Just as I thought?. Keep on runnin' n ridin' man....nichty nicht.?

Link?

?Either way he's an utter cunt mate!

There was an actor from the 60's and 70's called David McCallum....he was in a popular tv show called Sapphire And Steel(e). Just thought I'd put that in for those thinking it's a fake account!! Don't know if it is or isn't but could it be some cunt using this connection thinking they're a smart cryptic bastard or should I get tae ma scratcher??

?You're right. Not too much to ask is it mate! This is why this ongoing situation is driving us all to despair...we just want truth and fairness!!

The inference being that jane hamilton is in mortal danger? C'mon hag, you cannot be serious!! STOP THIS DUPLICITOUS SCAREMONGERING!!! No one sees you condemning jane hamilton for the abuse she has thrown at Rangers and Rangers Fans over a long period of time....that's deplorable of you....as is her abuse of Us!! But you swiftly post innocuous (in appearance to the naive) words, so sickeningly barbed with disingenuous lies!! We expect nothing less from you than to support your fellow Rangers haters and we know your form but, craftily, we're not your target audience for your sly bile, are we?...no, you want, 1) to be fawned over by your equally cretinous Rangers hating peers as a champion of truth and righteousness (aye right) and, 2) to convince, otherwise uninvolved, people that they should actively hate everything Rangers too!! You are a shameless and despicable person and I truly hope your "career" (built on less than genuine qualities) nosedives spectacularly....you deserve nothing less!!!

Spot on mate! ??

Should this be merged with the other Sam Ricketts thread?

Where's a Sam Ricketts when you need one?!! This letter does indeed reveal Sam's dry wit....here's an excerpt: "As for your "whine" that you have not got an invitation, do you not think now, candidly speaking, that the Committee, in giving you the "go by", have estimated your services for, or rather against, the Club, at their proper value?" Love this guy...and the way they spoke and wrote in those days...priceless piece of Rangers history!! Would love to see a Sam Ricketts riposte to the editor of the daily fucking liar, murray Foote-in-mouth in this day and age of media lies against Rangers!!! Sadly, that'll never happen!!!

?Fixed that for you s_d!?

Think what they're attempting to say BR is that in 2010 the word h** was not deemed pejorative or offensive....sweep! Further, it is her pet name for her husband (neglecting to mention the many other times she's used the term to describe us, even after it did become pejorative)...but that's ok...sweep, sweep!! Furthermore, we shamelessly stand firmly behind our journalism and journalists...even although criminal, verbal abuse has taken place...repeatedly.....sweep, sweep, sweep!!! Murray Foote-in-mouth, Editor, Daily Lying Bastards. Either that or they're just trying to say she's changed...she's now being smarter about where and when she expresses her bigotry!

On a charge of cowardice and in jail awaiting court-martial, I expect!

?I too, agree your post was very sensible and well written mate but I think all Bears are only too aware that the most pertinent aspect of this is the subject matter of jane hamilton's slanderous piece and NOT the name calling. However, highlighting the fact that she uses bigoted and hateful language against us on public forums serves a very important purpose...it demonstrates clearly to all of us that she, and her discredited rag, has an agenda against us!! Bigoted personality + slanderous national press release = corrupt outcome....she now knows that we know exactly who and what she is!!

Dead on?! "Carefully crafted" are the key words here! Whether these are the words of the police or of jane hamilton, it matters not....it's job done! How many people the length and breadth of the country are reading that filthy lie and lapping it up....salivating...their tongues sucking and slurping on every word of, ever more, Rangers hating rhetoric?! Personally, I couldn't give a fuck about those types but there'll be a significant number of people who have had no previous truck with Rangers fans or the Club but who will now feel compelled to join the Rangers hating queue with this tactical, verbal assault! Very damaging to our image...just the way they want it!!

?We're in agreeance then mate. I think the msm should be done with it and just employ the services of phil 3 names or the rev stuart campbell to act as head of the department that oversees 'project down with Rangers'! That way all the Rangers hating minions like jane hamilton, britney, tom oirish et al could have carte blanche to do their worst on us....oh, fuck, they already have carte blanche! Silly me! I will ALWAYS argue for free and democratic journalism in any country but it's surely not too much to ask for fair and responsible journalists that don't set out to gratuitously victimise a massive group of People, inciting and inducing hatred of them (and, in turn, of themselves) as a consequence!! That's just plain dangerous!

I also fully agree with a democratic and free press mate but it's not unreasonable to question the motives of a "journalist" who describes herself as a "tim" and gratuitously uses the term "H**" to denigrate a support and Club she clearly has a strong dislike for! Should her bosses let her take on a story of such a sensitive nature when her views could be easily construed as...let's say...potentially biased to the extent where, perhaps, her personal beliefs could blind her judgement? Further, she may not have to reveal or justify her source but I think she'll have a job on her hands justifying her dubious morals!!

The French protest en masse if their lunch breaks are altered....it's in their culture....I say, good fucking on them! They get things done and, consequently, the French government tread very fucking carefully!! It works there!! My personal opinion on Us Rangers fans is that although we all agree that we're being jackbooted from all fucking angles and we know that we desperately need to do something about it, there's a lack of cohesion and leadership! We NEED the Club AND someone who commands genuine respect by ALL sections of all communities in Scotland and/or the UK to fight our corner....or at least, unravel this fucking mess equitably!!! Perhaps, a judge or politician....maybe even someone from outwith the UK....someone genuinely impartial!! Further, I think we've been made to feel a sense of guilt at who and what we are...further preventing us from acting collectively on issues of mutual concern!! We've been made to feel like second class citizens for so long I wonder if we're starting to believe it ourselves!! We've been made to feel like vile, sectarian bigots by the "new establishment" in this country!! In their eyes, we've subjugated the poor oirish immigrants for too long now and we're not going to get away with it any longer...hence the lopsided and unfair way in which we continue to be treated!! Who's doing this to us? The educated oirish diaspora in Scotland, who occupy positions of power in every section of our society, that's who!! How the fuck are we to combat that mate?!! Mobs of us approaching buildings, marching, protesting? That just gives them more justification to hate us further...no...as I say...we need outside help on this!!!

Don't want to be over dramatic here but this is turning into a national crisis for me!!! If this is not dealt with fairly (and it's clearly not) by the start of next season, I can see unrest and a potential for much worse violence....we can only take this for so long before anger at these perpetual injustices spills into upcoming games!!!

Don't know much about the ex-MP Brian Donohoe other than he's a Rangers fan! Could he not exert some influence and pressure, or act in an advisory type role in order to help us collate evidence and present it to the right people and authoritative bodies? Just a thought!

Negative PR onslaught on Rangers fans has reached new and despicable heights....even slyly playing up to preconceptions/misconceptions held by far too many people in Scotland that hate us already, by mentioning Northern Ireland in such a way as to link us with (in their twisted minds) Loyalism/Protestantism = sectarianism!!!....so we MUST be at fault!!! I don't want to disrespect Liverpool fans and, especially, those involved at Hillsborough by making a direct comparison but this DOES have shades of the lies and cover up tactics employed by the South Yorkshire Police force!!! Police Scotland will be putting it about next that Rangers fans robbed and urinated on hibs fans and attacked heroic cops trying to do their jobs!!!! BAAASSSSTAAARRRDDDSSSS!!!!!!!

I say shout from the rooftops Joey, say wtf you like mate...be controversial, get in these stinking hacks faces and tell them how it is (you'll learn soon enough you need to).....shake this journalistic backwater up a bit....you're just what we need up here, at Our Club, just at the right time!!! Of course, you MUST do the business on the field...that's where your biggest battles lie!!! I'm in no doubt you will...loving your style Mr Barton!!!

Expect nothing less from big David Weir....class personified!! Applauds hibs for their win whilst not uttering a word of complaint about the wrongdoing against us.....sometimes saying nothing at all says absolutely everything!!

Police officer with his finger to his earpiece whilst asking his superior for advice and awaiting further instruction: "Sir, Sir...there's a cross dressing hibs fan assaulting a Rangers fan right in front of me, what should I do Sir?" Superior: "Just observe the situation, officer o'connor fitzgerald, and only intervene if the Rangers fan retaliates...you know fine well empress sturgeon's diktat!!!" .......Either that or he's hauwking tatties oot ehs lugs!?

I, like all Bears, was delighted with the scathing statement from Rangers in defence of Our Players, Club Officials, Fans and the good name and reputationof Our Club in general! The statement, the structure, and wording contained within, along with the targets we chose to deride and identify should leave none of Us in any doubt that the Club mean business in tackling these issues.... FINALLY....and not before time! I have been critical of the Club in the past for failing to bare its teeth -especially in regards backing Us, the fans, on various issues - when coming under attack from all quarters but it cannot be accused of taking a back seat this time, so to speak! Some of the more cynical among us may suggest, perhaps with some justification, that Our Club wouldn't be so vociferous in its support for the Fans had Players and Officials not been so disgustingly accosted and attacked on the field of play at hampden! However, that Rangers DID back Us at all is a massive step in the right direction and should be applauded! This debacle will play out for months....perhaps even years, and the Club MUST NOT allow our detractors (which feels like a whole country and football "community") to weaken our resolve and our strong case to get diminished in the passing of time....because, be in no doubt, that's what they'll attempt to do! The motherwell case demonstrates this tactic perfectly! Our next move should be along the lines of what Cushynumber said earlier in the thread...have the likes of MW talking to media outlets in England, like Sky, for example! It's highly unlikely (nigh on impossible actually) we'll get parity from the Scottish government, our msp's or mp's, the judiciary, police Scotland, the sfa, the msm, the rest of the footballing community or, indeed even, the general public outside of The Rangers Fraternity!! No...this has to be taken to outside bodies like UEFA, Westminster....hell, even the European Courts if it helps us receive justice (while we're still in Europe)!! We need an independent inquiry set up to investigate why Our Club and Fans are being treated with such disdain, such hatred, such inequity and, dare I say it, such abuse of our civil rights!! No other large group of people are treated in such a way in Scotland....why us? LET'S HAVE A FULL, IMPARTIAL AND INDEPENDENT INVESTIGATION TO CALL THESE PEOPLE OUT ON WHY THEY CONDEMN US SO READILY!!! THIS CAN ONLY BE ACHIEVED BY EMPLOYING THE HELP OF NON SCOTTISH INVESTIGATORS...SADLY!!!

Yeah, in all seriousness, your assertions are sound TIP....I was just being silly about his manic demeanor, which I found highly entertaining!
