It is certainly more common now but as with you I don't see what it adds to the atmosphere other than a bit of colour. As my last couple of posts have shown I have lost interest in talking about pyrotechnics I love how our end looks in European away games with all the supporters club flags and banners.

I had a great view of that from the home end in Porto as I was next to the away fans. Inspiring to see that's for sure. Shame you let the side down and didnt go and join @Rfc52 et al on their flight over, youd have had a grand time... Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It fell short and effectively hit a cameraman. The wee fannie then ran across from the area he was in to the row behind me and shouted to his mate who was directly behind me "I hit a f*ckin cameraman" His mate told him he was a clown and they almost started fighting when a female steward intervened and wanted to lift the innocent guy. A number of us protested so she gave up but the wee fannie who was that brave he kept his scarf around his mouth was let off to return to his mates and big it up. I love the atmosphere they create but they are now getting out of hand and do these idiots realise or even care about the potential damage they are doing to our club, they need to start behaving like adults. If this wee cunt needed attention, he should've set the flare off in his fucking pocket! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's a good few people it drives up the wall that I have applied for an Irish passport. I've always had a British one and will renew it aswell but I voted to leave the EU and then applied for an Irish passport for convenience and it's amazing how much annoyance that can cause Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

TheCutch 4,340 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 I personally have no issue with them, but if you are going to the bother of bringing one into the ground, as least hold onto it for a bit like cunts do on the continent. Dont just light it and throw it to fuck like you didn't know what the fuck it was. 😂😂 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Just as well the op wasn't in the pub I was in later that night. The barmaid went mental. Some smoke off these things. Could hardly see my pint Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drunk and disorderly. 14,421 Posted November 5, 2019 Share Posted November 5, 2019 Thank fuck for flares. There was no atmosphere before their invention. Rangers supporters found it impossible to sing songs without them. Well known fact that flare manufacturers wrote our songbooks and pay for all the UB's season tickets. They also give money to charity and pay for our card displays. Yay!!!!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
