Oh don't get me wrong, I don't condone it but I totally understand why people retaliated. They make my blood boil and my hatred for everything they stand for grows by the day. It's been brewing for a long, long time now and we all know the scum are getting away with far too much. However, today shouldn't have been the time and place for it. As a previous poster said, they manipulated today to play right into their hands. They wanted a reaction and got it, which will be at our expense and set back all our justified arguments. With regards to the Rangers tops, I was meaning polo shirts, t-shirts etc as well as actual tops. Like you, I didn't actually see too many actual tops but there were plenty of people wearing colours in one form or another.

I know I don't post a lot and I'm probably going to get shot down but "our" side weren't without blame today. First of all, let me say that I - like everyone else - was utterly disgusted that their protest was allowed to go ahead today. I'm disgusted that they could attempt to ruin the day for the old and bold who aren't remotely interested in their politics. However, I'm also disgusted at the number of blokes wearing Union Flags or Rangers tops who charged at them with nothing but violence in mind. I was taking my 3 year old a walk around the perimeter of the Square as he wasn't getting a bit ratty and I didn't want to spoil the service for those around us. We got to the corner at George Street and stopped as the fly past went overhead. The trouble kicked off after that and as I tried to get out of the way with my son, he was trampled to the ground by rampaging blokes. Blokes old enough to know better and sadly, many blokes wearing Rangers tops. No one helped him up or get us out of the middle of it - they just wanted to keep charging forward, regardless of the fact there was a toddler on the ground. It was utterly terrifying for me, so think how it was for a child and he wasn't the only kid there. The whole place was full of children and families and the actions of many in front of those families was shameful. The scum who felt the need to protest today were nothing but that, scum. They set out to completely disrespect our veterans. However, do those who charged at them, screaming obscenities, knocking over children, really think that they were showing respect? Did our vets deserve that to happen or did they deserve everyone of us to turn our backs on the republican scum and ignore them whilst focusing our energy and respect on those who deserved it?

You can get them in Debenhams. I've saw it in both the one at Silverburn and Argyle Street.

(Long time lurker/reader but haven't quite got into the posting malarkay yet ) Anyhoo, I'm just back from the store at the stadium and they've just received a massive delivery while we were there. Staff said they had a delivery yesterday as well which they haven't managed to get onto the shop floor yet which is all sale stuff as well. Said they're trying to get it all unpacked as fast as they can so it seems that there is loads more bargains to be had. They were telling people to ring them tonight or tomorrow morning to see exactly what had arrived in the delivery.

First post here - sorry it's not on a nicer subject. I made the decision not to go to Ibrox last night and from what I'm reading, I now we made the right decision. I rang Ibrox every single day from the moment the beam back was announced until yesterday morning. My son is in a wheelchair and I wanted to know what disabled capacity would be/would there be a specific gate/queue etc. Every single day I rang I was told that they hadn' finalised any arrangements yet, they didn't know how disabled access would work and they didn't even now what stands or gates they would be opening. I was still being told this yesterday morning. The whole thing has just been a farce from beginning to end, sadly.
