    That club have no shame.Get your own house in order first before coming out with statements like that. There were two glass bottles thrown by their fans at us in the East Stand in the semi as well as bottles thrown at our players can't recollect any statements issued by them.

    I heard on Radio Scotland that there were eight arrests after the game. For an Old Firm derby , I would have thought this was remarkably low.

    Remember the days when arrests were highlighted along with the other match stats in the newspapers. Different times.

    Wish our club would come out and back our fans. Total silence after every Ibrox visit. Cowards.

    Harsh, and a futile exercise. There is not a chance of the media reporting a story that a few Hibs fans were hit by missiles at Ibrox or Celtic park. MSM have zero self-awareness. They cannot see past the Glasgow twins and the double standards. For The Rangers to issue a statement about a few of their fans being targeted is frankly as pathetic as it is laughable.

    The common link between every major disturbance at football in Scotland (and abroad when they play in Europe) is ... The Rangers Football Club 2012.

    I don't think it's harsh. Dempster continually crapped out of calling out the Huns.
    If she had, it would have been reported, if only for the backlash from the Huns.

    I think the one certainty that would come from calling out the Huns is that it would end up being the Hibs that would feel the backlash. It’s pointless whingeing about it, I know it’s not right but what is when it comes to the dastardly duo?

    The brass neck they have to come out with this statement -

    Fingers crossed Police Scotland take notice and make a big deal about it, as it sets a precedent. Should that happen we just need to call out every instance of their fans doing the same to ourselves.

    But what did Police Scotland actually do and did they have a remit/instructions to do anything other than contain thousands of orange and blue clad followers of a club?
    Marching in their thousands to City Centre ignoring covid rules

    A new club who won a first league title just a few years after they were formed and their followers wrecked George Square and other parts of the City in "celebration"
    Glasgow council taxpayer still footing that costs of that mayhem and destruction.
    Newco should have paid for the untold needless wreckless,damage and disruption to the peaceful citizens of Glasgow and their was plenty of that over those days.

    If sevco get to Seville,i trust our PC Pod and Glasgow City Council will be warning their counterparts in Seville of the incoming uncontrolable sunami of madness, aka no one likes us we dont care,and mayhem
    Sorry for any Hi-Bees and others who may have booked hoidays in the region around same times
    These hordes will flood the resorts in their thousands
    Sevilla ground only hold 50k Zombies wont get anywhere near half of those
    So a Manchester situation is on the cards




    Of course most of the above could be avioded if the Germans can beat the stickies the morn

    The west coast media don't care even if we made a statement.What gets me is that clubs high and mighty attitude when it happens to their fans. Their fans cause more trouble than any club. Look at their so called celebrations when they won the league. We have had to tolerate this thuggish behaviour from them and Celtic fans for as long as I have been watching Hibs which amounts to 56 years. Its a sad indictment on both these clubs that they still have scu# that behave like that.

    "Rangers Football Club have been accused of conspiring to illegally fix the prices of club merchandise.

    The Competition and Markets Authority (CMA) found the club colluded with retailers JD Sports and Elite Sports to keep prices of replica kits high from September 2018 to at least July 2019.

    The CMA said the three parties could expect heavy fines if found guilty.

    Rangers said they would review the provisional findings before submitting a response.

    The UK competition watchdog found that Rangers were involved in the alleged collusion, but only to the extent of fixing the price of adult replica short-sleeved home shirts."

    Another day in court.

    Ripping off their own fans… I’m sure the staunch bunch will find some way to defend them whilst at the same time blaming everyone else.

    Yep, a quick glance at Rangers Media, it’s all a distraction to keep Celtic stories out of the papers.

    Nothing surprises me with that lot.

    Haven't seen anything lately about the cinch debacle, nothing since they covered up their name/logo with tape. If there was any reduction in their sponsorship money then I hope it all came out of Rangers' share.

    Very cringeworthy. How can people trust the media to do their jobs properly? This BBC statement makes it clear that they can't.

    Imagine how Spence is feeling now. The Beeb are in full unionist attack mode away from football so it makes sense for them to try and appease the loyalist pitbulls. Pathetic. They'll run anti racism campaigns whilst praising the atmosphere at Ibrox without the slightest hint of irony.

    Jeez, what is our national broadcasters editorial "standard" on the indirect broadcasting of banned sectarian hate songs ?

    I think the trouble is it's someone else's national broadcaster, and it maybe suits that 'someone else' to foster as much division as they can in these last days

    Bingo. Orange walks are up by 129% since 2014. Someone is paying to bus in a lot of obese bigots from Ulster.

    Absolutely disgraceful from the BBC. Newco the victim. I expect Hibs to refuse entry to biased ‘pundits’ like Levein and Preston.

    I agree but it would be interesting if the Scottish government decided to enforce it's sectarian hate legislation and to see how the BBC covered it and complied or would their rather transparent bias remain on show?

    Will Chris McLaughlin now be allowed back into Ibrox?

    Pathetic from the BBC, utterly pathetic.

  30. #44099
    They've hung Chris McLaughlin out to dry on this one, it would be interesting to see what specific aspects of his reporting the BBC considered did not meet their editorial standards and why they think it didn't meet their standards.

    No specific apology or reference to specific articles/reports makes me think that they're just doing this to appease Sevco and their fans and get back into Ibrox as they think it was harming their coverage.

    I'd hazard a guess that Chris McLaughlin still won't be welcome to report from there and it'll be other reporters doing all the work.

    Precisely this, there is a deeper meaning here rather than football stuff. Trying to keep as many of them inside as they can. I suspect under instruction from those higher up in the BBC
