folkestoneger 9,097 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 That would not be the same thing, as previously said.It IS the same thing. Spouting pc claptrap about under representation and shit just covers up the fact it is every bit as racist as a white only tournament would be.

Redwhiteandblue 3,330 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Did you hear about the 2 Asian junkies who snorted lines of Curry Powder.One has a dodgy tikka and the other is in a korma.I actually laughed at this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Inigo 33,338 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 It IS the same thing. Spouting pc claptrap about under representation and shit just covers up the fact it is every bit as racist as a white only tournament would be.'Pc claptrap' is a phrase that really means very little. I judge each thing I look at on it's own merits. Political correctness has nothing to do with it. The reason for the event and why there is no white one is as I said previously. Disagreeing with positive discrimination is another matter and would be reasonable. But blustering ill thought out phrases like 'every bit as racist as a white only tourament' is just ignorant nonsense. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Making excuses for it on any grounds just doesn't wash.Would a white Scottish only cricket tournament be justified on the grounds of under representation? No it wouldn't and neither was this tournament. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

AlBear. 8,499 Posted September 8, 2013 Author Share Posted September 8, 2013 Some people are really missing the point or are just over politicising, intentionally or not, a simple case of the club making efforts to incorporate the community. Ah well, thread went better than expected anyway, give yourselves a pat on the back RM posters. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah well, thread went better than expected anyway, give yourselves a pat on the back RM posters.Personally I'd leave the inclusive community arse-kissing to the beasts across the city, that's their sort of thing.We've even sent Broxi Bear to Sheik (spelling) functions in the past ... should send him to a parade or the big walk - only being 50% serious ... but my point is that we seem to go out of our way to include anyone and everyone in things like this while making an actual effort to move away from the more traditional aspects of the Rangers community fan base Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The mhanks are successful with that, we should be trying to be better than them at it. They promote their Irish connections whilst appealing to new markets as well.In terms of minorities, the more that go to them the more it will benefit them. The narrower we are, the more it will be to our detriment.By all means we should promote and celebrate our Unionist/royalist roots, but that shouldn't mean we have to exclude everything else.

Do a bit more on that front and make the fans feel involved then we can look at including others. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BLUEDIGNITY 34,086 Posted September 8, 2013 Share Posted September 8, 2013 Funny how bbc sectarian Scotland haven't shown this on any of their bulletins but then again there was a big charity do at the saviledome which has just been shown so they probably didn't have enough cameras to cover it !
