Re: What party should we vote for in Scotland?

Date: 3rd June '01

Name: TALMAN

No, the reason that TAL carried an article about 'Sheridhun' was because Tommy played the very sectarian card that you 'defenders of Scotland' are supposedly so vehemently against when he conducted an interview with the Club's in-house magazine The Celtic View and made false claims about having been the victim of a sectarian attack (aged 15) when he "used to be a Celtic supporter". I don't know what game Tommy was playing... maybe he was just out for votes (you know, all those provo-loving, labour-loving "Brit" voters at Parkhead that you hate so much) or maybe Militant were actually being lined up by the powers that be at Celtic to take on the role that cara Henderson and her middle class Nil By Mouth campaign has now filled nicely.

The interview, given in the week of the trial of the killer of one of our teenage supporters, was a sham with 'Sheridhun' playing not only the sectarian card in order to curry favour, but also taking advantage of the dead boy's memory to do it.

I don't think we told anyone to have nothing to do with the SSP... just to be very wary of political opportunists like Sheridan.

So no merit in TAL's support for the SSP at the coming election? You really are trying to break Celtic fans from sectarianism and labourism, aren't you?

Like, how?
