BraveheartGordon Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Was he booed onto the pitch on Friday because he’s a Rangers player? its not the first time this has happened and there was a fair amount of whataboutery the 2 pervious occasions with Black at Easter Road and Jack again at Pittodrie. The standard response I’ve had was “its because he’s crap” but I’ve seen players play for Scotland who are so bad they make Ryan Jack look world class and none of them were booed. Keep the club pish to your Saturday afternoons and turn up at Hampden to get behind EVERY player, I’d never boo a player for Scotland because I didn’t like him or his club domestically. Disgrace.

Debian Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 It's happened to Rangers players in the past. It's also happened to one or two other players. We need to remember that like any other club or country, Scotland fans can also be and are cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

mrniaboc Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 It's disgraceful. Pulling on the shirt for his national team should be among the proudest moments of the lad's life, and some absolute eejits are tarnishing that by having a complete lack of understanding of what it means to support Scotland. I really hope he's strong enough to not let it get to him, and that he know it's not coming from the majority of us. Yes my club team is Rangers, and yes I'd love to see Ryan Jack getting the better of an Aberdeen or Celtic team (though that's not really on the cards at the moment), but first and foremost I'm a member of the Tartan Army, my main team is Scotland, and whether it be Jack, Shinnie, or Tierney, when I see them come on or go off the pitch I will give them the biggest cheer and clap I can muster because I know they have just gone out there to do they best they can representing our team and our country.

That’s exactly how I see things. Some but not all rangers fans are absolutely desperate for this to be because jack is a rangers player. I wouldn’t boo him unless he had the gun top on but if he comes on for Scotland that takes a back seat. There’s been players booed that aren’t rangers players too.

EddardStark Posted September 10, 2018 Share Posted September 10, 2018 Never booed a Scotland player due to cub allegiances. It's creates a poisonous atmosphere. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Scotland Ever More Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I agree. If you can't let club issues go for 90 mins then internationals aren't for you. That being said, I do find it slightly amusing that the complainants are the same group who used to congregate in the west stand booing Celtic players (who were some of the best in Europe at the time) and singing the sash.

hampden_loon2878 Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 We need to self police this as a support, as an aberdeen fan i know the dislike jack has within our club, if he was booed(which i was unaware of until now) it is completely unacceptable, it gives the knuckle draggers within the rangers support ammunition to further their cause, so disappointed if this is true.

Every supporter should be pissed off by this regardless of where their club allegiances lie. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Parklife Posted September 11, 2018 Share Posted September 11, 2018 I'd imagine he gets booed because he's a wee lying, judas cunt. Not just because he plays with Rangers. I wouldn't have booed him on Friday though. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

He actually got a good reception around where I was sat but I think that was more down to folk pre empting the tits booing and trying to drown it out.

I obviously can't be 100% certain but I'm fairly confident that if Jack had signed for Sunderland or Southampton in the same manner he wouldn't be getting booed. On the other 2, I can understand the flimsy reasoning behind Black being booed (other than him being a khunt) but I can't see any reason for Wallace other than him being a Rangers player?

The common denominator for me is that the three of them are/were shite...that said, boo'ing a player representing Scotland is baffling Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
