Blumhoilann 6,712 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Let's all just sit quietly and clap our hands if we see something good on the pitch,ffs. To me ALL Rangers fans are good decent ppl or maybe we will now need some sort of worthiness certificate to attend matches. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds_Bear 8,107 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 It’s not about what you think is right or wrong - we know they are on the look out for these songs so we’ve only ourselves to blame.

This cannot be spun any other way. Fenian is not a derogatory word. It is a descriptive word they use to describe themselves. By all means let’s cut out the naughty songs but then get every other support on a level playing Field. I am offended by Orc, I am offended by H**, I am offended by orange bastard, I am offended by any word that is followed by bastard in fact. So once every single football club stops singing any song with those words in them then it will be balanced It is when you add bastard or blood.

Howsitgoing 4,281 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 https://www.uefa.com/insideuefa/disciplinary/index.html Looking at the dates of the others it probably wasn’t held back etc. Also what we’ve received looks the minimum punishment, fines seem to always accompany partial stadium closures. They’ve probably increased the punishments from previous seasons. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Burts91 427 Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 7 minutes ago, SeparateEntityMyArse said: Rangers has been ordered by UEFA to close a section of Ibrox Stadium for the return leg of the club’s Europa League play-off tie against Legia Warsaw on Thursday, August 29. UEFA has ruled that a group of Rangers supporters were guilty of racist behaviour – which includes sectarian singing – during the match against St Joseph’s at Ibrox on July 18. Our supporters have been asked repeatedly by the Club to refrain from indulging in this, and other forms of unacceptable behaviour. Sadly, the warnings have fallen on deaf ears and the actions of this minority will cause the Club and the majority of good and decent Rangers supporters to pay a heavy penalty. UEFA has ruled that a section, or sections containing no fewer than 3000 seats must be shut off during the club’s next European match, which is the home match against Legia Warsaw. The area, or areas to be closed will be announced in due course and the Club will do its best to restrict the impact to offending supporters. Unfortunately a significant number of supporters, innocent of any wrong doing, will be unable to attend next week’s match. This is deeply regrettable to all at the Club and we hope that the guilty parties, who attracted the attention of UEFA might reflect on the damage their unacceptable behaviour is causing Rangers and their fellow supporters. If any individual supporter is unable to behave in a civilised manner then please stay away from Ibrox and our Club. You are harming Rangers and that is something a genuine supporter would never wish to do. Rangers chairman Dave King stated: “Rangers is a club open to all and we will continue to convey this message at every opportunity through our Everyone Anyone initiative. “Rangers has players and supporters from many religions, cultures and backgrounds but we are one and the same when we gather to support our club. If any supporter cannot accept that then Rangers is not the club for them”. From Rangers website. Thanks mate.

Bastards. Excellent point mate. I have no doubt there are dark forces at work. I am totally disgusted at the club's response, but unsurprised, such has been their MO since the current board taking power. Ibrox will still be rocking and we will still secure a victory.
