Financially not good but we cant go on like this, people going to Ibrox are bad enough for shit atmospheres but now it will be horrendous, the club will start to employ undercover "supporters"... This is a deliberate attempt to put us out of Europe. celtic minded, left wing stance along beside it Aye, lets lose out on millions every year, just so we can sing some songs. Solid plan.

How could that happen seriously? Produce a band songs list even what words cant be sung no gray areas then. TBB isn't sectarian in anyway mate its usually the word after the F word is why it causes "offense" to some Is fenian a bad word?

Lazio shouldn’t get to play in any UEFA competition if a so called 3rd strike for us would apparently lead to expulsion Racism, anti semitism, Nazi salutes, violence. You name a bit of scumbag behaviour and there’s every chance Lazio or another Italian side do it on the regular But we say fenian so that’s totally worse Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craiggybear 6,192 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 So can someone clarify for me.... We're not taking away tickets for the next euro game, is that a voluntary gesture from Rangers or is that the actual UEFA punishment for the 2nd charge? If it's voluntary, whats the actual UEFA punishment going to be this time? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it fails, and it probably will, Ibrox is closed for our next home game after the hearing. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Btw genuine question I thought not myself maybe am mistaken There's always grey areas when it comes to language. If you can't use certain terms, you often replace them with new ones. UEFA find that 'fenian' can be used to refer to catholics so have deemed it sectarian. It's not particularly a bad word, but then I don't feel there's any such thing as a bad word, more the meaning behind the word. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are however not allowed to say the following:- Fenians (especially if you follow it with bastards) Fuck the Pope Taigs Papes Anything else which would be considered by many to be particularly offensive. Its not really that hard to understand to be honest. It’s not hard for you to understand because you have just decide thats what the rules are. The problem is everyone’s interpretation of this will be different so it has to be clear to all and should be clarified by the accusers (uefa/fare). If you don’t know the rules you can’t play by them Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Don81 2,837 Posted August 28, 2019 Share Posted August 28, 2019 They have proof that we sung the songs there is nothing we can do about that now except not sing them. I do feel we should be looking back over their qualifiers and highlighting instances of sectarian singing ( there must be some especially away from home ) , and asking UEFA why there is one rule for us and another for them.
