AlBear. 8,499 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 They could be about to steal our titles and we have falk insisting 'no more boycotts' ffs.Coz boycotts will stop them taking titles? Or if they do take titles it will make them give them back? If they take titles I'd hope we are prepared to do a lot more than just not turn up at away grounds.All I'm saying is I didn't like it. I backed it in theory. In action, seeing it played out. I didn't like it. If you want to boycott then that's fine. I'm not going to spend weeks insulting you or belittling you for making a choice you have every right to make. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
topgoalie 637 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 All it achieved was a larger more boisterous home support.Think you are losing all perspective here,all supporters clubs were in unison on the basis that the FIRST SPL CLUB we played we would boycott,showing a solidarity as a support against their actions towards our great club.Not one of our bus attended,[and i know of a couple that had comps for the game,plus our convenor must be one of the most avid Rangers supporters i have known over decades,home and abroad].Why some had to go is beyond me,selfish springs to mind.............

elephants stoned 2,994 Posted February 2, 2013 Share Posted February 2, 2013 They could be about to steal our titles and we have falk insisting 'no more boycotts' ffs.No more official boycotts will happen from the club, if fans want to stay away from sphell grounds and do so thats brilliant but we should not be making a song and dance about it and then having people going and making us look stupid. I dont support giving scum clubs money but i dont want us to look like a divided fanbase again. Any boycott should simply be fans dont turn up, although the 'hardcore loyal' always will at least we wont look stupid. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably the biggest problem with making it official is that it encourages the home support to come out ... especially in a one off game Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why no matter if we boycott, the opposition fans will just take up the extra tickets available. Remember, They Are Only Here To See The Rangers.
