RandomGuy. Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 I genuinely don't understand the need to make a statement after every incident that happens. It's completely childish. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Dons_1988 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 The genuinely sad thing is these are probably people who spent 90 minutes calling him a ****** and shouting obscenities that are now so offended they have to release a statement patting themselves on the back for not assaulting him.

TheCelt67 Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Seems there's also a petition with over four thousand signatures demanding the SFA put an end to "anti rangers refereeing" So much for 'but we move on' talk. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

cyderspaceman Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 Well done Hibs. (grrr) Heard the result on the radio yesterday while travelling through Brexitland. Have just now read this thread (lovely) and will now head over to RM for some more laffs. I really hope the rest of the season lives up to its start. eta Been to RM, what a shambles. They really are sad, angry, thick, diddy twats. The ref beat them, you know. Hell slap it into them, as the saying goes. OK Hearts, you're up next. You must try to outdo your rivals. Give us more lolz. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

DrewDon Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 This couldn't have gone much better, really. Hibs won the game, replicating the Scottish Cup Final scoreline. Rangers reduced to ten men, with post-match complaints of a refereeing conspiracy and a petition started. Glorious meltdowns AOTS on Rangers fans' forums. Bizarre but utterly hilarious statement, including references to "goading" and the aforementioned day at Hampden. Impressive stuff. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

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. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Worktheshaft Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 "He's nothing but a stereotypical clatty dirty ****** b*****d .. he was born and raised in the despicable cult of the Catholic church and surrounded by the political garbage of republicanism he is filled with hatred and bitterness because of it....he will die a bitter ugly vile b*****d and I for one will raise a cheer and have a beer in celebration of this animals death....we will still be British this country will still be Protestant as will NI and we will still be Rangers and this animal knows it... f**k him ..." - From Rangers Media. This is why we hate you. But aye cupping your ears and telling folk who have been spewing sectarian shite at you to get it right fucking up you is worse apparently. ****, have a word with yourselfs.

HibsFan Posted August 13, 2017 Share Posted August 13, 2017 I genuinely didn't think it could live up to the hype, and yet Rangers have managed to completely self-destruct over us once again. Ever since we didn't let Scott Allan go to them, we've had them on fucking strings. Long may it continue. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
