hellbhoy Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 You are the one that has not got a clue. You didn't know about the Saltire on the strips. You had no idea that the support had made a concious effort to bring in more Scottish flags to the games. There is not a chance you are in anyway a Rangers supporter. The utter hatred in this post would do Captain Sensible proud. We will keep our flag because...well it is OUR Flag!! We will continue to fly both proudly above our stadium. OUR FLAG ! REALLY ? Union Jack origins below circa 1800. However, this design also provoked fury north of the border because now the cross of St George was “imposed” on that of St Andrew, much as the English had been imposed on the Scots. The Scottish Privy Council warned: “This will breed some heat and miscontentment betwixt your Majesties subjects.” The Scots also objected to a design that appeared to chop the Scottish flag into four pieces. Despite this technical supremacy, and the fact that the flag has been ordered and endorsed by a Scottish king, the Scots remained unappeased and Scottish heralds produced their own designs. One of these was accepted as an alternative for Scottish shipping, and is still occasionally seen elsewhere. In this variant, St Andrew’s cross is placed over St George’s cross. As far away as the West Indies this compromise caused “great quarrels” among British sailors, who, not being experts in heraldry, simply saw either England or Scotland in the most prominent central position of each flag. The flag of James is more or less recognisable as the Union Jack of today, but lacks the red diagonals stripes. These derive from the cross of St Patrick, added when Ireland became part of the Union in 1801, to form the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. I put above in bold because if the orcs knew that they were actually flying the flag of St Patrick of Ireland they might want to think again and send it back homewards where it belongs ENGLAND :lol: . Lifted from http://www.totalpolitics.com/history/316507/how-the-union-jack-became-our-national-standard.thtml And the Union Jack is considered still in parts of Scotland to be THE TURNCOAT flag that was flown by Scots who rebelled against and killed their own countrymen and then became English redcoats imposing English rule and then gave us the Highland clearing ! remember that ?. Do you still want to fly that flag at Ibrox now No8 ? .Considering it's history it speaks nothing other than the English imposing it's rule over Scotland and has feck all to do with Scotland actually as we have our own flags ! see my avatar dude for one of them ?. The Union Jack is feck all to be proud off ! EVER !. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunfellaff Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 (edited) Do Celtic fans make a habit of throwing bananas at all Rangers players then? I see. Edited to add: beaten to it. Curses. I would have thrown the whole fruit bowl...........edit for ''at the Rangers players'' afore a cockjockey gets uppity. The difference was, if Walters, if not a Rangers player, walked past the Celtic crowd, guarantee zip would have been said OR thought. Guillit??????? Was it 'cos he played for Feyenord? You tell me.................. Nah, don't bother, Paisley was full of scum then. I ain't been back in years.

Happy Buddie Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Not been to Kilbarchan then? They weren't happy letting the Christian religion get a foothold and as for those of an R.C. persuasion. Sellick fans are like hen's teeth there. I didnae realise there was a Wickerman connection there. My aunt and uncle had the big detached house on the corner of Troubridge Crescent and Mackenzie Drive and I still have a cousin in Ramsay Crescent, and I have family in Elderslie and Johnstone, so obviously blissfully ignorant of any Druidic leanings. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

wunfellaff Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 people in glass houses shouldn't throw bananas wunfellaff Exactly why Mirren folk should be more circumspect. (that doesn't mean becoming a Jew for all you Orcs watching). If you had no previous, different. But the biggest 'OF'/ Celtic must die faction are St Mirren fans. Which makes it 'strange' to say the least. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Arthur Stramash Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Shame about all the baggage associated with the Union Flag, it's a cracking bit of design. Look at footage of Carnaby Street in the 60s/early70s, and it's all babes in Union Flag hot pants and the like. The Mods used to incorporate it, innocently so far as I know. Because of Rangers, the BNP and the Ulster loonies, using the design now is akin to wearing a Hitler moustache and shouting Sieg Heil. Nae green thingys left. Hilarious .... and true welshbairn! 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted July 19, 2012 Share Posted July 19, 2012 Title stripping smacks of the worst excesses of New Labour coffee table gesture politics to me, "Oooh, something must be done!" It also opens a can of worms. My club was eliminated four of five times from cup competitions by Rangers in the period specified as no doubt were other posters on here. Do we have the right to see financial redress and chase money of course that will never be paid. Utterly pointless. The SFA and SPL would be better imposing proper Financial rules that all clubs have to follow or risk points deductions and automatic relegations like in the Bundesliga rather than try and attempt to change history. Stewart Regan and Neil Doncaster as Nero figures, playing their violins whilst Rome burns. I honestly don't think I could agree with this any less. You only need to look at how upset Rangers fans are getting about the idea to realise that these titles matter and stripping the club of them is the right thing to do. Of course, it leaves unanswered things about what might have happened, but what's bloody clear is that the team who fielded ineligible players didn't win them fairly and must have them removed. I don't get the argument that says the future is what matters rather than the past. History is important, as evidenced by the battle raging over keeping it. The only way that history is complete and accurate is if the honours list is amended. For me, it's absolutely essential that people know for sure that Rangers weren't just a club who overspent, got sold to a shyster and hit the buffers. They were cheats and that must be recorded. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
