Steven Naismith, Charlie Adam, Allan Hutton, Allan Mcgregor all former rangers players never got booed, Ian black is not good enough to play for Scotland never has been and never will be especially now he is playing in the 3rd division
I don't think they is any point using reason with this one.

Chuckles Green has accused us all of being bigots and some of the The Rangers support have swallowed it hook, line and sinker.

Not that QPR has anything to do with this but, that equates to about 9k
Have you got any stats to back that up?

I'd be surprised if only 50% of their ground was available on a season ticket.

EX-rangers players, they got out, Ian Black stayed in, he will be seen as the enemy.

Look at it this way, if he was playing for Hearts this year instead, do you think he would have been bood?

the answer, as you well know, is no.

Not sure about this year as their season ticket limits changes yearly.

Last year i beleive was 9k, so this year could be 8k or 10k

so, do Hibbs fans hate every other team or just Hearts and Ranger?

I dont see that would make a difference, i cant imagine seeing England playing in st james park, and the newcastke fans booing a sunderland player, just because he is a sunderland player.

Were any of the afore mentioned players booed when they played for Rangers?

If your answer is no then your argument just turns into a massive facepalm of fail.

Where did you get this figure from?

I didn't have the heart to point that out, I'm sure he/she will have an answer for it to suit their agenda though

They never played for Scotland since the witch hunt for all things Rangers that has been going on for the last few months, so im not sure what you are getting at.

the fans at the game tonight were scotland fans, fans from clubs all over scotland, not Rangers.

Can you provide examples of situations that make you think there's been a "witch hunt"?

So all these Scotland fans from all the other clubs in Scotland have only become 'bigots' since The Rangers started up? Is that honestly your response??

Almost as bad as the answers Smeato gave when he was interviewed by Bernard Ponsonby.

ahem, theres only one agenda going on in this thread, and that is the one that sees Rangers kicked at every turn.

As for me, as i have said previous, i am not a Rangers fan, i never have been and never will, but i have had first hand experience with the bigotry on both sides that follows both rangers and celtic.

After reading some of the hatred, lies, mis-information and half truths posted here about Rangers, i felt it was only right to put forward the other side to the story, to try redress the balance somewhat from simply being a thread full of rangers haters spouting rubbish for all to see unchallenged, i felt it only right that the falsities i read were challenged in some form, rather than accepted as gospel by the unsuspecting visitor who may pass by for a look.

With that i shall bow out of this thread, as it has consumed too much of my shagging time already.

No hard feeling to anyone i deliberated with on here in the past, no doubt we shall cross paths somewhere else in the future.

Special kudos to Bhoy and timboy, well played sirs.

Ryan McGowan was also booed on to the pitch tonight, so I don't think that theory stands up to much. I'd say the fact that Black is so closely associated with Hearts is just as big a factor in him being jeered as the whole Rangers/Third Division nonsense.

There's always been a small group of Scotland fans willing to boo Scottish players simply because they don't like them in club football. It's not exactly a great way to support the team, but it's a bit of a stretch to call it anything more than that.

Are you still at it?,
You just cant help having a dig can you?

Remember only earlier today you were slating another poster for doing the same.

I think you need to remember this the next time you take the moral high ground with anyone on here.


As I told you earlier, I was talking about differing supporters taking the piss out of each other. It was the truth - something The Rangers FC support find hard to accept apparently

You're the one trying to have a dig by telling everyone about the 'wonderful' support you have. It doesn't matter if you have 100,000 turning up each week, you are an SFL 3 side and will struggle to get out of that league.

Get over it

QPR have already sold out of season tickets for the upcoming EPL season.

http://www.qpr.co.uk/tickets/season-tickets/
I shall keep these 'fans' informed during the new QPR thread, mate

I wonder why some people don't like supporters of other clubs talking about their team - my new thread will need all of the other clubs to participate.

From Peterhead to Parkhead and beyond - that's my new motto. Do you think the The Rangers FC supporters will like it

This was on SS1, truly embarrassed that bigoted "football fans" would boo their own players.

What will the folk watching in England think they are booing for?

Bloke in pub: "hey paul, why are they booing that ian Black guy"

Other bloke: Oh He plays for rangers, and all the big teams in scotland hate Rangers.

Theres no bigots in the SPL. I repeat, there is no bigots in the SPL!!!

i wonder what inventive ways this will be pinned on Rangers?
At least you are admitting that virtually all the clubs in Scotland are big teams in comparison to SFL3's finest

Ian Black was picked because of his SPL form last season at Hearts while being one of the most hated players in the SPL.

Then he makes his debut for Scotland at Easter Road, home of Hibs and people wonder why he was booed.
I didn't hear any Hibs fans booing Ryan McGowan of Hearts who was playing with the Aussies.

He was booed every time he touched the ball and when he came on as a sub

No way of getting out of that ban.
