no issue with you wanting to go to an Arsenal - septic match,but why the fuck do you want to wear a Rangers top

found this excellant article over on FF about the Glassy maybe the OP should read and learn Life while following Rangers can be pretty testing. Right now the team are struggling on the park while off the park the regime continue to blunder from one fiasco to another. However, a beacon in these trying times has been the way in which sections of the Rangers support have well and truly covered themselves in glory. As per usual, however, the good deeds done by the Bears has went totally unmentioned by the media who are determined to carry on their campaign of lies, smears and innuendo, based on nothing but blind hatred of the Rangers support. How else do you explain the ignoring of the herculean efforts of some Rangers fans who have now, to date, raised over £50,000 to donate to the hospital at Erskine that looks after disabled ex-servicemen and women? Or of the female Bear who took it upon herself to organise a collection which involved Rangers fans filling up shoeboxes with items that the troops serving in Iraw and Afghanistan would find useful, like soap, shampoo and the like? Their blanking of these issues speaks volumes when you take into account the number of non-stories that are run simply to show the Rangers support in a bad light. Here is a story that anywhere else would have been shouted from the rooftops; but since it would involve the scum of the Scottish press writing something positive about the Rangers support then it is ignored totally. Of course, there is something to be said for the guys involved not wanting praise from filth who hate them anyway but if ever an indicator was needed to show what the fourth estate in this country think of the Rangers support then this is it. They can’t even bring themselves to highlight ordinary men and women going out of their way to help others. On a lighter note, but still in keeping with the notion of how the support is providing a light in the current gloom, it’s been a real pleasure to have made the acquaintance of so many good Bears via the Glaswegian Bar in the past few years. The Glassy, situated right next to Bridge Street underground, has became probably the most conspicuous and well-known Rangers pub in Glasgow since the current owner took it over and it has certainly been at the hub of a lot of projects the Rangers support has undertaken recently, such as being the place where the Sam English Commemoration Committee held their meetings and is the scene for regular Rangers quizzes. What is very notable about the place is the number of different RSCs that use it for a base before and / after the games. Take a trip into it after a home game and you’ll hear accents from virtually every corner of the British Isles. At one point or another this season, Rangers fans from Dublin, Belfast, Portadown, Cardiff, Surrey, Ipswich, the East and West Midlands, various parts of London, Aberdeen, the Orkney Isles, Merseyside, Sheffield and just about everywhere in between, not to mention the many who have been in from all sorts of European cities, have made their presence known by way of songs, banners, polo jerseys or just general banter with the locals. It is very heartening to see that, despite the difficulties we are facing as a Club in general right now, the support is as loyal as it’s always been and people from hundreds of miles away still feel an emotional pull towards Glasgow G51. Maybe those of us who stay closer to Ibrox and can make every game take it for granted at times and it’s always a very welcome experience to meet Bears who can only get to a few games a season but who maintain their enthusiasm for Rangers from afar. Talking to the lads from Orkney, for example, reminds you of what Rangers mean to people who don’t have a connection with Glasgow but still have a passion for Rangers as strong as that of anybody from Scotland’s premier city and slightly beyond. Even when the Club isn’t as we’d like it to be, the fact that so many people still feel as strongly about Rangers is very heartening. A trip to the Glassy can be the perfect way to round off a day at Ibrox no matter where you come from. A visitor can spend ages looking at the marvellous black and white photos on the wall – where else would you see an image of Sir John Ure Primrose or Sammy English, for example? – or looking at the memorabilia donated from RSCs from places as diverse as Dublin, Baku, Brunei, Vietnam and Rutherglen. One thing Glasgow isn’t – thankfully – short of is pubs where Bluenoses can meet likeminded people and discuss all things Rangers. In fact, a couple of pubcrawls of a number of Rangers boozers from Cambuslang to Rutherglen, Bridgeton, Dennistound and the City Centre have been organised via the FF website in recent times. If you like a decent bevvy in the company of fellow Bears it’s something well worth undertaking with your mates. The excellent www.bluenosebars.com website can help you plan your route. But just make sure the Glaswegian forms part of it! If you’ve not been in you won’t be disappointed. Yours in Rangers, AYRSHIRE BILLY BOY

hate to disappoint you and your mate Davie, but Glasgow's premier Rangers pub isn't going to close an appeal has been lodge and both big S and the brewers are quite confident the the neighbours and the local Councillor (Danny Alderslowe of the Scottish Green Party) will be shown up as the liars and sectarian bigots they really are, I'll give you something to take back to your mate, the Union ,Saltire or the Red Hand of Ulster flags aren't sectarian even if the have plastic flowers on them for decoration Another complaint made against the Glaswegian found that traffic noise coming from cars travelling along Bridge Street was greater than the music coming from the Glaswegian how can the neighbours be taken seriously when they complain about a bus parked on the road outside the pub FFS where would you expect the driver to park it I'll pass on you best wishes to the management,staff and real Rangers supporters who've supported the Glaswegian in these stressful few month and I'll raise a glass and wish the Glassy all the very best in years to come..... FUCK YOU, THE NEIGHBOURS AND THE LEFTY TREE HUGGING COUNCILLOR

class song in it's day, but not for todays PC Rangers supporters So a classic song that should be buried because it offends somebody ? Wild guess it offends non pc terrorists murderers and their sympathisers who are allowed to murder Brits at their leisure without repercussion ? don't know and don't care if it offends the unwashed, we've more than enough MOPE within our own support that would be offended by it today

sorry mate, but it was the tune ''Marching through Georgia'' was banned in all forms,allegedly how come how come the song ''No-one likes us'' isn't banned that too contain a certain word i thought that too at one point,not too sure now though.. these so-called fans representatives,how many fans do they actually represent ?

SDM pulls the strings,Murray feels the songs an embarrassment to the club and used BOTH the RST & the RSA to try and convince your average Rangers supporter that it was really UEFA who send a direcitve stating all forms of the tune 'Marching through Georgia' were now banned. as we now know this is total bull,you only have to watch matches played in both the SPL or the EPL to hear supporters blasting it out. someone somewhere's telling porkies,i wonder who.....

I'm also aware of it, Frankie, the Trust, TBO, whoever can say what they want on the issue. The fact that they got together with Murray and came out and urged people not to sing it was a fecking joke! Jim, The fight had already been lost. There was no appeal so we were left with the prospect of being fined (or much worse) by UEFA and perhaps the authorities in Scotland. Although nobody was particularly happy about it, what else could we do? IMHO their never was directive from UEFA, so both the RST & the RSA lied to the supporters because Murray told them too

nothing we haven't already guessed

i'm not his biggest fan but until we get a striker who can bang in goals for fun,we need to keep him

Strabane's worse than Lurgan

class song in it's day, but not for todays PC Rangers supporters

Rangers cannae sign a catholic

agreed 100%

very true,and at the same time he's pulling the strings from the two groups

he always talks pish fair play never listened to him before but tonight am bored the man's quite a character,believe me take yer word on that and should you no be down the ally getting pished naw off it until tomorrow, need to watch the wee yin tonight

he always talks pish fair play never listened to him before but tonight am bored the man's quite a character,believe me

AB..they are all wrong then ? that is thousands of bears. where did i say that ? oh that's right i didn't, i don't give a monkeys for either of them,is that too hard to take in

he always talks pish

''Declan'''s a living legend

except when we're sitting in the Benfica end watching septic seriously though,if you get a slap from any of the unwashed,all i will say is you've deserved it

fair points,but would you wear Rangers gear just to annoy some t****** scumbag

will they still be laughing once some mhank slaps them ? what they going to do then,sit with their eyes closed ? They're going to watch football, not specifically Celtic which people can't see past. No need to be a smart arse, I see both sides to the arguement. why wear Rangers gear then I'd assume for the same reason other supporters do it. In Europe i've seen teams play Celtic and some supporters had Rangers shirts/scarves/flags, and some teams we've played wore Celtic gear, just a bit of a wind up I guess. Personally I doubt i'd do it so I can't tell you for sure mate. aye and i've seen idiots turn up in Europe wearing septic shirts,only to find themselves getting one hell of a beating. they deserved all they got

with a bit of luck,it'll be a private ambulance

will they still be laughing once some mhank slaps them ? what they going to do then,sit with their eyes closed ? They're going to watch football, not specifically Celtic which people can't see past. No need to be a smart arse, I see both sides to the arguement. why wear Rangers gear then
