Seen before. Don't blame them either, she put the final nail in the coffin for Britain as a power of any consequence and created a huge, destructive rift in British society. History in the long term will not remember her kindly...

I think the crowd has several motivations behind hating Thatcher.  And given your posting history I don't think you would agree with the fans' other reasons to despise Maggie.

The poll tax? The decimation of manufacturing? Privatization? The use of the police as a political force?

No, it is a Celtic FC ultra.  Some among the crowd would not be particularly happy with Thatcher's policies in Northern Ireland.
