Directors going to sort out what? Just because a volunteer penned the article, does not make it any less truthful. Still, a compliant "rest of Scottish football" is required to align with the media, and demand a strong The Rangers, which is obviously best for everyone. With the holy grail of 4 OF derbies being restored to its rightful position as the only reason Scottish football exists. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torness Tam Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Livingston are one small step away from administration again, so in getting a laugh and poking fun at Rangers they antagonise what will be one of their main revenue streams this season. Someone somewhere employed an outside source to print this not so subtle wind up. I have a soft spot for Livi, but in joining the vultures already struggling to find a scrap of meat on this already stripped clean carcasse they have possibly contributed to their own iminent demise. Not the best survival strategy insulting opponents in the match programme. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Torness Tam Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Not hurting mate, I,m no hun, although I was in my hairy youth, as can be seen if you check out my few previous posts, simply stating the obvious, that in what modern day universe is it acceptable to mock opponents in an official match day programme ?. Everyone one on here hates Hibs, everybody hates Rangers and Celtic. But we have too much class as a club to print an OFFICIAL match day programme insulting opponents no matter how much we may personally despise said clubs. Its classless and us being in the main part a classy club wouldnt do it ourselves, So we shouldn't think its a smart move when perpetrated by others.

Riccarton3 Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 If it's factual, it must be more hurtful than insulting. When you've been at the top it must be hard adjusting to the ultimate failure that is liquidation. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Torness Tam Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Yes indeed it is factual, and as you say we will be hosting a new club when they visit. but imagine a hypothetical scenario when the next time Hibs visit Tynie that OUR official match day programme prints a full double centre spread commemorating the day when we destroyed them for all time, with accomanying gloating comments, and referring to Hibs as perpetual losers, referring to their fans as lacking in personal hygeine, --- all these things may have an element of truth, but it would not bestow class on the club for printing them. I know and you know that should someone launch an orchestrated attack against our club in an official capacity--eg--a match programme or a newspaper article--we would be outraged and rightly so. I would hate a future when match programmes were used to initiate hatred and ill feeling towards opponents and that includes Hibs , Rangers, Celtic and the lot. Give opponents respect and you will receive appropriate respect in return-------you may say I'm a dreamer--but perhaps if we are going to save football from a dismal future we need to start by welcoming visiting fans with the class that would be expected from an historic club like Hearts, do so and football will be the winner---not slagging off visiting fans in the match programme.

Torness Tam Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 Der Hun doth protest too much methinks I should never have posted--I,m no Hun, but I'm an old hippy with a basic belief in love and peace to all men, I cant hate, Hibs, I cant hate Rangers nor can I hate Celtic--I love Hearts as much as anyone. You will note my invective has turned away from specific perceived insult to Rangers and onto the hate which is permeating football at all clubs towards others--it seems there is so much more hate in football these days and as an enjoyable family sport it is much diminished as a result My beardy, sandal wearing lentil munching hippy heart sinks when hatred is sold to the football attending fans in the guise of what should be a happy family orientated publication.

2NaFish Posted October 5, 2014 Share Posted October 5, 2014 "Really think that everyone should now just say that new and old gers are the exact same club from now on, and that there should be laws against telling the truth about new gers. That way the new gers fans will brainwash everyone into believing a myth." There's an old rangers. There's a new rangers. But they're the same. And anyone who points out that two different things, which apparently are the same, are in fact different should be arrested. About as over it as hibs are with 5-1.

Why do The Rangers fans get so wound up about hearing the trutha Cos it's painfully, almost unbearably (see what I did there) , hurting them. They want to keep pretending that nothing changed, same club, etc, etc, etc. Is it really true that Sevco are demanding an apology I hope Meadowbank Thistle are demanding an apology for yet another demonstration of sectarian bigotry by Sevco fans and their fans assault on the police.
