The Dude 20,026 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 You never answered my post 419.Does that mean I am right then or do you only answer the posts you can spout pish back to?I understand the point you made however it just seems like a convenient get out. There is no denying that people were killed in Ulster simply because they were catholic. Nothing to do with any rebels, just roman catholics.

keithgersbear 3,225 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 So so sad seeing people trying to degrade the heritage and culture of a people who follow Rangers. Imagine being criticised for singing songs about the brave Volunteers of the UVF. I think those people would be better off supporting that club.

thegummy 4,472 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Whe was the last time the UVF bombed a major city in the UK dickhead?For the most part the rebels killed innocents and the UVF killed rebels.Fuck off with your same as each other shite.Should be ashamed of yourself with that statement imo.Pretty sure you're the only person in this thread who is referring to the 1960s UVF. Everyone else has stated they are referring to the original UVF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BRICKY1872 118 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 I've never heard us sing about h*ns either. I've only been going to games since 2002 mind you.We used to sing "Go home ya h***" to the tims all the time in the 70's and early 80's. They have absolutely no real idea why they refer to us as thus. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SkylineBlue 23,454 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 The club is nothing to do with being a loyalist/ unionist/ monarchist or anything else. It's about supporting Glasgow Rangers. Our club was not founded on a political, religious or social agenda. People have used the club as a vehicle to peddle these ideals. What i have asked you, is to back up what you have posted with facts.Ridiculous question. I'm surprised you cannot see how ridiculous it is. There is absolutely no record, to my knowledge, of the founders of the club stating the reason for forming Glasgow Rangers was to drive forward any of the values I was talking about. Therefor, that is not the basis of the club. If it was formed for a particular agenda, it would have been clearly stated. Your question is the equivalent of asking somebody to prove that asda was not formed as a vehicle for the hatred of blacks. There's noone on record saying that it wasn't, but it's the natural and logical position to assume since noone has said it was.

Prince of Orange 84 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Glasgow RangersFixed. And before anyone asks, no, I don't sing it in any song. When I was younger yes but not for a long time. I always replace the word Glasgow with Famous. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Puff candy 22 Posted August 28, 2012 Share Posted August 28, 2012 Didn't David Murray build Ibrox with his bear (sic) hands? and then after that he want and signed Graeme Souness as manager? Or maybe, just maybe, not giving a flying fuck about Irish politics has no bearing whatsoever about my love for my club.Souness was at ibrox before d.
