Club Statement


BridgeIsBlue

Recommended Posts

RANGERS are bemused that a notice of complaint has been raised against Steven Gerrard, for comments relating to the challenge which caused injury to Alfredo Morelos.

This is a bizarre charge which we will robustly contest at the scheduled hearing.

As is often the case, Steven Gerrard was asked for his view on a flashpoint in the match, with leading questions relating to the challenge that caused the injury and whether it should have been deemed a red card. On several occasions, he refused to do so.

Given the wide range of incidents in Scottish football so far this season, we are perplexed that this issue has been raised and cited for complaint.

Whilst our national sport faces an unprecedented crisis, it is baffling that resources are used to charge Rangers’ Manager based on a flawed and inaccurate interpretation of Steven Gerrard’s remarks.

Rangers will fully support its Manager against this charge during the scheduled hearing.

We sowed the seeds of our own vulnerability by not constantly highlighting and challenging shocking refereeing decisions and malicious comments by so called pundits etc, and crucially in comparison to other similar incidents involving other teams which were let go.

The club MUST now, finally, stand up and fight its corner.  Fat chance? Possibly.

Is the highlighted part true ? How can he be cited if he never said it should have been a red?

That statement as it stands is fine, but I very much doubt given our recent history with statements that we will do anything but pay the fine when it comes and that will be that, I would Iove to be proved wrong.

Just now, Cedrick said:

“If it was the other way around it be a different outcome” on RTV is that what he’s getting cited for ? 

Thing is, he didn’t even say it like that either 

last time we won the league, the fenians caused a ref strike half way through the season and got meetings given to them regarding it 

fenians are like BLM professional victims and bullies at the same time 

corrupt too

I did not know that one, he was certainly right if he said that, but then the truth is not allowed in this shit hole of a tarrier run country any more.

Gerrard should come out all guns blazing about the officials involved in Rangers games, it's nothing short of corruption and has been for years, the club should then back him all the way ,stop pussy footing about and highlight the corruption in the Scottish game

People wonder why Gerrard can’t come out and criticise the refs.  This is why!  We’ll be hit with fines, bans, and sanctions.

Doesn’t matter 

if it’s the truth it should be said 

sell Morelos and that gives us 1000 years worth of the worse fines possible if it means we can defend the club for once
