Probably because of all the criticisms one could level at her this one is way down the list. Are you going to blame her for sectarianism next or perhaps not taking personal charge of day to day policing actions in Glasgow?

Their fans are utter pond life. The dregs of society. If they lose, they riot. If they win, they riot. The football is incidental with that lot. The real reason for scenes like yesterday is that they are ****ing scum.

Not looking for an argument and definitely not defending that shower but what you are saying is wrong. Yes they do have some elements within there support that are genuine scum of the earth but to brand their fans as pond life is an slur on many of their good law abiding supporters. As I said in an earlier post all clubs have there problem supporters but some more than others... but don't brand all supporter with the same iron.

The original post was to highlight the pyrotechnic display the Union Bears organised on Friday, as far as I'm aware there was no violence on the aftermath of that event, what happened yesterday was nothing short of a complete embarrassment. 

3 Cup Final weekends with Hearts, no incidents.

Thankfully that doesn't apply to me, I know where your coming from and the sooner they realise that Rangers fans don't give one ounce of compassion for the HMFC then they may change their views and opinions. 

 

It has to be said though on this very day some time ago the Gers fans gave the victorious Hearts team and our fans a round of applause for our achievement. 😇

As soon as those thousands of impeccably behaved fans decided to congregate for a celebration they broke the law and endangered others.

large numbers of people and inadequate disposal options and it’s going to happen unfortunately

My wife was just commenting on the disruption caused by the Rangers supporters ... said it looks like there has been a riot! I then said there were thousands of people on the street but the only ones that are news worthy are the few hundred causing trouble... I would say that is broadly that fact. To be honest people not causing trouble are not news worthy so focus on the trouble makers and give the impression that they were all like that. Again not condoning what has taken place but not everyone was out there causing trouble the fact that some twenty people were arrested sort of points to that fact.

99% of those scum were born and bred in Scotland. Our responsibility and our embarrassment. 

Your shame is you can't see nor admit it. 

They were always going to do this, everyone knew it, but Police (West of Scotland) Scotland made absolutely no attempt to do anything about it. In fact, given the police I've seen when I used to go through to Ibrox to support Hearts, they were more than likely itching to join in. 

Sectarianism is a stain on Scotland, and the heartbeat of that stain is in the West of Scotland and Glasgow through its football team's. 

The refusal of government over the last 50 odd years to do anything about it is a disgrace. 

It's got worse, imo, since the creation of Scottish Parliament. We have seen Scottish governments bow and keel in fear of the Old Firm and their sectarianism because they don't want to alienate a large percentage of their core support base. Labour did it and now SNP do it. 

It should not and cannot be allowed to continue.

Agreed, until you tried to blame the SNP. They brought in the Offensive behaviour act to try and solve this problem. You’re also wrong when you believe that their core support is from the OF, that doesn’t explain their results in the last 14 years I’m afraid. We can but hope some sort of action will be taken because of these scumbags yesterday, the defence of whom by some Hearts fans is disgusting if not surprising.

Scotland is run to suit them. Their cheating club dies, don't worry about it, same club and keep all the trophies. In fact stay in the same league nae bother until that pesky Turnbull Hutton. Later on keep all the trophies you won while dodging social taxes, no sporting advantage. Their disgraced chairman David Murray can also keep his knighthood, no charges for tax evasion, no nothing, but we'll chase fall guy Craig Whyte on a multi million goose chase.. Murray personally bank rolled by Bank of Scotland for nearly a billion iou, including underwriting a 50m failed Rangers share issue that went straight into his club account. Lloyds takeover the toxic bank and are horrified by what they find. The newco can't secure bank debt but are allowed an annual 8 figure loss while producing the at best an opaque and creative set of accounts. No governance and oversight at all by the sfa and sfpl on this new mob as they did oldco. Likewise in Hollyrood. No stomach to confront them or sectarianism, cos you know what it's  a blue vote loser, but we'll cook up a Hate Bill to make it look like we do.

Hearts supporters justifying the scummy behaviour of Rangers fans 🤷🏻‍♂️

[kirkierobroy]

I am assured that there is a thread on Follow, Follow accusing the SNP of leaving the memorial benches in George Square deliberately so that innocent Huns would be blamed if they accidentally damaged them.

 

These scenes raise all kinds of questions about how these people ended up like this - how many times do you celebrate a single league win by trashing public amenities? Have they ever undergone any kind of education at all, for example? - but from a footballing perspective rather than a sociological one; Aberdeen and Hearts and Hibs etc have to stop aiming to come third, regarding third as an achievement and accepting the continued hegemony of two clubs that are a blight on Scottish society and culture. If the SFA and SPFL are wedged up the Old Squirm fundament and give them every advantage, overlook their outrages (like yesterday's) or just give a token fine, then the bigger clubs have to take it into their own hands. It must be possible to start beating them on the pitch. Don't accept third best. Do a Jim McLean or a Ferguson and start beating them. Change Scottish football in the best place to do it - on the pitch.

Too many are scum

 

I go back to the 76 final - my first Hearts / Rangers match and they were throwing bottles and creating carnage then.

 

Look at the abandoned match in 15 when they set about the Hearts fans and buses

 

Speak to some older Newcastle fans about Rangers and they always bring up the trouble in the Fairs Cup semi final in 1969 when the game had to be stopped

Frankly though that's a red herring, two wrongs don't make a right. I happen to think they were way out of order, broke the law en masse and completely defied common sense - you on the other hand clearly think it's all fine.
