Diamond Scot Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 With the video on twitter showing Rangers players celebrating by singing Sweet Caroline with FTP thrown in, do you think the SFA will investigate. Its not clear from the video who is singing it but id expect the SFA to ask Rangers to provide names and then for those involved to get the same 10 game bans that Rangers were saying was insufficient for the Slavia Prague player. Too long have things like this been swept under the carpet. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I've been saying it for weeks, Rangers as a club select the types of bigotry they don't like. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fairbairn Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 If it's the video I've seen on Twitter then I'm not sure how anyone can say that they can conclusively hear that being sung. I can hear what sounds like the usual "doh doh doh" and not much else. Given that we've got something like 2 Scottish players in our squad I'd be astonished if this is true. I'd also be astonished if the likes of Gerrard (catholic), Goldson (catholic) and other senior members of the team and staff tolerated it for one second. I'm pretty confident this is mud slinging.

I can hear something that resembles “ftp” but to be honest, I couldn’t say for sure that’s what has been said. Listened 4 or 5 times and can’t be sure at all. Unless there’s clear evidence, then it’s a non story for me. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is apparently a very poorly dubbed fake version doing the rounds which will be, I'm sure, what people are jumping on. If it was a supporters club or my garden party I'd believe it but not coming directly from the current crop of players. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Too long have things like this been swept under the carpet. Its fake (two versions of the same video exist- second has been dubbed over). Seemingly first appeared on the same guys account that photoshopped the Rangers players on a night out during the first lock down (all with the same clothes on as a club function 18 months before, and including players that were no longer with the club). You've got to be careful with these things - especially with Rangers/Celtic involved. Plus, its pretty sinister that a lot of folk on Twitter are trying to blame Kamara.

Does Kamara not cross himself when he comes on the park? It might have been a bit more believable if they'd tried to finger Jack, McGregor or Davis!

But thats the mentality of the people who come up with this nonsene- makes a better story if it is him. Quite a few of the more popular Celtic accounts on twitter trying to push it too, sadly.

Unless two models of the exact same camera phone were filming at the extact same angle for the exact same length of time in the exact same same place, both attached to the exact same account, but only one had it microphone covered.

Diamond Scot Posted May 17, 2021 Author Share Posted May 17, 2021 Im pleased if it is a fake. If it is then id expect Rangers to release something saying so. Or the SFA. Things like this cant just be left alone. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's likely pish like this on social media all the time, this one has just got a bit of traction because of the events of the weekend.

Things like this cant just be left alone. Sadly, lots of things like these were circulating after the old firms games this season (the guy photoshopping rangers players into a picture of a night out being as a prime example). Most dont get any traction. You would have to release 20 statements after each game to deal (which we could probably do to be fair ) Best ignored imo. These people want attention.

phart Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 Folk will believe what they want to believe and this tweet certainly won't help. Going to get worse with deep fake technology etc. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Fairbairn Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 That response from Police Scotland is quite frankly ludicrous. A quick scan of the video or even the social media commentary on it would have debunked it as the bullshit it so clearly is. All that tweet does is add fuel to the fire.

Stu101 Posted May 17, 2021 Share Posted May 17, 2021 The account that came up with it, together with a few other that shared it (retrocelts, possibly?), have all quickly deleted the video. Funny that. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That’ll come I’m sure, followed by 1000’s of tweets how the police are all Hun bastards and they’ve let them away with it. People who don’t want to see it’s fake, won’t see that. Just look at the disappointment in ramys post, he’ll be raging it’s not super news. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
