This sanctimonious shit is out of hand. What happened to live and let live? When did the thought police take over.? What reason would any normal person have to boo our own players for making an anti-racism gesture? As far as I can tell, only someone who supports racism. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tav has been quite clear in his letter, it aint political, it aint in support of any group, its in support of OUR players who were racially abused. How difficult is that to understand? Its really simple, boo tomorrow and you are disrespecting our BAME players who've been racially abused. Ps - How hard is it to sit in silence for 10 seconds? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Moon 1,300 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I just don't get it. I have never booed a Rangers player or the team. I suspect those who boo taking the knee would boo if we weren't 3-0 up by half time. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If they can't support them in an anti-racist gesture, I would suggest they shouldn't support them full-stop. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bill 13,717 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 The issue for me isn’t booing (because that’s just not going to happen), the issue is a certain kind of fan who exudes sanctimony and takes it upon himself to go out hunting with a sharpened race card. Surely that’s a far bigger threat to unity than anyone who might feel inclined to boo. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely that’s a far bigger threat to unity than anyone who might feel inclined to boo. It already has happened at the Brighton and Real Madrid friendlies - a very vocal minority. Who in their right mind gets back to Ibrox after 499 days and the 1st thing they do is boo our Championship Winning Team for an anti-racist gesture? Can fans not see how utterly mental that is? Did you read Tavs letter? Ever one of our BAME players was racially abused last season and their own fan boo them for sending out an.anti-racist message. 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely booing the team on the park is divisive? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,294 Posted July 30, 2021 Share Posted July 30, 2021 I always take political, moral and ethical guidance from sportsmen. Anyone who doesn't is clearly a racist scumbag. The knee is here to stay. Racist scum will have to deal with this gesture for all time. I hope they choke on it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nobody is asking you to - if you don't agree, fine, but why boo? Sit silent of 5-10 seconds - simples. Or better still engage with said sportsmen and tell them tour thoughts.

compo 7,055 Posted July 31, 2021 Share Posted July 31, 2021 A simple question, how do we show our displeasure for any gutless shit performance we serve up and we will have those performances. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
