Just how dull...

[Gaz92 966]

Was the game before BF1 came to life?

It was probably the longest 13 minutes I've experienced at Ibrox, and I don't think it was any coincidence that it coincided with a very lethargic start by the players. It was just flat, flat, flat.

Fair play to everyone that contributes towards that section, the place just wouldn't be the same without you!

was there a reason for them being quiet until bursting into life in the 13th minute?

Not sure why the 13th minute, but it was a silent protest about police treatment last Tuesday I believe.

[ForeverBlue_Since91 2,895]

Whats a silent protest going to do? It shows us the fans that the unionbears make a big difference but, the polis are not going to care if they stay silent or not.

At least they have the brains not to boycott there own stadium because of the polis though.

So maybe we should all make a bit more effort to show how much we appreciate them then?

At the end of their protest, I started clapping them, and was disappointed that those around me didn't join in.

But boy what an impact when BF1 did burst in to life.

And for the remainder of the game they were far more entertaining than most of the footie today.

Well done BF1 - I appreciate you

It was the thirteenth minute and twelfth second the Union Bears were silent until, work it out

[jamess 3,435]

It was night and day, and surprised no more posts on this. Amazing how quiet 40k can be without a lead.

The Clyde fans thought they had won a watch for 13 minutes.

Then they got well and truly silenced!

they done it last year aswell

[plumbGER 24,518]

took my boy to 1 game last swason v hibs and today was his 12th game and it was the first time u heard him complain.....until th UB and blue order burst into song....after that he was happy...keep it up boys...no surrender

[thistleman 52]

i would like to thank the guys in the blue order and the union bears for what they bring to every game without these guys the stadium would be like watching a silent movie i sit in east enclosure and apart for these guys everywere else is mostly silent i tell my son that the whole stadium used to be like this times have changed big time these guys deserve to be treated a bit better off the stewards and the police they may not be perfect all the time but i think the treatment they get sometimes is shocking i just wish we had another 20,000 of these guys singing for 90 minutes anyhow hope you all had a good xmas

and all the best for the new year watp

I sit in BR1 and was also silent until they started singing as I was taking part in the protest, maybe others were doing the same, never the less though, wouldnt be the sane without them.

Hmm Is that a typo or not? works either way

[Thermopylae 15,287]

It really does take a lot to get excited by such pitiful opposition so full marks to UBs

[Blue Nosed Babe 20,822]

I appreciate them as long as they do nothing to cause problems for the club. I hope the police were better today.

Any news on that front?

[Non_Sucumbi 876]

Surprised that any 'group' is needed to create an atmosphere at Ibrox.

In ma day........... oh well that's another story.

Why can't we bring back a standing section in the enclosure????

[IanFerguson2012 123]

It just shows that everyone else thinks they don't need to sing anymore. You used to get songs and chants starting in one part of the ground and continuing in another. Now we have organised singing in BF1 with the occasional assistance of BF2 BF3 etc and the only people who join in are those who get pointed at for 'Ally McCoist's Blue & White Army' (excluding the songs at the beginning of each match).

A few fans in the main stand at the west end did try to get singing going during BF1's silence but it wasn't more than a dozen or so.

[Band of Brothers 10,303]

I take my hat off to the UB for creating an atmosphere without it I'd probably fall asleep with my face in my jock pie. I like the idea of bringing terracing in as I'm sure a German team have the system where the seats can go back in with ease. East n west enclosures were always cracking pity that status has gone.

[Bad Robot 21,333]

The UB are really brilliant and no one can fault their 100% effort every game but I reckon what theyre doing is backfiring. The rest of the stadium don't participate and leave it to them to create the atmosphere. The problem is not them its the rest of our fans who really need to step it up and follow their lead. I also think they need moved away from the corner and maybe that will help.
