Absolute disgrace! Girlfriend was hit by a coin, luckily only on the leg but she has a bruise to show for it, gentleman infront of me was hit on the head, had a massive lump and a cut from where he was hit!

On a lighter note, was fantastic when Martin from the schemes baseball cap was commandeered! Won't be my last time through at that dump but will certainly be he girlfriends!

Happens every time:agree:

[Bostonhibby]

In the 80s when Willie Jamieson scored in a 1-1 draw our small group at the now defunct glasgow rangers were spat on by mutant youth who were sat above us. They even spat on the woman in our group. The stewards weren't interested, the cop we spoke to shrugged his shoulders but instantly sprung into action when one of us started threatening said mutants at half time. Scottish football continues to be a bit of a laughing stock as 30 years on not much has changed, the quality has gone down and this type of club continues to be favoured by the establishment.

[Lang Toun Hibs]

Happens every time:agree:

Agree...stopped going there and giving the old club my money many years ago as a result. Not about to start giving donations to a new club whose fans won't have changed and stewarding and policing that is frankly pathetic as they stand and watch it happening time after time.

Did anyone else see the fat **** on the top tier to our left show off his casuals t-shirt and give the nazi salute??? Dirty ***** they are the **** of the earth... Loved scoring against them tho they were raging, saw loads of coins, drinks and even a rangers scarf get thrown into our end... Who throws there own teams scarf into the opposite crowd dic£heeds!

[Aaron]

I remember leaving Ibrox the day Darren Jackson scored the winning penalty with a massive smile on my face (naturally) only for some Hun to pull a knife out on me 2 mins after leaving the ground telling me to wipe the smile off my face. Lovley ground to visit.

To be expected, sadly. Football in Glasgow is tribal. Stone age. Not an experience I enjoy and now prefer to watch it on TV or laptop.

On an aside, when Ian Murray was being interviewed on Alba at HT, it appeared as if every hun standing behind him had a mobile phone stuck to his/her ear.

If you are going to start a new thread, please make it a creditable one and not full of downright lies.
The Glasgow people are the friendliest in the world, we have been just been told this for near enough a fortnight, so no way would any of them stoop so low as to do the things you say they did.

'People make Glasgow', or so the badge that they handed out at the Games told us. If that's the case, Thank F... I'm from Edinburgh.

Haven't seen one of these threads for a while but I agree with everything on it. And they wonder why everyone laughed when the went bankrupt. Their ****my behaviour knows no bounds.

[Bishop Hibee]

It's an eye opener for any away fan going to Ipox. I remember a boy about 10 leaning over the top tier giving the Hibs fans abuse being patted on the head by the grinning father. Another time a guy produced a flute and they were all dancing about good style to the sash until a polis took exception.

New Rangers, same ****my fans.

When the now defunct Glasgow Rangers were in their death throes there was a maximum expectancy of 10p but now that they no longer exist and the new boys are throwing money about as before its pound coins all round, and when the next generation of creditors start to get bumped there might even be £2 coins on special occasions.

There was a thread somewhere highlighting that Wee Eck was committed to sorting the sectarian element of it all out but no one seemed to be able to point to how, or when it might start. Every chance the latest statement of intent will take time to develop into action as well?

[Keith_M]

Maybe those affected should send complaints to Hibs, highlighting what they have to put up with at Ibrox.

If the club want to build a better relationship with the fans, this is one area they could make a positive contribution by collating the complaints and letting The Rangers and the Police know about it.

Ach ... did anybody expect any different.

Given the number of current buns who failed to turn up it has to be questioned why the ones who did were allowed to occupy the seats closest to the away fans when there were thousands of empty seats further along the stand.

Hibs as a club should be taking comments from fans who were at the game last night on board with a view to approaching not only The Rangers but Police Glasgow .... sorry I mean Scotland. It would not be unreasonable for the club to ask The Rangers if they are prepared to publicly rebuke these idiots and to ask Police Scotland why it is that away fans can be treated this way with little or nothing being done about it.

Its time that this stuff was nipped in the bud ....... That club got its self destroyed off the pitch and their fans ( who call it the same club ) are lucky they still have a club to support. Now is the time to look at their conduct on the terraces and as far as I'm concerned that should begin with clubs like us making it clear that physical abuse of our supporters at their houfin' dump will no longer be tolerated.

Absolutely spot on.

I've not been to Ibrox for a while and it's mainly down to their supporters and the lack of Police action. I suggest that next time you tell a policeman that you are being abused and he shrugs his shoulders or asks "what can I do about it", that you ask him for his name and number so that you can write to the chief constable as he clearly isn't cut out to be a policeman.

Assuming that you don't get huckled out of the stadium, it may just spur him into some action.

On my first ever visit to Ibrox, I had no idea where away fans were supposed to sit so followed most of the guys on our bus into the Main Stand (the other Hibbies were in the Broomloan Front). There were 20-30 of us, a mixture of kids like myself and some older fans, definitely not out to cause trouble. Because we had the cheek to chant "Hibees - Hibees" on a couple of ocassions, a large crowd of neanderthals waited on us outside and we had to be protected from them by Mounted Police while our bus was fetched from the Car Park, as the Police refused to escort us to it. Once our bus finally arrived, one of the Police, with a big smile on his face, said "welcome to the Big City lads. You'll no be in a hurry to come back the next time, eh".

I have hated them and their Polis ever since.

Special shout out to the fine young male with his younger son standing on the top tier to our left carrying a red hand of ulster flag with the Star of David placed over it.

To think he went to the effort of having such a flag manufactured showed how strongly he supports the northern Irish Jewish community. Truly commendable

If you have a look at the flag of Northern Ireland, you'll see that there is ALREADY a Star of David on it. This is because the people of Nothern Ireland are actually descended from a lost tribe of Israel and are God's chosen people (hence the Wee Arra Peepul chant).

Not sure if you're serious here or not.
For a start that's a conspiracy theorists site which also has page dedicated to UFO's and alien life on earth.

Secondly, I think you've missed the point. A fully grown man has taken his son to a football match, walked him to the front of the stand as close to opposition fans as he could get and waved a flag crossed between an Israeli Star of David. Why would any parent do such a thing.

Most importantly, none of this has any relevance at a petrofac-training cup football match.

[TheMentalHibees]

Was my first time at ibrox, aside from being a wholly unpleasant bunch to look at I don't think any of the huns either side of our support actually watched the game, instead spending 90+mins trying to noise us up. After our equaliser the boy in front of me had a coin land at his feet while two seconds later a cup narrowly missed me and my buddy while still splashing us with juice. Think the poor people on the other side got it worse at half time when a fair few cups got chucked into our end. Maybe they were expecting buck fast instead of coke, who knows.

Was also treated to a little ditty about bobby sands courtesy of a handful of Huns on the train home after the game.

None of the above particularly bothers me bar the fact that little to no attention was paid to any of the mutants behaviour by the stewards. Much like the teams on the pitch, it seems to be one set of rules for them and one for everybody else.

The biggest concentration of Sevco fans last night were in the centre of the main stands and in the broomloan right next to ours. It looked utterly ridiculous on the TV and clearly proves that a certain group of them choose their seats so they can specifically wind up and throw objects at the away fans. The majority of them were hardly looking at the game.

Only been to the bigot dome once, when we pumped them 3-0 in the cup. Luckily me and my Dad didn't have anything thrown at us (probably because we had the whole stand and we were in the top tier) as others did last night.

I remember walking out the ground with my Dad, walking down the steps and looking behind me outside, seeing their fans being held back by the police. Only felt right to give them the finger and the GIRUY. :greengrin

I have a lot of tales about visiting there in the past 40 years and to be fair, the adrenalin is usually enough to carry you through.

I sat through the 1-1 game there under Yogi, and amongst the ***** under the guise of 'hospitality'. This was the game when Stokes scored that wonder goal. Chest and volley.

The specimen on my right, who was aged about 80 (or he could have been 40 and should probably have been choked of all life some years previously) didn't target that notable and suggested Fenian sympathiser, but instead repeatedly directed his spew at Merouanne Zemmamma as he was (quote) 'a reptile'.

Like many others I stopped going to Ibrox many years ago after one particularly bad experience when I thought we weren't getting out unless in an ambulance.

Waste of time trying to speak to the weegie polis. Most of them are in the Masons/Lodge too and seem to hate anyone from Edinburgh, but much more so if you happen to support a team called Hibernian FC.

Scotland's shame right enough. What was all that so-called friendliness during the Commonwealth Games about? That goes right out the window when it comes to supporters of the Ibrox club.

[Keith_M]

Apparently, the Israel flag thing started because some Cetlc fans were taking Palestinian flags to games, as they see the Palestinian 'cause' as being similar to Irish Republicanism. The Rangers fans felt they had to do something to show they were on the other side of the debate to their rivals.

Must have been my unlucky night got hit in the face with a coke at half time then 2 £1 coins on the upper arm a few minutes apart! I emailed Rangers no response though

I sent a photo of my where the coin hit my forehead to their Twitter page immediately after I was hit and surprise surprise no response has been received.

[Iggy Pope]

Apparently, the Israel flag thing started because some Cetlc fans were taking Palestinian flags to games, as they see the Palestinian 'cause' as being similar to Irish Republicanism. The Rangers fans felt they had to do something to show they were on the other side of the debate to their rivals.

Apparently, this is the case. A monstrosity that has never been observed properly, until you did.

[Sean1875]

"you're Irvine welshs' nephew" was one of the more amusing bits of 'abuse' I had shouted at me last night.

appreciate that a large number of the weegie police are rightfully getting a hard time because of everything that happens in ibrox but in fairness the couple of them next to me at the right hand side of the segregation was joking and laughing away with me and my mates, so they're not all bad!

[Sir David Gray]

Could not agree more....the flying of the Israel flag last night was particularly disgusting as was the response by the stewards and Weedgie police

What exactly would you be looking for the police to do about someone waving a national flag?


The police are an absolute disgrace. As per usual turning a blind eye because its "the mighty glasgow rangers". Can you imagine if a hibs supporter had waved that sort of flag! He/She would have been wrestled out the ground quicker than they knew what had hit them!

Same old same old, both on and off the pitch its one set of rules for the OF and another set of rules for everybody else. Absolute disgrace how much those pair of bigots have gotten away with over the years. They have utterly embarrased Scotland more times than I can even remeber and still continue to do so because the authorites in charge don't have the balls to stick up to them and in turn endangering the public above all things!

I highly doubt that anyone has ever been ejected from a Scottish football stadium for waving a country's national flag.

It was the reaction, likely to incite violent conduct from the Hibs support that should have concerned the police....

yes was behind a celtic bus coming into murrayfield earlier tonight and they had irish flag up on the back window with free Palestine written on it, the both of the bigot brothers are a joke, anything they see as confrontational they jump on it.

There was someone in the Hibs end with a Palestinian flag last night so we're not immune from bringing politics into football.

I have my own views on the topic but I would never dream of taking those views into the confines of a football stadium.

Football and politics should not mix.

[banarc7062]

If you are going to start a new thread, please make it a creditable one and not full of downright lies.
The Glasgow people are the friendliest in the world, we have been just been told this for near enough a fortnight, so no way would any of them stoop so low as to do the things you say they did.

'People make Glasgow', or so the badge that they handed out at the Games told us. If that's the case, Thank F... I'm from Edinburgh.

Excellent comment

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

During a lovely rendition of The Sash last night, I asked the policeman standing directly next to me if that is now an illegal song to sing. His reps ones was "it is yeah but what am I supposed to do when 500 of them are singing it?". So that's us stick with bigotry for the next 100 years I guess then. Funny how UEFA seem to be able to do something about it. Meanwhile, police and the SFA will just continue to stick their fingers in their ears and pretend its not happening

Yes yes yes yes. You said this once or three times before. Sing and wave whatever you like? Goad. Yes. Sing, wave and goad whoever or whatever you like.
Not a crime.

[Sir David Gray]

On a general note, last night brought it all back to me.

Ibrox really is home to some abnormal looking people.

I say "people" but I'm not entirely sure that they're people in the usual sense of the word. A lot of those fans who were situated either side of the Hibs section last night honestly looked as if they were the result of a science experiment that had gone badly wrong.

The songs and the flags are one thing but the throwing of coins and other objects is something that seriously needs to be looked at by the relevant people and appropriate action taken.

For me, there needs to be more segregation between the Sevco fans and our fans whenever we go to Ibrox. I've often been surprised at how small the gap is which exists between the two sets of fans on the occasions I've been there.

It's only a matter of time before serious injuries are inflicted upon someone and then there will be serious questions to answer.

[Sir David Gray]

[NadeAteMyLunch!]

Also worth mentioning that my pal and I tried to nip down to the toilet after 86 minutes only to be met with a line of police at the top of the stairs. Went to walk past them only for two of them to sick their hands out and say "you're not going anywhere until the game finishes". I'm going to the toilet I said. "On you go but you'll not be getting back in" said the most obnoxious looking PC ever, quickly followed by "the game finishes in 4 minutes, ye can wait!" by a female cop. Was genuinly speechless for a minute. Eventually allowed past when I questioned if it was a prison or a football ground and asking them if this is how they treated fans at the rugby 7's the week before. Utter clowns. Disgrace what they get away with through there

Hmmmmmm. Are you sure? Without archiving through piles of crap, I recall your outlook at one non Hibs game being very different. Care to comment?

[wills]

Would it not be better to contact LD with formal complaint of treatment of away fans at Ibrox. Police refusal to protect individual from physical and verbal abuse. Let Petrie contact his cronies at the SFA to force them to clean up their act or play behind closed doors or other financial sanctions. I refuse to go to the dark side now after witnessing pies, coin and urine being thrown onto visiting fans. If this treatment was dished out at ER it would be all over the press

[Lucius Apuleius]

Waste of time trying to speak to the weegie polis. Most of them are in the Masons/Lodge too and seem to hate anyone from Edinburgh, but much more so if you happen to support a team called Hibernian FC.

Scotland's shame right enough. What was all that so-called friendliness during the Commonwealth Games about? That goes right out the window when it comes to supporters of the Ibrox club.

No they are not. I actually have 3 weedgie policemen stay in my street, none of themare Masons or in the Lodge ( presume you mean Orange). They may dislike Hibs, but that is another argument.

[Sir David Gray]

Hmmmmmm. Are you sure? Without archiving through piles of crap, I recall your outlook at one non Hibs game being very different. Care to comment?

I've no idea what outlook you're referring to in particular, however for the avoidance of doubt, my position on taking flags into a football stadium which are politically motivated is that it's not something I personally would ever do and I find it all a bit sad, however I don't think it's something to get too worked up about.

Anyone who gets upset over seeing a national flag (ANY national flag, at that) being waved at a game of football needs to start worrying about things that really matter.

[Lucius Apuleius]

You are right. I used to take a Nigerian flag and never once got pulled up for it.

[Iggy Pope]

No they are not. I actually have 3 weedgie policemen stay in my street, none of themare Masons or in the Lodge ( presume you mean Orange). They may dislike Hibs, but that is another argument.

Do they have Grannies of a certain age? This place gets worse and worse and worse.

[Lucius Apuleius]

Do they have Grannies of a certain age? This place gets worse and worse and worse.

No idea howold their grannies are but I know they will all be of normal ages and certainly not into four figures. Not sure what you mean by this place getting worse and worse so cannot comment on that.

Mate, it's been like this for donkey's years, and if anything it was even worse before Ibrox was re-developed and the installation of CCTV (see below re more on CCTV). Folk have been making these sort of complaints for decades, but those in authority just don't want to know. The SFA won't do hee haw. They are scared of the Ibrox club.

I'm not sure if Hibs fans come in for worse treatment than other visiting club's fans or not, but nothing will be done about it until away fans completely stop going to Ibrox I would suggest. Yes, I know that would deprive away clubs of the little support they usually have at Greyskull.

What do they do with the CCTV footage? Do they not see what's going on, or do they turn a blind eye? If so, why?

Yes you do and at the time you couldn't see what was 'wrong' about one set of fans goading another with cries of Land of Hope & Glory'.
It's the goading you see? Or don't you? Goad someone with a flag, song, symbol, whatever...... In return, get filled in / bombed / assassinated. Not a crime?

OK fair enough, it was a bold sweeping statement on my part. I did mean Orange.

I just don't understand why so many of them seem to have such, putting it mildly, a strong dislike of Hibs supporters. I have personally experienced all sorts of reactions from them from indifference to downright hostility. Is it just a Edinburgh v Glasgow thing?

[Iggy Pope]

I honestly have no idea what you're talking about now.

Yes you do.
Leaving this now before I flame or bully you or some old fashioned thing and it would take half an hour of my time that I can't be arsed spending to prove me right anyway.

I have no idea. It is certainly a perception we have though. Unfortunately living where I do I happen to know a lot of people who are members of the Orange. Some of them are definitely the most odious of creatures yet I know not one policeman who is a member ( and again, I know a few). Perceptionis the truth in the mind of the perceptor in my opinion,but no idea how that changes. Apart from that it does give us something to cling to.

[Hibeesmad]

Last night was my 3rd visit to Ibrox, the previous 2 times weren't too bad but last night was just a disgrace tbh. Little kids getting juice thrown at them and seeing there mum and dad getting hit by coins absolute disgrace. And to think our next game against those at Ibrox has been changed to a Monday night just for the TV is a disgrace too

But on another subject, if we didn't have a red card I think we would have won last night. GGTTH

[mca]

on a lighter note..

Me and family went down to the local chippy on the seafront the other day to eat our suppers on the sea front - Some rangers toped whale of a guy and a very nice wife.. ahem decided to sit near us and drink his lager.. I actually warned him that he could get fined for drinking where he was sitting.. !!

He said quite loudly that he couldny gie a flying one and he wid fight ony blunt..

I said nae bother.. and as soon as I said that - I Got - Where dae ye cum fae pal....


Told him I was Hibby fae Biggar, Lanark, Isle of Arran, and even Rigside !! But now I stay in Devon.....

He then proceeded to call me a "Plastic-Catholic"... I was lost for words.. :confused:

I agree re it's been going on for years and been totally ignored, maybe that's the answer refuse to attend these games, but that means not supporting our team. Tough one! Might be an idea to capture the images on smart phones etc inform the police on site that you are filming these events load them on social media site forward to LD and MSP,s SFA and Scottish Police HQ some will have to respond.

:agree:


Because of the situation in Gaza, the Israeli flag is rather a controversial item at the moment and I'm sure he knew that. Seeing the guy waving it didn't get me worked up, it merely confirmed my suspicions about his IQ.

[HUTCHYHIBBY]

Apparently, the Israel flag thing started because some Cetlc fans were taking Palestinian flags to games, as they see the Palestinian 'cause' as being similar to Irish Republicanism. The Rangers fans felt they had to do something to show they were on the other side of the debate to their rivals.

I'm genuinely surprised at how many people don't appear to know that this is the case.

[brog]

Below is an extract from the SPFL Rules. It would appear from comments on here that The Rangers clearly breached these rules on Tuesday night. Can I respectfully suggest that anyone who witnessed or was affected by the violence on Tuesday, contact Hibs & ask them to raise this matter officially. I believe we now have a CE in place who will treat this matter seriously. Similarly heads of supporters' groups could advise Hibs re their unwillingness to travel to Ibrox & support our team because of the unacceptable risk of physical injury. Something has to be done!
I should say I haven't been to Ibrox since a particularly nasty incident over 40 years ago & it's unacceptable that incidents continue to occur & are not dealt with in this technological era.
PS, below is only a snapshot, there are many more rules concerning political/religious tolerance etc which could also be applied.

H33 The Home Club in any Official Match must ensure, so far as is reasonably
practicable,
H33.1 good order and security;
H33.2 that policies and procedures have been adopted and are implemented to
prevent incidents of Unacceptable Conduct; and
H33.3 that any incidents of Unacceptable Conduct are effectively dealt with, all
at its Stadium on the occasion of an Official Match
H34 Each Club must ensure, so far as is reasonably practicable, that its Players, officials,
supporters and any person exercising a function for or connected with the Club do
not engage in Unacceptable Conduct at a Stadium on the occasion of an Official
Match.
H35 Any failure by a Club to discharge a requirement to which it is subject by virtue of
Rules H33 and/or H34 shall constitute a breach of these Rules.

Symbiosis

1. Biology A close, prolonged association between two or more different organisms of different species that may, but does not necessarily, benefit each member.

I refuse to go to the dark side now after witnessing pies, coin and urine being thrown onto visiting fans. If this treatment was dished out at ER it would be all over the press

I might be wrong but i don't think i am but it seemed the first thing to be thrown was a cup of juice and it came from the Hibs end, got to admit that is the worse it has been for a long time inside that ground, i had a wee chat with a polis man at the game and he said everything was being recorded and that the club pick out the offenders from the The Rangers end through the week and either get sent a warning about there behaviour or get banned from the ground.

I'm pretty sure if LD was to get in touch with the police or security at the ground they will show a number of Hibs fans in bad light as well, Ms Dempster is well aware of the behaviour of the old firm clubs, pretty sure the polis stood by and watch celtc fans wreck Fir park last season and start fires and the excuse by the police was they weren't enough numbers to go in and stop the chaos that was going on that night and that they were recording the event and would detain people at a later stage, that i have a gripe with, basically what they are saying is if you come to Ibrox or Parkhead or one of the gruesome 2 come calling to your ground, don't expect us to do anything about it, they are there to force and implement the law, Scottish Police are allowing these 2 groups of fans to do what ever they want where ever they are, any other supporter out with they 2 clubs behaved in that manner and they would be detained straight away by police, it always irks me that the police will steam in to any other group of fans and treat them like s***e and act the hardman but when it comes to the old firm they become the s***e bags and hide behind there cameras and pishy excuses..

Wee Eck is on top of everything mind you and any day soon it will all be eradicated.
