Please accept my apologies, I misread this

I think it's pretty obvious which songs/words cause a problem. You might want to look at the replies posted from the supporter liaison officer's twitter account though. See here: https://twitter.com/RangersFCSLO

A fool and his money are easily parted. Remember the legal challenge to the transfer ban? If I remember correctly we defeated the S.F.A. in court and they imposed the ban anyway. Afraid to say that if you dwell on challenging U.E.F.A. and F.A.R.E. then you are confusing issues. It can wait.

Quite. Let's hammer it home instead of throwing crumbs to outlets like the Daily Record.

This is why I post about it. When we share links to the Daily Record et cetera we are promoting them. It's providing free labour to people who don't deserve any help. I think that if we are going to promote anything it should be work produced by other Rangers supporters.

Yeah, I'm definitely referring to that. I can understand your curiosity and I used to share it. You will surely move past that soon though.

I suggest worrying about that problem when we have it. The unfortunate side effect is that many believe that they have an excuse until someone tells them what is forbidden in black and white.

To be consistent that club would be fined by U.E.F.A. Racist/Sectarian singing, however, will clearly result in a ground closure. We need to get our own house in order first.

Do you, by any chance, want to listen to a podcast about Rangers? Here are a few options so that you can avoid listening to anything provided by the legacy media outlets: Heart and Hand: The curious case of the Bornagain left back 4LadsHadADream: Episode 4 Gersnet: Beat the heat

Would that be the Daily Record Rangers podcast?

I'll be unnecessarily kind and describe this as a rather silly list of measures. We can rule out each of those apart from an increased stewarding presence. An increased stewarding presence would probably be quite sensible.

Has this happened yet? If not then there is no reason to think this.

Why do you need to ask this? I thought it was obvious that the problem is sectarian singing. That is to say dropping the F-bomb and unkind words about his holiness.

There seems to be a perception that we are being picked on by U.E.F.A. That we are the only team who was ever punished by U.E.F.A. Does the list of charges above do anything to dispel that notion? If so then can we drop any futile ideas about going after U.E.F.A. and F.A.R.E.

You're talking about fans who sing sectarian songs, right? Anything else would be a waste of time and a distraction right now.

I've never understood why people do this.

It doesn't matter. We need to stop making excuses. I don't want us to play closed door matches, or get kicked out of the competition, and then have to listen to people moaning "aye but what about celtic and fare?".

If you want to know what it would be like to hear Rangers supporter sing this you can change the playback speed to 2x.

I know the type that you mean. They just appear out of nowhere on European nights and will sing anything. I sit in MRE and these people stick out like a sore thumb. It can be funny to listen to one try to start up the billy boys while the rest of the section are either sitting in stony silence or catching up on some sleep. It's beyond a joke now though and if I encounter one tomorrow night, rather than laugh, I will just feel like telling him to shut up.

F.A.R.E. will position someone right next to our fans.

Are you really going to sit on the sidelines while we enjoy 30 pages of speculation?

This humility is quite incredible!

I think you may be right about good relationships with the media. That might lead you to wonder why she appears so excellent to the layman. I can't say much about her suitability for a number of reasons including, but not limited to, the following: I don't know what position we are supposed to be recruiting her for I've never recruited somebody for any aspect of the day-to-day running of a football club I don't know how to measure her performance in her current role All I really know about her is that she supports Rangers and works at Hibernian. As it happens we don't appear to be short of Rangers supporters at the club. So I'm not sure what she would bring that we need.
