glenburn bud Posted August 3, 2020 Share Posted August 3, 2020 I’ve just seen the so called match officials for this game. Ref Andrew Dallas with Douglas Ross one of the assistants. Is this a fucking wind up. 7 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm not too bothered he is the match offical as the spot light will be on him. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they agreed one was a pen which is par for Brother Dallas Jr when reffing his Govan heroes. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hear they aren't going to bother with an official to run the line, instead the Rangers players have been asked to be honest about whether it's out and pass that decision onto Dallas so he can give it or not. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think we'll see a couple of changes. Thor in for McAllister, just for physical presence, and possibly Sheron in for McGrath to activate Ultimate Shitfest mode in the middle of the park. That would properly be a 'hoping for a 0-0' formation but I'd bite yer hand off for that score, and despite Jim's big talk about being more positive, I think he was probably referring to games against the other nine sides. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
buddie06smfc Posted August 4, 2020 Author Share Posted August 4, 2020 There is no way Dallas should be anywhere near this game. You can guarantee that had a referee awarded 3 penalties incorrectly in an old firm game in the past couple years they would be nowhere near the game so soon. I think this is only our second game at Ibrox since that game 18 months ago. It’s a rotten decision, it’s akin to the days we always seemed to get Eddie Smith as referee when playing Celtic. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted August 4, 2020 Share Posted August 4, 2020 What is it with the Loving Cup ceremony people take offence to? It’s a small gesture to commemorate Rangers taking part in a benefit match following an incident in Stoke where dozens of miners lost their lives. Or is it the request to toast the reigning monarch that people get their pants twisted about? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Why is the queen being toasted with a cup remembering dead miners? And 'it was donated by the royal family' doesn't count as a reason to fucking toast them. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There were numerous Loving Cups commissioned and given to English league clubs to celebrate the coronation of the then King. Rangers were gifted one after they played in the benefit match to raise funds for the impacted families. It was the Stoke chairman’s one request that they toasted the reigning monarch which Rangers have respected ever since. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

However, the act of involving opposition chairmen and staff to participate in this creepy, almost ritualistic or cult-like ceremony is toe-curling and rubs folk up the wrong way. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In addition, if this was a club that didn't have any other creepy associations, then that might help. But it all helps add to the lodge vibe, and I suspect they know this. It's not for me. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
