AlCapone 7,678 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Glad to see someone saying it as it ishttp://www.amazon.co.uk/gp/product/1845022866/ref=s9_newr_gw_ir02?pf_rd_m=A3P5ROKL5A1OLE&pf_rd_s=center-1&pf_rd_r=0DN8ZNE5KV05PYR8QPK5&pf_rd_t=101&pf_rd_p=467198433&pf_rd_i=468294Straight from the book I can accept that it may be difficult to track down who hit Fernando or Dr Jackson (with coins) but I still can't for the life of me work out why more has not been done in the easier instances to investigate. A mobile phone was thrown at me. Perhaps it was a pay as you go sim card? Perhaps it never had any numbers stored such as 'home' for example. But I find that pretty hard to believe. Surely it can't be all that difficult to track down who threw a phone? Maybe i'm underestimating the level of work required for this task.It must be much more difficult than I imagine although it does make me wonder how any criminals are ever arrested in this country.Perhaps it's the complete apathy towards finding anyone who wants to target me that breeds confidence in these kinds of people. Certainly, to hear a group of Celtic fans singing about me dying from a bullet from the IRA at an under 19s Youth Cup Final at Hampden makes me think no one is concerned about the consequences of such behaviour.........I think it's bizarre the amount of people who take the moral high ground and condemn Rangers fans for singing songs that they find offensive. Football is a sport that's always had an edge to it. Fans of clubs all over the world sing disgusting songs including ones worse than i've ever heard in Scotland. The hypocrisy of Aberdeen fans would make me laugh if it wasn't so serious.An element of their fans think it's okay to sing about 66 people that died in the Ibrox disaster or about Ian Durrant's injury. It's not, it's vile. Yet they are quick to condemn Rangers fans. They sing homophobic chants which are aimed at me, yet act all outraged at my regrettable reaction. I read comments about how it offended young children at the game - were the parents okay with exposing their children to chants of a homophobic nature? The English police investigated Tottenham fans for similar chants aimed at Sol Campbell.Sadly, in Scotland, it seems only songs that Rangers fans sing are the ones that anyone appears to find very offensive. Our fans are constantly chastised for singing songs or chants but to me it seems like there's a bit of an agenda there, even though there are some songs that our own supporters must stop singing. I'm proud to say that no matter what happens in the future i'll always be a Ranger and no one can take that away from me. I may not have been born a Ranger, nor manufactured a Ranger like a true Ranger. I understand and I need no explanation. Hopefully i've served this famous club well and i've stayed true to the values and principles that make the club and the fans the best in the world. We truly are the people.

Thermopylae 15,287 Posted May 21, 2010 Share Posted May 21, 2010 Well if they didn't hate him before they will now .Seriously though you do wonder how they can keep such a bunch of rogues in line during European trips ... needless to say it helps that the mhedia won't report anything negative about them but I think there is also an element of keeping a lid on it just to make us look bad (just as the tartan army did during England's problem years) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

StayWestFree 107 Posted May 22, 2010 Share Posted May 22, 2010 I'm so glad he left with a league winners medal. Well 3 to be exact. But one in his last season is just a good way of signing off. Well in wee man and cheers for the memories.He gave me the best feeling I have ever had from a football match. That penalty. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
