We could get rangers_syntax to ask them some obtuse, confusing questions while buster prepares a lengthy dossier on their misbehaviour. Failing that, we could get Rousseau to bore them to death with stats. After that, if they're still standing, I'm sure no one would be mad enough to take on Bill in a debate.

I hate internationals...

Twitter is fun today! the amount of old sectarian tweets from the Daily Record ''journalists'' is quite astonishing, great work from the guys who are now attacking DR with these.

Join a rugby club?

I once asked a middle class man what team he supported. "Oh, well, I support all teams, really!" They just don't understand the tribalism.

I love the tribalism involved in our rivalry with that lot. It's what makes it what it is. I'm a Unionist, who wants the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Northern Ireland to stick together, so have no issues with songs that support that or mock those who don't.

A good point but i think the ship has already sailed on those points. There is a massive free speech issue in this country and it is getting worse. From cancelling people with different views at universities, to big tech closing people down views they dont agree with (Chinese lab issue is perfect example) to even cancelling the US President, then the SG wanting children to inform on their parents if they "mis-speak" at home and on to Corporates and recruitment firms trawling through social media of prospective or current employees. The UK is not free by any means - and is probably now the most intollerent of free speech in Western Europe.

Do you know any Celtic fans who don't call us Huns? Out of interest, why do you keep telling us that you're against racism and sectarianism? Do you think that you're unusual in that respect that you need to highlight it so often?

I believe you might be an actual saint.

I think Gersnet will hold up very well to any scrutiny. Certainly far stricter on naughty words than some forums.

We all need to get behind the likes of Edgar. the club is under attack more than ever.. Likes of Gersnet etc will be next

It's the middle class move into football. No standing, no swearing, no songs they dont approve of, prices rising to keep out the masses, CCTV and stewards everywhere to make sure they feel safe, welcome to PL football.

I sometimes wonder if some supporters sit and squirm when they hear certain songs at Ibrox. After Hillsborough, the authorities decided to change their approach to football. Before that, it was something to be frowned upon - a pastime for the uncouth masses. After that, it has been viewed as a money making opportunity and they've tried to drive the unsavoury aspects away, which has been largely successful in the English top division. I get that people want a safe environment to watch the football but I had no idea so many football fans were such sensitive souls. I feel embarrassed for any grown man who is genuinely upset about a song sung by football fans - you must've had an easy ride if that's the sort of thing that bothers you.

What a silly soldier you are. You invent reality like it’s yours to create. No one said they weren’t bothered by racism, that’s just something you decided you were reading.

And by the way, there is a lot of cryptic messages on this thread that appear to be alluding to me without outright saying something. If you have something to say then say it, if you're all the adults you claim to be.

Not sure what you are getting at here bud, is it that you think it's too difficult to refrain from being racist or sectarian or that you think everyone is refraining from being racist or sectarian? It's funny that whenever these things happen (which is pretty regularly to be honest) people are defensive rather than just accepting that there are certain things we shouldn't say or do. It is possible to believe that certain factions in the media or society hold an agenda against rangers and rangers fans, whilst also believing that we continuously do this to ourselves.

oh he is something alright.

It's ironic that this story is predicated upon social media, specifically social media history. Whataboutery throws up lots of anomalies, many are condemned forever more because of stating a view ie Chris Graham -what's happened to him? As the sword of Damocles continues to hover over the guy that held Rangers Directorship for a day, others can progress seamlessly despite numerous vile offerings ie Malky MacKay. Who decides? Who is the Keeper of the Records? Today, former Sellik View Editor, Kevin McKenna enters the fray. A number of Gersnetters will know this stuff, others can enjoy the revelations. All the information is available on social media and it highlights seamless progress. Thirty years past, the Sellik View Editor was invited to attend a German broadcast media sponsored event at the then Glasgow restaurant, 'Vesuvio'. A dozen other football related Editors/Journos were invited too. Kevin arrived in a tired and emotional state and embarrassed himself and his club. He was taped expressing preferred prejudices including the IRA bombing of Enniskillen Remembrance Day was, "a legitimate act of war" and, "Protestant breed like rabbits". Kevin was on the front page of the Sun a couple of days later. He was allowed to resign from his designation and his seamless progress began. Kevin has been Sports Editor at Scotland on Sunday, where he gave Spiers his first national job. Kevin became Deputy Editor at the Herald, brought Spiers to the blat, Kevin was a Columnist at the Observer, Kevin became Assistant Executive Editor at the Daily Mail, ............... today Kevin is a columnist at the National, the Herald and, the Evening Times. I do not know if Kevin reflects on the eleven civilians murdered or the 63 injured on the 8th November'88 or, has given further thought on the copulation of Lagomorpha? These days, Kevin or as Stuart Cosgrove says, "Big Kev" is very much the Patriarch of the Green Brigade mindset. He is Godfather to Angela Haggerty's son, Francis. The Cardonald College educated Journo was Phil McFournames Editor for his tome, 'Downfall' and signed off on Phil's piece de resistance, 'the Incubator'. Phil criticised the New IRA for sending a letter bomb to Glasgow University's Jeanette Findlay two years past, closed down the whole Uni'. Jeanette Findlay founded Call it Out and never fail fails to promote Cairde na h'eirann. Call it Out championed Cannon Tom White and his trials with the Orange Order member who spat on him. Cannon Tom's Presbytery sits right next door to the Squirrel Bar, HQ of the Green Brigade. I could go on. Chain, chain, chain, ship of fools? It's for you to say. All those mentioned above are guaranteed seamless progress. They are the converted and Kevin continues to preach.

Burness Paull is an exemplary law firm and in that respect bears no resemblance to the majority of its kind.

There has always been a type of Rangers fan who is more concerned with policing our own support than any notion of media or political bias against our club. The self-righteous compulsion to conform is so strong in some that there will always be an open door for determined enemies. I wish they would take their sanctimony elsewhere.

SG is right, but unfortunately the Guardian has neither.

I don't think there is much that needs explaining but I feel it was always obvious that the media would trawl through forums/Twitter when the club aligned themselves with fan sites. We have already seen this with Chris Graham so it shouldn't have been unexpected. Personally I didn't think too much would come from the H&H alignment, but the FF one seemed very careless and I'm surprised that it's H&H that have come unstuck because it doesn't take much to find some ridiculous comments on the FF forum.

There's a new metric doing the rounds, ‘expected threat’ (or xT)...

And that is the real point, eh? As long as we're all right then the situation is okay. FFS.

I just listened to Mr Edgar tonight. Tremendous. Outstanding Get him in the dressing room before the next game against that mhob

These things are almost always hopium. Nevertheless you would like to think this episode will be unpleasant for some at the record. Such interesting times. I increased my subscription with Heart and Hand. I imagine many will do the same.

McGivern has been reported to the police for some of his tweets.

I’ve just been looking at a Facebook article which features an Indy march with a TORY SCUM OUT banner Whats the difference between that and the famine song? Both wrong in my opinion but one will end in prosecution and one won’t

You seem to have bought into this big time. Pretty soon we’ll be afraid to open our mouths for fear of offending someone. But you’ll still be happy in your conformity, right.

The EK bus one wasn't a fake. There's been suggestions that one of the city centre videos was a fake as the sounds and claps don't seem to match what was going on. I've seen another video that sounds like they're singing "the party's over, why don't you go home."

That's why they've been banned on this site for the last few years. However I'd also take this opportunity to remind all our users of their behaviour and responsibilities on this site even if I'd take no lessons in morality from hypocrites in the media.
