LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 The amount of people on here getting all uptight about people calling McCoist names. Calling for guys to be banned because of it, the lot. Grow up ffs. Just cos he's a club legend doesn't make him exempt from criticism, the fact is he's useless as a manager and is turning us into a laughing stock.Maybe try and focus on that instead of getting your G string in a twist because another member has called him a tit or a cunt in the heat of the moment.

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Too many people trying to act like McCoists mammy Of course there's always a line but as you say people are angry and things get said in the heat of the moment Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frank Reynolds 3,359 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I agree that words like that shouldn't be used in relation to McCoist, but I'm not going to get up in arms if someone uses bad words, it's the internet ffs, people say shit.

Guest Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Calling a Rangers manager a cunt or a wanker is not criticism. Anyone who does it is a cunt themselves. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersFanBase 611 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 People got angry because I called him a Tit (though it was wrong and I apologized for it as it was out of anger) the reaction I got you'd of thought I'd walked up to the guy called him every name under the sun, and then denounced Glasgow Rangers as my team..

cameron1873 511 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Everyone has the right to criticize mccoist as a manager. To call the man a cunt is embarrassing and disrespectful. Whether you like him or not there should be no denying his achievements as a player has afforded him luxury of respectI don't think the person who posted it should be banned, what would be the point Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
PromDeAnglais 5,470 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 He'll always be a hero to me but he's just not a manager. I couldn't call one of my boyhood idles something like that but I can also understand there are a lot of us sick of our failings under him.

Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I think all legends deserve our respect, I think we all should have enough class to be able to conjure our opinion without delving into the gutter and calling him names which you really shouldn't call anyone - let alone someone who is a legend at the club you love.People calling McCoist a "cunt" - amazing anyone can actually defend that. Heat of the moment tripe? Someone might piss off another person enough for them to stab a screwdriver in their eye, but due to us not all being animals and having quite a large brain between our ears most of us have learned restraint.*Think* about what you're saying and defending.Incredible Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 Folk have lived a sheltered life if they think calling him a cunt or tit is worth getting upset about.People are paying a lot of money only to be pissed off with his appalling attempt at managing a team that should be head and shoulders above the opposition given the vast difference in talent.Let folk vent steam , I'd draw the line at tim insults like 'Fat Sally' though.

Jimfanciesthedude 24,540 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 its all in the contextCalling ally a cunt plain and simple is a no, obviously, no one connected to our club should be subjected to that,However calling ally a cunt of a manager, or a fucking clown of a manager (yes my list of them could go on) is acceptable imo as its an opinion of his managerial abilityBut tbh after some recent results and general season performances on the park, he'll fast lose any respect a lot of fans have for him Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We are supposed to be Rangers fans - try not to forget it.In the heat of the moment - aww diddums - I bet that type of defence works all the time in court. And let's not mix words here, the "insulting name" McCoist was called was "cunt".People have had their accounts terminated for much less for example: Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
superally07 387 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 I call him everything at games. As I do with the players. Ive always been the same and the way I see it is its because I care so much. I dont actually think mccoist is half the names I call him. If people get upset with it im not arsed. Ive never heard anyone complain at the games.

Guest Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 At the end of the day McCoist is one of us, a Rangers lagend, it shows complete and utter disrespect to call him a cunt. If anyone is deserving of our respect its Ally, im not defending whats happening on the pitch and I think he should step down but come on, criticism is fine but at the very least McCoist should be treated with respect on a Rangers forum. I dont think people should be banned but I think it goes without saying that that kind of behaviour shouldnt be allowed. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Feel free to call me sad if you want, but the irony is staggering. You may think it's trivial, I think it's despicable behaviour, I don't want McCoist as manager but I would never stoop that low to call a Rangers legend a "cunt".

sandyinroyalblue 16,478 Posted March 9, 2014 Share Posted March 9, 2014 criticism of mccoist in respect of his managerial record is fine but after what he has done for the club as a player i wouldn't use disrespectful language towards him,banning people for this is a step too far but lets try and keep it civil Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's why I started the thread, I don't think he's a cunt, I doubt the guys that said it really do either, but the over the top reaction to it is laughable IMO.
