AlBear. 8,499 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 But the way that some people are speaking to each other in here has been nothing short of shocking.Not just shocking. It's embarrassing and disgusting if I'm being honest. Not just in this thread but throughout the whole forum. I realise they are the minority and on the whole our support are true great people. I've been all over the world and I've not met a Bear yet that wasn't honest, respectful and polite. But this minority on here are very good at ruining my enthusiasm for this season. Perhaps this is just how internet forums work, been told before its not the place for me.I'm expecting plenty of insults etc from these posters over my opinion on this. Call me Uber, call me a tim I don't fucking care. I'm more concerned with being able to get up to Ibrox and watch my team than how I'm perceived on an internet forum.

It just hurts because personally I feel it embarrases the majority of our great support to those outside looking in. I hate anyone and anything that hurts my club or the image of our club.Was told this isn't the place for me. I think they're right. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they're right.I know how you feel and i agree that some people play the 'greatest fan' role, but from what ive seen they usualy get a earfull from other members, you cant change them but you can debate and discuss all things Rangers on the best forum around, (when you find it give me a shout and i'll join up ) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

1690KWilliam 170 Posted December 6, 2012 Share Posted December 6, 2012 He's obviously not as bitter over this as most of us. When you consider that their bitterness towards us has and will cost these spl club supporters dearly, I can see his point.I saw his quotes yesterday and I knew instantly there would be some on here giving him stick for it. Goughie is a True Blue, in my eyes, and everyone is allowed their opinion. I believe it's right to boycott the game but sooner or later we have to get over our bitterness or it will end up consuming us.Correct. we dont want to end up bitter as the rattlers. if we boycott grounds when we get back to spl its goin to seriously damage our chances of winnin the spl. do we really want to see the ira scum gettin into champions league season upon season and go on about the piggery havin the best atmosphere in europe??!!

Columbo 588 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 fuck him and any other that says forgive and forget, fucking toolRidiculous reaction to a man that was at the forefront of 9IAR, however strongly you disagree with the opinion he expresses labelling one of the clubs greatest captain's a 'fucking tool' and telling him to 'fuck off' shows a lack of respect considering all that he gave to the club.I personally disagree with Gough on this but that doesn't lessen my respect for all that he gave us Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

gordonb23 99 Posted December 7, 2012 Share Posted December 7, 2012 Went to the legends tour tonight with Richard Gough. Cracking guy.He basically said he definitley understands why the fans wanted the boycott but he personally disagreed with it, which is fair enough. He also said he would be worried that Rangers supporters who were against a boycott would go into the scumdee end and there could be trouble.

Just relaying on what I heard him say.I'm guessing his answer would change a bit in a room full of Rangers supporters rather than in front of the media.
