Alex MacDonald Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 As RobBox mentioned above, it's an orange training kit this season, to go with the many orange away kits of previous seasons, purely to satisfy the lowlife sectarian cravings of the MAJORITY of their support. Any normal national association would hang a club that blatantly supports the hatred generated from its own stands out to dry, but we have to live with a corrupt embarrassment that has separate rulebooks for the 2 clubs that happen to be closest to its HQ.

Spellczech Posted August 23, 2019 Share Posted August 23, 2019 Can imagine Rangers PR will be on the phone to the SFA as we speak, asking why the SFA is not telling UEFA off for doing this to them but not to Celtic. SFA will say "our hands are tied, Europa League is their competition...How about if we let Morelos off again for his next red card?".
