DrLaudrup 4,437 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 Can't say I'm bothered by this. The UK is a diverse country. This doesn't change or ignore our heritage but not all of our fanbase comes from that heritage. The Club has been sending out Christmas cards etc for years.

That doesn't make a shred of sense. Why would they acknowledge the 12th over, say D-Day or the Somme, for any reason other than to pander to people? Really?

McEwan's Lager 30,259 Posted May 5, 2019 Share Posted May 5, 2019 On a more serious point, the 12th, or the 15th of November, should be more widely celebrated in the UK. It is one of the most significant constitutional event in the history of the isles, probably second only to the Magna Carta. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's absolutely correct for the club to make a gesture like this to reach out to current and potential fans. If you scroll through the Twitter thread you will see a number of random Africans and Arabs commenting. That kind of PR for the club can only be a good thing. I agree, the club should be acknowledging it, as it should all major religions events. Im sure they posted something for the light festival too. I agree with STG that the club should acknowledge the 12th of July too based on many years of fans from northern Ireland traveling over and many fans in Scotland having an association with it whether it be through friends, family etc. Sadly the society we live in its almost frowned upon to be associated with the orange order which is why the club would never mention it. Good luck with your fasting. 16BlueSherbert90 and RangersMedia 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
