Tried and failed before.

No chance.

Who was the guy who took the ticket? Ross somebody from a supporters group?

Blyth

It doesn't work. It just builds a siege mentality and their own kind respond to that and take our seats. Attending and not spending within the ground probably more effective. Id rather  we avoided them and see them go out in early rounds to to the likes of Falkirk watched by a 2k crowd.

One thing the Board seems to have remained utterly silent and inactive on is what Rangers does about dealing with the 'active harm' clubs of which DU was one.   They have the papers, notes and files from those days when clubs were actively looking to harm Rangers.  They've had the time to read them and to understand the lines these clubs were taking and to absorb the comments made by their reps in meetings and in public.  But no calls for boycotts last season so I'm not expecting any for next season.   The Board has deliberately adopted a stance of stringent silence - bygones be bygones - its all in the past - nothing more to be said or done.    And as a Support we have tacitly accepted this.   As a Club and as a Support we may not have forgotten and may not have forgiven but as to what more is to be said or done by the Club the matter is simply consigned to history other than supporters reminding themselves on social media from time to time.   No active leadership from the Club .  Only ultra-passive, ultra-silent having simply moved on.    That's the end of it.   It's all only about just playing the league and cup games as though nothing had happened.     If anyone thinks the Directors in the Club think differently then it would be useful to point to any and all statements they have made about the active harm clubs and of any redress Rangers looks to achieve.  I can't find any.  It's effectively a closed chapter in the Club's history.     

Personally I would rather they were around to suffer as we return to the top while they look up at us, and wallow in their own mediocrity - that is revenge!

I'd rather they go bust before the season starts and Tannadice is turned into a car park tbh 

[pollok-bear 7,537]

I love following the Gers everywhere but I would be up for boycotting these manky bastards.

What's the chances of nobody taking a ticket? 

Just this one club, please.

Let's kill their club.

We receive 1/2 the revenue in cup games so would be a bit self defeating 

[giffnockger 4,840]

Understand both points of view but would personally rather be there belting out the Billy Boys for 90 minutes!

Stewart Robertson has buried the evidence in order to build bridges with the offending parties. He's a wee arse licker.

[mabawsa 888]

they are irrelevant these days. Might struggle to have a squad for next season or never mind a recognisable club. Oh well, hey ho, reap what ye sow!

[The Specky Forum Organiser 66,402]

Would you boycott a game at Ibrox or Hampden against them?

We need to get away from this whole boycotting nonsense.

[there'sonlyoneamoruso 1,724]

If we draw them in the cup the ground will sell out whether Rangers are taking the allocation or not. So DUFC will get 1/2 the gate money anyway.

Of course the way DUFC have acted towards us is disgusting, and the fans don't want to put money in Thompson's pocket after the abandoned game ticket fiasco. BUT, we would be better going and out singing those shitehawk bastards and backing the team.

[KeyserSoze 14,700]

Suggesting bears not to go and watch Rangers is fucking horrendous btw.

Aye right enough, so in actual fact a reduced crowd if we ever got drawn against them at home would make more sense if we wanted to minimise the "blue pound" going to them. Although that would again mean less money for the club. Seems a bit silly though.

Aw fucking geez peace. You know the thought behind it. We would have a real chance to bury these cunts.

[Jimfanciesthedude 24,997]

Maybe they will say bad things at a press conference, then we can really hold a grudge

Hardly, any money they'd get from a game against us would be a bonus they wouldn't be  expecting.

and you now know my thoughts in front of it.

Just because fans stay away for one cup game in which gate receipts are split 50/50 will never contribute to sinking them. More likely revenue streams, advertising and their own attendance figures will do that. Not a single game against us ffs

By suggesting a boycott you deny Rangers some cash and bears their day out watching the greatest club on earth - who'd actually truly think that.

 

[graeme_4 35,277]

Fuck boycotting. 

It's all about Rangers. Would rather back our team, than attempt to financially hit some diddy club. 

[With Heart and Hand 8,951]

I would hope the Club would back a boycott, but King is a shitebag so that will never ever happen imo.

I wont be going, hope they die before we can draw them in any cup

One big crowd from us could be enough to keep them afloat, hope all of our fans treat them the way they treated us. Hope they dont get us at Ibrox or the taigs at the Bill Cosby Dome, hope they draw teams like Peterhead and struggle for cash all season. Fuck them

Their fans will still be alive when the Club dies, let them watch our return from their living rooms Clubless instead of their shitey stadium

Nah - it's no fun if they are not there to be mocked 

[G.E.C. 19,093]

Highly doubt the current board would support a full boycott given the 20% share in gate receipts.

Exactly.

Technically if it was at Ibrox against them and we boycotted we would do them out of more money, because there would be a bigger crowd and it's a 50/50 split.

So the talk of boycotting only if we get them away doesn't make any sense at all.

[Vanoli 4,628]

Personally i'd rather go and scud them 5-0 while belting out the entire songbook and absolutely lording it over them. Never forget the Craig Whyte masks, go there and show them times have changed - Rangers never died, but Dundee United just might.
