The Ibrox Derry 8,904 Posted August 24, 2019 Share Posted August 24, 2019 Put simply, UEFA is a Popish organisation. I don't expect anything less from them. They tried to ban us from Europe for 3 years in 1972, after we had the audacity to win one of their competitions. Granted, the fact that we battered fuck out of Corrupt Franco's stormtroopers didn't help matters either 🙄 Fucking love The Rangers so a dae bornabear, bluenoz, BLUEDIGNITY and 1 other 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If Lawwell had any if this power folk seem to think he does, celtic wouldnt be up on charges in front of UEFA regularly. Regularly? Really ? A few slaps on the wrist for very serious transgressions under the remit of a very heavy-handed governing body? The same organisation already severely criticised for failing to stop the rampant racism in eastern European leagues?

They were regularly punished by uefa, but it was pocket change fines not stadium closures, that’s why their fans didn’t care and continued their antics To my knowledge their scumbag fans haven’t cleaned up their act, but it was 2017 that they were last charged, how long has liewell been involved with uefa or the ECA? 🤔 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This has been the whole argument in the last 24 hrs. it's not that we shouldn't sing TBB because we shouldn't, it is that fines, suspensions are not equally shared. Don't give a fuck if someone mentions whataboutery to me. There is an obvious bias and it is not a conspiracy. Has Lawwell got his paws on this? I say highly likely based on who the match delegate was that night. He might not be directly involved at UEFA but he is sleekit.

They didn't get a section closure because it was the harshest of the available penalties for what they were charged with. Ours was the only penalty for what we were charged with.

What you’re describing is more than a “little chat” it’s a conspiracy. It’s suggesting that Peter Lawwell has influenced numerous people employed by UEFA in an effort to unfairly target Rangers. Why would they do as Lawwell says? Has he bribed them? There’s no evidence to support any of this. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
