BridgeIsBlue 66,498 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BearInTheToon 1,575 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 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. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

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.

bluenoz 30,287 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 And people question why he doesn't speak out more often. Who made the notice of complaint. Clancy? the CO? Doncaster? Scottish football is corrupt to the core and I'm beginning to think we have no chance of stopping 10. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Howsitgoing 4,281 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 That statement just sums up our club at this moment of time. They acknowledge that what Gerrard quoted has been singled out against other managers quotes but will do nothing to fight that fundamental issue. They’re weak as pish!

Lord Lockin 3,900 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 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 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluenoz 30,287 Posted September 23, 2020 Share Posted September 23, 2020 If that tackle was made on the scum's prized asset there would be a national outrage. There is no protection for Alfredo Morelos in Scottish football. Absolutely none. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
