It's genuinely got to the point where I can't tell which one's real and which one's the parody.

 

[insert new club punchline here.]

 

ETA - Seems it is real: http://club1872.co.uk/news/club-1872-statement-on-neil-lennon/

 

"Instead we have seen several media commentators make jokes about Lennon’s conduct. It is only because of the good sense of our supporters that they are in a position to do so."

 

Not running on the pitch and trying to lamp Lennon passes for good sense these days apparently. :lol:

Revised version.

Our club are shite; the team are weak as f**k; we got beat off of Hibs (again); we're fukkin permaragin' because the Laptop Loyal convinced us we were gonna win 4-0; we managed not to smash the city up; we'd like some credit for not attacking the opposition manager; we need someone to vent our spleen at; and we'd like to take this opporchancity to tell Police Scotland and the SPFL how to do their jobs.

It's shite being a zombie.

Imagine having to cover for a violent, moronic fan base constantly by using words such as 'inciting' or 'goaded'.

 

I suppose they were goaded and incited in Manchester?

 

The sooner Sevco admit that a large proportion of their support are moronic wallpunchers that don't like it up them, the better.

Statement time.


Club 1872 would like to commend the restraint of the Rangers support following a clear attempt by Hibernian manager, Neil Lennon, to incite trouble at yesterday’s game at Ibrox.
Rangers and Club 1872 are always keen to remind our supporters of their duty to act as ambassadors for our club but that duty is not one that applies only to Rangers supporters.
Mr Lennon has previous for abusing and goading both Rangers staff and supporters. He seems completely unable to control himself at Ibrox. We can only speculate as to why. His actions in the dugout yesterday – where he made various inflammatory gestures to the supporters sitting directly behind the Hibernian dugout – were not becoming of any football manager, never mind one who likes to play the victim when things do not go his way. It is inexplicable that the fourth official chose to take no action against him at the time but, against the backdrop of possibly the worst refereeing performance ever seen at Ibrox, perhaps we should not be surprised.
Mr Lennon has been extensively quoted in the media as saying that he “didn’t make a gesture”. If that quote is accurate then he is not only irresponsible but a liar.
Had a Rangers supporter reacted to Mr Lennon’s actions yesterday then we would no doubt have been treated to further dramatic headlines about the persecution he has to suffer. Instead we have seen several media commentators make jokes about Lennon’s conduct. It is only because of the good sense of our supporters that they are in a position to do so.
Police Scotland categorised this match as high risk due to the behaviour of Hibernian supporters at the Scottish Cup Final in 2016 when Rangers players were attacked on the pitch. Neil Lennon knew that and he knew he had a responsibility to act in an appropriate manner. He shirked that responsibility and reverted to type.
We hope that Police Scotland will speak directly to Mr Lennon over the coming days and at the very least give him a warning over his future conduct at Ibrox. We also expect the SPFL to take action against Mr Lennon over his failed attempt to incite trouble.

Which Rangers players were attacked after the cup final?

Kenny Miller's dead corpse was dragged off the pitch and hung on the wall of The Harp and Castle later on the Saturday evening by spoon burning reprobates

That statement :lol: 

Fans who think they can shout and scream all sorts of abuse at a manager but when they retaliate with a wee bit of ear cupping and a "get it up ye" gesture after their team scores they have a total breakdown. Silly ****.

There was a St. Mirren supporter on Saturday that was going nuts at the police because one of our players celebrated in front of them. Pretty sure it was Tidser at the second goal. Get the impression every fanbase has these idiots.

The difference with THIS lot though is that it's more than just some wee minority, and these supporters have the actual backing of those in the boardroom. It's fucking absurd.
