I got spat on by John McDonald as he was going up the tunnel after getting sent off at Easter Road. It's not just their fans that are vile.This quote is hidden because you are ignoring this member. Show Quote

not related to the spitting incident but does he have someone with him at each game?

Now one of the is threatening him on Facebook and genuinely trying to pull the moral high ground about name calling. Really classy as always.

I was around 10 years old, and with a friend and we went to a Rangers game at Easter Road, having told our parents that we were going up town to buy records. We were set upon by a group of men in their 30’s and possibly even 40’s, who came off a Rangers supporters bus and saw our Hibs scarves. They spat, punched and kicked at us, calling us, predictiably, fienian *******s. Of course we had no knowledge of what this meant. The most disturbing thing was the attitude of the other Rangers supporters, who just laughed or egged on those strange, inadequate men whom I would now regard as cowards who were no better than paedophilles.
It took me a long time not to judge all Rangers supporters in the same way. The thing that I find really galling is that many of the sneering onlookers would probably normally be reasonable family men, who were poisoned by the bizarre and malignant culture of that club and the others who associate themselves with it.

Blind Hibs Fan Spat On At Ibrox

I replied My Fathers a Mason and i be got a Degree but your wasting your time with that element of their support
Another time me and my son and a friend were followed fora few miles by a group of Northern Irish speaking Rangers minded bigots They just kept saying We best you you Catholic *******s They even followed is in to a supermarket and made my son so nervous he dropped his bottle of drink and it smashed on the floor
Am sure a lot of fans will have their own stories and in fifty years time it will still be going on
I have no idea how you stamp this out But its never stopped me going to ibrox when i can get a ticket and thankfully i have seen many a win there

What amazes me is that they, at every opportunity, accuse other teams’ fans of victimisation and terrorising.

My first experience was when travelling with the St Giles branch back in the 70's. We'd stopped in a wee town on our way back from a game so to have a toilet break. All the young lads used the chance for a quick couple of pints and the bus was sat waiting for them with only a few women and old codgers left on the bus looking after us kids. 2 buses full of Huns pulled up next to us and then stormed the bus punching and spitting on everyone on board. They soon ****ed off though when the others returned to the bus. Absolute animals who have been conditioned to hate and despise everything that might be Catholic.

To be fair, I've also known a few who have become totally turned off by it. I have a good mate who was an East coast Rangers fan who became a Rangers fan because he was given a Rangers top by a neighbour when he was a kid. He doesn't recognise the new club as being the same, and as a fairly left-leaning "Yes" voter found himself increasingly at odds with other Rangers fans over the past few years - he lost any real sense of belonging at Ibrox.
I don't think he's alone.

When I was about 13, my friend and I were walking down ER before a game v them and as we passed Middletons, a charming, portly 'man' said to me "I would have sh***ed you but you're a fenian". Of course, I was absolutely devastated that by wearing a Hibs scarf, I had effectively ruled myself out of the experience of a lifetime with this cretin but I've had to live with the disappointment...
Of course, I am sure he would have seen the funny side of a comment like that if another vile creature had said that to his daughter/sister etc

Nobody’s born a hateful sectarian bigot. These people are either indoctrinated from birth or they are cretins who happily adopt this hatred to make them feel part of the ‘loyalist/royalist’ community.
Their enemy was chosen in the 17th Century but most of them can’t string two sentences together to explain why they hate cafflicks or for that matter, anything that’s coloured green! Shamefully, this bigotry enjoys a certain amount of support from the establishment. They need exposing and ridiculed at every opportunity. How much hate from within does it take to gob on a blind man? As a previous thread said... ‘**** of the earth!’

The Huns are a bit of an angry lot. I remember I came up for the Rangers game a few years ago. I got off the 26 at the top of London Road and there was a coach in front that the Huns were alighting from. I must have an unlikable appearance because when I walked past, some guy (who was about 5’2, clearly with a Napoleon complex) started going absolutely mental at me - spitting at (not on) me, calling me a fenian faggot (was wearing ripped skinny jeans to be fair), and doing that faux ‘I’m being held back’ attempt at getting to me. Was an absurd experience and I just had a laugh.
The fact that they have so many of this type of fan is what makes it such an immensely satisfying thing to **** them at Ibrox!

I did return to Ibrox after that but was always on guard and ready for anything. It's years now since I've gone to a game there, and at 70, it would need to be a crucial game to entice me back.

Many now saying it never happened on twitter. I’ve no idea myself, but apparently he was always posting some nasty stuff on his FB about The Rangers and made the story up! I’m sure if it did someone must have seen it and can back it up?
The Rangers fans are the lowest of the low and for me would do something like this, but seems he’s previous for lying.

The rangers fans on twitter claiming it didn’t happen are also saying he clearly isn’t blind and that he’s just a bigot (only to then have to look back on a few of their own posts to see them talking about Tarriers, Taigs and Fenians

Until I hear something that proves otherwise, I'll believe that this happened.
