StublueKPL 524 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 I'll run this by you as I've said it countless times but I don't think you've seen it.I don't see the c,ub backing it if it contains any lines regarding Celtic blood, paedo blood or anything else. If we want this to work its goning to need to be one of the original versions that where on the old CDs and lps. It's our song and it should be back at ibrox. I still believe there is nothing wrong with the original version but as you know that ship has long sailed.So I think that's probably the road to go down. I just hope this time that we do go forward with thisthe original version is the one about fenians etc. The rangers lp/cd version etc was made up.

RFC Eagle 4,888 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 We will need to wait until rst are looking for money to see Fury post on here I know hes not the most popular poster on here but I genuinely don't think hes under any influence from any side (I'm not even sure he likes Jaffa cakes ). He appears to have some links with the media so he may be useful in that direction. Not every RST member is part of the 'cabal' that some on here have issues with!!

joker69 60 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 Well to be honest I think people should nominate themselves and show what they can bring to the table for example Blue Nosed Babe.But in keeping with the thread. D'Art, Boss , BlueNosed Babe, RFC52 and Fury if we can get him on board. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Whatever one person thinks is a "must", another will say is a "never".That's why it has to be as close to the song we all used to belt out at Ibrox. Anything that is too removed wont get sung and we'l all be singing the version we all want! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ForeverBlue1872 463 Posted January 4, 2013 Share Posted January 4, 2013 The most important part of the song that gets sung the loudest is the "Hullo, hullo" part. But personally speaking I don't think fans will sing another version as when the song gets belted out the original words will get sung as it's just a natural thing to sing the proper version even when you try not to.
