Squirrelhumper Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Nothing to so with a dig at Rangers. its statement of fact. Both clubs share large elements who support both sides. And it's not according to the sun. Pretty sad the apologists for bigotry. No wonder the country is riddled with this shite. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If you think thats in any way "banter" then I dispair. Banter is stuff like mocking a team for being shite, not mocking a player based solely on his religion. I've certainly not heard "banter" like that from anyone near me in 30 of years of watching domestic football home and away. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hope the posters above acknowledge their comments were misjudged, especially following the video evidence. It is a fact that large parts of both the Rangers and Chelsea support are vile bigoted arseholes. Continually seeing the calling out of this as being simply a dig at Rangers is just head in the sand stuff. Believe it or not, there’s decent people who really want to see an end to this stuff, regardless of what institutions this may upset. And, worse, to say it’s in any way ‘banter’ is acknowledging its existence but accepting its existence. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok the word 'banter' was definitely the wrong choice of word, but I was just dismayed that you would choose to bring this up on a Scotland forum. Without wishing to engage in whataboutery, I would hope that you would be equally assiduous in condemning some of the bile that emanates from Celtic Park which never seems to exact condemnation from the guardians of the law (songs which use the offensive word 'Huns' or wish players would die from a bullet from the IRA and so on..). As it was, it is for Chelsea FC to deal with. At least Rangers FC have acted swiftly in banning some of their followers and even assisting police in prosecutions.

McGregor and Turnbull will be ever presents this season guaranteed. I'd be surprised if Forrest, Taylor, Ralston and Welsh didn't also rack up 25-35 starts each as well. Then you have the likes of Adam Montgomery getting rave reviews. Him and Mikey Johnstone will get plenty of minutes. Where as it looks like Rangers will only use Patterson and McLaughlin very sparingly. Anyone else likely to see any real game time? Jack when he's fit hopefully.

Malcolm Posted September 13, 2021 Share Posted September 13, 2021 Celtic and rangers fans are equally bad. Both have elements that are sectarian and glorify terrorism. Equally bad. Other clubs are not without fault either. Hearts fans sang in the past “oh the Hibees are gay” but no longer do. I remember being at tynecastle when mark Walters was showered with bananas. Thankfully most fans have managed to move on but some haven’t. There are idiots in all support, it’s difficult to generalise any set of fans.

Can't understand anyone with any sanity that takes their kids into that type of toxic environment. The way of life thing is spot on as well...I'm a motherwell fan, and I'd like to consider myself as pretty partizan and 'dyed in the wool' but a few hours after the game finishes and I'm over it, win, lose or draw...these halfwits are so immersed in their hatred of each other that they boak at the thought of wearing a jacket that happens to be green or blue Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
