    In a soccer-related religious note, Head of Referee Development Hugh Dallas has been sacked by the Scottish Football Association after being accused of sending an email which the Catholic Church deemed tasteless. The email contained no text but included an image attachment of a school crossing sign with a silhouette of an adult holding a child's hand and the word "caution", while beneath the road sign were words making reference to the Pope's arrival in Scotland.

    I thought Rangers won the League the last two years, so why does it seem the papists are in charge?

    You'd think there would be other reasons for sacking Hugh Dallas.

    Nah, they're very big on religious hatred up that way. One of their few growth industries, tbh. Unlike down here where nobody gives a shit.

    Well, apart from the Muslim's, obviously. Some of them seem to go in for it in a big way :(

    I'm more afraid of priests than people in muslim garb.

    The part of NJ I live in has the second highest Middle-Eastern population in the U.S. The schools here close for muslim holidays. Although, as far as I can tell, we're not yet under sharia law. Yet.
