I don't like the way the poppy has been politicised though - and in the hands of Rangers FC, I'm afraid today's symbolism owes as much to politics as it does to remembrance.
As an aside, and with much less fanfare, Celtic FC foundation will make its annual donation of £10,000 to the Scottish poppy appeal.

Why especially the conscripts? Are there certain levels of dying for your country and freedom?
Why has the poppy been politicised? Rangers fans are proud of being British (as are the big majority of Scots). This is not symbolism by Rangers fans as they always are supportive of British troops.
I cannot believe someone actually believes that Remembrance and the poppy is anything other than the country coming together to honour and remember the brave men and women who gave their lives so we could live in freedom. Politics has nothing to do with it, nor should it.
Celtic only give money (if they do) to try to appease the rest of Scotland and stop even more people hating them. It is also kept quiet so not to upset their own supporters, who no doubt would prefer it spent on funding terrorism and paedophile compensation payments for their priests. Celtic fans are despicable and are rightly hated throughout Scotland.
