Does everyone know Aberdeen fans have all sorts of shit planned for sunday

minute's applause on the 12 minute (relating to 2012 of course when we went into liquidation)

and all other sorts of banners etc

Cheeky Dons fans are planning to applaud Rangers FC in the 12th minute of Sunday’s game in a nod to the year that the ‘old’ club folded.

Posters have been put up around Aberdeen and are circulating on social media urging the Dandies supporters to sarcastically commemorate the 2012 “passing of the club formerly known as Rangers”.

This Sunday’s game marks the first time the two teams have met since Rangers rejoined the top flight premiership.

The Glasgow based club was liquidated at the end of the 2011/12 season and its assets were handed over to a new company – Sevco – which was later renamed Rangers Football Club and was relegated to the lower leagues.

The taunting posters, which reads ‘RIP Rangers 1872 – 2012″, come amid fears over serious tensions between fans ahead of the premiership clash.

Police have already warned supporters that extra resources will be deployed at Pittodrie as more than 20,000 people are expected to attend the match.

Dog handlers and mounted officers are expected to police the game.

But tensions were already flaring yesterday as the controversial posters appeared in the city centre and were shared online hundreds of times on social media.

One poster that was photographed in the Castlegate area of the city was torn down in a matter of hours as fans exchanged bitter comments over Twitter and on football forums.

The contentious poster states: “To mark the arrival of ‘Rangers’ to Pittodrie for the first time we’d like to ‘commemorate’ the passing of the club formerly known as Rangers.

“We would encourage all Aberdeen fans to arrive early to Pittodrie and you are asked to applaud enthusiastically on the 12th minute in memory of Rangers.

“Rangers, you are with the angels now…

“The name of Rangers we used to abhor, but joyously, you’re not Rangers any more.”

Another "Sevco are deed" stunt? Wow never seen anything like this before I'm quite frankly shocked.. maybe them clapping on the 12th minute might ACTUALLY mean Fifa and Uefa are wrong and we're not the same club!!!?? Funny how they'll fill there stadium for us zombies on Sunday though. Hypocrites with a touch of sheep shagging on the side.

Their 1903 merger or 3 clubs is equivalent to 113years; that they've had 5 years of success.

Rangers FC established 1872 - has had 144years of success and full stadiums, and never touched a sheep, and have never had a player that's destroyed a top Scotland players career or made themselves out to be anything else - but WATP.

The best bit is, if we are dead, give us 5 years and there's a chance "eh noo Ranjurs" will still have won more titles Aberdeen ... that would be the "deed" and the "noo" Rangers with only a few years history both being more successful than Aberdeen :lol:
