And anyone arrested for singing just needs to claim they had no idea what the words meant, it worked for the taig singing the IRA song, who was up in court the other week.

there'sonlyoneamoruso 1,724 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Niko appears to being giving the message the contempt it deserves. As others have said, this is the club covering themselves for any "bad" behaviour from our fans at the weekend. Load of bull if you ask me. We shouldn't be ashamed of who we are or our traditions. Sing loud, sing proud! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 I'd love to see a police officer even attempt to say they know 100% that judging from my lip movement I said something 'offensive' cause how else are they going to prove it? By picking your voice out of 20k other fans singing the same thing? Any lawyer worth their salt would have the charges dropped within one hearing Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gooseman 889 Posted October 18, 2016 Share Posted October 18, 2016 Not that long ago it was a criminal offence to be gay, eventually the law was changed to allow people the right to choose their sexual persuasion. Not that long ago it was accepted that term like faggot, n***er, paki, chinky, spik were common. Society changed and it is no long accepted to say these things. I don't really care who sings what, as it doesn't have any effect on me, but society does. Modern Society is full of ball washing sycophantic arseholes, that take offence to everything, singing songs these cunts don't like and taking smoke bombs and flares to the does not paint us in a good light.... Can people not see that? We don't need to make problems for ourselves when there are people out there only too happy to pedal bullshit as fact about us.

It's only just recently I've actually started thinking about it and reckon it's time we tried to move forward especially with improving our brand and bringing new fans and families back to support Rangers. 1 Where to start with this. First, okay Dylan won a Nobel prize but don't you get carried away. Secondly if the songs and the singers of these 'unacceptable songs' of which you speak are to disappear it will because that is what the majority of fans decide. They will not vanish because of some ill-conceived legislation, or because of plod or the snp, not because of some wee leftie faggot like Speirs pushing their agenda and certainly not because of some tarrier bastard phoning all and sundry to complain. Like FTP which I admit to shouting/singing/chanting more that once, like FTP it will vanish when the fans decide the song or whatever is no longer part of the repertoire. FTP, compared to the 'old days' is hardly heard now which IMO is good. As for bringing 'new fans', I'm quite happy with the ones we have and our ST books are almost all sold out. You suggest moving forward the club and fans have capitulated to social demands and to the demands of the media and we have gained nothing in return. We as a group continue to be dehumanized every step of the way both by opposition fans and in the media. Every day in Scottish newspapers there is a negative story about Rangers and Rangers fans, it s the new norm. After being pushed around spat on and shat-on for the past four years, perhaps we need to draw a line in the sand, has to be better than building bridges.

You're living in the past m8 ?,police Scotland are telling us as long as we sing our songs in large numbers then we're OK as they don't want any hassle at games. They prefer to pick on the solo singers so altogether now. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Times may well be achanging but Tims most certainly are not!They have constantly been given a green brigade light to sing whatever they please without fear of punishment. Our songbook is our heritage no matter what anyone tries to say and in no other country in the world would fans change this.Like mentioned in other posts you only have to watch and listen to any game outwith these shores to be aware of that and within these shores it only seems to me it's our songs that are targeted. Sing loud,sing proud and gives the lads the support they need this weekend because sure as Hell the other side of Hampden will be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
