Celtic game - strict security measures announced (page 34)

[Ban-jani]

Quit tarring a whole nation with the one brush, it's childish nonsense.

Its quite clearly a general statement for fuck sake. I've very good friends who I have banter with from Ireland, Scotland and Wales.

I know not everyone hates the English from those three nations, it's a generalism that they dislike us more than we dislike each of them.

Stop getting so offended and grow up.

There's very little hate at all, take some of your own advice

In your personal experience.

The entire SNP is founded upon a dislike of England and British politics.

I lived in Scotland (Glasgow & Edinburgh) for nearly 30 years with an English partner and also have some relatives born in England. You are always going to get idiots, but the VAST majority of Scots have absolutely no issue with the English. None of us ever got any hassle, even when travelling to the Highlands, or some rougher parts of the country. Got more hassle in France!

Anyway, I'm looking forward to this game.

It's nothing that I've come that would suggest it would come to violence but their dislike of the English is certainly strong than our dislike of the Welsh.

The Scottish and Irish even more so.

There's been latent racism towards the Welsh for years. I've experienced it myself and recall some of the comments made at Mark Hughes and his team. Heard nothing about Stuart Pearce being from London or Joe Royle being a Scouser in comparison.

Picking on Wales for just being Wales has happened for years.

It's not racism. They're exactly the same race as us.

We'll have to agree to disagree that I think it's more from them to us than the other way around.

English people put down the Welsh but I think the Welsh dislike us more.

Did you see Wales celebrate England getting knocked out of the Euros Jim. I've heard Welsh RU fans giving us English dogs abuse after a game, even though you lot were playing Ireland lol. It's no big deal.

 

[Shaelumstash]

Lot's of shit on here, and I can't be done with the 'I don't like the Welsh, French or double bloody dutch' for all I care.

You take people as you find them.

I've been all over the world, and peeps are universally friendly and welcoming, as I am when I meet visitors to our city.

Some keyboard warriors ought to get out more and experience the real world we live in.

Jeez, a country with how many million people living in it, and they don't like a single, solitary person living there?

Do me a favour.

Totally agree mate. It's usually the closested Lancastrian Brexiteers who don't know any foreigners who hate them the most, because they don't know any.

Or those whose grandad was in the forces so it makes them feel important and they can just casually insult whole countries or races because they think it's their birth-right.

Racism, xenophobia, predjuice against any country is borne of ignorance and misinformation. It doesn't stand up to intellectual scrutiny. It's just ignorance fuelled by a closeted upbringing.

I've lived and worked in England for 36 years and I cheered as loud as anyone when Iceland knocked England out. It doesn't mean I hate English people, far from it. England are Scotland's closest and oldest rivals and nobody wants to see their closest ( sporting ) rival do well. I hate the man united but I don't hate any individual just because they are rags.

I've lived in Scotland for 28 years went through school up here. Trust me there is hate for England in Scotland it's passed down from parent to child that the English are the worst people in the world.
