CR3 12,761 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 seeing a bit of backlash from our own fans on Twitter about the songs included last night, probably with ‘super Rangers’ and others with add-ons right after singing ‘stick your friendly’ aimed at the board, as if the away support sung those songs out of spite to that friendly decision. I get the anger directed at the ‘friendly’ as it is a farce and just a money maker but that’s for another thread. Don’t want to open a can of worms, just these songs got us in bother with that FARE mob in Europe and could maybe see retrospective fines as they were audible. I’ll be on the fence in terms of the discussion but would say I do join in pretty much all our songs at games, interested in what people think here after seeing the split on Twitter. Although, I’m guessing there will be more people who want to sing them loud and proud and a few others who might be a bit more lefty or progressive thinking ‘it’s 2022’ and certain songs shouldn’t be sung if they hurt us financially again.

The phrase bite your nose off to spite your face seems kinda on-point if the support were wanting to sing them again to get the club fined to somehow make a U-turn on the friendly decision I guess.

McEwan's Lager 30,887 Posted March 3, 2022 Share Posted March 3, 2022 Last night was an own goal for the support v the board in my view. Club hierarchy want the support to be sanitised. They will be thinking they made the right decision in relation to Australia last night if that's the type of opposition against it. I also really don't want to go to Rangers games and listen to songs about them. There was a good 10 minutes in the first half last night where several consecutive songs were about Celtic.

Popular Post theweebluenose 4,335 Posted March 3, 2022 Popular Post Share Posted March 3, 2022 Tarriers recently had a banner calling us H*** last Old Firm, the full IRA songbook giving it "Go on Home British Soldiers" and "Fuck King Billy and John Knox" and cunts are greeting about a few disparaging songs about the Pope and celtic's Paedo scandal. No wonder the board thought the Australian friendly was fine, we have far too many subservient wet wipes in our support these days.
