the gunslinger 3,366 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Apologies - associated was my word. Burrows says Watson doesn't work with the club. Ah fair enough. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,596 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 If the stewards/Plod were not so interested in watching/videoing/listening to the Rangers fans they would/could/should have prevented this!,but we all know the way plod operate,don't prevent or intervene just let them get on with it and then we can watch some cctv,then release photos to get the public to do their job for them! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,691 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 One among them who says that both pies missed seems to grasp the irony of it. He didn't get hit thankfully but it was close and we were inches away from disaster. If he had been struck then there would have been repercussions. I'm no fan of stewarding and policing but I'm afraid our guys go on about 'heavy hands' and yet can't seem to behave themselves. The list of incidents gets longer and longer and the reputation of the club is suffering, so might our bank balance when we are already struggling financially. In a sense the club has to do things like this now because our fans just can't be trusted having been given warning, after warning all to no avail. The 'we, the persecuted' chat starts to wear thin after a while and we are getting to that point pretty rapidly now. Everyone knows where the line is, and yet some of us can't seem to stay on the right side. If these guys have the club at heart they need to start showing it in a way that really counts. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RabiDuck 89 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 Controversial thought (for some at least) but if we, as a support, give them nothing to focus on regarding the singing, then they wont have anywhere else to look when it comes to these matters. Yes, throwing of objects into the field of play, aimed at visiting players is obviously a bigger concern than singing, at least to any right minded person. But if we're not singing things we shouldn't be (whether you agree or not, that's what has been determined) then they can't focus on us. If we can clean up our act as a support then we can force the attention elsewhere as we need to! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RabiDuck 89 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I didn't notice any mention of offensive singing at the weekend? That's good to hear, presumably means there wasn't any as it would be reported heavily if there was! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,691 Posted July 19, 2016 Author Share Posted July 19, 2016 (edited) I didn't notice any mention of offensive singing at the weekend? Comment by a Motherwell punter. As for Police Scotland, it basically sums up the way football fans are treated in this country. Absolutely disgusting scenes, and a problem that was CREATED by the Police. Had they not attempted to kettle fans in there would have be no issues. The fact this was going on whilst Rangers were singing sectarian songs makes it even more ridiculous. It doesn't matter what they do. If they were throwing darts at our players "sectarian songs" would still be raised as a more serious issue.

But that is what plod are instructed to do!,it is all about Rangers,everything that is wrong with Scottish football is Rangers! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,473 Posted July 19, 2016 Share Posted July 19, 2016 I didn't notice any mention of offensive singing at the weekend? Not to mention "sectarian" singing. It probably doesn't matter what we sing, it is all "sectarian" ... If you tell a lie often enough, they say. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
