That song is ironic, something that obviously would go over the head of any Rangers fan. We've pretty much stopped singing it anyway.

Rangers fans still sing an array of bigoted songs, and a section of them like smashing up cars, stamping on the head of policemens and losing out in fights with german shepards.

Yeah, because the SFL season is over!

Supporting Partick Thistle is a job

Even the most desperate asylum seekers would rather go back to their country of origin and get battered than take on that 'job'

But I doubt you have many friends anyway, if you call them 'scum', although it could just be another case of diddyism and lies that plague these boards.

The highs and lows of being a Thistle fan, is much more appealing than hanging around with the sort of people that went to Manchester. I don't enjoy going to games where there is a threat of danger, as I imagine my fighting skills are lousy.

I'm a student, and am off out to my part time job in half an hour.

I like that you put a laughing smiley at the end of your "jokes", acknowledging nobody else will do the same.

Ironic or not, it's bigoted. That sort of excuse is the laughable crap that OF fans come out with, similar to "Ma great, great Grandad's pal's Mum came fae Dublin, that's why ah sing the Irish national anthem!" and "It's the Red hand of Ulster, no a Nazi salute!".

By the way, I sometimes read the letters page from Sky Sports teletext. The 'Seville counters' are well and truly out- one Rangers fan claims they had 200,000 fans there! Another thinks 150,000. Dearie me.

Since I joined the topic it has been the diddies who have felt the need to start the name calling and ridicule me. No skin off my nose but they're kidding themselves on when they say they are looking for a sensible discussion.

I also had a great time in Manchester. Me and you only though mate. The other 199,998 Rangers supporters that were there were on the rampage all day, didn't you know it?

Tell me about it.

If you believed folk on here you would think 200,000 people were rioting.

It was a great day and one I will remember forever.

Aye, that's right. I got to 10, seeing as I was using my fingers.

I suppose you were in Manchester counting every single one of them?

Seeing as the sensationalist tabloids plump for somewhere around 125,000, I'd estimate it'd be somewhere along the lines of 100,000. Which is fantastic, by the way, and obviously it wasn't all the Rangers fans rioting.

But there are scum following Rangers (not just a "tiny minority" either) and it's about time you accepted that. That's been obvious to everybody except yourselves for decades, and even after incidents like this you still can't accept it's true.

1. Winning the 2nd division, then the 1st one after another, and getting to a cup semi final that same year.

2. Calling me a pussy? Ouch, that's cold. There's a new keyboard gangster in town after my crown.

Next? Depends who you are drawn against.

As has been said and as I have stated in other posts myself trying to have a sensible debate with the OF is impossible. You are, thankfully, on a different planet. You can never compare your two clubs, supporters and conduct to others because none of the rest of us are built on bigotry and the hatred of others. Thats what makes you different and thats what make you the scum you are.

In every Ayrshire derby I have wished death and worse on k*ll*e and their fans. Okay it's only for 90 minutes and doesn't carry on after that, but hatred on a small scale is part and parcel of football.

Plus, you have no idea what 'bigot' actually means.....

I never understand why so many huns hide behind 'other' as their club. Maybe they are as secretly embarrassed by the name Rangers as the rest of Scotland is.

I thought you supported Dumbarton.

What a lot of effort you've put into this thread. Why do you bother defending these people?

There is a lot of "sweeping" going on on this thread by Rangers fans.

[SKOTSKA LAD]

UEFA say its not their place to dish out punishments for the events that took place away from the stadium. The sfa should hold an enquiry in to the riots an ensure this never happens again, this involved thousands of Rangers fans not just those arrested.
Its within SFA powers to ban Rangers from euro-comps, its the only way to get the right message across to the thugs, decent Rangers fans will just need to accept this cause if you let this go then your all tarnished and so is Scottish football.

[JUMPURS]

Think Gordon Smith will do anything???

Have the SFA even commented on the whole thing yet?

[centralparker]

I can't think of any other nation outside the UK whose fans would crack open the beer for breakfast and be openly pishing in public come lunchtime.

Our drink-sodden culture is shameful, even without the violence part.

As usual Smith and Peat seem oblivious to anything that went on in Manchester, that makes them as much part of the problem as the denials from RFC an their fans.

Great post, the problem lies beyond just Rangers fans. The UK social scene is fuelled by unhealthy, prolonged bouts of binge drinking. The "drink to get drunk" culture. However, once the inhibitions were lost the majority (not minority) of fans in Manchester did join in with the bigotted chants according to 2 Rangers fans I know who were there.
That is a Rangers problem.
