Morelos Racism

[five stars 1,621]

It's day 8 of the latest anti-Morelos propaganda campaign. 

That's 8 days in a row of media coverage over his harmless gesture to the Rangers technical area.

Compared to Browns elbow - zero coverage.

Christie - had some coverage mainly about him having to be rushed to hospital after a Morelos challenge and more recently by an ex player saying how he shouldn't be punished.

Clancy's pathetic performance - briefly discussed before basically blaming the lack of VAR for his mistakes.

Make no mistake we're a target of mischievous propaganda design to damage our club.

The similarities to Sterling are obvious. These stooges in the press think that they are being clever with their sly wee digs and individually there is little to them but when seen as a whole it is blatantly obvious that Morelos has been under sustained attack for some time. Whether or not that is racism or just an anti Rangers agenda doesn't matter as the fact remains that the lad is being unfairly discriminated against.  

If you dislike Lennon then you are a racist but if you call Morelos a black/orange bastard then it is ignored. These dregs of society have no shame when it comes to pursuing their agenda. Say anything about child rape or racism when celtic are involved and you are demonized as a petty point scorer whilst every comment or action against them is blown out of proportion and given an innuendo that doesn't exist. Just look at the word Fenian, used for years to describe a supporter of a certain terrorist organisation and even used by supporters of said scumbag organisation to describe themselves yet it deemed as racist if anyone else uses it.

Gerrard should do an interview with the English press highlighting these double standards. I would even throw in that it is allowed in part because of a local separatist government's attitude towards what is its biggest opposition group but unfortunately I can't see that angle being taken up.

Their days are numbered with an overrated team, incompetent manager, child rape cover up and a tiredness of their constant antics. The victim card has been overplayed and won't continually be their get out of jail free.

The house of cards is beginning to crumble and it is well overdue. 

Great post mate,maybe the paper should have printed that instead of the Spiers sh*t 🙂

"Racism is just point scoring "

Quite a statement from Mr Speirs.   And it doesn't make sense.  I would expect the average 12 year old to understand that racism does not equate to point scoring, never mind someone whose basic prerequisite of the job is  an understanding of the English language, logical thought and objective viewpoint.

Quite simply read his statement again a few times objectively and see if you can see any logic or justification for it. I certainly cannot.

And the real question I have is how any newspaper editor would allow that statement in to a newspaper which values any kind of logical opinion. 

Racism of any kind is disgusting, and attempting to deflect from it or disguise it with a mistruth is equally disgusting, if not worse. 

 

I think serious questions need to be asked of Mr Speirs about  why he does not understand or has chosen not to understand the basic meaning of the term "racism", never mind the effects.

The agenda from certain elements in the media is becoming irksome and tiresome. That we are at the stage where racism is being thrown about as 'whataboutary ' is a very sad state of affairs for scottish society.

Racism, no matter where it comes from and how many people use the language is wrong and should be investigated and action taken. The fact Spiers tries to excuse it by using the phrase "a few morons spouting garbage" ,shows his ignorance first and foremost. Those "few idiots" then become more and more when no action is taken. 

What Speirs is effectively saying here is that calling someone a fenian bastard is worse than calling them a black b, which is crazy.  Only in Scotland, and only in Scotland would it be brushed off as a bit of banter and at worst "a few morons" so we should ignore them. 

Spiers should be another taken to task for his ridiculous reducing tactics in the paper. Some things go beyond tribalism and he said/she said. Race is one of those things, and every instance should be investigated with action taken, especially with evidence like there is in this case, and Mr Spiers needs to wake up to the fact that we aren't in the tit for tat game, not everything is "blame the other side", and that wrong is wrong.

Very possible it's an article designed to put pressure on the CO to act. As posted earlier the club need to fight like hell if she tries. 

I've also just seen the sun running an article called  "SFA remain silent on Rangers 2011 Uefa licence probe"

No question who's pushing that story again.

[GersInCanada 7,775]

I did not have to read Spiers article to know that it would be an attack. Still don't intend to read it.

Alredo gets dogs abuse simply on account of who he plays for. It's that simple. Some elements of the press will desert the tic 'cause' when it becomes clear that Rangers will win the title. They are that transparent.

But we have to be above that and call out wrongdoing where we see it.

That is very well put mate 👍

Your right only in Scotland would racism be ignored or brushed off under yet again "whataboutary".  A term I'm getting sick of seeing. 

Compare the reaction here to recently down in england following the Spurs-Chelsea game.  No agendas, both english media and clubs immediately condemning the behaviour and calls for actions to be taken to stamp it out.

The first time I really heard "whataboutary" being used was by Tom English, a phrase he keeps using and has become more widely used by our detractors. 

The big difference in England is that they all realise there is a huge issue there and as you say are working together to stamp it out and to give a platform to those abused, rather than the tribalism we see here and a football association that is clearly not for for purpose and is being influenced by the very ones accused.

The prick has made a living all his life ripping into Rangers fans and never kicked a fucking ball.

Wee posh sneaky taig loving bastard.

I agree, Sutton's a cunt but at least he's an open cunt. He does not hide his allegiances and doesn't hide when he's showing bias.

Speirs is a complete and utter cunt, a snake of a man, trying to mask his bias with pathetic wee lies so that he seems more neutral when he couldn't be less.

He's absolute vermin and it really is reflected in the way he goes about business.

Agreed mate, Sutton is a shit stirring cunt but if he didn’t have the job he has you wouldn’t hear from him. 
The bigoted journalist though has went out of his way for years to scream whataboutery when the scum are under attack and put the boot in when it’s us that have stepped out of line.

Agree most of the time with this stance mate, but on this occasion everyone should read this nonsense and rage against it.

Great post mate. 
We haven’t had one person on this forum ever try to play down racism if it’s coming from our stands. You look across the city at what is going on and we get told to stop point scoring.

Thanks mate.

If it comes from our stands, I think we would call it out. This is what happens though when you give free reign and unchallenged access to prize money and authority to one group.

Can’t remember us ever trying to hide any racist cunt in our support. Would personally boot them down PRW myself. As you say this is what happens when their scum support have been covered up for for years they believe they are never wrong.

There is no doubt of this in my mind but what is equally frustrating is the ineptitude of the club in dealing with this in the public eye. An ‘institution’ of our size and status should have the means and capabilities of being on the front foot to deal with this relentless nonsense, a pro active approach should be priority in the protection of the club players and fan base...

If they can create the narrative that calling out of a club for harbouring, enabling and protecting child abuse is as bad as doing it (to the point where it looks as if they may have rewritten history), what chance do accusations of racist chants against a player at a game have of achieving any form of justice...

Took five minutes in the pub whilst also checking out the barmaid's arse 

Which goes to show the so called level of journalism in Scotland. It is blatantly obvious what is going on but we all know that they wont get called out on it.

However I do believe that there will be a search for any behaviour that could be construed as racist by Rangers fans as we all know that the pond life that claim to be journalists will be only too eager to 'point score'. 

I only popped on to post a picture of a horse as well

This is exactly what they do but hopefully this time it blows up in their face.

They can fool some people some of the time but they can't fool all of the people all of the time. Arrogance coupled with desperation will be their undoing.

I just think the fact they've cited any player means the game has been reviewed. Cant think of any other time when days have passed between different citings from the same match.

I think christie will get off with his.

They don't seem to follow any sort of logic when deciding citations and their timings. 

For a double whammy they might drop the citation against Christie then announce a further two game ban for Morelos. Wouldn't surprise me.
