AIBU to think never mind Rory and his heckling of Prince Andrew, Celtic fans have this evening shown just how little love there is for the monarchy in some parts of Scottish society.

Conversely the entire Ibrox stadium singing the national anthem after being warned by UEFA not to.

Sectarianism is alive and well.

Not all Celtic fans are utter dicks. I wouldn't trust the green brigade to make me a cup of tea, much less represent us Celtic fans as a whole. Twats.

Well sectarianism IS alive and well!

Maybe they were hacked off at the Scots being portrayed as living in (and loving) a victorian ideal of rural servitude? This what has been all over the media for days.

The Green Brigade isn't representative of Celtic fans and more than all Rangers fans join the Sectarian Orange Walk.

That said - don't expect everybody to support the existence of the royal family. For many people it's a ridiculous excessive and expensive pantomime that's going on right now - bury the woman with a bit of ceremony, but traipsing a corpse around the country with millions of pounds worth of security personnel, police and armed forces drafted in is bonkers. Now they've shut down some flights, stopped government functioning in an economic crisis, taken over all 'the news' and shut down hospital and doctors appointments! Bonkers.

So refreshing to see open expression of anti-monarchist sentiments, given all the attempts to prevent that over the last few days.
