Its nothing new to be honest I was surprised it made the papers but its a good bit of publicity for the people who are involved, am sure theirs a few on osti had a hand in writing this ?

'The Motherwell SS were named in tribute to Hitler’s ruthless Schutzstaffel squad, who carried out some of the worst atrocities of World War II.'

who comes up with this shit? fucking no mark journos who haven't a fucking clue.

What do the expect to happen? A bunch of 'lads' doing the red hand salute at a football ground, of course people would assume they're doing a nazi salute.

Green street says it all "fuckin journos"

Lazy journalism in my opinion Rhys.

[But to be fair, what do you expect doing that salute tho?

I agree with you but it's not exactly a clever 'pose' is it? Someone was always going to put 2 and 2 together and get 18.

They're not real football supporters they're just muggy little cunts

You're right, my beef isn't even with the picture, just the stupid, silly reporting accompanying it. I have no opinion, good or bad, on Motherwell or their lads, other than that the people associated with the book are highly respected and come across as sound, decent blokes. They don't deserve a) a few mongs making whatever type of salute/gesture and (if that was my mates they would be told in no uncertain terms to cop the fuck on) and b) the lazy, demonisation of themselves and their book by the Daily Record

Being a journalist in Scotland must be an horrendous job, they've got to publish humorous articles to brighten things up abit.

Like a gathering of Primark models.

Already been a casualty regarding the pic - one of the lads making 'the' salute has been suspended from his job til after Xmas. That's the danger of social media, 24 hour media etc. Thank fuck I'm not on facebook. Hope the Daily Record is proud.

its ok its only a red hand salute not a nazi salute, no problem then.....

I don't know what goes through their heads. Throw up Nazi salutes but then when you question them about the hypocrisy of it they claim that it's a red hand.

I've witnessed on more than one occasion someone making a nazi salute while someone else a couple of seats away waves a union flag, it's mental.



Think this lad is doing the red hand salute straight from his shoulder

Don't the lads on Osti do this as their forum salute ?

Always thought it was a bit strange not surprising though its a bit like reading mein kampf over there sometimes.

I think it's just a minority, but they're a fairly vocal minority!

Any more photos of this comical bunch?
