Exactly this. Tragic that we have muppets on here referencing Rangers/Rangers fans, screaming the H Word and talking about The Union when, for the most part, the Rangers fans on here are also Scotland fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Kuro Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 5 minutes ago, This time Perthshirebell said: It's a fair point. Many Rangers fans actively campaigned for their nationality not to be Scottish. That's why they celebrate their country losing and support NI and England. They also have a union jack in their dressing room these days. Colours nailed firmly to the mast, they're an anti-Scottish institution. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RobbieD Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 I speak to random fans at every game. Never once have I asked, or been asked, which club I follow. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The_Kincardine Posted June 10, 2019 Share Posted June 10, 2019 (edited) 11 minutes ago, This time Perthshirebell said: Can you see why most Scots find this football club and their apathy toward Scotland deeply embarrassing? No of course not. A 'fair few' football fans concentrate on their club, be it Premiership or Juniors, and 'a fair few' are indifferent to the national team. Not my own position as I went to my first Scotland game before you were born but is a perfectly reasonable line to take whichever team you support. What sensible people do find unreasonable is the number of air-headed fandans screeching about Rangers on a Scotland/Cyprus thread.

"Rangers fans for the most part support Scotland" is beyond dispute. The same statement could be made for every club. "For the most part" but not universally true. I have no idea why you're even trying to contend it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's all water off a dug's back...to coin a phrase. The true truth is that muppets like you and a few others have contrived to turn a Scotland match thread into shite about Rangers. Not that I am in the least bit surprised. -1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Probably 7 support Scotland, 3 don't care and 5 actively want Scotland to crash and die and hate the SNP. Rangers fans are the clear outlier in Scottish football, with a large section that hates Scotland. Can we try again and ask you - for the benefit of the forum - In you opinion - what percentage of the Rangers support, actively hates the Scotland team and backs other international teams like NI, Israel and England..? Hmmm, in my catholic secondary about a quarter of us supported Scotland. The rest were Celtic/roi fans. Hardly an outlier. I don’t even care tbh. Like a lot of diddy supporters Scotland are my big team. There was a “club v country” thread a few months back and it turns out that all clubs have supporters who don’t care about the national team. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Moomintroll Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 When are people on here going to realise that Kincy deliberately chooses his avatars to wind people up? On the evidence it appears to be a failsafe tactic, the majority of Rangers fans I grew up with supported Scotland sometimes to the point of near insanity with their expectation levels. Having said that everyone at my School, as far as I was aware, were Scotland supporters. This petty England/RoI thing seems to be a fairly new phenomenon with regards to the desperate race to the bottom that is engulfing supporters of those teams. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In my experience fans of clubs outwith the old firm either actively support Scotland or just don't care, however most seem to count themselves as Scotland fans. On the other hand I've noticed in recent years that many of the old firm fans seem to actively dislike / hate Scotland and prefer Rep Ireland or N Ireland or England depending on their religious persuasion. Is this Football related ? is it Political ? Is it because they "identify" more with these other countries ? or are they just trying to annoy fans of the so called "diddy" teams ?? Who knows, however what I do know is that we can't paint all these old firm supporters as the same as I know of lots of both Rangers & Celtic fans who never miss a Scotland match and support them through thick and thin. We may not like what either of these clubs stand for in the domestic game, however it's too easy a stereotype to make that all Rangers fans are English supporting Unionist and Protestant bigots and all Celtic supporters are Irish supporting rebels and Roman Catholic bigots. They're not. Supporting Scotland is ALL that matters and everyone is welcome irrespective of their football club, politics, colour or religion.............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
forameus Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Am I the only one that doesn't really care if some Rangers fans want to support England/Celtic fans want to support Ireland? Plenty of them will support our country, good for them. Others won't, who cares? 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
swing_kinker Posted June 11, 2019 Share Posted June 11, 2019 Exactly. Loads of them support Scotland, loads don't. A huge amount let a football team dictate their politics though which I find utterly bizarre. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
