When we were sent down to D3, it wasn't just protestant, loyalists who rallied around the club. When Ryan Jack scored the winner against celtic in December it wasn't just protestants and loyalists who celebrated. The club's identity is that of everyone who supports it, not just a select group. Can I add we were never conceived as a club set up for the PUL community. This slowly developed once that lot came into existence for Irish catholic immigrants so naturally the Protestant faith followed Rangers in opposition probably everyone knows this but it’s an important part of our history (as is the PUL community btw) Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nope They play "for us" ...that's all Many became heroes also Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Terry Hurlock Loyal 12,133 Posted May 8, 2019 Share Posted May 8, 2019 Was speaking to a work colleague, who went on the march - he was saying there were quite a few in Rangers tops walking with them.

Lots of sympathy B I think you misunderstand. I was talking about a majority Irish Catholic playing squad and staff and if you would be OK with it, nothing to do with our support. I'd be surprised if you would be given what you've said before, but you did make a point about playing squad not representing the values of the club. No need to get abusive just because you don't want to answer the question. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
