  1. The song is fucking shite but yeah, how the whole crowd actually joins in is good. Still shite though... The Hull one is laughable.
  2. Gus Poyet is a cunt, no thank you. Can't see us getting a manager from any club in the top two English Divisions. Wouldn't mind Martin Allen, though I don't think he is good enough. My ideal targets would be: Phil Parkinson Karl Robinson Uwe Rosler Kenny Jackett Simon Grayson Darren Ferguson I think that they are all fairly young, Kenny Jackett is the oldest, though is only 51. They have all been somewhat successful, albeit in the English Lower Leagues. Another possibility would be to go for a foreign manager.
  3. The point about the modern UVF was brought up before I even posted. And songs about fighting the IRA and Battles in Ireland 300+ years ago are different than the Welsh Sporting Anthem, I just don't understand how loyalist songs can some how be part of the Rangers song book, if I was a player I'd rather hear the fans sing Four men had a dream than The Sash.
  4. Clearly not, some joined because they believed it was the correct thing at the time, most were not involved with serious crimes, murder etc. It's extremely easy to simply say that they were defending their own communities by going out and retaliating, but by killing innocent Catholics, much like the Shankill Butchers did, much like Adair's C Company did and bombing Cities and towns such as Dublin and Monaghan make them no better than any Republican Paramilitary. You bring up about Sinn Fein hiding killers amongst their ranks, whilst that is undeniable the reason why those who have committed crimes such as murder aren't involved in mainstream Unionism is because, thankfully, the Unionist community accept them for what they are, terrorists, drug dealers and criminals. Also, if you think it was the Loyalist paramilitaries who forced the IRA onto the backfoot then I simply can't believe you, they were riddled with informants during the 90's, from what I have been told, it was believed that up to 25% of IRA members where British informants leading up to the GFA. I genuinely believe that without the UVF, UDA and the UFF that Northern Ireland wouldn't have been lost to the Irish Republic, and that Northern Ireland, in the Unionist communities anyway, would be a lot better of than they are now. Look at the poverty in working class Unionist area's, something which I believe those paramilitaries have helped advance. Sinn Fein, despite my great hatred for them have acknowledged that the working class vote is one of the most vital area's, why do you think SF are so big? Why did they take over the SDLP in elections? Because they use the working class vote, the get them out and voting while the Unionist parties are happy looking after those who make up the party, the middle class vote. The fact is, and it is enshrined in the GFA, the Union has never been stronger in Northern Ireland, it is now written into international law that unless there is a significant number who would want a United Ireland then there will not be a border poll. Catholics now feel that the Union works for them, and that has nothing to do with the actions of any sort of paramilitary force. Also, @ RFC Eagle, I never said the songs were about the current UVF, but, I don't believe they are songs that should be sung at football, I'd rather sing about Rangers players, the club itself etc.
  5. Tommy Wright, former Northern Ireland and Newcastle goalkeeper.
  6. Technically it is another land, being part of the Island of Ireland rather than GB, but I understand what you mean.
  7. Almost as bad as those who try and say the modern UVF are 'defenders of Ulster' Like the Original UVF where. The modern UVF are just as bad as their IRA counterparts, nothing but drug dealing, terrorist's who'd kill anyone who'd stand in their way, only difference is one are British while the others want a United Ireland.
  8. They came from an organisation which was set up to fight for Irish Independence, an organisation which would later go onto become the IRA. .
  9. Including the Irish Volunteers? Those who originally formed as a pro nationalist paramilitary but went on to join the British Army during World War one? The Irish Volunteers turned into the Original IRA.
  10. Have to either hold on or get another, can't concede!
  11. If they get a draw, or if it finishes this way they can still get to penalties!
  12. Why the fuck would you bet against them against Cliftonville?
  13. They handed back 500 tickets! Seriously, how can they not sell out an away allocation for a game in Northern Ireland? Cheap flights and the boat, should be easy for them to get over. Could you see Rangers handing back tickets to Linfield or Glentoran if we played either? Nope me neither.
  14. He was on trial at 19 with Celtic, before his move to Germany and I think the reason why he didn't go to Killie was he doesn't/didn't want to leave home again. Are you saying Waterworth is better than Boyce?
  15. The guy who has been a great signing for them? Totally worth it.
  16. Aye, with that 2 month injury of his! He is decent like, but not extremely special, the two lads who play for Cliftonvile, Gormely and Boyce are good, Boyce is good enough to play either SPL or League one football imo.
  17. Bunch of nobblers, should be ashamed for doing that salute whilst holding our flag.
  18. Aye, Dean Court only holds 10,500 so they will need high ticket prices to cover the match fee.
  19. Sure is, don't they actually play quite a bit less during the whole tournament? So, they are actually getting paid the same as the men even though they do less 'work.'
  20. Cilftonville will love it, massive match for them and a good chance to make a good bit of money. Like I said in the European thread, I wonder where it will be played, Cliftonville have a 4G pitch, and I can't see it going to Windsor Park. Cliftonville will push for either the local GAA stadium, or the Aviva.
  21. Has it been posted up on Rangers facebook pages? Hell, everyone should post it on their own facebook page, and tell others to share it. RSC's on FB should be posting it, as well as emailing the link to their members and telling them to spread the word.
