islandblue 366 Posted July 28, 2012 Author Share Posted July 28, 2012 Let's have glebe park bouncing for 90mins but with the tv n media world watching lets leave the bigotry behind we've been shat on enough without adding this to it let's do the club we all love proudA simple change of one word allows us to do both.Im sick of every other team in the UK singing our song especially at Ibrox while we can't.II would reluctantly accept a relevantly minor change ie Fenian to Celtic or even substituting We follow Glasgow Rangers our hearts are strong and true to have our song back.Nothing beats a full Ibrox belting this out and with these changes where is the problem?

.Williamson. 83,841 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 We're up to our knees in fenian blood, surrender or you'll die...I've never understood how that's not a friendly sing a long for all the family. Should be a nursery rhyme. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
super-ally loyal 17 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Love the noise and passion the song generates -- how about one of the alternate versions??Hullo HulloHullo! Hullo!We are the Rangers Boys! Hullo! Hullo!You'll know us by our noise!We'll follow Glasgow Rangers, Our hearts are strong and TrueFor We Are The People who cheer the boys in BlueI'm with you 100% but we would need to hand out a song sheet or the ignorant would just sing the version that gets us in shit. If we could get this version going would be fantastic because as you say the noise generated is fantastic Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hesaidnototheprovos 75 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Going to game on Sunday and when we run on in front of the rest of Scotland it's important everyone knows we are still the same club.To me lets sicken t,he Taigs and belt out from beginning to end TBB.We need to change Fenian to Celtic but so what they know what we mean.Lets show them they will never change our heritage our believes and our love for our club and it's Protestant values.HULLO HULLOHow about we concentrate on singing about the Rangers.... Forget about the rest of these shitey clubs Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
legalbeagle 3,734 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 If we were stupid enough to do this, we will be hammered again, and we will lose any momentum that Ally and Charles Green can create in defending the club. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ZeonBlue 378 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Let's just bounce for 90 minutes.No!.........some of the stadiums might fall downRandom thought: IRN BRU are going to get exposure that they never dreamed of and for a hell of a lot less.New Slogan: Our league is Orange and Blue and we all drink Irn Bru Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
glesgabear81 24 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 If the "offending" word could be changed then I'd be all for it. It truly is a sight and sound to behold when the bears are in full voice singing TBB.I don't think we could get everyone to change that word though which is a pity, the song really adds to the atmosphere.

Ace 3,556 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Can't believe people think that, with the eyes of the world on us on Sunday, the best thing we can do is belt out a song that has already lost us a lot of well wishes. Also, why do we want to wind THEM up, they aren't in our league (quite literally) we have nothing to do with them, they aren't rivals any more, we complain about thier fascination of us, which is quite hypocritical considering our continued obsession with them.

dougie76 15,366 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 see aw the bams saying they want real rangers songs well the billy boys is a fucking real rangers song probably the realest rangers song going. if you have a problem with my and rangers culture then thats your problem. if you really want to move on from the past i dont but if you do then maybe you could suggest changing the words but the tune and most of the words are famous and have to stay. and to this guy talking about growing up in the backstreets and all that well i dont believe you!!!!!!1 if you really did then you wouldnt speak like that. am hof canned so am going to stop posting but one last thing...............we are the fucking people.................So you come on and call fellow gers fans bams cause they want to move on and not give the scum in this country any more ammo to shoot us with? hummmmm Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TheWee BlueDevil 222 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Save it for Celtic. In fact as much as I love Rangers, this stuff is something I struggle with. But there's a section of people's views I don't agree with and there are guys who probably wouldn't agree with mine. I work in a senior position within one of the largest Universities in the UK, so asking me to get involved in this kind of stuff is a non-starter.But come on guys, the one thing Rangers needs now more than anything is an much positive PR as possible. Be on best behaviour. show why we are the best fans in the world. We don't have a gripe with most of these 3rd division teams, so why risk offending them? Why not make the most of the experience and make as many new friends as possible?They say this is about integrity, so lets show the world what real integrity is, by fighting our way out of this hole, from the very bottom to the very top!! Make it a story you will be happy to tell your grandkids!Well said that gentleman. All Bears attending are ambassadors for RFC so let's show ourselves in a positive light. Please do not give the haters a stick to beat us with. The bheggars will not even be in our league for the next few years. Forget them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GlasgowBluenose2012 3 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 How about a new verse with the same tune.

Liam_RFC 238 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 A wish it was as easy to just change the words but we all know soon as some of our support have had a few drinks the old words will come back out Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 54,297 Posted July 28, 2012 Share Posted July 28, 2012 Think we need to see the bigger picture, and act smart right from tomorrow - this includes our choice of songs we sing (whether replacing the odd word or not) and the impression we give of ourselves.Painful as it is the manky mob deserve credit for how they've played out their tactics in recent times. Pulling the strings within the SPL and SFA, manipulating scottish media, playing the race card and winning sympathy with FARE and EUFA, never mind the persecuted / establishment-victim card.We've been fighting wars on too many fronts, and now need to just take time to rebuild, keep our heads down, become influential as we pass through the SFL leagues and ready ourselves for taking on the SPL in a few years time. From a position of strength.We need to do this by making friends as we travel, show humility and pride in our history in equal measure, and show that we truly are the best supporters in the word ( not self-proclaimed ).TBB is not the way to do this. What others deem is bigotry is not the way to do this.Singing as one about our love of the Rangers, not about our hatred of others IS the way to do this.

I moved on from there though to study and now teach computer science at one of the biggest Universities in the country. Damn straight I'm proud! Proud to be a Rangers fan too! Proud that there are so many fans who don't think like you at all, which gives me heart and reason to go on supporting Rangers. Like I said if I thought the whole fan base was made up of people like you, I would be off out of it tomorrow. I do hope we use this opportunity to build something new and something better than we had before. We have a chance to win a whole new kind of support. Let families, wives, young kids and girlfriends come and let them have a pleasant fun experiences. Don't send them away with any negative view of our club at all. God knows we need all the support we can get at this time anyway. (I seriously wish I could uninvite people like you though.) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
