The Rangers

[Alex Trager]

Has there been any

A) acknowledgment/apology about the lies they told after the game? They said their fans were on the park to protect their players. That is incorrect as all he players are off the park as the fans enter the park.

B) acknowledgement/apology/condemnation for the way their fans acted. Hibs released a strong statement explaining how they will help the police etc. And how they will not tolerate the behaviour that we seen. Hibs have handed bans to some fans and as far as I am aware worked closely with the police to help find the culprits.
Any statements or the likes from The Rangers of a similar nature?

C) acknowledgement/apology for the fans outside the ground kicking off with the police?

And
D) acknowledgement/apology for the illegal pyrotechnics inside the ground? I'd add the illegal songs but it really is a waste of time.

Answer is the same to all questions: obviously not.

Scotland's Shame then, Scotland's Shame now, Scotland's Shame forever.

[Keith_M]

No, no, no and no.

[Del Boy]

Of course not.

[CmoantheHibs]

They do walking away but not apologies it seems.

[NAE NOOKIE]

They are probably still trying to figure out a way around the embarrassment of WAGS of some of the players allegedly 'assaulted' coming out and saying nothing of the sort happened. Add to that the utter lack of evidence to support their "fans protecting the players" lie and they have a big problem.

Hibs default position since Leeann joined has been to wait until a measured response to stuff can be considered. We will wait until the police action is finished and the enquiry is concluded. At that time The Rangers will no doubt be confronted with a copy of Traynor's hysterical fantasist lies spewed out 10 minutes after the final whistle and Hibs will be asking a number of questions and making a few observations of our own:

1) ...... Why did Traynor say "several" Sevco players and staff had been physically assaulted, when they clearly hadn't been?

2) ...... Why did the statement "commend Rangers fans for their restraint" when at least 200 of them came on to the pitch and amongst other things kick a young Hibs fan in the face as he lay on the ground, use a corner flag as an offensive weapon and manhandle a child. This was accompanied by the Sevco support left in the ground singing a banned sectarian song .... if that's their definition of restraint, what standards are they setting for their support?

3) ...... Why in any event did the club try to make an excuse for the actions of their fans who didn't "show restraint" ...... in doing so they have created an extremely dangerous precedent, it is the job of the police and stewards to deal with disorder at football matches, not the supporters of the participating clubs. Never mind Hibs, the spineless SFA should have utterly condemned that Sevco statement for the dangerous nonsense it was the same day it was made.

4) ...... Why did Sevco issue their statement so quickly without even the courtesy of talking to any Hibs official first?

5) ...... At what point will they condemn the sectarian abuse of our manager during the game?

Under normal circumstances it would not be the job of Hibernian to address most of these questions, it would be the job of the SFA. However, it is very difficult to see past the theory that in order to divert attention from their on field failure on the day Sevco issued a statement aimed at painting Hibs and the Hibs support in the worst possible light by hugely exaggerating the events at full time .... two months later they have never amended let alone withdrawn any part of it.

In view of the fact that The Rangers FC are clearly abusing the good name of Hibs and the Hibs support to divert attention from their own failings ... flares, sectarian singing, their own violent hooligans .... Hibs are well within their rights to call them out, I hope to hell that we do!!!

[lyonhibs]

Meh. We've got bigger things as a club and as a support to focus our energies on.

Depending on the outcome of the official report obviously

[Vini1875]

The reason why is very simple. They got beat and were lucky it was only 3-2. Why we would expect them- club, fans and media- to behave any differently from how they have is beyond me. They are what they are, ****bags.

The "Meh" approach allowed Rangers and now THE Rangers to get away with this sort of thing year on year the really need to be robustly challenged.

Pitch invasions and James Traynor's rants masquerading as official press releases??

I can't stand the Huns, but it's pushing it a bit too say they've been doing those things year after year.

Sectarian singing I agree with mind.

[Col2]

We should NEVER let them forget. At the end of the day we won 3-2 and that still bugs them to death. The fallout, spin, media which hunts etc have been at a new level but even when it winds me up, it last for a few seconds because we won the 2016 Scottish Cup.

Good words.

I'd like to see other clubs boycott their games and have them removed completely from the planet, by being fired in to a super massive black hole. Launched at Ann Budge using the elastic that amazingly holds Ally McCoists underpants up.

Only one player from The Rangers done it and it was Kenny. Went round the dressing room to shake everyone's hand. Their manager on the other hand was to busy rushing players to A&E.

No but we beat them easily in their first attempt at winning a real trophy so they will convince themselves that their way is right and they are victims, most of the rest of society will see it for what it is and their navel gazing will continue.

Weir said during an interview a few days after the "riot" that the better team won

[Sir David Gray]

Pigs will have learned how to fly before you'll hear any kind of apology or condemnation from Sevco for their fans' part in what happened after the cup final.

And their chairman stating that he would rather have his fans singing sectarian songs rather than invading the pitch - why has no one pointed out to him that his fans did BOTH?

No one seems to want to question whatever comes out of Ibrox.

The most hated club in Scotland " And their only 4 years old " that's the most pleasing thing I can come up with.😉

Seems some fans of theirs have been banned...again apologies for the link and the utter dross that has been posted

Now that the media frenzy over the pitch invasion has calmed down they don't have anything to hide behind. After the final they lapped up all the media bull**** about hibs fans rioting, players attacked etc etc because the more they could divert all the focus onto that the more it deflected away from their humiliation and their hurt.

Thankfully now the lies have unravelled and the huns are no longer able to play the "it was the big bad hibees, we're the victims, we were trying to save ut players who were being brutally attacked etc etc". They've showen themselves up for the **** they are and their wee pals in the media like Keith Jackson has proved what an unproffesional hun arse sooker he is.

The vast majority of hibs fans were on the park out of utter spur of the moment joy, no malice or intent to harm. Yes a few individuals took it too far but ALL the huns that came on the park were there to fight (they certainly weren't on to celebrate were they!). Spare us this hero bull**** of 'oh we were trying to save our players". No rangers players were attacked, the goalie got a shove thats about it. Far for the "11 rangers players brutally attacked" bollocks. Don't even get me started on the utterly pathetic, cringeworthy and down right laughable statement from the rangers supports group giving it the whole poor wee victim act and the "our fans showed great restraint"

Rather astonishing hypocrisy from the club thats more than cemented it reputation as "Scotlands Shame". I noticed they got in one last loud and proud rendition rendition of the Billy boys before they exited hampden that day. Utter vermin.

[MrSmith]

Reminding the Glasgow based excuses for journalists that attempting to influence the course of justice is a criminal offence and - big pat on back to all who did - those who complained to IPSO, stopped them dead in their tracks!

Saying we deserved to win that game isn't really much on the 'gracious scale', is it? A blind man watching the game in a large sack two miles underground could see we deserved to win..It was an absolute battering, 5-2 wouldn't have flattered us.
