Popular Post D'Artagnan 13,319 Posted July 11, 2018 Popular Post Share Posted July 11, 2018 10 hours ago, ForeverAndEver said: All about the celtic You think ? I would suggest otherwise - if the standard defence is that someone brings it upon himself - what hope is there for young lassies on a night out who dare to wear a mini skirt and suffer unwelcome male advances. Is she asking for it ? Furthermore it highlights the considerable double standard celtic are operating to - given the conduct of the likes of Lennon (at both celtic & Hibs) Boruc and more recently Griffiths. The majority of gesture behaviour involving the aforementioned occurs when facing Rangers and has always been the source of considerable debate on here. celtic are atempting to minimise racial conduct by (1) Suggesting a player's own conduct or behaviour was the catalyst to it (2) While offering such a tawdry defence - ignoring the fact their own players regularly involved themselves in similar conduct particularly against Rangers. To be honest, partisan feelings aside, its an absolutely unedifying & scandalous line of defence, I only wish Id read such scathing criticism of it in the MSM rather than from a Rangers fan site blog. thebooler, eejay the dj, minstral and 5 others 8 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

its_an_extender 869 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 7 hours ago, The Dude said: Literally never. I am not a fan of the article itself but I kind of understand what he's getting at. You just need to look at the Hibs SC final and Motherwell Play off game. The board basically curled up in the fetal postion and let other clubs / SFA boot fuck out of us with no meaningful defence of the fans. The VB are good for those kind of situations. They should stay away from writing about the scum, unless it directly involves Rangers though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabc10000 5,060 Posted July 11, 2018 Share Posted July 11, 2018 just read the article. so rodgers is claiming logan brought it upon himself? how the fuck does that even work? end of the day he was racially abused and nothing the player does can change that unless he does a michael jackson and turns black into white. genuinely dont understand why we got fucked at the beginning of the season over sinclair ( iirc was our fan not plastered all over the front pages etc ) and they literally get away with it. presuming their fan(s) have been named and shamed publicaly as well Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I care not a jot about what they do. I do care though what Rangers bloggers etc do though.

Defending Our Traditions is what it says on the VB tin I believe. Cant understand how some Rangers fans are very quick to decry VB articles.

Im not surprised if you place a self-imposed ban on yourself from reading their articles. Perhaps were you to contact the likes of Twaddell and Woodvale Residents Association in Belfast you would alter your opinion. Just because someone doesnt shout from every roof top nor seek publicity for good work - doesnt mean to say they are not active.

I don’t think anyone disagrees that what that smarmy prick Rodgers has said is out of order. I think it would be better received if they made it more factual, and had less of a ‘look how clever we are’ feel. Make it evidence based. Include embedde video clips / images of said incidents and list the response / action from the SFA / SPFL. Or write formally on behalf of a fans group to said parties. This type of article / medium just doesn’t work. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
