SteveJ 743 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 I'll take the word of the flag institutehttp://www.flaginsti...the-union-flag/It is often stated that the Union Flag should only be described as the Union Jack when flown in the bows of a warship, but this is a relatively recent idea. From early in its life the Admiralty itself frequently referred to the flag as the Union Jack, whatever its use, and in 1902 an Admiralty Circular announced that Their Lordships had decided that either name could be used officially. Such use was given Parliamentary approval in 1908 when it was stated that “the Union Jack should be regarded as the National flag”. Then we agree to disagree - no bother to me either way, Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Smile 26,622 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 You seriously feel dishonoured by a UJ coming down and being replaced by a Saltire for a few hours?God, what a drama over nothing.The saltire usually always there and has been for some time.

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Lets go with flags.Who cares? Scotland have rented the stadium for a Scotland game. The Saltire is appropriate for this occasion.Unoffended Loyal. You voted yes Indigo but it sure offends me fucking taking the Union flag down to appease these nationalist bastards .An absolute disgrace from our club and a total sell out .Ps fuck you fuckpig bastardised Police Scotland who probably influenced club to do it .Until Cameron grows a set of balls and makes decisions to protect the honour of the Union flag ,then this Pitiful Country will continue to show this sort of contempt for the flag that the whole Country decided they wanted to remain part of .ScumBastards .The lot of them .

Domthenbud 899 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Reading some of the posts on this thread it would appear that for some we are no longer the quintessential British club.It may not be a major issue to some but it still surprises me that some find this somehow acceptable.We didn't hand over Ibrox, we rented then the pitch and stadium and the SFA should have respected the fact that we fly our nation's flag and are proud to do so. As someone else referred to, I would be interested to know if the portrait of the Queen was left in the dressing room.you on depression tablets. Get a fucking grip.

Inigo 32,687 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Nobody has a problem with the Saltire being flown but the Union Flag is always flown at Ibrox and should not have been removed. I always thought that our fans shared my pride in seeing it flown at Ibrox but I'm obviously wrong with that assumption.You're not wrong. We (well, me, anyway) just don't get ridiculously sensitive about it being taken down for a Scotland match for a few hours!It's not a Belfast-like attack on your identity. You're digging for offence mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
smitzer007 198 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Naw, it's the truth. Our support has became a shadow of it's former self, it's fucking pathetic these days.I get the feeling your the type of fan who wouldn't have gave a fuck if they took down the picture of the queen today aswell.Infact, you probably wouldn't give a fuck if they took it down for good i'm guessing.I wouldn't mind if it was taken down for today but I would mind if they didn't put it back!

Rfc#1. 1,877 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 No wonder the SFA have not brought the national team to Ibrox since 1999 - what a fucking pathetic thing to get your balls twisted on.Who'd have thunk it a nat and a sfa supporter.

Inigo 32,687 Posted October 11, 2014 Share Posted October 11, 2014 Its not taken down when on national telly. So why was it taken down today cause Scotland are playing doesn't cut it.. Any other reason?I've explained that already. It's a bloody Scotland game ffs. You're being too sensitive. Expecting anything else is just hunting for offence.
