Don't try and bother to understand it Mynok - it's all complete b@&£?&@£. Undercover geek was right - this is all to do with the fact that Lennon is Northern Irish and dared to play for Celtic (from the Catholic half of Glasgow) and later to manage the club.
As such he has made enemies in both his home country and in the city where he has given such great service to the club. Cobblers or what? For the record I am an English Protestant, my other half is Catholic (born in England of Southern Irish parents) and my two children are baptised and have taken Communion as Catholics.
But he's north Irish Catholic from what the BBC says. [&:] Oh well...you're right, it's BS of course, but humans are full of that. We've certainly had our share of inane sectarianism over here.
yeah..... essentially hes a protestant managing a catholic team - whos he upset? the catholics or the protestants? who knows
I think it was Vatican II that allowed that Protestants are Christians, too. Whew! Where would we be without Paul VI and good 'ole JP II. Woof!!ORIGINAL: Mynok
He's not a protestant. He's a catholic. http://news.bbc.co.uk/sport2/hi/football/13171598.stm

It shouldn't make any difference, just goes to show the small-minded nature of certain sections of the Rangers and Celtic fans. If he's getting this much hassle just for being Northern Irish, then you can imagine how much he'd be getting if he was Protestant as well.

really? cool. Things are definately looking up for me. Texas was hot enough.
Yeah, well faith and begorrah. I will, however, trade you an acknowledgement that a presbyterian is (somewhat) human, in return for an acknowledgement that the pipes are originally Irish (just watch me duck and cover as AndyMac comes looking for my chitlins). You, being a sassenach yourself, are in a unique position to set things right (not that we would believe you if things didn't go our way).ORIGINAL: Dixie
