're not. "Paul McBride, you're a liar" is more suitable, people seem to think this guy is a credible source of opinion.
