WhiteRoseKillie Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Yes Norman no fans of other teams have ever attacked Rangers, no siree they haven't. Fud. You might as well say that ticks attack rhinos, or fleas attack rats. While fans' groups representing other clubs have indeed demanded various actions, in every case they wanted fairness to be upheld. As Enrico, myself, and johnnyc have asked, what were these attacks? surely you can give examples. They must be burned into your poor persecuted wee brain. Paranoia - something else the peepul are world record holders in. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 You haven't answered my question, but really a surprised, used to deflection tactics from Rangers fans when discussing recent history. So what "attacks" have other teams fans carried out? You deliberately misquoted me. Now once you point out where i've said otherwise regarding "so it's other teams fans now" then i'll answer it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DomDom Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 The arguments from non-Rangers fans on the meaning of the word "attack" and serious goalpost moving sums up what has been wrong with this thread recently. It's only total wallopers left, and the decent Rangers supporters come across looking pretty good as a result. I mean... You might as well say that ticks attack rhinos, or fleas attack rats. While fans' groups representing other clubs have indeed demanded various actions, in every case they wanted fairness to be upheld. As Enrico, myself, and johnnyc have asked, what were these attacks? You could try reading... I don't know... any page of this thread? Stop dancing around it. It's not as if that wretched club don't deserve it anyways, so why start trying to avoid it? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I haven't, you said "attacked" i'm asking you what do you mean by that. Well according to a large majority of your fan base, you have "enemies" in the Daily Record, BBC Scotland, SPL, SFA. who are all out to get you, so i assumed you meant not "fans" but other organisations out to get the club.

Whether it's fans, the media, the other clubs, the governing bodies, or crabs off Culzean Shore - who exactly has attacked your beloved rangers, the new club, the old company, the holding company, the new company, or anyone connected with them? Simple question - chance of a simple answer? I'm guessing..... 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Stop dancing around it. It's not as if that wretched club don't deserve it anyways, so why start trying to avoid it? You could try getting, I dunno, a sense of perspective? You really think our bitching and moaning on here constitutes an "attack" on a multi-million pound business enterprise? In that case, I spend most days attacking BT, the Coalition, Ubisoft (fecking DRM!), poor film-makers, the USA (careful, now!), and a myriad others. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
DomDom Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 The answer to the first question is simple really. Yes. Perspective has not much else to do with it. Your attacks won't make much difference to anything but you're still doing it. Again though... why care? It's the most ridiculous bit of goalpost moving to justify something I've seen on here, made all the more ridiculous that it is entirely justifyable in the first place. They're a wretched club with bigoted fans and a chairman who makes Romanov seem sane. So get on with it and dismiss the moans of their fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedsailor Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 You never made a point to prove Feel free to contact CAB, Trading Standards, Watchdog or anyone else you can think of That would be the point that the numbers attending Ibrox are only so high because predictions of low crowds are percieved as a direct attack on your club. The siege mentallity, shown by your quote. Do not fear though, we shall keep mocking as long as we are fed the oxygen to do it and your crowd numbers will stay high. After all the state of your club is an extension of your ego is it not? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

flyingrodent Posted February 10, 2013 Share Posted February 10, 2013 Unless the two parties stuff each other with protracted legal action(s). So the SFA have the balls to do what Rangers fans never did until it was far, far too late - have a pop at Craig Whyte. Inbetween HMRC pursuing David Murray on behalf of the taxpayer and those very few hacks who had the stones to ask questions about his conduct back when it mattered, it looks a bit like Rangers fans might get a little bit of justice for what was done to their club, although through no effort of their own. They're clearly too busy praying for the whole Scottish game to explode to do anything about it themselves. Just as well this wasn't left to the Rangers fans though, since they would probably have put even more energy into urging Whyte to sue the BBC and demanding that Murray spend even more recklessly. So how do the Rangers fans respond, when other organisations are forced to fight their battles for them? By hoping those organisations get f*cked as well. That's gratitude, Ibrox-style. This is, in a nutshell, why you're stuck with an undead club, a terrible team, a comedy manager and a loony for an owner, lads. You'd think you'd have learned some lessons in the past year. Don't worry, though - there's still a good chance that somebody else will clean up behind you while you're organising more boycotts and fantasising about all the awful things Peter Lawell is plotting. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ah do you think the SFA are being swift in acting against Whyte? They couldn't have acted at a much earlier stage? Hmm. HMRC? The same sort of question could be asked about them over Whyte. For all the deluded nonsense and tiresome trolling on the subject, fans are just ordinary punters and it can be very difficult to do anything against, for example, a man who owns 90-odd per cent of the club (through his companies). Incidentally, the chances of the SFA actually getting any money out of Chalkie strike me as about the same as my chances of spending tonight with Kelly Brook.

Given the utterly feral and insane response of your fans to actions by the SFA, SPL and HMRC even after your club's misdeeds were known.... Well, you can imagine how your mob would've responded if any of these organisations had stepped in while the club was still theoretically viable. Which is why this "why didn't the SFA save us from Craig Whyte" shit is so hilarious. You lot would've done everything in your power to prevent it*. Everybody knows the why didn't the SFA save us stuff is only the best excuse you can come up with to pretend that you've been hard done by, somehow. *Although to be fair, "Everything in your power = the Big Hoose Guy whinging on STV". 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

That was the way they generally did things but maybe it should have been changed sooner. Like decades ago, Also I understand the SFA were informed at quite an early stage that Whyte wasn't paying the tax but they did nothing about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
