The Old Tolbooth Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 You really couldn't make this up! RST Calls For Dundee United Boycott Monday, 12 May 2008 In recent days, Dundee United have now heaped embarrassment twice on themselves and Scottish football. By supporting the fixture scheduling demanded by the cowardly hand of hidden forces that permeates Scottish football their anti-Rangers agenda was exposed. Now their disgraceful attack on one the most respected referees in our game appears to have reinforced their bitterness against our club. Today's laughable 'complaint' shows all the recklessness of a Willo Flood passback. The RST calls for Rangers to decline any ticket allocation for Tannadice next season and urges all Rangers supporters to back this course of action. Let's see whether the loss of at least ?250,000 income is easier to swallow than their anti-Rangers bile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Eldar Hadzimehmedovic Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 Best news I've heard in ages. D Utd should preempt it and ban the lot of them. EDIT - Better still, who would support a breakaway SPL without the OF? Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Boab Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I think they have jumped in a wee bit too quick with the "most respected referee..." statement.McCurry has,today,admitted that he made a pig's ear of it on at least two occasions.

luckydug Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I think the Rangers fans are needing a few arithmetic lessons. For Utd to lose ?250,000 @ approx ?25 a ticket Rangers would need to take 10000 fans to Tannadice.The actual loss to Utd would be about ?125,000(roughly the same as McCurry's dodgy decisions cost them on Saturday).

NEILY1874 Posted May 12, 2008 Share Posted May 12, 2008 I take it they meant Mark Kerr? Willo Flood gifted the huns a point in the 3-3 game at Tannadice with a dodgy passback which Boyd scored from. Id have thought theyd use Mark Kerr as the example due to his mistake being much more high profile. The cynic in me says that Mark Kerr isnt irish, so isnt the preferred target.

The thing is, with boycotts the tickets are still bought by Rangers so it wont effect the other clubs unless Rangers put in an official request to not recieve any tickets. So Utd won't lose any money and as there is no Huns going to be there its a guarenteed Setanta match Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I would love nothing more than all chairmen or managers in the SPL to come out and support Utd on this one? From various forums I have seen the last few days it seems all non-OF fans seem to agree with Utd, but its the ones in a (how do the SFA put it) "responsible position" who should be speaking out? Also, I see the Ref has came out and agreed he made mistakes with the penalty incident and the 'offside...no sorry interfering with play'......but its all ok now coz he admitted he is wrong?

Yup, i'd have been FAR happier to see something on the Hearts website today backing up CL and Utd, rather than seeing that soppy love in related "back gretna tonight by giving them your money" article. The thing is, once one or two clubs did it, i'm sure others would follow suit - it seems to me that noone has the balls to be the first to speak out.

I dont think that happens with the OF if they request the whole stand. If that was the case then when the Huns were ****** a couple years back and they were not filling out the stand at ER they would have sent the tickets back for Hibs to sell. I think Hearts do the same to Hibs when it comes to the Roseburn now. Gretna and the likes are different as it's pay at the gate, and they get the minimum req that has to be allocated.

Hagar the Horrible Posted May 13, 2008 Share Posted May 13, 2008 That guy Edgar is more delusional that the accoutants at the San Giro? Does he actually represent any actual Rangers fans? I thought they were set up to buy shares in the Club to return ownership to the real fans? so i take it Sir Dave is not a real fan then? and judging by the fact that SDM has ended up owning more of the club after the last flotation the RST failed miserably? Dont rant too much Edgar you wont be missed at Tannadice or at any other league ground, real fans will always support their team and if they dont then perhaps the home support will turn it into a family game? Do you live at home with your Mum she might not let you go to away games in any case? I also liked the rant about SPL reps being told to stay away from Manchester as they did not help Rankers in Europe "In light of their pathetic, though sadly predictable, refusal to in any way help Rangers in their quest to deliver a European trophy to Scotland, we would like to make it clear that the Rangers Support will find it wholly unacceptable if any representative of the SPL was to attend this match in an official capacity. Through exposing the bitter and cowardly hand of hidden forces that permeates and controls Scottish football, the SPL have made it clear that Rangers FC are treated differently from other clubs in the same league, a fact addressed by Sir David Murray yesterday and by several neutrals in the Press today. To any representatives of the SPL, we say simply this; Do not come - you are not welcome." Guess what i know loads who are going? sad little man!
