Rangers Fans And The Scottish National Team...

[DeanMK 4,670]

What has politics got to do with it? I voted but it had literally nothing to do with Rangers so I don't see the correlation?

There's hope for humanity after all!

[bombaybadboy08 15,660]

Putting all the obvious things aside like the SFA and the tartan arseholes, I can't bring myself to cheer for a team captained by Scott Brown and bolstered by cunts like Mulgrew and Forrest.

I find it hypocritical slating them on a weekly basis then giving them my support just because they change jersey.

[Blue Avenger 22,567]

Good for you, I can only imagine your hatred and disgust when the majority of our support sing pro-British songs. It must really get under your skin.

There's other football supporters that these songs get under their skin aswell, they don't support Rangers surprisingly enough.

Said it on another thread. Can't understand why you would go to support a team where the vast majority of the support are belting out pro British and Loyalist tunes that go against their nationalistic values or religious stance. Do they sit their gritting their teeth. Are they hate filled at the majority of the support? Are they bringing their family along to be exposed to values that they are in total opposition too? How the hell can they enjoy the experience? It's no different from a Unionist going to support the scum and being exposed to all that bile. Now why the hell would you?

[TEFTONG 60,108]

Iv'e never forgiven Scotland for breaking my Grandad's heart in 1978..Right after the 0-0 draw with Iran, I witnessed my Hero shedding tears as he had convinced himself and me that Scotland could and would win The World Cup..I was a bit more of an armchair fan when Walter and McLeish were in charge, but the whole sfa (bias and unjust punishments) plus the perhaps wrong personal perception that it's all sheepshaggers and scumdee hibernian tartan trannys that would spend their giro's to follow Scotland I couldn't care less...

International Football as a whole bores me..yeah even the World Cup..So get The Rangers back on the pitch and tell the trannys to put away their tartan skirts...

[K.A.I 36,183]

A fairly high percentage (although not a majority) of Bears I know and work with, people on here as well, voted Yes.

Where the hell do you work? In a Uni?

The online polls get hijacked anyway this website is the most trolled by fans of other clubs - I know for a fact there was fans of other clubs coming on here and voting on our polls regarding the referendum

I don't know why anyone takes an online poll seriously even if it's the result you wanted

The queue would be headed by the full-bloodied boot of Graeme Souness and if that didn't do the job of sterilsing the bitter wee bastards then here comes the rest:

Whittaker and Naismith real Rangers men!! Aye right you are. I think we know who the fandango is.

A Rangers fan trying to ask what politics has to do with football.

I think to be honest most of the younger generation don't really give a fuck about religion or politics anymore - religion doesn't have much relevance to the lives of most now.

[K.A.I 36,183]

I think to be honest most of the younger generation don't really give a fuck about religion or politics anymore - religion doesn't have much relevance to the lives of most now.

Religion yes, politics is as hot as ever. Everyone in Scotland young and old is into politics now.

Being a Loyalist or Unionist is nothing to do with being Protestant in my eyes. When people say Rangers are a Protestant team, I don't agree. Loyalist and Unionist team yes.

[The Dude 20,026]

International football is baws

That's where I am. I'd rather watch domestic football or European games.

[jonnysidparto10 37]

It's an easy one for me. I'm British, born and raised in England. I don't even particularly follow England so have zero affection to the Scottish national team.

Basically I support Stoke City as my local team and Rangers are my national team hence the profile picture of the Loving Cup. Might be strange for some to believe but I hold just as much feeling for both and practically non for international football.

[one55 1,510]

I don't really mind the Scottish national team. I'll watch a game if I can but I won't go out of my way. The last game I watched was the one against England at Wembley where Kenny Miller scored. Didn't watch the one at the piggery though. Fuck that for a laugh. International football is only something I'll watch if it's Scotland vs England or the world cup.

All this shite about the SFA/Tartan Army/Independence Vote/Religion ... doesn't bother me. I don't really like them and I don't really get football mixed up with politics. I'm not religious in the slightest. I'm just for the football. If a games on then aye I'll watch it if I've nothing else to do.

The only team for me is Rangers. That's all that matters to me. As long as I can sit in my seat at Ibrox then I'm happy and don't care much for any other team playing.

[DeanMK 4,670]

I have an interest in politics and am non-religious. Neither of which I believe should have anything to do with sport. Unfortunately it seems there's a few on here who can't see past that and allows it to fuel their hatred.

and more than a few in the Tartan Army ranks too. If you are wanting to be balanced?

[Pure_Quality 3,295]

A Scottish Rangers fan, who doesn't like international football is perfectly within their rights not to support the Scottish national team.

A Scottish Rangers fan, who does like international football, but thinks the SFA isn't fit for purpose and have treated us shabbily, is perfectly within their rights not to support the Scottish national team.

A Scottish Rangers fan, that does like international football but supports another team because of political/religious/incompetent SFA reasons is probably a bit daft.

A Scottish Rangers fan, that does like international football, but actively supports England just because they're Scotland's greatest rivals, is probably a Grade A mental.

Politics shouldnt be anything to do with it but when our club is on the receiving end of political policies aimed specifically at football and unjustly weighted against Rangers fans then I cant see how your opinion stacks up. The powers that be have made it happen and they should reap what they sow. Both the SFA, HMRC and the SNP have targeted Rangers for their own ends. If your choice is to accept living under and supporting those corrupt arsewipes then you really are a lost cause.

As for youngsters not being interested in politics someone hasnt noticed the UBs at games have they?

[Muz333 359]

I dislike the national squad.

Ive never been interested by it, I don't want to support Celtic players regardless of the top they have on, I despise the anti British booing of God Save the Queen and all the anti English mentality of the Tartan Army, I hate the SFA and I don't want to stand shoulder to shoulder with sheep shaggers who would boo any Rangers players in the squad. The same hate filled sheep shaggers that are always spouting anti Rangers bile to me.

All in all Rangers are my one and only team and I only see nationals as a distraction to that and an injury risk to our squad.

Why wouldn't they be anti English? That's their rivals. Should we be pro Celtic?

[centenarystand 2,227]

Looks like the jockosauras's on here are just not getting the message.

[K.A.I 36,183]

Why wouldn't they be anti English? That's their rivals. Should we be pro Celtic?

How are they Scotland's rivals?

They don't compete against each other, they don't go head to head trying to win the same competitions, the hatred is only one-way, the gulf in class is massive.

Nothing like Rangers and Celtic.

I've spent enough time in England and know enough English people who do not think as badly of us as we do of them. They do not see us as a threat or rival in the slightest.

You ask any Englishman who his footballing rivals are they will say Germany.

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,540]

the tartan army do it for me, a bunch of no mark, wee team following wankers that spit their hatred towards our club on a weekly basis then have the brass baws to expect us to stand side by side them on the international stage

nah, they kilt wearing fannies can go fuck themselves, i actually quite like wee strachan as well but i just cannot bring myself to enjoy scotland games because of their majority following

[bombaybadboy08 15,660]

Rivals normally challenge each other for trophies tbf, it's a local derby.

Most of the English people I know want Scotland to do well, contrast that to the losers in this country arranging parties when England get pumped out a major tournament and it starts to become apparent who the sad sacks are.

[folkestoneger 8,135]

Too many people tar the national side with the same brush as the SFA. I don't care if someone does or does not follow the national side, I am a no voting scotsman and I'm proud of that fact. Rangers are my club and always will be.

Rangers are my club and always will be

Scotland is my country and always will be

being a fan of one does not exclude you from supporting the other

[The Beast 9,222]

Well this narrow minded halfwit would like to remind you that you follow a team steeped in Britishness. You don't deserve to follow this club.

Hear hear. Yes voters among the Rangers support are either pretend Rangers fans or hypocrites.

We are the Quintessential British football club. Our Club and fans proudly honour our Queen, our flag and the Union.

Do you guys boo the flag and GSTQ or do you just sit quietly?

Either way GOAT is 100% correct - you don't deserve to be allowed to be Rangers fans.
