Cracking statement from the Rangers today regards what went on at Rugby park last week, demanding apologies from everyone and condone fans who invaded pitch and smashed disabled section up, the Rangers say they are still trying to identify fans from incident.
Clubs in Scotland should save the hassle and just ban them from grounds, this just gives a green light to Huns to do as they want when at away games, and what the ****** are Scottish police playing at, still no arrests for fans invading pitch and wrecking disabled bit.

The panel-members (and their families) had to get security-advice from the Special Branch after death-threats were made to them, journalists/lawyers involved also got them, Raith Rovers/Turnbull Hutton received threats of arson-attacks on Starks Park etc, etc - and nothing was done, no-one from 'The Place Where Football Goes To Die' were even reprimanded or spoken to !. Ever since then the Hun, greatly helped by our 'esteemed' media, have just walked all over our game and given the finger to the game and Scottish Society in general !. Statement-after-statement is basically a 'F*** YOU !' to everyone outside their in-bred inner-circle !
And Sevco knew who was on the panel all along.Quote:

I know peepl who still think they are owed a debt because the Rangerz were dumped into the 4th tier. The obvious lesson is: they should have been made to start again at the very bottom.
This seems to be only mentioned in today's 'Scottish Hun' - presumably the 'Record'/Scotsman/Herald' etc don't do bad-news ? -
https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/new...-today-hummel/
RANGERS must pay Sports Direct £450,000 in court expenses by this afternoon after a judge imposed an injuction 'killing' the club's Hummel deal from next season.
Anyone know if the've paid it or are they/King doing their usual and just ignoring it ?
Rank stupidity if they did ignore it - the court documents clearly stated that failure to comply was punishable with jail time, for whoever the signatories were on the agreement....Quote:

No Huns in Europe - a sigh of relief from all towns due to host them :agree:
It's a terrible indictment of a club, when they have to refuse tickets because the fans can't be trusted. They now face a second charge; if guilty it will be full stadium closure for their next European home game.
I sincerely hope that some enterprising chap can get his hands on a couple of thousand tickets at their next away match and sell them to Sevco fans so that they can continue to sing their "harmless ditties". Hell mend the w*****s.....
Conspiracy theory lunatics on Rangers forums melting down in 3, 2, 1......

Time for a fans petition to the SFA stating they must act before UEFA applies a blanket ban to Scottish clubs?
It'll be all eyes on the Rangers' end on Sunday. It will be interesting to see how much Sky show them when they're singing and how often they have to turn down the volume.
Wouldn't surprise me if there's a bit of self-policing (even though the SFA won't punish them) followed by some fighting amongst themselves.
The best part of the most recent Rangers statement is the following which is what they should have said years ago:
Those who wish to sing offensive songs must realise by now that they are insulting Rangers players, staff, and fellow fans. There is nothing clever, bold or even defiant in what this small number of supporters are doing.
It finally cuts through the years of absurd protection of interest statements made by both sides of the old firm.
Rangers hierarchy realise there is no hiding place from UEFA, no opportunities to deflect and no let up.
Scottish teams are a nothing to an independent UEFA and there are no conflicts of interest as per SFA & SPFL. They simply call Rangers out on their fans behaviour and they are powerless to fight it.
I am no fan of UEFA but in relation to this issue they cut through decades of bull**** with the likes of Celtic & Rangers without any fear of repercussions.
I hope for the sake of Scottish football and society that we can at last start moving forward on this issue.
Very good post [emoji106]Quote:

Should be a good watch.
The bit in blue would have been even better had they had made it "these supporters" rather than "this small number of supporters". That is their remaining hiding place in the statement. I understand why they did it but it is an untruth and makes it look like they are still wriggling and playing up to their supporters. It is certainly a bolder and more truthful statement than Celtic have ever come out with. I trust Mr King will be ensuring there will be no more orange strips next season.Quote:

Are we really to believe they had a hiatus in these songs against Progres or Midtjylland? Hell, I'd have understood more if they were cited for those games as you could readily hear their supporters - they were completely and utterly drowned out last week by the amazing Legia fans :not worth
I know many good Rangers fans that are sick to the back teeth of this, but self-policing isn't an option for them. It puts the threat of violence, reaction and retaliation onto them rather than the authorities who should have the charge to deal with these folks.
It's great that UEFA continue to show they won't tolerate this ****, but until the domestic authorities stand up and punish them (and their equally abhorrent cousins) accordingly, nothing will ever change.
Absolutely brilliant that UEFA and the rangers themselves have came out and taken action yet just a few weeks ago the SFA came out and said they were pleased at the work being done to tackle sectarianism 😂 couldn’t ****ing write it
i chuckled at that too, try the "majority" rather than the minorityQuote:

"minority" :rolleyes: you just know that when it gets back to domestic football they will just continue to do what they've always done, why? as there are no repercussions due to the mob that are in charge not willing/too feared to take any action
Oh deary, dear.
Why is everything to do with Der Hun posted in a seven year old thread about them going bust?
If we want to discuss their bigotry, don't hide it on here. Create a new thread called The Rangers Are Bigots and make the subject prominent.
Stop hiding it away.
Rant Over :-)
Well at least he'll be easy to spot and ban if sevco are serious.Quote:

UEFA have done more to deal with these vile parasites than the Huns running the sfa and spfl ever will.
Another 3000 seats closed off for the first home group game.
Wonder how long the SFA and SPFL can keep sweeping now UEFA are taking serious notice

Rangers handed another partial stadium ban for fans' racist behaviour
Today's statement will be fun !
It was reported there was a third charge for the game against midget land. But that appears to have been false, so the daily record have retracted and apologised.Quote:

Dare say the full songbook will get big licks on Sunday as ultimately folk know there will be no repurcussions
Of course all the songs, with all the add ons, will return for league games. UEFA has proved that the bigotry can be stopped when there are meaningful consequences. THE SFL/SFA must introduce strict liability too.Quote:

Celtic and their supporters are keen users of semantics to muddy the waters when challenged, however, UEFA would cut right through that as they have proved with Rangers.
I don't think they can. Clubs including Hibs have always blocked it.Quote:

No pitch invasion last night after the last minute winner. That was a surprise.
I was travelling home with my wife by train from Glasgow last night and was a bit concerned at the number of sevco fans getting on board. These could only have been early departures from the game but maybe 100 or so.
Was pleasantly surprised they could not have been better behaved. No songbook. No disturbance just regular passenger behaviour.
What a difference UEFA have made with just one intervention
