  1. Aye but you want it banned because its a boring dirge not because it glorifies battles or people from hundreds of years ago. I want to know why songs about King Billy are deemed Sectarian. An army tried to invade a city and a leader rallied the troops and defied that army. Just because the invading army happened to be backed by the Vatican doesn't make commemorating the defense of the city a hate crime. I don't get bent out of shape over the English singing about crushing a Scottish rebellion or the fucking Yanks singing about Lexington and Concord. Meanwhile across the city they allow a section of their support into the ground with banners that reference a terrorist organisation (that killed Protestants and Catholics btw) a fucken terrorist organisation that absolutely 100% for a fact collaborated with the Nazi's. As far as I'm concerned their support might as well be showing up to games dressed as the fucking SS.
  2. David Edgar said something I agreed with on this issue with the UB. He said there aren't many Rangers supporters that go to games regularly that haven't sung one of these songs and any cunt pointing fingers might want to just get off the high horse and fuck up. Or words to that effect. Personally i feel if the songs or words are going to get us into trouble with UEFA or the SFA/SPFL then for the time being lets just cut it out but Im also not daft enough to think that if we give up some ground they won't just shift focus onto something else like strips or socks or fucking Tina Turner. What a wont do though is be a wee hollier than thou wank bucket and come on forums or Twitter and start telling other supporters how horrible it is having them in our stadium.
  3. The clubs twitter should be spamming gifs of him crossing himself imo
  4. Didn't think he was terrible today. His goal probably takes him for a 6 to 7 out of 10 for me.
  5. It's not 93 or 99 anymore is it? Its not just some moon howler on Sportscene or Sportsound for a few hours every week. He, and others, have a bigger platform in Twitter, Facebook etc, than the BBC or Sky or BT could ever offer him to spout his shite. And the climate of the world, even in our footballing backwater, has changed completely. You throw terms round like racism and it sticks whether its legitimate or not. We have people in political office that think Islam is a race. Its not a massive leap in logic to see that they can and probably will use the same tactics against everything and anything connected to us.
  6. 99% of the shite they throw at us is unfounded but it gets reported on a Monday, repeated all week then they move on to the next thing the following week. There's no comeback on them for telling lies about us. No-one is being docked wages, demoted or losing their jobs over telling these lies. So does it really seem like they need a leg to stand on? Does it fuck.
  7. Sorry mate not having it. Once the TBB is gone then the socks will be next. There's already BBC pundits claiming one of our strips is sectarian. And before you or anyone says so what, that same pundit claimed that if there was a crush at Rugby Park it would have been our own fault. Football supporters potentially being injured or losing their lives would have been our own fault. Still waiting on him apologizing, still waiting on the BBC rattling his arse over that statement. Anyone who doesn't think they don't have a brass enough neck to go after things like our strip or innocuous songs like Blue Sea of Ibrox or Simply the Best is kidding themselves on.
  8. We could if the same sort of lefty wankers that are after us hadn't convinced the world that opposing an Ideology or Religion is racist. So now instead of having debates about which culture is superior people like me are forced to spend 90% of our time defending ourselves against allegations of racism.
  9. We took them in. We fed them, clothed them, housed them and they've repaid us by blowing us up and raping our children. And now they have the temerity to tell us our culture is the problem.
  10. GovanBlue is right in his assertion that they won't stop with TBB or Fenian. They'll spend the next few years turning Simply the Best or Blue Sea of Ibrox into something hateful or bigoted and then be demanding we stop singing that as well.
  11. You'll be wanting Flower of Scotland banned aswell then will you
  12. Tbh they lost me when BBC pundits said there was no crush at Rugby park and even if there was it was our own fault and they took 2 weeks to ask for a retraction publicly.
  13. Nee naw nee naw here comes the hyperbole police to take you away to exaggerationtraz
  14. Songs about a regiment of the British army. I suppose the German soldiers that wrote poems about their bravery are anti catholic bigots as well then. Aye nae bother.
  15. Can't wait to change my RM picture to our Captain holding that league trophy above his beautiful head. Love Tav. Always have, always will.
  16. Its the precedent that counts. They admitted responsibility. There will be ambulance chasing solicitors all over this.
  17. They won't spend much more now they're out of the CL. Count on it.
  18. The difference between him and Kent is simply that he is not flashy. He just runs straight at defenders. That draws players towards him. He started out with Whittaker by half time every time he got the ball their RM and right most CM were getting sucked towards him every time he got the ball. This created space for Aribo, Jack and Davis to exploit. Pulling players out of position is exactly what we need against packed defenses. I dont care how its done as long as it gets done. He, like Kent, is not going to beat 3 or 4 players every time he gets the ball but if they are drawn to towards him the other attacking players have to be savvy to this and use the space he creates. People only remember the highlights of players like Laudrup and Gazza. The times they beat a few players and smashed one past the GK. They don't remember all the times they just sucked groups of players towards them and then just popped it off to the man in the space that created.
  19. Thought it was 50/50 between them tbh mate.
