Fan Power

[Dallas Cowboy 3]

Fan Power has been prevalent throughout the recent process which has ended(?) with the premier club in the country being removed from the top division and placed on the very bottom rung of Scottish Football.

Driven by spite and jealously the fans of SPL clubs who voted have flexed their muscles and attempted to kill off our club based on hearsay, accusation and conjecture. Utterly oblivious to their own hypocrisy they have demanded their pound of flesh and have got all that they asked for and more. They disregarded the effects on “their own” in favour of inflicting the maximum amount of damage on their perceived nemesis.

The TV deal that keeps their clubs afloat is now gone, the league and domestic competition sponsors will follow shortly after or at the very least will renegotiate extremely reduced terms for the “honour”.

The downsides apart they are feeling very smug and content with themselves because their demonstration has put the hated Rangers in what they feel is our place.

As Rangers fans we now have a unique opportunity, a once in the clubs lifetime chance to demonstrate to these cretins what Fan Power really is. To show them what a fan base united in its love and defence of their own club rather than the hatred of others can really do.

The next 4 years are crucial for the future wellbeing of the club, how we as fans perform during this period will have a huge impact on the future of our great club and as supporters we have the chance to be written into the clubs history in a manner that no previous generation of fans had the opportunity to do.

There will be an inevitable decline in the quality of the product and the players on the field, we must ignore this. There will be an associated decline in the achievement of honours, this too must be ignored. Regardless we must follow on, our money continuing to flow through the turnstiles for a product that falls way short of the standards to which we are very much accustomed will demonstrate that love of your own is a far more powerful and unifying force than hatred of an enemy.

Those who have wronged us and will not be forgotten, we will have our revenge on most. Some will disappear before that revenge can be delivered by us thanks to their own short sightedness and stupidity. For others we will have the satisfaction of delivering the fatal blow personally. Rangers fans will never forget nor forgive the attacks on our club and never again will we subsidise their existence.

Rangers will not die, we as fans will not allow it and no matter the forces ranged against us we shall overcome to ensure the continuation of the greatest club the world has ever seen. We will not rest until our club has taken back its rightful place.

To paraphrase a famous sporting commentary,

Scottish Football, brace yourself……………….The Rangers are coming, The Rangers are coming.
