Intended to provoke? So what you are saying if Celtic play non Israeli opposition the flags are fine?
Uefa rules forbid the use of “gestures, words, objects or any other means to transmit any message that is not fit for a sports event, particularly messages that are of a political, ideological, religious, offensive or provocative nature”. If you want to provoke and make political statements you'll get fined. So tough luck really. |

Oh I get it now. The star of David isn't seen as political but the Palestinian flag is. You know full well if Celtic was playing a no Israeli side and had Palestinian flags on display UEFA would have still fined them. Please do not pretend that Celtic are being fined because it is against an Israeli team.
It is blatant double standards. Guess UEFA won't dare go upsetting the various Jewish lobbies. |

Ajax has had a strong Jewish connection for over 80 years. Celtic fans were using it to provoke and it was political, so a double whammy. Antisemitism needs rooted out of society and keeping it out the football grounds is a good way to do that, so these fines are welcomed by me and probably most decent folk.
Going by your reckoning, no club should wave flags. So no Union Jack then Frankie? |

Youll be wanting Rangers fans then not to show their Israel flags in Europe then next season.

You and other clubs have been fined for this before, it is banned by UEFA and you keep doing it and get surprised when you get a fine. If you don't like it don't play in their competitions, but don't say you know the rules but don't want them applied to you.

No, because St Johnstone were fined when they played a Slovakian side and Celtic were fined for playing an Icelandic side and Dundalk fined for playing a Croatian side.

Surprised no. Just a group of fans will not bow down to UEFA's ridiculous rules.

I hope they shut your stadium down for all group matches in whatever competition you are in. A clear message against this sort of nasty behaviour has to be sent out.

Your opinion on the tri colour flag used at Celtic? Quote:

Lol of course you do. That's the default opinion for a 'Rangers fan'. Jealousy is an evil trait. |

Anyway, Celtic will not have their stadium closes. We will get a fine. I'm sure Celtic can afford £100k if they get in Champions League. |

There is no point trying rationalise with Franco while he is still attempting to lie with the anti-Semitic claims.

BT turning their mics down doesn't work when there's opposition fans actually there, listening to it. |

Does anyone buy this butter wouldn't melt 'what antisemitism' routine? I mean pull the other one. A fan of yours was all over the papers like a pissing puppy saying 'being gassed' was 'too good' for Nir Bitton:

I'm sure you'll also be calling for the SPFL to shut Ibrox because of the sectarian singing that repeatedly emirates from the The Rangers supporters during league games.

That was for promoting a political ideology. You do understand it can convey more than one thing at a time depending on the context of the scenario?
All national flags are inherently political. |

On countless occasions last week there were songs about being "up to [your] knees in Fenian blood". You can deny it all you like and try to deflect, but it happened and continues to happen. |

Zero tolerance? So it's different than if Rangers wave flags and sing sectarian songs in Europe? If your into zero tolerance then Rangers will be banned as well.

Autocorrect. Same happens when I try and type "Rangers". Changes to "Sevco" unless I tell it otherwise.

Your whataboutery defence is like being up in court on a charge and saying 'but, but my neighbour did something too, years ago!'. Is that going to convince UEFA? It would be quite funny if you raised £150k and UEFA gave you a £150,001 pound fine. I said UEFA wouldn't let the fundraising influence them, but I kind of hope it does.

I guess you'll just have to stop getting so offended then. Either that or don't go to watch your team get massacred by Rangers, your choice.
