Was scrolling through the website and saw this article. Our display is shown near the bottom and as far as I can make out we were the only club to have a display in the stand... As a former soldier I am amazed at the level of support from Rangers fc. Why other clubs can't or won't do more for our armed forces is beyond me.... I'm proud to have served and proud of our club.

I'm proud to have served and proud of our club.Raith have worn a special away kit this season with the word 'remember' in place of a sponsor. Hearts have modelled their kit (and badge) on that of the one worn when WWI broke out. Alloa (and maybe one or two others) gave free entry to men and women who are serving in the armed forces.

Which regardless of your opinion on their fans signing through the silence, is of much more use to veterans than waving a bit of paper around.

The only team not to have a poppy on their strip. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which regardless of your opinion on their fans signing through the silence, is of much more use to veterans than waving a bit of paper around.What that amounts to is effectively a prepaid apology for the lack of respect shown by their club, players and fans.Scum from cradle to grave.

The Dude 20,026 Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 If that is true, they are all scum.Add Qots, Queens Park and Stirling Albion to the list. It should also be said that many teams don't wear them if they are playing away from home on Rememberance weekend (often choosing to wear them in their nearest home game). Some simply can't/won't afford to have strips embroidered or printed with a poppy.Edit: Falkirk wore black armbands at Ibrox. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest Posted November 10, 2014 Share Posted November 10, 2014 The vhermin pay 10k to help hide the fact that their fans have disgraced themselves every year by doing this, and their club does nothing to prevent it, nothing to discourage it, they let their fans away with murder and only do something after being pressured to do so. Time and time again these scum get away with this. They should be named and shamed but their club does whatever it can to protect them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
