RFCRobertson 11,794 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I was in Copland front, hardly any singing/chanting from the whole stand bar when we scored and Harry Forrester. Union bears were singing but didn't hear billy boys, heard no surrender, a waghorn song and generic Whooping. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know it's unpopular to say so but if something potentially hurts the club then you just shouldn't do it.Just cos they get away with it isn't an excuse either. Two wrongs don't make a right.Anyway I expect abuse for saying that but how I feel Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tontospal 1,116 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 I would love everyone who attended yesterday to get together to sue him and his paper for libel of us as a support. Ideally the club would do it, especially on the grounds that it damages our corporate brand, but we all know that's a non starter.It would also get this topic to be debated in public and offer an opportunity to establish what is/isn't sectarian and what is/isn't deemed acceptable by the club, the legal and football authorities.I did not hear any sectarian singing yesterday and this gives us a chance to defend ourselves but also address the media agenda against us.I disagree with the point about drawing attention to this in here. A small number will read it in here whilst thousands will read the paper, most significantly advisors to (and) politicians and others who will see it as further 'evidence' of our big, bad, bigoted support.The message and myth will not go away unless we challenge it.The only way to do this is through the courts.

Darth Bear 15,726 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 The only way to react to Celtic singing pro IRA songs, racist anti British songs and throwing flares about is to try and point the finger at Rangers.These so called journalists are more full of shit than a Celtic fans lidl bag Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brackley 1,412 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 He's actually right. I did hear sectarian singing yesterday. The Stranraer fans were singing that well known sectarian song - The hokey cokey. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

novosleftboot 6,358 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Bill leckie seems to suggest we were guilty of this yesterday?Anyone any idea wtf he's gibbering about?It's possible he heard some - Maybe he was in my neighbour's house?!

Tiger Shaw 31,997 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Why not? its the Rangers anthem. Theyve got songs about the Billy Boys but dont sing the Billy Boys, yet call themselves Ultras and write shit like ACAB everywhere.Mate if the UB were to start belting out The Billy boys the club would ban the group in a heartbeat and the boy with the loud speaker would get his front door kicked in by salmonds stormtroopers, charged and probably sent to prison for a few months, they are watched and filmed every fucking move by old bill and stewards. just waiting for an excuse. Maybe you should get up of yer arse, stand in front of a cop and sing it yourself instead of having a go at others who don't. As for calling the section the creche, I'm a BF1 season ticket holder, and I see plenty of older men in the section enjoying the atmosphere . Sure there's a lot of young boys but I'd wager that the majority of the main lads from the group are of a similar age to you or older. I'm guessing you're early 20's ?Was there yesterday and fuck all sectarian songs were sung, BL is a lying bigoted bampot, fuck him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SasaPapacLoyal 348 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 It's pish like this that makes you wonder if there's any point changing our song.

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 He actually states something like "more banned illegal songs where heard at Ibrox from a so called family stand"Again factually incorrect as the broomy read is the family stand not the front. I kinda wanted to know what songs he was referring to as I heard nothing dodgy at all. I get that RFC .All this stuff does my head in though .When you see what the rodents get away with ,without as much as a peep from any of the so called fair press .To be fair to Leckie ,he does go after them on occasions but never as much as he is calling us out for stuff .Sick of all the press ..I do believe sine die bans have to start being given out though .

Bydo 3,455 Posted January 11, 2016 Share Posted January 11, 2016 Lot of shite.There was NO sectarian singing heard from my seat in SJ5. In fact, there was barely any singing at all, bar some cringey efforts from the UB."Na Na Na Na, Na Na Na Na, Hey Hey Hey, Glasgow Rangers."
