So John Wilson got away with it because they couldn't prove he called Lennon a ''fenian bastard''. The head of Hearts security 'heard' him say it. But still not guilty. Obviously he still should have got done for assault etc................ But, at a time when the Scottish Government are trying to push new anti-sectarian laws, this has to be a verdict they don't need? ''haw, u called um a fenian'' ''naw a didny'' ''ehhh well a heard ye'' ''naw ye didny'' Innocent until proven guilty. And the Jury wouldn't even take the word of the head of security. The first old firm game on the 18th will be interesting.
I think the head of security just wanted his 15 minutes of fame. I hope this verdict doesnt encourage more attacks on lennon...
I think it will mate, I've already heard 2 seperate guys saying that because this guy got away with it, that they are going to have a go at Lennon. They must be Anti-Irish Catholic racists, you know, they are everywhere these days, Glasgow is worse than Belfast now (© MalteseMick) (PM me if you have managed to get a hold of some peacebricks )
he got away with it because of all this celtic sectarian rubbish. the bit where scots law now says if you are not a catholic and you don't support celtic then you're breaking the law. the guy was charged with "assault and breach of the peace, both of which were aggravated by religious prejudice." because they are desperate up there to charge somebody with hating celtic, they are now going to add that prejudice bit to everything. as it was, that was what got the guy off. even though he admitted trying to attack lennon, they couldn't prove that it had anything to do with religious prejudice. no matter how many bigoted celtic fans think that everything in life is done out of religious hatred.
It wasn't aimed at you. It was aimed at George and Lennie up there. (EDGE being George and Trevor being Lennie of course).
Weren't you complaining about Rangers fans being on the Celtic board all the time? You're never off here.
Medro ya bawbag, if you look above, you'll see this has also been posted on the Celtic board. You've gotta look at things first buddy before you make us Rangers fans look like monumental spastics
