BlueEdu 230 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Everytime i read an anti-rangers article written by such people, i get very angry. I feel aggravated at the injustice and i hate to think his input is influencing people and their feelings toward our club. But then i think that there is a reason these articles just keep coming with not much reprocussion: No-ones interested. And i feel that by writing such things he is merely embarassing himself. It's quite laughable actually, that at an event where celtic fans tried to run on a pitch, set off illegal fireworks, and publicly threatened a footballer whose property has before been vandalised. he is more concerned with one man shouting FTP. His agenda is obvious and the way he openly parades it is hillarious. A man of absolutely no integrity, and no class. There's also a reason why we don't have people writing for us like this. It's because we are better than that Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
thebooler 4,509 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 I can't seem to get ma head around this one. 1. Speirs is the coward for not reporting the culprit. 2. Speirs is the coward for not just asking the culprit to refrain from "offending" him. 3. Speirs is the coward for publicising the incident/s in order to try and drum up some support for his childish behaviour. 4. Speirs is also a coward as he is obviously too scared to visit his doctor for a chech up on his (selective) hearing. He can GTF! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The point is that they probably realise he is simply not a threat, and yeh to ban him would only make his points seem valid.

The club can only do so much and it is up to the fans to act and alter songs and quit the FTP crap. We have to stop the constant claiming its ok to sing it because they do......i couldnt give two fucks about them. We should all do everything that we can to ensure that our reputation isnt tarnished and we are seen to be proactively working towards a better resolution that we have right now..

opportunityknox 1 Posted October 6, 2009 Share Posted October 6, 2009 Where am I? HOME * SPORT The Game Blog TheGame - Times Online - WBLG Britain's best football supplement comes alive on Times Online You can subscribe to a feed of posts at: http://timesonline.typepad.com/thegame « The Rivals: Cut-price Hammers | All Posts October 06, 2009 Cowardly Rangers turn a blind eye to bigotry Fans_blog Graham Spiers Following Sunday's Old Firm game at Ibrox I find myself with a highly unusual dilemma on my hands, which is this: should a journalist report a supporter for indulging in bigoted or racist chanting? Since the tousy affair at Ibrox, which Rangers won 2-1, I have received a number of e-mails from people after I mentioned in my column yesterday in The Times that a Rangers supporter sitting directly behind me in the main stand at Ibrox had twice bawled "F*ck the Pope" during some of the home supporters' communal singing. Bigoted chanting is an old sore with Rangers FC and its support, and the club makes weekly tannoy requests urging fans to report other supporters who indulge in such antics. Rangers even advertise a telephone number by which supporters can file such complaints with details (where the offender sits, etc). As you can imagine, the so-called "grassing" hotline is hardly popular among those Rangers diehards, for whom songs about Popes, Fenians and the rest of it is both a right and a privilege. But journalists getting involved? It is one thing for someone in my position to report it and comment on it, but quite another to wade in and become an active participant. And yet more than one correspondent has written to me since Sunday and said something such as: "Go on then Graham ... let's see if you've got the guts to do it." In fact, Sunday at Ibrox was no exceptional symptom of the Old Firm's bigotry problem - that is, if you are used to these things and simply accept that the droning choristers will not be able to help themselves. And in this regard, Rangers as a club are between a rock and a hard place. Uefa has already punished Rangers for the bigoted antics of its supporters in 2006, an episode which proved excruciating for the club's directors. Yet since then, while some of Rangers' efforts to cure the problem have definitely slackened off, more and more people are commenting that the old Ibrox ills are creeping back. The Rangers pre-match anthem, Simply the Best, is now embarrassingly hijacked by throngs of supporters, who apply their own offensive lyric to the tune, as was the case once more on Sunday. In my own specific experience on Sunday, a Rangers fan sitting behind my press position in the main stand was chanting so loudly and excitedly - and offensively - that it simply became a distraction. It was also quite sad when I turned round to look at him: he was youngish, maybe 18 or 19, and highly animated by events on the pitch, and in every other way quite a respectable-looking bloke. It always comes back to the same dilemma: what can be done? Thousands of Rangers fans on Sunday afternoon repeatedly let rip with their popular refrain "we hate Celtic - f****n bastards", precisely the sort of language which caused Uefa to punish the club in 2006. Yet are Rangers, their stewards or the police supposed to wade in and apprehend hundreds of fans? It just isn't feasible. Yet Rangers have gone mute on this subject, thanks in the main to local Scottish media pressure easing on them: not a cheep, not an utterance of condemnation from the club in recent times about such songs. Rangers are currently practising a cowardice on the subject which will once more return to haunt them. And it all remains cringe-making for those legions of decent Rangers fans who just wish the tribes of oafs in their midst would either be muzzled, or removed, or both. The club's image remains in the gutter. I may or may not report my main stand miscreant to Rangers. In all honesty, I'm loath to. And in any case, the way Rangers are copping out of all this at the moment, would they be in the slightest bit interested? spiers not saying that celtic fans yet again sang about the ira on sunday Hey Norman, if you're looking in (and I suspect you, or a spy may be), read the following two articles about you. Hey, it might inflate your ego, but I'd love to see you address the points raised. http://www.followfollow.com/news/loadnews....W&id=466909 http://www.vanguardbears.co.uk/index.php?o...11&Itemid=1 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why dont we sing the Blue Sea and other Rangers songs. You need to change job. Who do you work for, Shellikfitbaclub? Did you question your colleagues on their opinions on the Hooped Horrors' song choices, or meekly say nothing? Tell them tomorrow that UEFA has no jurisdiction over SPL matches, and if they did, they might be interested in the Green'n'Grey's "extremist ideological propaganda" Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
