Quote: Militant Protestant supporters of a Scottish soccer team beat to death a Roman Catholic man in the latest sign of how sports rivalries inspire sectarian bloodshed in Northern Ireland, police and politicians said Monday.
Witnesses said more than 20 Protestant supporters of Glasgow Rangers, many of them wearing the team's blue-and-white jerseys and scarves, drove into a Catholic district of the town of Coleraine after Rangers clinched the Scottish Premier League championship Sunday. Billy Leonard, a former policeman and politician from the Irish nationalist party Sinn Fein, said several carloads of anti-Catholic extremists came armed with clubs "and literally attacked the first person they came across." Kevin McDaid, 49, was fatally bludgeoned while his wife, Evelyn, and a 46-year-old Catholic neighbor, Damien Fleming, were both injured. Fleming was reported in critical condition. Police said they arrested six men on suspicion of involvement in the attack. Go Celtic Bulgaria is our faith, Levski is our Freedom |

Fuck Rangers. Also, see what religion does? This was largely religiously motivated. I think the time for all this has passed.
Go Celtic!

Go Celtic! Its not religiously motivated, if we were all non-religious, they'd find another pointless excuse to do this type of pointless brawling The RA have lost there way as much as every single Unionist has, they don't fight for any reason except to fight, You could tell this was happening when the RA put a bomb inside a few pubs in England back in the 80's... ...Like that would every get you liberation Every now and again something like this happens, but we have moved on at this stage |
