You knew it before, you knew when it was sung & you know now. Not sure how any one can complain, folk obviously value signing a song above their supposed live of the club. That's thete choice but these are the consequences, either accept it or stop it. Yup Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

rabc10000 5,061 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”. How does that stand if the games a sellout Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And that's where we should take our fight, that term. It's not illegal unless followed by profanity under our current law. The term isnt a racist or sectarian term. A group of supporters at our main competitor publicly call themselves a fenian army which causes no sporting or policing intervention. If we had balls we'd take this to CAS, but we've got fucking yellow streaked appeasers running us and similar supporters backing them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point needs to be driven home that FENIAN does not men RC,it is a name of a former terrorist group but hey,don't stand up for the truth,lay down and be trampled over.
