UB banner - for or against it?

[left winger 14,270]

I assumed it was directed at the board. What was Beale’s quote?

The timing, the first game after Beale discussed the fact that he was upholding the standards of the club I hate to say it appears to be a dig at Beale and most others inside and outside our fanbase we see it that way. 

Digging out Beale while he's unbeaten is daft. If he doesn't win us the cup, sure. 

But now seems daft if they're actually digging him out and not just reminding everyone of those standards.

Perhaps meant well but came across bad.

Ma baws, you seen the forum?

I like the UB but they've clearly fucked it this week.

Boys and banners.  A dangerous combination.

I didn’t realise that the were the upholders of standards in the club though.

The banner isn't a dig at Beale, it is a dig at Stewart Robertson, Douglas Park etc.

They keep talking about maintaining the standards of Rangers, doing all this extra stuff.

But haven't upheld the standards that matter most.

Don't misreport it.

Think you’re misinterpreting it tbh.

Fuck knows why they’d put that up about the board the week before the cup final.

They put the banner up and sang the Tillman song, clearly a reaction to the walk-in goal and being pied by Beale / Tav after it.

Nah you're right, I interpreted it wrong. 

Actually thinking on it's a dig for giving them the goal back.

Thought what we did last week was pathetic and no one can convince me it was the ‘right thing to do’ but that banner today is totally unnecessary

Should have waited until Killie at home after we lose the cup final imo

Liking your positivity. 

[Ben10 2,293]

It's looks like a headline I'd expect to see in the daily record

[KingKirk 25,658]

100% understand why beale done it but we can't keep banging on about standards when our team has delivered 2 trophies out of 11.

[BlackpoolBear1952 388]

Dig at the board for me not Beale...

[Clemdog 39,389]

I agree with it. 

They're allowed to make their point and will always continue to support the team. 

I'd argue that it's not just aimed at Beale too.

The 11 years is nonsense. We won trophies when we were in the lower leagues and if we're not counting those trophies in the numbers then we can't count those years either as part of the 11.

[Swagger 8,089]

They are spot on. 

[FlippinEck 3,707]

Is it even a dig at anybody? I thought it was about raising the standard ahead of a cup final next week...? I get it's aiming it over a period of time but I saw it as a message ahead of the final. 

[bluenoz 30,918]

I'm not sure I get the timing of that. Especially since we are unbeaten in months.

[GOAT 30,449]

Didnae really see the point in it tbh. 

[.Williamson. 82,477]

Don’t honestly give a fuck about it 

[Unionblue 3,645]

Waste of effort , who are they pointing the finger at?  Just about  the whole country tried to bury our club, its time for unity, not  endless banner making, start with thrashing the vermin.

[Negri's lovechild 14,120]

Let's give Beale til after the cup final before bringing up the standards of the club.

The guy has got us to a cup final within a couple of months being in the job, and unbeaten at that.

Yes, it is likely a dig at the board (strange timing), but is clearly a dig at Beale and his quote from last week. I didn't agree with what we did, but got over it fairly quickly.

You have to differentiate between the standard of our football and the standards of actions taken by the club on and off the pitch. We should maintain the highest standards of both and just because the standard of our football performances is lower than we would all like is no reason to lower standards elsewhere.

at the time I was expecting to win trophies when we were down the divisions but looking back it was just stupid thinking and not realistic and bringing up 2 in 11 is just short sightedness by the idiots who created the banner.

Absolutes delusion if they think this will give the team more motivation for next week and it’s just poor timing.

[Number5 2,122]

If it's a dig at Beale then its fucking pathetic.

If it's a dig at our shambles of board then its more than welcome!

[Bad Robot 21,260]

This was better
