Bendarroch Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I thought withiut reconstruction you lot didn't want to be in the SPL, or are you shifting the posts? I wan't a return to the top leagues asap. I hope reconstruction sees us fast-tracked right back there. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Fair enough, but I think you're making assumptions about how Rangers fans in general would feel, based on your own view. I think the clamour among Rangers fans to be in SFL3, really only gained much momentum when it started looking like the Newco's likeliest destination. If some sort of elevation really did look to be on the cards, I'm not sure that all Rangers fans would see this as you do. No i'm going to disagree, when the SPL tried to keep us in the SPL but hamstrung for 5 years was when most fans realised that we should be pushing for a clean slate in the 3rd division. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bendarroch Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 It may happen and I imagine the whole of Scottish Football would be up in arms about it That would be just fucking peachy. We need to get back and allow those keyboard warriors a real chance to show their mettle. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shades75 Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Poor lad, he thinks he has a bone and he is the 1st ever person to find out that the SFA have broken a rule, but they have other rules that contradict what his interpretation is, also it looks like Rangers membership was never terminated, which would make his interpretation null and void It seems according to this article that our SPL membership was transfered to Dundee. 2/10 for effort tho. I'll remember this next time I see your "New clubs must be GRANTED a membership" spiel regurgitated again :-). As you were. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrik's tongue Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I disagree, but admire your gall. This is what is great about the Rangers support, united in loyalty but with many different views, the P & B view is that we are all one sterotype. I just think you are all wankers 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know that I try very hard not to stereotype any group ever. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Henrik's tongue Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 I would say the vast majority of P & B are anti Rangers, seems like a good example of a stereotype to me. What is your view on the majority of Rangers fans? They're anti Rangers and Celtic. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Monkey Tennis Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 (edited) Again I am sure you given your resouces you will have a log on to FF Don't be so daft. I've clicked on a link to RM from here a few times, but my obsession is yet to reach having a 'log-on' levels.

Alright, even if that's true - and I'm not convined to be honest - then it was motivated more by GIRUY sentiment and the wish to be somewhere you'd win all the time, rather than any genuine desire to take your medicine. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedsailor Posted January 6, 2013 Share Posted January 6, 2013 Really? not doubting you and that SPL share does ring bell, in which case we had no membership to terminate which makes that whole paragraph 17.1 or 15.1 (as it is now) completely irrelevant, thanks for clearing that up stoney, Dens will be devastated though When you put it like that, it does make sense. I am quite happy now that all is as you guys say is correct, I wont say otherwise until there is better evidence than UEFA.com's linking the current squad to Rangers profile. It's all about facts at the end of the day, and evidently you support the same club. A piss poor club atm but the same club none the less. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shades75 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 (edited) I would say the vast majority of P & B are anti Rangers, seems like a good example of a stereotype to me. What is your view on the majority of Rangers fans? I'm anti Rangers. I'm anti a lot of other teams to varying degrees though, and the ones that I'm not is generally because they don't really register on my scopes. I think that is essential to the tribalism and unconditional support of one team. Maybe just a concession being that I'm not actively anti, but passively anti in most cases (does that make sense). I think that there is a superiority and arrogance that's exhibited by a lot of Rangers fans. It's obvious, to me at least, that it is born out of being, at least historically, the biggest and best in the context of football. There is also the weight of numbers that means that for any argument or viewpoint brought up, there will always be someone around to back them up. It makes it very easy to pick a fight or bully (in metaphorical senses at least). Some of the thickest ones take this to extremes in the form of bigotry and sectarianism. I've had some personal experiences of this (working in Harthill with a green & white van is not to be advised!). However. The above are the worst of it and I don't see that as being the majority. Some others might get swept with the tide at times (there is the big crowd psychology that affects us all) but it is not inherent within them and doesn't define who they are as a person. A human being is a human being regardless of the colour of shirt that they wear. On this forum the Rangers fans I interact with have their own personalities. There are some that I avoid, mainly because I think they are childish and quite frankly thick, but that is true of other teams too. There are others I'll quite happily shoot the shit with though. That's quite a long winded way of saying "f**k knows", maybe I'll think about it some more. Edited January 7, 2013 by Shades75 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

youngsy Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 No I know you are aware of the question. Rule 17.1 as previously quoted. Did the SFA break the rule .. yes or no. Mibees aye........mibees naw. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Shades75 Posted January 7, 2013 Share Posted January 7, 2013 Good post shades, not much i can disagree with here, I would agree many of our fans are arrogant but I sometimes think arrogance is mistaken for defiance, there is rightly or wrongly shed loads of this and it goes well beyond the fans, Charlie has tapped into it perfectly it seems. Now him I don't like. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Garbage ...everyone connected with rangers spent months begging for newco to go into the spl with their constant threats of clubs going to the wall etc....like sally for eg 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
