With regards to the statement, its better than nothing but words are cheap. If action against racism is dealt with in the same way as sectarianism is then little will change. Tyder. I would hazard a guess that every club has racist supporters among them (remember Mark Walters and a banana skin for example). I would never condone that and neither do the club. And as far as I am aware every single Rangers player knelt last week. But never mind that. Its the bile against Scotland's greatest side that matters. Stand on K.... Better not say that word, the guy from Follow Follow is back on and thinks it condescending. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The script I've been getting on here and from a Hun friend is that everything is kosher, the original strips (50,000) sold out via Rangers and Castore, and that once they were restocked the strips would be available again, via a new Rangers/Castore website launching on August 1st. House of Fraser is just another retailer who will be selling the kits, among others. No-one really able to say why they still offer pre-order. Have I got this right so far? The alternative narrative appears to be that Rangers/Castore were breaking a standing contract between TRFC and Sports Direct. They got their feet held to the fire for what they had set up and sold (Pre-orders), so they had to pull their websites. Ashley has exclusive rights and this is why the whole thing ground to a halt shortly after it was launched, apart from House of Fraser. August 1st will see Sports Direct/Frasers as the only place to buy Rangers kit, unless they allow Castore/Rangers to sell via the newly launched website, with a slice going to Big Mike. Something doesn't add up. I’ve not checked it out but sure I read that House of Fraser are no longer offering he pre order. Much like the SD “exclusive retailer” blurb that came out it could just be a bit of mischief making from Ashley. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

FWIW I dont think that you or Rangers club condone it, but IMO the club does not go anywhere near far enough to stamp out sectarianism and I have no reason to think they will make more effort on racism. Its a pity as they probably could kill 2 birds with one stone. You have said yourself that you dont mind the ( sectarian ) singing , and thats part of the problem, some people seem to think its just a laugh. You will never eradicate it with that attitude. Rangers go on about being a big family, well I dont know what kind of family they are. If anyone was singing that pish in my house they would be out on their arse. Rangers are the Dot Cotton of football. Totally unwilling to recognise and deal with the rotten apples in their family. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Parklife Posted July 21, 2020 Share Posted July 21, 2020 Thanks VDA. What's the hopes for the season ahead? Can't say I'm all that positive about it, particularly if big sam is sold (and not replaced) I never even mentioned follow follow, so I've no idea where he's pulling that shit from.

I'm never positive about Aberdeen or scottish football. 3rd will be the aim and a decent cup run. I am looking forward to the scottish cup, thats about it.

Apart from them............... 😳 Joking aside, we had 9 players from our Academy that featured. I know there was only about half of your team that are even first team squad players but piss taking aside thats a decent output from the academy. Not saying our squad will be enough to keep us up but I’m happy to see the direction we are taking. For wee clubs like us, its the best and frankly the only way forward. 👍 Edited July 22, 2020 by Jim Beem Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

sbcmfc Posted July 22, 2020 Share Posted July 22, 2020 Who the fuck plays their strongest 11 in all their pre season games anyway? 😂 Think Motherwell will have learned more about our weaknesses than our strengths.

The majority of Rangers and Celtic fans have their beliefs and traditions. You nor I nor Rangers FC are going to change that. A magic wand isn't the real world Tyder. We live in the real world of Scotland where we have issues with bigotry. Terrible I agree but also factual. Only way is education but that will take a long while I am afraid.
