  1. Ooh. Which part? Was it the 2012 question? What have I got to be paranoid about? I live and work in Oman. I am an atheist. I have no bitterness because a fenian took my job or a religion persecuted my beliefs. I am concerned that Rangers Football Club and our fans continue to be treated unfairly and to a different standard than anyone else. It is very well documented over the course of a decade how this is true. But there is enough evidence in the last 3 days that should be sufficient for the hard of thinking. Your stance is the media is equally shit to all. This is utter drivel. I agree they are shit. They just are shit with a specific bias because it easier to be shit when the institution taking that shit doesn’t push back. Dignified silence means easy pickings. “ what will sell papers and generates click bait ?” “Let’s have a go at the fenians. Nah they go mental, I like ma windaes as they ur. Let’s stick to the H*** coz they just let us have a free go.”
  2. I recall when the site openly welcomed celtic supporters. All in an open forum. It was very different then but we still have a “laugh at celtic” thread it’s just rightly in general sports now. I would even do away with that thread but that’s just a personal view. What I also recall was while we laughed at their paranoia we allowed their conspiracy’s, which we naively dismissed as ludicrous, to become more and more mainstream to the point where they were accepted as truths. A lie told often enough. We laughed as they coined referees and hired private investigators. We ignored them as they hunted good people out of jobs. Those crazy fenians and their window smashing eh jolly jaipsters all the while we laughed at their paranoia until drip drip drip over time their narrative of big bad unionist loyalist proddy’s became accepted. I am not going to list all the ways which this has manifested itself. But there can be no more glaring an example as the treatment of Rangers in 2012. Unprecedented in world football. Give me one other example of how our own FA has tried to kill us, stolen money from us, and endeavoured to isolate our club and our support. I say this as an expat of 18 years. As an outsider looking in. As someone who follows through technology. Maybe in the pubs and in the offline world it looks different but following the affairs in Scotland from afar it’s very apparent what has happened
  3. BP9 you have been a regular on here for the whole time I have been a member which is a long time i have occasionally agreed with you, more often disagreed but usually accepted that you have different views. Sometimes I just think you are nothing but a wind up merchant. Your position on paranoid Rangers fans is just one of those things I cannot fathom. It reminds me a lot of climate change deniers or flat earthers. Steadfast refusal to acknowledge the massive evidence presented and dismissive of anything that opposes your view If, after all this time, you cannot see that Rangers and our fans are treated very very differently from celtic and their fans then you simply are choosing to ignore the facts.
  4. I get that this is a pisstake but I really hope Morelos is gone in the summer. Moody prick. Its the midfield that’s been baffling me. We have 12 midfielders and lots who have only recently been signed. Mark Allen is going to be the busiest man of the summer trying to offload all our deadwood
  5. Drama or not. I can’t be happy about us signing this prick and hearing him talk about doing everything he can to help the club. 6 years too fucking late for that ya rocket. However he is here now and as pissed off as a load of us are. What to do except hope he helps us win the league.
  6. Do all the conspiracy deniers read an article like this and think to themselves “what agenda?” And “let’s not act like taigs by claiming conspiracy everywhere.” lets not be paranoid eh? This is a perfectly reasonable, balanced and well researched story that serves the interests of the public and reflects parity of reporting on all such abuses. Questions at Holyrood? There ducking should be, like how the fuck does the BBC justify this blatant misrepresentation
  7. I agree Scotland is fucked. But it’s fucked because we let it be fucked. We need to stand up and fix it because where else are you going to go live? It’s our fucking country. Vote them out. Get jobs in positions of power encourage your friends and kids to get positions of power. Imagine if 40 thousand Rangers fans bought tickets to Scotland and prevent all the tartan trannies from attending. Fuck them. We re the power. We just relinquish it.
  8. I see it differently. I see it that we should take it back. We are the majority. We are the daddy. Fuck the diddy teams and their parochial hatred of the big club. We need to fight back and take back control. Decades of disengaging and letting others dictate to us is the problem.
  9. Sounds like dugs barking at caravans to me. Fuck them.
  10. Needs to be some orange thrown in though. So maybe split into thirds?
  11. Cunts would argue in an empty hoose honest to fuck.
  12. Vast majority of Rangers fans struggle to find a fuck to give. However the narrative will be created that we are all, to a man, outraged. the caracature of the Rangers fan painted by our detractors is that we are outrageous knuckle dragging bigots who despise MOH because he belongs to an outdated cult when the reality is we dislike MOH because he is a cock socket who pours utter disdain on us at every opportunity. One of the ones Jimmy Nichol was referring to when he said the players took the supporters for granted.
  13. There were 8 league games where we kept a clean sheet and scored 2 or more goals. But I think they were just presenting an interesting hypothetical choice to highlight how bad our defending was. Most people would take a guaranteed 2 goals scored versus a guaranteed clean sheet. The presumption being that if you are guaranteed to score 2 you will win more often than if you are guaranteed a clean sheet but our poor defense actually meant that even when we scored two the opposition also scored more and we either drew or lost. Its nothing more than a quirky way of saying our defense was our problem which no one needed stats to tell them
  14. Very good article. Which highlights that we have lost far more goals down the left side than down the right. And more from the middle than the wings. So actually the commonly held belief that Tav is a major liability seems not to be borne out in stats. Damn stats.
  15. I would love to see @julescotia bringing his video making skills into focus on the poor calls this season. A video montage of the bad calls and shocking challenges would be very interesting.
  16. I agree with this. There has been a damage done to the sub-conscious of the referees that causes them to treat Rangers differently. They have been conditioned to be harsher on us than on our opponents. Its years of complaining that too many decision went in our favour. It is particularly evident in referees who identify as "Rangers-minded" they go to particularly long lengths to ensure that they are not accused of giving us anything. Dallas Junior likely suffers from his dad having been seen to give us margin calls so he is laying it out that he is not his fathers son and he will treat us more equally than others. Its not outright cheating but it is biased
  17. Is he a Steve Davis type of player. Or what can he be compared to?
  18. 3 of them are in contract so we need buyers. They won’t go happily. The other I think we will sign
  19. Like others I am more interested in signing some fucking outstanding Center half’s rather than another vanilla midfielder. Sorry if that sounds harsh but we seem to be collecting midfielders. Arfield. Jack. Docherty. Rossiter. Holt. McCrorie. Pena ( no laughing at the back). Murphy. Candeias. Halliday. Doubtless most of these are leaving but we still need to make that exodus happen and we are likely to be stuck with a few. Mark Allen seems to have a thing for midfielders.
  20. Yeah agreed. I retract the combination. But I guess my point was that they both game from premiership clubs and we had high hopes they would run riot in Scotland and once again we were disappointed. Murphy has done much better than Dorrans but I am just not convinced that he is significantly better than the likes of Jones at Kilmarnock but at a much higher rate
  21. So is Arfield a good signing? Or will he be another Dorrans/Murphy type?
  22. Agree with this. He is a loser. He is a pussy. He was near in tears in some post match interviews. We don’t need new age metrosexual nice guys in touch with their emotions coaching our youth teams. We need winners and leaders.
  23. But why is there so much denial about this? It’s this denial or refusal to acknowledge that leads to dignified silence and an ever worsening situation. There needs to be acknowledgement of the problem and pushback. People need to get more politically active and savvy
  24. While I agree with your overall point, finishing second was in our control when he took over. Two wins in our last two games would have secured second. He couldn’t do much but I do like the way he handled himself in a difficult situation. Wish him well but don’t agree that he should stick around the club. Gerrard needs his own men around the first team.
  25. Is it not? dont the GCC favour all things celtic? Wasnt the Offensive Behaviour at football act aimed at Rangers? Didn’t Glasgow vote for independence from rUK? Isn’t Glasgow run by SNP and labour MPs who all have leanings towards the scum? Worse still didn’t we, the biggest football club in Scotland get screwed over and chucked down to the bottom league by a bunch of businessman, banks and a nefarious Inland Revenue Because that’s what it looks like from afar and while Glasgow might have a higher population of PUL, the dignified silence is leading to marginalisation of that majority which manifests itself in very real ways I don’t live there so maybe I am wrong and the reality is different from the perception given by the headlines
