Mental that people are giving up on it already after years of desire to see the atmosphere improved. It’ll take time - like anything. It’s early days but it was better in the Broomloan. Atm it’s not even debatable. It’s only BR is the family section btw, they were never in the family section of the stand Trying to label a stand at Ibrox as being historically a “beasts” section is embarrassing aswell mate dougie76, 16BlueSherbert90 and JackAlex93 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's not hard to come up with a scenario ffs, they were clearly better off there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I quite enjoyed the atmosphere with them there today tbh. But agree the megaphones pish. Happy to contribute to a better quality one. Never be a better quality one.

JoeTheShow 45 Posted 21 hours ago Share Posted 21 hours ago The issue you have is that you have now put a singing section in a stand where the majority of folk don’t get off their seat, Leaving the non UB members who joined in the songs still sitting in the broamloan or the broamloan end of the enclosure/main stand and Govan. not a dig at the Copland stand but in the last 20 years or so, it’s always been quiet compare to the other stands. I know several folk who sit in the CR and they don’t stand up and sing and didn’t want the UB coming. So I assume there will be a majority with the same outlook.

UB maybe at times act like wee neds by god do they bring an atmosphere, i'd give anything to have the away fans who constantly travel away to games who constantly sing non stop for 90 minutes compared to a library style atmosphere or just groan and hiss because of a wayward pass.

Loyal72 13,808 Posted 12 hours ago Share Posted 12 hours ago This was proposed to make them more visible behind the goals in the middle of stand to encourage Rangers end into singing. They've been put slightly to the side, can't see them on TV, the Copland doesn't want to join in with what's going on, and we've effectively barriered them off from our own supporters with stewards, while people tell them to be quiet, sit down and shut the fuck up etc. Seems a shitshow. But then it's been organised and overseen by Rangers, so what did we except? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Even heard shouts towards the wee guys with the megaphones to shut the fuck up. Seems like a bad move all-round. Would’ve worked well in BF. I also think too many in Copland Front are set in their ways to join in. I'm behind them so can't say for the full 90 minutes, but watching the highlights they seemed quite isolated. Jury's still out on this one. Prso's headband and dougie76 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
.Williamson. 87,413 Posted 11 hours ago Share Posted 11 hours ago Just have a group in the Broomloan under the name Broomloan Front and then the UB in the Copland and the whole ground can be louder. They can shout songs to sing across the pitch at eachother with their megaphones Theres that sorted Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

left winger 15,624 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago I saw one guy stand up and clap along in the section beside them once, but apart from that I didn’t see any other folk joining in. A couple of songs did start up in the Broomloan, though, and the UB joined in. But for most of the game, the background noise just came from the other end of the ground.

Tiger Shaw 32,040 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Read a few comments on here even one aimed at me about the self entitlement of the UB for wanting to stand and sing at games. I’ll spin that around what about the self entitlement of the lazy boring bastards that want to sit on their arse the full game and groan and moan constantly then shout abuse at the people who want to actually try and create an atmosphere that we can all be proud off. The UB aren’t the problem the problem is the people who think cause they’ve sat on their arse in silence in the same seat for twenty’s years they expect everybody else around them to do the same thing, I’ve heard things like sit doon these seats have been in my family for years fuck off back to the Broomloan, thats self entitlement right there. Ive said it and ill say it again nothing stays the same forever, as a support we’ve got to move with the times or be left behind. The beast have two singing sections and as far as I’m aware their boggin support in general back them, our support just give abuse, try to ridicule and are deliberately trying to make this move as difficult as possible because of their self entitlement to a seat and to sit in silence.

I get the point you’re trying to make mate but it isn’t really self entitlement to want to sit down in a stadium that’s meant to be all seated I’d rather stand too fwiw but what this episode has taught me so far is I’m better staying in the BF than moving to the Copland for that Tiger Shaw and The Beast 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

See to be honest mate I loved my seats in the Broomloan right next to the stairwell. and didn’t particularly want to move , also think the lads get far more support from other fans around them the Broomloan side of the ground with the west enclosure Broomloan rear and parts of the Govan joining in I’m not sure the Copland will ever properly get on board with the UB because too many people are stuck in their ways and not open to change, that’s sad because it’s the traditional Rangers end it’s where the atmosphere should be generated from but the majority of people can’t be arsed.

graeme_4 37,625 Posted 9 hours ago Share Posted 9 hours ago Don’t think it worked very well yesterday tbh. As long as they’re not blocking folks views, then stand and sing away. Think sitting near to the megaphone guy would be an absolute pain in the arse. Be interesting to see how it works on Thursday with a ‘bigger’ game / atmosphere.
