ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 RANGERS chief Charles Green revealed the team could wear ORANGE strips.The Ibrox supremo would not rule out the controversial choice at a talk-in with supporters in Belfast.When asked if the club would consider an orange kit, he is reported to have said: "Yes, they have a number of designs and are coming near agreement with Adidas."A source for the Glasgow giants said: "We are not closing the door on any options."Gers supporters wore orange Holland shirts for the Scottish Cup Final in 2000, in honour of Dutch manager Dick Advocaat.Two years later the club launched a tangerine away strip and in 2005 they put a range of orange gear on sale — but they faced accusations of fuelling bigotry by adopting the colour.Only in Scotland. Thankfully Green will not listen to these bigots the way Murray did. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheBluebells 6,898 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Be daft not to consider this, the financial benefits would speak for themselves, also, some of the designs people made up for the current strip in orange looked brilliant so no doubt an Adidas one would too.Hardly surprising to see some kind of negative spin on it though Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BLUEDIGNITY 33,610 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 This is our country, we wear the colours that are traditionally and historically linked to our Club and Orange happens to be one of them. Thousands upon thousands of Orangemen and Women the World over support The Rangers and always have done. So why do the Club have to explain that to anybody, especially to anti British bigots who we welcomed with open arms when things were tough for them only for them to repay us by turning on us like rabid dogs when the situation suited them. We will fly the Union flag when it suits us, we will fly the St Andrews cross when it suits us, we will fly the Red Hand when it suits us. And if declan doesn't like it there isn't a wall around this country keeping him in ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thermopylae 15,286 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 Setic don't even use the flag of a foreign nation because the flag of the ROI is green white and ORANGE ... they use gold instead of orange because it represents the vatican and is therefore deeply sectarian Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Orange is a deeply significant colour in British history because it represents the monarch consenting to rule with parliament ... indeed many of the countries that people most want to live in across the globe like Canada, the US, Australia and New Zealand owe their parliamentary democracy to this event Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geronimoo 1,474 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 We should have an Orange strip, play with 2 strikers 1 can have the number 16 with the other having 90. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
macranger 296 Posted September 30, 2012 Share Posted September 30, 2012 The thing that annoys me about all this is they can do what they want i.e. the famine badge, celtic cross (nowt to do with their official badge) but as soon as we do anything, we're bigots. The orange order used to have massive gatherings at ibrox, until Murray put a stop to it, also our ulster connections, so why can't we celebrate our history. We should go for it. If they say anything about it fk them. Where does green (the colour) have anything to do with Scottish football? But they get away with it all the time & the main reason is because we sit back & let them. Fed up with reading things like "we're not like them" or "don't complain, we're better than that". We should get into them, look where we are now & part of it is cause we've rolled over & said nowt. Get an orange top out & show them we'll do what we want. Remember, the republic flag is green, white & ORANGE (NOT gold). The white was supposed to signify peace between the green (tims) & orange (prods).
