The Moonster Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Rangers fans: Love is a racist and you shouldn't employ him. Also Rangers fans: Love sounds like a tarriers name, he just looks like one of them. 13 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If your issue was us signing Ally Love then you should've been posting on here in May, chief. You can't just have an issue with it because he's fouled one of your players. 5 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

GordyBrow Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 Imagine getting so rattled by your B-team having a match against a bunch of part-time jobbers. Utterly bizarre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody here has actually defended Loves past, nor justified the club signing him. If you were here in May you would've found comments from Sons fans saying they weren't happy about his past, but for many it's not an issue to stop supporting the club, we've had actual criminals play for us previously. We aren't a community owned club, the fans can moan or withhold their money but the club is privately owned and will sign who they want, and ultimately Love will be here for a season or two and away again. In any case we won't be taking moral guidance from one of the most bigoted bunch of c***s to walk this fine land, nor from a shite wind up merchant on The Pie and Bovril Football Forum. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Shall we go back through the years and look at who your club has employed over the years....... A Rangers fan taking the moral high ground on racism, that's a belter! Half your fans didn't know the B team were even playing last night, some of the comments of social media are a disgrace, some laughable but nearly all point to your fans being nothing but a bunch of scum bags. Anyone giving out death threats or abuse over a bad tackle that happens in nearly every game of football is a weirdo. He's a precious prodigy I hear you say! Well treat him like one and don't have him kicking about in your B team on cow fields against lower league jobbers! Anyway, jog on back to yourcown thread, you must have a big team to play sometime soon! 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

George Parr Posted August 24, 2022 Share Posted August 24, 2022 The acrobatics being employed on twitter to link Ally Love’s late challenge to every deep-seated problem in Scottish football is quite something. These c***s will have him pinned as the second gunman on the grassy knoll by the end of the evening. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prayers are with you @BallochSonsFan please don’t watch. Its as bad as the shite footage was. Love leaves the ground when he's diving into the tackle. It isnt a straight leg, but that doesnt make a difference if Love catches Lowry's standing leg properly. As it is, Lowry doesnt have all of his standing weight on that leg, the force of the tackle puts him in the air and he lands awkwardly. Were you happy with Kevin Nichol's tackle in the last league game of the season that earned him his red? You happy if somebody goes in like that on Finlay Gray? The higher quality video is no better than the shite one from the stand. It was a shite tackle that Love didnt need to make. Red card all day long and dangerous. If it was anybody tackling Gray like that then we'd be raging. We were raging when it was Kevin Nichol. One such post that might jog your memory?

I thought his performance yesterday was a disgrace. He flew into a couple of challenges before the red card one which if he had connected properly they would have been horror tackles. He just looked absolutely desperate to hurt someone which is a bizarre attitude for anyone to have nevermind a seasoned pro like him, especially is a fairly tame end of season deid rubber. I’ve always quite liked the guy but after yesterday I’ve decided he is an absolute walloper. That doesnt give Rangers fans any right to behave the way they have done. I've seen fans calling for karma in the form of a career ending injury. I've seen them calling for Love to get a kicking. I've seen them suggesting that it was criminal assault. I don't remember the same when Roofe broke an opponent's jaw in several places. I don't remember them being so understanding when the Slavia fans went after Roofe on social media. Football fans of all persuasions are hypocrites. Subjectively our players are angels. Objectively players at every level of the game are capable of the occasional monumentally bad decision. Its football. It happens. Edited August 24, 2022 by BallochSonsFan 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mad that it's 2022 and the best footage we can get of a game has been lifted straight from a Nokia 3310. Anyway. It's not a good challenge. But from that angle I'd say it's also not even the most dangerous challenge I've seen in the second-half of a game at the Rock this season. That goes to Stirling's Cammy Clark for just about decapitating Aron Lynas. Oddly though I didn't feel the urge to start giving him death threats and Tweeting his Mrs. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’ve always quite liked the guy but after yesterday I’ve decided he is an absolute walloper. Wow, imagine digging that up to somehow back your argument up you strange man. On the subject of the Kevin Nicol tackle (not that is remotely relevant to this incident whatsoever) he was brought on as a sub and decided to lunge into every tackle he possibly could. He finally connected with one of his lunges and was rightly sent off. It wasn’t just a shocking tackle, the guy was clearly out to snap someone from the minute he was subbed on. His tackle was a leg breaker. Ally Love’s tackle isn’t great because it’s late but he he quite clearly comes in from the side and attempts to win the ball. Your big team mask is slipping pretty badly here fella. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your big team mask is slipping pretty badly here fella. Or how about just accepting that it was a shite tackle, that Love deserves criticism for it and that we've been raging when opponents have tackled ours in a similar way. Just like you were after the Clyde game. What the player doesnt deserve is the lunatic fringe of Rangers fans going after him or his family. Same fans who'll say with a straight face that Roofe was unlucky and that it wasn't assault on the Slavia keeper. Most observers would suggest that anywhere other than a football pitch and Roofe was facing jail time. If you want to apply a different standard to Love because he's a Sons player than to Kevin Nichol because he tackled a Sons player then wire in. I don't do double standards. A bad tackle is a bad tackle. Love was stupid and reckless and we could have no complaints if it had been a straight red. It's unlikely to be something that attracts further discipline at that level of competition, but it's not a good tackle and if it was a Rangers player on Finlay Gray then Sons fans would be raging. If there was to be further disciplinary action then we'd have little complaint and could be without Love for several games. We wouldn't go as far as to target the opponent for abuse and threats. We're better than that. But fan behaviour doesn't change the tackle. All it really does is highlight the extreme behaviour of a minority of absolute bellends. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
