AB1872 Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 1 hour ago, Merkland Red said: Surprised to see almost all Rangers fans online having a go at the board here. Usually you see a massive amount defend the club, no matter what. It’s pretty difficult to defend the indefensible! Just because we don’t all jump online to condemn a certain section of the support every time they embarrass the club doesn’t mean we are happy with it. Over years the club made great strides to be more inclusive and I’ve always championed these initiatives but the kind of behaviour we’ve seen over the last couple of weeks at Dens has been creeping back in and this boards failure to address the problem just emboldens the bigoted arseholes who follow the club. They now believe they are untouchable! Arseholes to a man (boy) ! Leaving the fan issue aside you then have this utter shambles of a friendly. The board must have known we would be caught up in the scandal that’s going on with Celtic and we’ve already seen it described as an ‘Old Firm’ problem in the Aussie media. It’s being billed as an Ange homecoming and good luck to them but why did our board believe it would be a good idea to jump onboard with this ? £££££££ signs is all they saw and forget the supporters feelings! All Sevco jokes aside it was the support who saved the club. It was our loyalty through the banter years that kept the lights on while we were fleeced by one Spiv after another! I’m not forgetting the role Paul Murray played or John Giligan or Dave King but without the supports loyalty the club would not be here today! It seems to me , once more, we have a board who have lost all connect with the support. Club 1872 are supposed to be the voice of the support but as predicted right from the start they are now nothing more than a few individuals whose only interest is getting one of them on the board. Again our support taken advantage of by those who have only their own interests at heart. On a personal note Chris Graham is an arse and those opposing him such as Big Marshall are equally as bad! Im 53 now. I’m one of the grumpy auld b*****ds whose seen it all before and I’m tired of the bickering and infighting. An Aberdeen poster recently asked me if I actually enjoyed going to the football and I never answered him. The answer is not nearly as much as I used to. I never thought I’d see the day I’d even consider not renewing but at the moment it’s 50/50 at best. Golf , weekends away with the Mrs, trips to the Etihad and even a few lower league games at grounds I enjoyed and to complete the list is more appealing than sharing a stadium with some the backward arseholes that care more about singing shitty songs than the club itself 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Who are these people that are no more because The Rangers won 1 major trophy in 10 years at a cost of 100 plus million? I’m guessing it’s some of ‘the peepul’ based on those facts. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's an easy few million for the club to play a few bounce games. Edited March 23, 2022 by bennett 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted March 23, 2022 Share Posted March 23, 2022 14 minutes ago, steelmen said: What is the issue with the Australian game? It’s just a friendly that is going to pay a lot of money to both teams? I think there are a few factors as to why fans oppose it. Firstly, it is pretty tinpot. I always laughed at EPL teams facing each other in pre-season friendlies. It just seems to diminish any rivalry and moves towards the casual/tourist market. Secondly, we would be facing a club that refuses to even type our name in their communications. Fans that demanded an apology from one of their directors for his eulogy about Walter Smith. Some Rangers fans see it as us enabling them to make money on the back of a rivalry they claim they are not part of. Thirdly, as Celtic announced it before anyone else did, we're now playing catch up and it's already been billed as Ange's homecoming with us tagging along. I think protesting against it is entirely valid as by simply deciding not to attend it does not correct all of the above points. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
