I call things as I see them. Unlike you. Rangers aren’t and won’t be the last last set of fans to go mental and celebrate their team winning the league. You trying to say you would be any different; your lying to yourself. 

Garbage comment. Intelligent people realise that there is a deadly epidemic in society. Knuckle dragging mouth breathing Rangers supporters might not but don’t label other supporters as being equally ignorant.

Folk can have thier opinion on both, it doesn't effect thier  Hearts supporting % either way- unless you're basing it on something more than football, and if you're doing that then your as bad as the celtic  and rangers ramjets and would be better getting a ST for Govan.

Rangers football club is built on anti-Catholic bigotry, that is a fact and a stain on our country. 

[Rogue Daddy]

It’s only natural to like one less than the other based on your own experiences etc. I, for one, think celtic fc as a club and their support are the worst I’ve ever encountered. Followed very closely by Rangers.... in fact, as much as I can’t stand hubz, I would still love to see a Scottish Football League without the uglies, most.  In fact I really believe it would be the making of Scottish football. Without a doubt both are a shitstain on Scottish Football - for all that they bring to the party... their fans, their religious bigotry,  their spfl/SFA, their media, their everything!

[Fozzyonthefence]

After the yellow card from the SG months ago you have to wonder how much worse things need to get for them to issue the red card.  Absolute arsehole / scummy behaviour from the Rangers fans yet still not condemned by the club.  But no surprise there, this is a club so arrogant it doesn’t even think child abuse by it’s employees warrants an apology.  
 

The SG should just pull the plug completely on football for this season and nobody could have any complaints.  Whether it is players or fans, they’ve had warning after warning and continued to behave like arseholes. 

[Bull's-eye]

Good luck to them and it's been an absolute pleasure not watching a single minute of any Premier League game this season.

 

First trophy win and it's not a huge surprise they're behaving like, well, like themselves, in fact, no real riots yet, so they've mellowed somewhat.

So what will the outcome be, stop lower leagues playing?

 

What should happen is everybody who was there advised to self iscolate for the next 2 weeks.

Keep Glasgow in full lockdown for another month

Ditch this weekend OF game and its a public heath bombscare

No fans for the OF for the foreseable future at games until Covid is eredicated

Statement from DCC Malcolm Graham on football fans gathering in Glasgow

Deputy Chief Constable Malcolm Graham said: “The behaviour which we saw at the weekend was disgraceful and I utterly condemn the individuals who chose to completely disregard the coronavirus regulations, putting both the wider community and our officers at risk.

“I also strongly condemn the lack of support from Rangers Football Club over the messages we repeatedly asked them to put out to persuade fans not to go out celebrating and encourage those who did gather in large numbers to return home.

“We’ve been planning for the conclusion of the football season for some time since the league was allowed to resume and the sport is in a very privileged position given the restrictions seen across the country for almost a year.

“It was very clear through the lack of messaging that Rangers did not take seriously their responsibilities in terms of seeking to persuade their fans to celebrate safely and responsibly.

“I commend the officers who delivered a policing operation which was entirely consistent with our approach throughout this pandemic to maintain public safety and minimise disorder, disruption and damage to property.

“They did this faced with considerable danger, all of which was completely unnecessary and avoidable.

“Where large numbers of people gather at an unplanned event such as this we use established crowd control measures to ensure we are keeping the public safe and manage those who are refusing to disperse.

“We will work with football clubs, local authorities and the Scottish Government to ensure we do everything we can to persuade people that none of these scenes can be repeated as the football season continues.”

They were shut down.  In 2012. 
 

Edit:  You did say The Rangers so you are correct.  They need shut down too. 
 

As an aside I can’t remember 55 or 54 or 53, etc being so big even though they were record breaking numbers.  They won’t admit it of course but this is much more to do with stopping 10 than getting 55.   The constant harping on about 55 is just them trolling the people who believe they are a new club.

Quite a weak statement. Surely by now they know what they are dealing with with respect to either Glasgow club and their fan bases and any policy would be proactive, around Ibrox and the city centre, rather than reactionary with any assistance from Ibrox seen as possible but not to be relied upon. The reference to the club's inaction just seems naive like a sketch from Scot Squad.

The Newco statement is pure unadulterated crap. Sweepity sweep.

Scottish football went backwards another 20 years yesterday. Who in their right mind running a national sport (SFA) wants us back with a two team duopoly AGAIN.  Help the other teams in Scotland and fix this mess. Please. Get the officiating right. Get the TV contract fixed. Get the money evenly spread. But more importantly get yourselves corrected and do your jobs right.

So.....a couple of things stand out:

Secondly, “refusing to disperse”.... is this not a breach of our current lockdown conditions?  If so, I’d be assuming that the police are not finished here, I suspect video/face recognition procedures will be currently ongoing and a few doors will be knocked in the early hours of this week......this may throw the SG a lifeline as lockdown breach protocols take place....if not then questions need asked about what the SG are actually going to do seeing as a “yellow card” has already been issued.

Thanks for posting this.  Question is, are our esteemed football authorities going to responded with penalties?  The answer of course is no because of some utter scam which we supported which states apparently that clubs are not responsible for the actions of their supporters.

 

That why hibs supporters were able to riot at hampden park with impunity.  Can't help thinking though that if Hearts supporters behaved disgracefully they would find a way to punish us.

The Scottish Government ought to apply a three-pronged approach once they've notified the SFA and SPFL that failure to comply would result in all football being shut down completely until further notice.

 

Today, they should announce that a 25 point deduction will be applied to Rangers* as a result of their fans' recent behaviour.

 

Three days later, once the implications have hit home for both Rangers* and Celtic, Celtic should have a 10 point deduction applied for their fans behaviour.

 

A further three days later, once the ramifications have had time to concentrate minds, the current Premiership season should be null and voided, with the threat that next season may be subject to cancellation too. 

 

This way, a large swathe of fans who think they're immune from regulations designed to keep us all safe will have a meaningful punishment applied for once in their lives.

 

Carlsberg don't do punishments that fit the crime, but if they did.....

If hibs fans can wreck Hampden and their actions be described at over exuberance and Celtic fans can gather at Hampden and then at Parkhead whilst throwing barriers at the police I find it hard to justify punishing Rangers cos their fans are also tits.

[EIEIO]

Police in a difficult position they chose  the light touch escort and monitor rather than crack skulls. If Scottish police were like French or Amsterdam police (remember the Timothy get a few sore heads a few seasons back?) there could have been another Manchester style riot.  Rangers board has a big responsibility in this by not speaking out before Sunday or after Saturday. Probably would not have prevented gatherings but would at least have shown they were trying to be sensible during lockdown.

Very poor on Rangers’ part not to take this seriously.  A strong statement from them wouldn’t have stopped all the morons but it would surely have stopped some of them. After all, these people believe everything their club says so it is understandable that the police tried to get them to be proactive and appeal to their fans to behave.

Because we're throwing pandemic into the mix here and their actions over the weekend can impact wider society in a way normal football nonsense doesn't.
