ian1964 10,870 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 COPS are set to probe sick thugs who daubed a death threat to Rangers No2 Ally McCoist, at a graveyard where Ibrox legends are buried. Yobs defaced Craigton Cemetery in Glasgow with the words 'Hang McCoist'. Last night a Rangers spokesman said the club was "disgusted" by the slur on assistant boss McCoist. Cops said they would investigate. Club heroes buried at Craigton include ex-boss Bill Struth. Meanwhile, a further twisted Facebook web page showing Celtic boss Lennon showered in blood has been set up.

bluebear54 0 Posted April 22, 2011 Share Posted April 22, 2011 What is irritating is every Tom, Dick and Harry climbing on board and highlighting their own agenda and blaming Rangers v Celtic games for their woes. Take domestic abuse for example. I don't know one Bear/Bearette who beats up their partner. Now you can't argue with statistics, and everyone says there is a spike in domestic abuse after Rangers/Celtic games. So why is it caused by Rangers or Celtic? it not caused by heavy drinking? What are the root causes? Was the tendency there already? Of course it's simplistic to blame Old Firm games. But, like the Celtic PR campaign, the more ya sez it, the more they believes it. What is happening is every organisation from "Save the Whale" to "Surfers against Sewage" scrambles to get their agenda covered in the media frenzy surrounding Rangers Celtic games. And the police are no better - a lot of their press releases are little else than thinly disguised pressure for more funding. I was thinking last night that maybe it's time for a parting of the ways for Rangers and Celtic. Let's just play in different leagues. Surely that would make the media happy, the police happy and all these pressure groups happy? Just think - it happens and Bingo - no more domestic abuse, no more sectarian violence - all gone. And the papers can write about nice things. Aye right! Be careful what you wish for ........ 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
