Tartan sectarian army now officially Scotlands shame

Booing any anthem is wrong but I'm not going to jump on my high horse about it as we're a club who has been fined and warned regarding offensive/sectarian songs and had a long history of not signing someone because of their religion. So before we heartily fire into others perhaps some inward reflection would be wise.

This has got to be a fcukin wind up ?

How is it? You're on the offended bus mate. Next stop, home.

IT was the great taboo Graeme Souness vowed to smash when he walked into Ibrox.

For decades, Rangers had refused to sign high-profile Catholic players, but it was a policy the club knew they could no longer condone.

Souness joined Rangers as player-boss in April 1986 and immediately spoke of his intention to dismantle a policy that had earned the club widespread criticism from all but their most hard-core support.

He eventually succeeded in July 1989, when Mo Johnston joined the club.

But Terry Butcher has told how Souness wanted his new skipper from Ipswich Town - his first major signing - to be Catholic.

However, the manager was kept in the dark for weeks as Butch refused to reveal his Church of England background.

Tel reveals all in his new book, Butcher: My Autobiography, being serialised in the Record and our sister paper, The SundayMail.

He said: "At the time, it was a very strong principle that Rangers did not sign Catholics, but Graeme Souness was no fool and particularly anxious to break the mould.

And for the record there were many kaffliks on our books long before 1989.

what song did we get fined over.

[Polo 1,433]

I watched Scotland beat Georgia at Hampen in a bar in Aberdeen. The bar was rammed and almost everyone there was shouting things like "get into these h** fucks" (i.e. the Georgians ), "you fucking h** bastard" (at Ferguson) and booing all Rangers players etc.

FFS. It's an absolute disgrace and what happened last night just goes to show that prejudices are carried over into the national team support.

Even the bheggars' players get my support for 90 minutes during Scotland games.

Why the fuck were Scottish fans booing Rule Britannia when we're part of the fucking Union?! :willy:

Apologies for all the obscenities. Rant over.

http://www.theredcardscotland.org/news/200...ctarianism.html

Rangers were fined £13,300 and severely censured by UEFA yesterday over sectarian chanting by their supporters. The punishments were handed down after a five-hour hearing at UEFA's headquarters in Switzerland.

A five-man UEFA Appeals Body partially upheld a challenge to the original judgment in the case of April 12, when Rangers were fined £9000 for an attack by a fan on the Villarreal team bus, but were cleared of sectarian chanting.

UEFA promptly launched an appeal against the latter part of that verdict, which resulted in yesterday's hearing. The new judgment has effectively overturned the original decision on sectarian chanting, resulting in a sanction for Rangers and a strongly-worded warning about their fans' future conduct.

Rangers last night said they would not be appealing against the decision, and issued a club statement urging their supporters to stop singing bigoted songs.

In an unusual twist, UEFA yesterday summoned a number of new witnesses to gauge a range of Scottish opinion on the nature of bigotry in Scotland. These included Richard Holloway, the prominent former Episcopal Bishop of Edinburgh.

UEFA presented video evidence of Rangers fans singing at Ibrox, and The Billy Boys was identified by observers as a song containing anti-Catholic lyrics.

The UEFA video also contained evidence of Rangers fans chanting abusive slogans about the Pope, which the Appeals panel agreed was indisputably offensive.

A statement issued by UEFA said: "UEFA's Appeals Body has today partially upheld the appeal made against [the] decision concerning Rangers FC and their UEFA Champions League first knockout round [matches] against Villarreal.

"UEFA appealed against the decision to find Rangers not guilty of alleged discriminatory chants by supporters at both legs [against Villarreal]. Rangers have been fined €19,500 and severely warned about their responsibility for any future misconduct of their supporters in relation to discriminatory behaviour."

Last night William Gaillard, a UEFA spokesman, added his own voice to the Rangers judgment. "These songs are forms of discrimination, they are insulting to sections of the Scottish community, and we have to try to eradicate them," he said. "This is why this decision has been reached."

Not on any bus except proud of what I am and not scared to defend it unlike you who is willing to take the lies of the media and the lies of the great unwashed up the ass and accept it. Very strange though a supporter of 35 years willing to accept the smears that have been thrown at the fans and The Rangers Football Club. I've supported them 50+ and get more determined to defend them the older I get.

And the papers are of course correct all of the time aren't they? There were many Catholic players signed for Rangers before Mo Johntone, that has been proven and is irrefutable. You are simply being an apolagist and trying to justify the ills of other supporters by bringing up our own. The media and our haters absolutely love fans like you.

The fact of the matter is that Rangers have absolutely nothing to do with how some idiots act within the Tartan Army. In recent years Rangers and us supporters have been highly admirable in our efforts to rid our support of sectarianism, and to a large extent we have succeeded. But lets not look at the rabid sectarian industry still operating within the Celtic fanbase, lets not talk about how disrespectful and demeaning the Tartan Army are towards other nations, lets instead slag our own supporters for reasons which are either in the past or downright lies.

WHAT THE FUCK IS WRONG WITH YOUR COUNTRY?!?!?!?!?

[BLUE CYCLOPS 26]

I was listening to an interview on Radio Ulster this morning. The bloke being interviewed had travelled (from Belfast) to Hampden for the match last night. He said there where about 200 of them from East Belfast with their NI strips and Ulster flags. They had booked into a hotel near Hampden for a meal and drinks prior to the game.

Two of Glasgows finest (polis) told them to remove their flags as they were considered to be sectarian. The organiser of the party complained to some NI politicians who took the matter up with the Scots police.

The NI fans subsequently received an apology from the police commander.

But since when has the Ulster flag been sectarian? How far and how long must Irish republican demonising of all things British/Protestant/Rangers/etc,. be tolerated. It appears now that the demonising has been so accepted as to be considered normal. It,s not questioned anymore, it is accepted that we are sectarian bigots and turning the other cheek is a waste of time.

We are damned if we do and damned if we don,t.

Unfortunately many things my friend. It doesn't help one jot when an over-compensated minority don't even recognise themselves as Scottish (which they are) nevermind British (which the also are). Then you have the others who are fervently anti-British/English/Monarch. In between you have the silent majority who are either too apathetic or scared to speak up and teach these morons some sense.

I agree with that and it deserves recognition, however since you accept we've 'been there' should we really be hammering into anyone else who's at it? Should we get on our high horse? That was the point of my comment.

Certainly it's worth commenting on and emails and letters should be fired off to the usual suspects in the media pointing out there is no difference between what sections of the TA are doing and what Rangers fans were pilloried for and highlighting the different approach of the media in covering it.

Now is the time to put these people on the spot.
