Every club gets criticised at one point or another including the one I support but you don't see is greeting and accusing Scotland fans of being anti Aberdeen.

TartanTon Posted October 11, 2016 Share Posted October 11, 2016 (edited) Back to booing. I booed. and booed loudly and i will do so again and no amount of happy clappers did or will stop me.. I wasn't booing the players but rather the ineptitude and bizarre tactics of our 'gaffer'. A man so far up his own bahookey us plebs should keep our mouths shut according to him. (and it seems some of those happy clapping fans think others have no right to express how they feel) The first half was one of one of the worst ever performances i've seen in my near 40 years going, the second half not far behind. The players lacked belief, direction and confidence. Thats the managers and coaches jobs, but is it little wonder when pre match the opposition is talked up rather than talking up our own abilities. If we somehow qualify it will be in despite of the manager. Maybe if we demanded improvements rather than this acceptance of 'being s***' we will one day start to compete again. Tonight for me is Strachans last chance. He should have went after the last abject failure but was 'persuaded' by a small chunk of our fans who lauded the failure like they were hero's. As for the club involvement (booing a player because he happens to play for a rival) are the actions of the seriously stupid.

For decades and decades we had the booing of players regularly due to petty old firm shite. But now a rangers player allegedly gets booed by some unknown small group and it is as if someone has committed some big crime? You fhucking what? Reminds me of the same fannies who after decades and decades of being mad bigots without a care suddenly are claiming straight faced that Hun is a sectarian term. They honestly think they can just reverse decades of reality by saying their shite over and over... and the amazing thing is they are partially right as there are some weak minded saps on here who seem to immediately go along with it. Just fhuck off with all this pish. A chunk of Rangers fans HATE the TA. That is a fact. This pish is just a lot of faux outrage whank from these utter twunts. a post of yours I can 100% agree with. I am old enough to remember the abuse dished out by rangers fans to any celtic player who had the temerity to play for Scotland. That was in the days when they thought Scotland belonged to them. then they changed to hating Scotland and the TA so will use any excuse to have a go at Scotland and the fans. Never heard any booing until half time and full time but, if it did happen, it's wrong but very very tame compared to decades ago. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That's not strictly true. There is a line that gets crossed when you would expect someone to speak out. Racist behaviour for instance.

My point to Ersatz was that social norms are everywhere, and he should look inhouse if he wants to talk about other clubs supporters not challenging offensive behaviour. That song was xenophobic, plain and simple, would Scotland fans challenge this? Or is it different because it's England? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The gift that keeps on giving And believe me I do challenge this minority (and it is a minority) of Rangers fans at every opportunity. Just like I challenge the minority of the Scotland support (as I have done on this thread) who bring their hate for Rangers into the TA/Scotland support.
