Sandy Jardine threatens to hand back SFA Hall of Fame award

[TBagalag 722]

If true, this is a fantastic gesture. Would be even more amazing if it cajoled our current crop of homegrown players into telling Levein to stick his call-ups straight up his arse. May be petty but why should these players play when the SFA are hellbent on killing their current source of income.

[Peachy 12]

It is called standing up for something you believe in. It sounds like a handwringer like you wouldn't know what that means.i

What do you mean, it gives ammo to the tarriers? It sounds to me like you care more about their opinion than ours. I do not personally give a fuck about them at the moment, this is not about them. There is a certain amount of irony in you sayoing that we should voice our displeasure then you criticise when we do.

For too long we have sat back and taken it. We have no owner to defend us, no board, although Ally is doing his best.

A true Rangers fan wouldn't be belittling the protest, they would be applauding it. It makes me seriously wonder where your true allegiances lie.

And there it is...

Plonker.

Oh yes must be tim...sigh. does this not get old?

If you read the fucking post I said these things backfire. You are all about the mhedia coverage and what I said was this is going to look bad for us in the mhedia.

Timing is everything.This is the shit the mhanks do. Why didn't we just trot out the fucking candlelight vigil?

If we are going to claim the high road then take it.

What I see from this protest is 7000 Gers out of a possible 150,000 or more turned up.

I do not like these events and that IMHO.

Iwas there and the guy ia a true legand where was ower greatest ever ranger I think he should have been at the start even I he couldn't I no he has nee prob but he's let a lot of people down and this takes a lot for me to bring him down

FFS, we dont need the likes of you right now, we should all be in this together, focusing on your common enemys, The SFA, kiddie fiddling FC etc...

Well done Sandy showing great leadership when it's at it's most needed. Also big heartfelt thanks to all who attended the demonstration and am so glad that it passed off peacefully.

I hope that another demonstration is being organised as we cannot afford to leave it thinking job well done. Do we have any politicians who would turn out to give a wee speech if we were to lobby scottish parliament for their intervention and say an inquiry into events at SFA.

Any ideas how we could follow up on today, personally I don't think police would approve a demo next weekend at hampden and being fair if you were in their position would you.

I know what you're saying mate but he's probably still pissed off with the way Whyte shabbily treated him.

[Jimmy9Millar 9]

Jardine should keep his award. He got it on merit and the SFA he got it from was a bit different from the current SFA.

[bombaybadboy08 15,660]

Great gesture,still surprised to see some people trying to piss on the idea of Rangers fans daring to stand up for their club today.

[Peachy 12]

yuk

Well done

Well are we winners or whiners?

It's tainted title.

Now we trot out a protest again.The last one against CW was fucking woeful.

We set em up and the tarriers knock em out of the park.

I guess I'd some need to vent frustration and make it known we are unhappy so be it.

My opinion is our Manager has spoke. Sandy is out of line running to the mhedia with his threat to hand his honours back at this time.There is a time and place for maximum statement and all this says to me is we are reacting at the wrong time.

I have absolute faith in Ally and back his name them statement 100%.I think Sandy should save his theatrics.

If you want to hand it back do it out if disgust later. Not to change a judicial opinion.It smacks of Lemmon.

When we are bought and stable we can garrot each of these fuckers.Not now.

IMO as a tim of course...cunt

In Scotland it's always been the way that when there's an injustise people take to the streets, presume you're an ex pat?

We had a peacefull protest a show of solidarty, united we stand, divided we fall, show some solidarity and applaud our actions no matter how futile (in your opinion) they may be.

[pye1965 26]

I agree, wholeheartedly. Very dissapointed in Our Captain lately with his comments for/in the media but thought Big Mark and Sandy have been just how we would want any Rangers man to be!

Sandy is a true hero

What made my heart sink was ,having been brought up with Greig,Butcher,Gough,Barry as captains of Rangers it took me a second to think of the Rangers captain

mmmm thats nice

We are in this together.What has this protest achieved?

Here a thought.take all that energy form a group and pony up what you can to the legal defence to roast CW or Collier Bristow.

I am tired of being a fucking laughing stock with these protests.

If you want to go-ahead.As I said. It smacks of timothy and victimization complex for me.

When the dust settles we can settle up with those who twisted the knife.Sandy keep stumpf for now. A threat from a great this time looks like sour grapes.

Do it when we are stable without fanfare.Makes a bigger statement.

I await the banning....

[Peachy 12]

mmmm thats nice

If all new posters like me is accused of being a tim Il fucking give it back.suck it up.

You came on and voiced your displeasure at the protest,the topic is about Jardine threatening to hand an award back.

You then go on to talk about celt*c and call people cunts.

Start a new thread if you want to obsess over the tims.

Well in, everyone who saw him play knows how good he was he doesn't need a pishy award from the SFA to tell him that.

Reasonable response!

No I live in Canada but my father was RIP

Maybe its a Scottish labour thing but I have never protested.I am conservative and a red meat Torie so I am defo on the fringe if Scottish psyche.Maggie T and all that.

Marches and protest just ring of left wing timmy esque give me what I wan am pyoor hard done by.

Rangers protests either outside the beeb or whatever always descend into farce.We are not a protest candlelight kombaya club and as far as I know never have been.

I know we are in deep trouble but this will not help us in the eyes of tiose in charge of our fate nor the other clubs.

I respect all rights to go to the streets but I do not like it.

Perhaps If I lived there I might go out but well.. not likely

WATP!

[Peachy 12]

Jardine was part of the protest.

[Buzz 306]

Sandy Jardine has certainly done his bit. I know he's gotten a lot of stick recently from supporters, but he's really showing how much the club means to him.

[Peachy 12]

If I suggested you were a tim would that be like calling you a cunt?

Now anyone who suggests I am a tim with a question of allegiance without meeting me should be able to be thick skinned enough to be called a cunt.

This is the premier Rangers forum right?

[Loyal Bear 72 363]

When we are bought and stable we can garrot each of these fuckers.Not now.

Not now? If our national association are goin to hinder our chances of being bought you might not get that chance later on. The time for action is now or never.

I think it is great to see the Gers fans starting to mobilise and I think what Sandy is saying is an honest statement of how he feels this club is being treated.

Don't worry, you can just wait and let everything sort itself out.

[steviebrox 3]

good on you sandy was there today standing shoulder to shoulder wae the rest ov us trying to protect our club tell me tho were was the greatest ranger ever no were to be seen typical thank you sandy a true ger

Well that explains it mate, you don't have to be a socialist or "red" to protest you know....I'm true blue, tory and all that but I'll still take to the streets to defend against injustice.

Very well put my man
