Think back to the 'sell out Saturday' campaign. in a sense you can expect such animosity. Fans are all about emotions - just analyse some comments on here lately ? - obviously there are fans from 2-3 clubs who really are in campaign mode right now. And of course there are certain media figures scrot, Speirs, Thompson who are on the payroll but it's the directors at clubs like motherwell, Kilmarnock, st Johnstone, Ross County that have to stand up and put an end to all this nonsense. They have to publically back the SFA and put this fire out This argument is fuelled by pure and utter hatred (just consider the clubs and media figures) and it has to be put to bed. This exactly. Its already out of hand and disgraceful how its allowed to grow arms and legs unchallenged. The loser is Scottish Football itself but these bitter people cant see the wood for the trees.

Ger the claws out and remind everyone in Scottish football ,what we have done for this poxy little nation in the last 100 years The scum have being bigging up their club at every opportunity .They will always do this no matter how much lies ,no matter how much bullshit .They will continue to be lying scumbags to themselves and the watching world . To be fair to them .Why change your habits of a lifetime .It's what they do best .They have seized the upper hand these last 6 years and I don't expect to ever change back in my lifetime . If this club do not start defending us ,in the manner ,our great support deserve .If we somehow manage to lose our trophies I for one ,would have every one of them lynched from the highest roof . On a softer note .I would fall out of love with watching Scottish football .It would have become a farce on my eyes if this came to pass The same board more or less that got us into this mess defending what we we achieved on the park and trying to get us out of another mess You just couldn't make this shite up Sadly it has fuck all to do with actual football on the park Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why should our fans prop up the teams that forced us down the leagues. Im with this guy, boycott away games and let them understand the value of the blue pound when they don't receive it. The only thing they understand is money or the lack of money. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We have to let these pricks know that if it wasn't for us they wouldn't have the TV near there pish ground either. The telly are only interested when its us or the soap dodgers that play them.

The idea is not what the media think (we know what they think) but is to hurt these Diddy teams in the pocket that think they can play games with us and want to run about with Liewell and his cronies.

Swagger 7,889 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 I'm interested in Rangers and Rangers only. I detest every other aspect of football in this country and have even been put off the national team - couldn't care less whether they win lose or draw. Add the SNP to the mix and it's definitely not the country it used to be. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
giffnockger 4,840 Posted July 10, 2017 Share Posted July 10, 2017 As much as I don't like the other 'teams' in our league, would never boycott a Rangers game! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The only thing they understand is money or the lack of money. Been saying this for years as long as it is club led. Our away fans make little difference to how our team plays as results have borne out. Take away the blue pound and their budget will be weakened considerably and will serve to remind them the folly of biting the hand that feeds and should also help bring them back into line. At the same time as the biggest club in Scotland we should also be demanding representation on all of the football boards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
