    chapman reacted to 1690tamRFC in What does Rangers mean too you   
    Everything. I moved to south east England in 1978 aged 5 and since 1983 have spent my whole life on trains planes and buses following home and away, at first at the expense of my mother who is also now living back in Scotland, and from 1990 when I left school and got my first ST I traveled up to usually 10 or so home games and the same away. Been to 37 games in Europe over the years but not as many as I should have last couple, Vienna being the last. I’m lucky that I was brought up in a family where Rangers meant everything especially growing up down south, but I honestly can’t put into words what our club means, but it’s 100% the most important thing in my life

    chapman reacted to jintybear in insane bbc bias   
    We can all laugh and be faux offended but see to be honest it is starting to get beyond a joke. They are making our brand seem less important than them over the city. Neutral people actually watch/read BBC and when headlines are always negative about us and positive about them then people do tend to believe it  because it mostly goes unchallenged. We should be complaining about it because as the OP said they are supposed to be neutral.

    chapman reacted to Ace in Ibrox Maintenance   
    THE rebuilding work on the park is what matters most for Rangers. The refurbishments off it are further signs of progress, proof that the club is being taken care of once again.
    The money from Dave King and his board has funded the overhaul that has been undertaken by Steven Gerrard. Away from the boardroom, Colin Stewart plays his own part.
    At Ibrox, a new hybrid pitch has been laid, while the dugouts and the track have been replaced. So, too, have the plastic panels around the stadium, while work continues to update and upgrade the players’ area as the wood glistens with fresh varnish.
    In isolation, each job may not seem like a big deal. They mean much to Stewart after seeing Ibrox lose some of its lustre while previous regimes walked the corridors.
    “I am almost 20 years at the club and I have never seen as much work getting done at the same time as this summer,” Stewart, the Director of Operations for the RYDC, said. “You can hardly get moving for people with hard hats and that is fantastic to see.
    “It is actually quite heart-warming to see because we had four years of neglect, and you can’t do that.
    “Having the manager on board, having come from what he has come from, has made a difference.
    “It is fantastic. It is comforting for someone who is a Rangers fan that works there and sees it every day.
    “I am delighted the board have seen fit to undertake the work. Money has to be spent on the first team, that is what we are all here for.
    “But the board recognise that running parallel with that the fabric of the building had to be brought back up to Rangers levels. The board have backed the manager both on the pitch and off the pitch.”
    The work at Ibrox is what supporters will see and cherish the most, but plenty is being done behind the scenes as well, including a major overhaul of the Hummel Training Centre.
    That is where most of the funds, which total more than £8million now, that Stewart raises are invested.
    It has taken time, but Rangers are finally being restored to the levels which supporters recognise.
    “When I joined, Dick Advocaat was the manager and we have had some great years since with some great players,” Stewart said. “We won Trebles, we had Helicopter Sunday.
    “I saw the Treble teams of the 70s. As a Rangers fan I expected to win and it is a shame that there are a generation of young fans now that have never seen us win. I am just used to it and having those four, five, six years of nothing and seeing people take not give from the club, watching the place crumble from the inside, it was tough, really tough.”
    It is four-and-a-half years now since King, Paul Murray and John Gilligan won control at Ibrox.
    Time, and money, hasn’t yet healed all the wounds, though. Legacy issues continue to be dealt with on a regular basis as steps forward are taken.
    “I only met Craig Whyte twice,” Stewart said. “I remember sitting for the first time with Craig and I thought to myself ‘I have never sat with a billionaire before’. Before the second meeting, I realised I still hadn’t.
    “I refused to meet Charles Green, I refused to meet (Derek) Llambias and (Barry) Leach. I met (Brian) Stockbridge and (Imran) Ahmad but I didn’t meet the Easdales (Sandy and James). There were very few of that group that I actually met.
    “It is terrible to say, we basically locked our door and got on with our work. Sometimes I would take my laptop and work from home for a week because I knew they were looking for me and I would come back to all these missed calls.
    “I refused to give them money. When the good guys arrived, I handed over money to Paul Murray.”
    There are few staff at Ibrox with more stories to tell than Stewart. He lives the dream working for his club, but went through the nightmare before coming out the other side.
    His commitment is admirable, his efforts crucial to Rangers.
    “The board just now are great and I am around the place on a matchday and the guys thank me for what I am doing, which is really nice,” he said. “They are Rangers fans at heart and they just want the best for the club.
    “For four years, I wouldn’t go near the Blue Room but now I am able to go back, there is laughter again and it is like the gloom has been lifted.
    “The good guys are back and it is a changed place. The board are looking after Rangers on the pitch, but off the pitch is just as important.

    Gerrard is learning. He is getting it right. He now knows what it takes and what this backwater is all about.
    Has been coming together the last few games. The inconsistency earlier in the season fucked us and we gifted them the title.
    We are now better than them. Today imo we fucking humiliated the cunts. They had no answers. We imposed ourselves. Our tempo and movement immense.
    Every player on that park today stepped up. Even Wes went to the growl. We even had options on the bench that wouldn't weaken us.
    Of course I'm gutted we didn't put those imposters to the sword for the title, but we ARE fucking coming, of that I have no doubt and next season there will be no fucking prisoners.
    WATP!

Office,job done.
    You have these charlatans going into overdrive because a song was sung ,a song they no doubt have sang themselves only it's alright for them to do so because it's an Orange bastard on the receiving end.
    These poor oppressed Irish Catholic immigrants who would have you believe they are subjected to discrimination and hate on a daily basis haven't half done well in the face of this oppression.
    They control the judiciary,they control the biggest council's in the country,they control the narrative set by the media and you have a Government who will pander to their objectives all in the name of Independence based on nothing else other than their hatred of Great Britain and everything it stands for.
    Who stands in the way of their aims,the indiginent people of this country and they see Glasgow Rangers and their supporters as the enemy wether you believe in an independent Scotland or not doesn't matter, in their minds we are H** Scum and we should know our place, what is our place ? Could it be cattle trucks to God knows where,wearing a blue star to identify you as an enemy of the state.
    Some might find this a bit far fetched but when you let Nationalistic tendencies run free your f.ucked, Hitler and the Balkans are examples of this madness.
    Soldier made a scapegoat whilst the scum get letters telling them they will not be prosecuted for their crimes.
    It's just like watching Rangers attempt to play football,your f.ucked before a ball is kicked,the opposition know they have the freedom to foul at will and the referee and his assistants will do nothing ,again this has been the result of the Catholic inferiority complex of never defeated always cheated mentality and persistently backed up by the lickspittals in the media.
    Kick them Out for their abhorrent crimes against children.

    chapman reacted to Davy Vandenbroucke in Comparisons With Last Season   
    Where to begin?
    We’ve earned over £20 million from Europe this season compared to last season where we had one home match and had our arses handed to us by Luxembourgish part timers.

    Just from watching games with my own eyes, the football we're playing under Gerrard is in the main, miles ahead of the previous two managers. It says a lot that Sean Goss, who was a first-teamer last season, is now out on loan at St. Johnstone.
    We lost ten league games last season and conceded over 50 goals.
    We threw away a lead against celtic at Ibrox and after that gave up on the season, which later saw us get pumped 4-0 in a semi final and 5-0 in a league game. That was embarrassing.
    I could go on.
    This season, although somewhat disappointing, is far from embarrassing.

    I really struggle to take anyone seriously that tries to compare this season to last in all honestly, it's night and day.

    Rangers Football Club takes this opportunity to remind fans of the need to support the team in the correct manner.
    As the manager, Steven Gerrard, strives to provide excellence on the pitch we, the support, must also strive to protect the club and ensure that Rangers is projected in the best possible light.
    The majority of our supporters recognise that they are the club’s ambassadors and that unacceptable behaviour has no place in our ranks.
    Let’s go to Aberdeen determined to make sure that triumphs, like that wonderful 5-0 Scottish Cup replay win against Kilmarnock last week, are not downplayed because of negative headlines generated by unacceptable chants and songs. If this continues, those fans who indulge will succeed only in damaging their own club.
    Support the team, be louder than our opponents and drive our players forward but let’s do so in the correct manner.
    Let’s not give anyone a chance to criticise this great club, your club.
