It may not seem like a lot but that many can sure cause a lot of trouble if they put their mind to it This has to be the most ludicrous post so far. We have people blaming the Police, the failure of the big screen, English casuals and now C*ltic fans. Who next the CIA? Can we just all accept that like all clubs there is a section of our support who are drunken violent scum and were waiting for an opportunity. They don’t deserve to be called Rangers fans but unfortunately that is how they identify themselves. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BoltonLoyal 2 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I personally don't think there were any there, i certainly didn't see anyone with a monobrow, stinking of piss and showng the physical signs of foetal alcohol syndrome. I do however think there were hundreds, if not thousands of interlopers from different 'firms' there on wednesday, which when added to the Rangers 'fans' from Scotland made for a very ugly environment. 'Fans' in this instance refers to people who came down for the day with no ambition other than to get pissed and have a ruck when Rangers lost.

Try to use some perspective Because we don't have over a hundred thousand at every game. Loads of people in Manchester will not have been to a Gers game in their life.

Can't believe you are still saying the big screen failed...and haven't you heard that there is an investigation into infiltrators. You are so naive it beggars belief...another one playing right into the hands of those who can't handle Ranger's success. As I've said before HELL BENT on destroying all good that has been done. Be proud of 199,000+ fans who were out to have a good time. This is incredible in itself, we should be very proud indeed. KEEP POSITIVE. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
vandelay 0 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 I cant see how any fan of one of the old firm would dare travel to the final of their rivals.

They just saw it as an opportunity to get bevied, no harm in that, but a few also were looking for trouble. Well, we have 50% of that at every home game Nothing like this has happened at any of the other away games in Europe, not even close And, you know 100% that these were Rangers fans how exactly? because the tv and manchester police said so? Which to be fair is the ONLY way you know unless you have some insider info Am getting sick to death of apparent* Rangers fans jumping on any negative aspects they can and having a go, was the same with the whole sectarian issues thing. Too many people seem almost desperate to believe the worst about us, and, that shouldnt happen from within *and i use the word apparent in light of the ridiculous over the top comments I have seen on here in the last couple of days, not just yours here mate.

LondonderryLoyal 2 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 RIGHT all those saying this post is ludicrous. I was going to start a seperate thread later, but this seems the ideal place. I'm off to work now, back to reality, so it'll have to be quick. Yesterday afternoon I was sitting in the hotel bar, waiting on some lunch, before heading home. A chap walks in. He is wearing a Rangers scarf. As I always do, I speak to him. He has a wierd accent, sounded north west England at the start, but then I detected twangs of southern Ireland. Anyway, after he had instructed the guy behind the bar to order him a taxi, 'Jimmy' he said was his name, started to talk to me again. He was just back from Manchester or whichener stone he had been under. An ugly looking cunt, with bad teeth. "Aye, I'm actually a Celtic fan" he said. That figures, thought I. I couldn't even be arsed to go in to wtf he was doing there with him. Sure enough, he told him he was from Mayo originally. He was just out of prison he said. But "it wasn't anything serious." Course it wasn't, pal. I was glad when the taxi finally turned up and the cunt left. They were there people, have no doubt. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
YankatOxford 0 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 This thread is ridiculous. If you don't understand the tribal nature football in this country then go home and watch rounders I don't know what the fuck rounders is, but I do know denying blatantly obvious allegations by attempting to divert responsibility to other parties based on thin air and conjecture is ludicrous. A minority of Rangers fans behaved violently and without a shred justification. To avoid further repercussions supporters need to take responsibility for overall behavior rather than submitting vague conspiracy theories. This thread is sickening. And ridiculous.

Muff 245 Posted May 16, 2008 Share Posted May 16, 2008 For once we should just hold up our hands and admit that there is still a minority of the Rangers support who are scum instead of trying to blame it on celtc. I very much doubt there would of been two or three hundred celtc fans in Manchester, to even think that is just absolutely ridiculous. Yes they are stupid b*stards but I very much doubt they are that stupid. The last thing I'd want to do is travel and mingle with my rivals on the day that they competed in a European Cup Final. I'd be as far away as possible. The English fans I can see but some of our 'so-called' fans are just as bad. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
