disgruntled_bear 157 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 NO! A dirge sung by egg chasers and people who are not interested in football. That's utter crap. No reason we can't sing them both. There's no law says pick one or the other. Disagree how bad would it look if we sang FOS during the match, and then sang GSTQ at the end!

radlord 24 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 It would look great, DB! There's no divide between the two, if anything it would reinforce the point that Scotland is in the Union! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

shnollyRFC 0 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I'd love to hear it too but it really has little (or nothing) to do with Rangers so it wouldn't happen Plenty of songs with even less relevance are played every week, the Great Escape one for an example (not just a film theme tune, but a film directed by an American!). We play in the Scottish League, that's relevant enough for me Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MKGER 138 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I appreciate that most chants are there to wind up rival fans especially the tims but surely we would gain the same reaction by showing the scum that were Scottish (unlike them). Anyone else agree? i defo agree, we should sing it followed by gsoq Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SuperRangers 2 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I wouldnt want it sung anywere near the Brox. If ye wanty be a Jacobite then go to Hampden and do it with the rest of the Anti-British Tartan fannys. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 It's a shit song - maudlin, self pitying and about as rousing as a pint of night-nurse. It's also anti the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland. That's enough reason for me to wish it on the Tartanista alone. They are welcome to it. We should sing Rock around the clock by the fabulous beat combo Bill Haley & The Comets instead. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

chewbacca 8 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 I am Scottish and Proud but FOS would die within the first few notes if sung at Ibrox, just wouldn't work with the majority. To the OP - If you would like to hear FOS sung at Ibrox, why don't you start it off I look forward to hearing your feedback Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Steely 58 Posted November 9, 2008 Share Posted November 9, 2008 shocked at the responce our national anthem gets on here. seen a few threads like this though, always the same. That would be God Save The Queen. Flower of Scotland has NO official capacity at all. God Save the Queen is the British national anthem not the Scottish one. Just like Land of Hope and Glory is the English national anthem. Scotland the Brave was the Scottish national anthem but got dropped for Flower of scotland in the 90's somewhere.

If ye wanty be a Jacobite then go to Hampden and do it with the rest of the Anti-British Tartan fannys. Well seen that you don't know Scottish history if you think FOS is a Jacobite song. No wonder Scotland is in such a state. FYI. the song is refers to the victory of the Scots, led by King Robert the Bruce over the King of England, Edward II, at the Battle of Bannockburn in 1314. That about 300 years before the jacobite times. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And you have a cheek to come out with no wonder Scotland is in a state when you havent lived in the country for god knows how many years. To be honest i couldnt really give two fucks what the song does or doesnt refer to, its a dirge that was drempt up by Ronnie fuckin Brown of all people The Tartan army see themselves as some kind of modern day jacobites, Why do you think they resent what our club stands for so much ?
