The songs are indefensible. Utterly disgusting but that is done by the fans. 

I know the club could do more to stop the sectarian singing but that also requires the fuckwits to behave and I don't see that happening ever. 

Signing little shite bags like Flanagan is completely in the clubs control. They can do better quite easily. Therefore they can be held 100% accountable. 

Not to condone the singing and not to say that the club shouldn't be doing anything about it but both the Parliament and football authorities have made it clear their not prepared to act.

Brutal stuff though. Expect the same on Friday. Unless there is a marked improvement the winner of this will struggle to go up. 

Completely agree. I thought Utd were the better side, and deserved the win. 

Hamilton and St Mirren won’t be watching that and shifting themselves though.

I seem to be the only Arab that thought the red was slightly harsh, Donaldsons lunge on Pawlett was far worse and should have been a straight red so fuck them. Robertsons tantrum after the game was decent, what a bitter wee wank.

Cant help thinking if Neilson was a bit more positive we could have buried the tie last night. As it stands, this is far from over. 🙈

I think the united player made sure it looked a lot worse than it was.

I thought it was a stick on yellow, but slightly harsh red.

This certainly doesn't help. The club could definitely do more but they have to be "incentivised" 

Without proper punishment nothing will change. 

And if all of the decent Rangers fans stopped going you would only get change for the worse.

The scottish parliament are prepared to act, they just made an ass of the offensive behavior at football act. There is an appetite for change within parliament but aaid is right there is no appetite for it in scottish football. Until we see a change in attitude by the SFA/SPFL etc nothing will change, a starting point would to start believing there's more to the game that the old firm

Ticket sales for the 3 home stands looking superb for Rugby Park on Saturday.

Fingers crossed they carry out the proposed boycott of the away end.

Very good to hear. Hopefully you get the points so Clarke can sign off with European football for you.

Sadly the other clubs have already passed up the chance to change stuff while Rangers were working their way back up the leagues.

Both were straight red cards IMO. ICT arre certainly an industrial team.

You get the feeling that a Rangers player could get away with anything this season. 

The SFA really are an absolute shambles. 

and yet Rangers will play the victim in all of this. 

Scottish football continues to embarrass itself week in week out

Even by recent SFA standards this is absolutely staggering and completely baffling.

How? Just fucking how?

I have absolutely no words. Speechless. 

Thankfully I can still type. What the Feck. 

There must have been some sort of admin cock up that he got off on. How else can this be explained?

Because its the rules. Dont agree with it, but he should never have been charged in the first place:

Disciplinary Rule 200 : Where any one of the sending off offences of (A1) serious foul play, (A2) violent conduct, and (A3) spitting at an opponent or any other person is committed by a player at a match, but that sending off offence was not seen by any of the match officials at the time that it was committed...

The ref saw the offence and booked him. Its been the same rule for the past 8/9 seasons- known as the 're-referring rule'.

Again, to reiterate, I dont agree with it. He is a very lucky boy.

Yet Scott McKenna got banned for two games and this was upheld. The ref was looking right at it.

Dont think McKenna was booked at the time, was he?

We got lucky that Flanagan was booked, so the ref couldnt argue that he didnt see it.

He didn't get booked but the ref was looking straight at it.
