I just watched this video on youtube

Totally disgusted so much for the rangers behaving themselves in maybe there last OF game...support these animals NEVER and im not a bad person and i hate no one but i hope they burn in hell. pmttid {Ed007's Note - Mate I have spoke to Ed001 about this earlier, we have decided not to post any links to the video, it's content is totally unacceptable, and we are usually quite liberal with links, I hope you understand, I would hate for a kid or anyone affected by any matters mocked to see it from this site.
On a personal level I will say this. Cancer is something that has no place in any 'banter' or football song. Any of the scum caught singing these songs shouldn't be locked up IMO, they should be sent to work as a volunteer in cancer ward or hospice. I would not wish my worst enemy the months/years of watching someone die from cancer, let alone wish them the disease or mock it, I have too much respect/fear of cancer to even attempt to mock it. Maybe a few hours charity work would do them a lot better than some poxy fine at court, and maybe make them think before the next time and joining in with the 'banter'. If a CFC fan started singing a song along that kind of 'theme', I guarantee me and few mates would be 'having a word', once the first couple speak up against these people, it would surprise you how quickly you get backed up by other people, the 'majority' of singers soon become the 'minority' and the minority soon back down with their rat tails between their legs. Rant over, sorry.}

Believable12 Unbelievable4

Well said ed my family has been devastated with cancer over the years and my brother has bone cancer just now and is in heavy treatment.the sooner these scum go away forever the better. we as celtic fans have changed over the last few years.not all but the vast majority have.and we dont go to the depth of vile and sicko chants that was once heard at parkhead and we are better celtic fans and a better club for it .on the other hand they have not moved forward ..good riddance rfc away and dont come back ..jc {Ed007's Note - Sorry to hear about your brother, I hope everything goes well.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Jc... First of all im sorry to hear about your brother its a horrible illness. I was fortunate to do some work for Tommy Burns when he was celtic manager and found him a top,top guy and for these morons to sing songs about him is sick!!

But... for you say Celtic fans have moved on and Rangers fans have not is not fair. Have seen the youtube clip of celtic fans singing about the ibrox disaster and cooper dying? Or the horrible racial abuse one of our players got on sunday night? Im sure you would be ashamed of those fans as i am of those fans yesterday. Or the celtic fans in my local pub that i had drank in for over 10 years until it was bought over and a certain horrible element of celtic fan started to come in, i got hounded out and ended with me being attacked on my way home from celebrating the birth of my son just before christmas. I was left in a lane unconscious for 4 hours and dread to think what would have happened if 2 people walking past didnt find me.

Im a Rangers fan who has never sung sectarian songs because i know my clubs history and we were not founded for sick crap like these people. The 4 men the started our club would be horrified.

To tar fans like me with the same brush as sickos like them is wrong. They represent a minority of our support.

Are you really telling me you would be happy to see rangers die and never goto games like at the weekend? I know i couldnt as nothing beats OF firm weekends. Ive been to 3 of them this year and they have been the best OF atmosphere ive been to in 20 years.

Sorry rant over.

BNB

Agree0 Disagree0

Dont be sorry ed. there are 2 guys doing 4 years in prison for joking about a riot in cheshire on the internet. this is a riot by any standard.

Agree0 Disagree0

Agree with a lot of what was said and sympathise, to an extent, with BNB....but...

BNB yes, we should not generlise here and tar every Rangers fan with the same brush but the team has more than a minority content here who are hell-bent in causing trouble whether it be in Europe or anywhere and a lot of that I believe is in the promoting of the whole WATP, Bill-boys etc that Rangers even as a club participated in pre say the 1990's. You may not agree with that, just my opinion.

Yes I would miss the OF games of course but also Rangers as a club have cheated for many years under David Murray and must be brought to account for their illegal doings, tax evasion etc (if proven).

I do not believe that concessions should be made for Rangers, I just cant see why?

If Rangers can get through Admin and find a way to pay all their debts then let them continue but they should be stripped of all those titles and pay all the penalties of their wrong-doing, including sanctions that UEFA may pass down.

They are bleating that a one year transfer ban is way too harsh FFS?!?! I'm sorry but that is a joke, that doesnt even come close.

Ally McCoist implicated in inciting the wish to get the private details out in the public domain for anyone who heard this case is just unbelievable.

Rangers need to cut out this horrific mentality and take all the punishment that is coming. If they can do that and survive then good luck to them but I for one wont bend over backwards just because I like old firm games?

Cheating is Cheating....!

Agree on the sick fans, both sides have these and neither is acceptable. I have said all along IRA and similar chants have NO PLACE whatsoever in Scottish Football...

Iain

Agree0 Disagree0

BNB i am sorry to hear you got attacked and i also had a we boy just before Christmas,sorry i did not mean to tar you and a lot of rangers fans with the same brush.there is an element on both sides who should just go away.but i think Celtic as a club and as a fan base have moved more than rangers to stop this sort of behaviour and that's my opinion i don't think rangers have done enough.and to be honest i do want rangers to die am fed up living in a country with this bigoted element.this is going to shock some Celtic fans and i am a life long Celtic season ticket holder the world would be a better place without Celtic or rangers when i hear chants on both side like sun about people dying of cancer then i don't want to be involved in that whatsoever and what a better place to bring my son up if there was no rangers no bigotry as i think it would go away in Scotland to a great extent jc..

Agree0 Disagree0

There are 2 policemen standing allowing these morons to cause willful damage and sing bigoted , sectarian , sick , illegal songs and take no action , say it all really about this backward sorry little country of ours . Drewzybhoy .

Agree0 Disagree0

Disgusted with some of the Rangers fans behaviour and singing on Sunday , its football and i think all of us has mates who support the opposition and joke with them after and before so why do both sides have fans that act like mindless thugs/bigots at the games ? I respect tommy burns 100% and admired him as a man and a talented footballer and hope many celtic fans felt th same for davie cooper. Ive even had a couple of pints with your manager and quietly think hes a great guy. We all need to start remembering its football and we will be back HOPEFULLY WIHOUT OUR BIGOTED FANS !

Agree0 Disagree0

Drewzybhoy - sorry mate but i can't agree there, what would you have done in their position? It's one thing to go in and arrest one or two people you catch smoking (just as an example), but if you're up against a whole crowd of people and there's just a couple of you, what you can do is pretty limited - you either make a couple of token arrests (pointless, probably wouldn't stop the damage being done or the singing, and when you take those arrested outside then everyone left inside is free to do what they want anyway), or you call for backup and draw police from other parts of the ground - public safety's ultimately more important than damage to the ground (which ideally rfc should be paying for anyway), or the singing (which i don't mean to take lightly, by the way).

In a worst case scenario, you've got to factor in the high passions of the situation and how drunk those doing the damage will probably be - if one or two nutters start fighting back the situation could escalate, to a point where it probably wasn't worth stepping in to save private property getting damaged (bear in mind if the police accidentally took a truncheon to someone not involved, a few cameraphone videos of that online and suddenly they've become even more disliked by many for virtually no gain).

The singing issue is particularly complicated: If the rfc fans get arrested there for singing an illegal song, but then one or more Celtic fans are allowed to sing an illegal song in another part of the ground (i.e. even though it was different police officers making that decision), a lot of rfc fans would probably get carried away and decide that was proof of police bias against them! Arguably, this whole scenario is an example of why making laws against such songs is ultimately a bit daft.

Plus, I've heard it said in a few places now that some of our fans damage things like the seats and the toilets at their place, but I've not heard of them being arrested for it - if any of what I'm saying's right, then that would probably be for the same reasons.

Sorry for the long-winded response, it's just from what I've seen it seems dangerous to start looking at things like this as examples of institutional favouritism.

Cheers,

Glenn {Ed007's Note - As I suggested earlier Glenn send in 25 police officers, with another 20/30 standing outside, (the toilets at CP aren't that big), start arresting people, it is their job. If things get out of hand, some of the officers outside can go in to help, while the others keep every one else out. Arrest each and every person in the toilet a police officer sees committing a crime, march them out the toilet, hand them to another officer who gives his colleague his cuffs and then takes them out of the the stadium to waiting vans, the officer can go back in to make further arrests, then it is off to London Road station, mobile phones confiscated and studied for evidence. Charges brought against the guilty ones and that is it, the police and authorities have done the job they are paid for. It is a disgraceful situation and needs addressed ASAP. There is no police leave allowed on derby day so the lack of police manpower or fear of a riot starting is just making excuses. The police are there to control the crowd, they should be doing this without exception.}

Agree0 Disagree0

If you're saying there's probably more Strathclyde Police could've done as an organisation, i think i see what you mean Ed - to be honest i never really thought of it like that.

i was trying to avoid saying the police stepping in would've caused a riot, i almost did but you're right, the notion's a bit OTT.

Then again, judging by a more recent thread it looks like the story's already moved on (talking about the police having cameras and taking action retrospectively), so maybe there's more to come from this yet... i think i was a little behind the curve here! ;)

Witnessed Rangers fans plastering a local Tesco with boycott stickers...and then went inside and bought booze! PMSL corrupt from top to is ugly ass bottom. At least it will be the last time a rangers fan will be in Mount Florida for a very, very long time :) {Ed007's Note - The Tesco protest is doing well. Tesco announced sales were down 0.00000048% and shoplifting is down 63.2%.}

The remark by the editor is disgraceful . something needs to be done over his comments {Ed007's Note - E-mail in your complaint, I will read it, laugh, show it to the other Eds, they will laugh then I will delete it. I have noted your traceable IP number BTW, 'something needs to be done over his comments' could be seen as a threat. And you living near so many famous places of worship, tut tut. See how I can easily trace your location and complain to people a lot more used to dealing with online threatening behaviour. I look forward to your complaint e-mail. Who do you think they go to? It is us editors than run the sites you plank, get a life.}

Sorry but can someone explain to me (a neutral) what the big hype was in this derby ? Honestly they have a cheek to slag Scottish football ! Bit bold aye but a honestly that was pure pish ! Compare yesterday or any other old firm game this season to that & honestly wtf !

Sorry ed lol just didnt think it lived up to the hype that was put onto it ok city go top but overall poor game

Lenny {Ed007's Note - Lenny mate, me and Moneypenny sat bored out of our mind watching it. We actually resorted to talking to each other it was that bad!!!!}

Believable6 Unbelievable1

Best bit of game was Fergie taking a flakey at Mancini . Hilarious . ...DH {Ed007's Note - I was shouting 'Chib him Fergie' at that point :-(

Agree0 Disagree0

It was a very poor game indeed. Cant beleive i watched the whole lot, suppose i was waiting for Man Utd to score in the last min. Not the best advert for the self proclaimed best league in the world!

Och well Ed 2 out of 3 this weekend aint too bad!

Evinguu {Ed007's Note - The main one worked out well mate, that's the main thing.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Yeah i suffered the Manchester derby swell. it was pony wunnit! I love match of the day because its highlights but honestly sitting through a lot of the premiership games for 90 odd minutes is hard. I would put it down to a concentration issue because I'm like sonic the hedgehog roof most of the time but I've watched every minute of every celtic game this season and i love it. Must be cos its your own team lads

Agree0 Disagree0

I thought it was'nt too bad. Not as boring as Chelsea Barca.

Surprised how easy it was for city

Celtic u19 team drew with Rangers tonight. Rangers needed to win to make it into 4th place!

The incredibly talented group of youngsters that rangers are going to build next season's team around managed to finish behind Celtic, Hearts, Hibs and Aberdeen. Celtic Considering all Aberdeen's decent u19 players are already in their first team I think thats a fairly damning indictment of Murray park and the youth policy at Rangers.

The Celtic u19 team finished 20 points ahead of Rangers in a 23 game league.

Was just reading a blog written by Alex Thomson who was at yesterday's game. This is his comments on our 'C'mon You Bhoys In Green' :~

'Do they all rehearse for that astonishing chant and response thing that goes on from one end of the ground to the other?

What’s this echo chanting thing where one end of the stadium sings a couple of lines and – with total precision – the other end sings the next two. Who organised it? How does it start? I mean, how do they know? It’s only been happening this season they tell me.

“We have rehearsals Monday and Wednesday at 7pm. Don’t be late,” twittered one green wag when I asked. Well if you’re an outsider you’d be convinced they did.

Ibrox was loud, deafeningly so and pretty much for the entire match – but yesterday’s game was every bit up with that and probably exceeded it for creativity'

Hope you all haven't missed rehearsals lol. Mrs E

Believable13 Unbelievable5

I enjoy reading his blogs.Tell a huge difference in the quality of the writing compared to the Scottish journalists.

Jungle Bhoy.

I quite like his blogs as well and can't remember the last time I read the 'opinion' of anyone on the S*n or Record..well except Roy Keane on a Sunday. What he says is gospel to me :-) Mrs E {Ed007's Note - He's a bit young for you Mrs, maybe you should be looking at Wazza, he likes mature women....allegedly.}

Hi Ed are Celtic f c ever going to report rangers thugs for there band chants and riping our ground up.Why the silence {Ed007's Note - The police are there to deal with crowds, it is not CFC problem to deal with. Did Rangers report CFC fans for destroying their toilets as well?}

Believable5 Unbelievable2

Nothing happened at the Youth game at Ibrox after the 'so called' best supporters in the world set fire to the seats.

Get yer own house in order before commenting on others!!! {Ed007's Note - I thought it was nearly set a fire? Ask your fellow Rangers fan TTG, he seems to be the self appointed fire safety officer. You Rangers fans need to get your stories straight before commenting on anything!}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed, well done for your responses to both the original post and the above response. Two wrongs don't make a right but maybe your balanced comments will show that no matter where our respective allegiencies lie, any such damage is unwarranted anywhere........... {Ed007's Note - Thanks for that. I don't get many compliments for some strange reason :-)

Agree0 Disagree0

Did killie report celtic for damage at your title party {Ed007's Note - Those pictures on Twitter were fake. The blue seats were the wrong shade of blue.}

lets see if ally wants the names of the fans who sang the songs & name the same people who trashed the toilets....

stv saying that in the next 24hours that a bidder would be put in place... if not then i think ill go to the bookies for them to go down this week.i believe if they won yesterday then they would go down in the next 48 hours as the 'old rangers' won the last old firm game.

edd... now that the sfa have put off till next week,if rangers go down before this meeting a week today what happens to a 'newco' ?

also thoughts on tonights game ?

lenny {Ed007's Note - If Rangers liquidate before the meeting then it is the current rules that will apply Lenny. I have went for 3-0 to Utd tonight mate, CFC and Real Madrid won 3-0 this weekend so I am hoping it's an omen lol}

Believable2 Unbelievable2

Ed007 must stlll be drunk from yesterday if he thinks man city wont score

Agree0 Disagree0

30 Apr 2012 18:14:52
I note the Blue Knight / Kennedy consortium and now admitting that liquidation is a possibility, something they've not admitted to before.

The only thing I disagree with is that it's a possibility, it's not, it's a racing certainty.

Ibrox staff have been briefed and told that there is only cash available to pay salaries upto the end of May. The administrators say they hope to have new owners in place by then.

You prob not put this on you go on about the damage in your toilets yesterday not saying it's right but 2 weeks ago Glasgow cup final broomland stand wrecked by Celtic fans use are not angels you's are a joke by the way a still hate Celtic always will ... Kenny bluenose

Agree0 Disagree0

Rangers are gone, Dave King called it at the very beginning of the whole saga, owe to much money, not fans fault though, Murry,Whyte and co. did all the damage, Murry surprised me but Whyte is just a del boy chancer who has hit the jackpot

NONE of our grandchildren will be septic fans!!!

I really could not imagine ANY Rangers fan supporting ******************

Your ban should give you plenty of time to go and look for a woman that would accept any man that uses such talk as banter.

It was 18 years ago today that John Collins silenced Ibrox when we were locked out of Ibrox for damaging seats at the previous game at Ipox wonder what punishment theyll get for the destruction of the toilets yesterday.
PS dosnt feel like 18 years but just seen it on an old clip on youtube
DB77

Believable2 Unbelievable0

I wonder what punishment Celtic will get for damaging the seats at Ibrox and nearly setting fire to place during the U'17 match the other week?

TTG {Ed007's Note - I'm wondering how can someone nearly set a fire? There is either a fire or there isn't. I'm nearly naked but I have shorts and a t-shirt on, is that the same idea? Why not just say you read in the paper/were told by a friend/read on FB (delete as applicable) that some bad boys set a flare off and it really upset you so much that you needed to dramatise it for effect, and after you personally have kept moaning about it since it happened and nobody is paying you any attention over it? It makes more sense that way. Keep pushing and you might even get a protest march out of it. See how I nearly didn't type that reply or nearly did post your post? Only out of the goodness of my heart and your perseverance in moaning over a trivial matter for so long mind you, and the hope you will nearly give it a rest.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Ed,do you think the TTG for his name stands for Two Tiny Gonads?

Jungle Bhoy. {Ed007's Note - I don't know mate, if our 'glory hole' hunter from last night comes back I will ask if he knows TTG from 'away games' toilets.}

Is it just me, or is anybody else wondering when STV, BBC or SKY will give some coverage to the Thai Tims...
I think there was a small article in both S.n and R.cord but nothing else
these kids should be getting more publicity as this is a feel good story,
once again my "tim paranoia" thinks because they are associated with

Afternoon ED007, just watching highlights of Moscow derby CSKA - Spartak see McGeady is playing...
commentator just said that he could be going to Sunderland any info ED007 and do we have a sell on clause...
hail hail Timalloy {Ed007's Note - There are a few teams in the EPL been watching the McGeady situation for a while (Sunderland, Villa, Bolton, Wigan and Newcastle) and I think Zenit are still interested, but I think it will be EPL for him. CFC have a 10% (15% at the very most) sell on clause on him Tim, that is on anything over the £10 million Spartak paid for him.}

Departures will determine signings but I would expect 2/3 experienced players to come in at least, Andy Johnson's representatives have said that CFC are very interested in him.}

Whilst basking in the euphoria of yesterday’s game I began feeling almost sad about the forthcoming extinction event at Ibrox (purely due to a lack of Old Firm games)

However after viewing the videos that some knuckle dragger has posted on Youtube of what can only be described as an orgy of hatred and destruction filmed in the away end toilets yesterday, enough is enough. 10 minutes of destroying the fixtures and ceiling, bigoted chanting and some truly vile songs about the late Tommy Burns as well Scott Brown’s family by a mob of at least 100 (all done right in front of Strathclyde Police) was proudly filmed and displayed by a Rangers ‘fan’.

As with their manager and Jardine, the true colours are really shining through and their scorched earth policy has obviously been engaged. Can anyone honestly watch this and still think that they will be any kind of loss or that commercial concerns are the most important thing at play here? Can anyone explain why I am supposed to feel sorry for them?

Goodbye Rangers I will be raising a glass when you cease to exist.

Well said, all this nonsense about missing OFgames should be knocked in the head, eradicate them now and forever

Agree0 Disagree0

Seen the video disgusting behaviour the best fans in the world supposedly and to video it and stick it on you tube is truly genius show the world why no one likes you with your bigoted bile

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm not condoning what these fans done, it's sick. But if you go through YouTube you will find these kind if sickos on both sides like the sickening racial abuse a rangers player got last night. And why was there a Celtic fan pictured with a gun(I know I was more likely a fake one) at parkhead yesterday? What was the significance of that?

It's these kind of weirdos that embarrass our country and it's not just OF fans, I understand Celtic get it off of hearts fans and rangers fans get it off of Aberdeen fans.

Scottish football is finished and it's not anyone clubs fault. It's the nature of our culture these days that has killed it.

BNB

Agree0 Disagree0

I posted yesterday about the usual song book from the rangers end yesterday, it was an embarassment to their club. Every song sung was hatred filled and bigoted whereas all songs sung in the celtic end were football songs, thankfully no IRA songs which have no place at CP. I have just went on to YT and seen this video and I can't believe what I've seen, well actually I can. Funnily enough, in the time it took me to watch the video it had been removed so I just hope someone has sent this on to the powers that be to show everyone why this club will not be missed. I will miss the OF games and the rivalry but a club with a yob element like this that has raised its head many times cannot prosper. I too will raise a glass in their demise as I feel they deserve all they get. Scotland's shame indeed............martyc1888 {Ed007's Note - The thing that should worry people is that the police, the people with the power to stop it, done nothing. One of the English Eds was horrified when he seen the video. I explained the same happens at the Ibrox toilets but it was the police presence and the songs they found indefensible.}

Agree0 Disagree0

I'm with you brother. I try to give them the benefit of the doubt but without fail they seem to disgust me right on cue. Get rid so our kids don't have to grow up answering the "what team do you support?" question when cornered by a gang of inbreeds. Joe

Agree0 Disagree0

The people who did this of course bring shame on themselves and club and in fact all of us who want to live in a decent society and a respectable country. If the Strathclyde force did idly stand by then Shame on them for not dealing with the incident and as their first obligation is to uphold the rule of law perhaps they should consider administration..moving on. This is a small but I agree significant number of people who to my mind at least represent the potential wife beaters, thieves and thugs which exist in every country. They just happen to be RFC fans and they happened to be in a bad mood in paradise which BTW is not their normal abode as these people are truly from the dark side. They have nothing more to do with football and decent football fans than Mother Teresa has to do with Adolf Hitler. Please do not think me an apologist for Rangers fans having witnessed first hand the violence and wickedness and having been attacked and having a number of my relatives attacked (unprovoked) by those wearing RFC colours. We do though have to look at this with a more objective eye. The greater majority of RFC fans are law abiding and decent folk and most of them took our banter and goading pretty well and supported their failing team with a degree of fortitude yesterday which is to be admired. The songs etc do not bother me personally as we have a few of our own, although by far our support was the more disciplined in this regard. We also all knew some idiots were going to trash our place before it started so why did we not take steps to prevent this happening... again no excuses for them and no apologies but maybe we could have worked a bit harder to protect our own stuff. I personally hope they come back not stronger but with more humility and decency, perhaps with a charter which reflects the inclusiveness of modern society. Then their decent fans of any newco can route out the scum on their doorstep and assist in developing a decent and respectable society here in Scotland. This will also help us in enjoying our football by giving CFC many more opportunities to give them the kind of spanking we gave them yesterday. Hail Hail. Sopot Celt

Agree0 Disagree0

Listen to all yous sados man! You are all up on your high horse over recent events in the bogs at Celtic park. I bet yous weren't so quick to comment on the Green Brigades actions during the recent U'17 match the other were they damaged seats and nearly set fire to the Broomloan front seats.

Yet again, you lot are in denial. You always seem to think it's just the Rangers fans who sing vile songs. Stop wae this holier than thou' nonsense, it's becoming pathetic!!!!!

TTG {Ed007's Note - OMG........he is still banging on about this atomic flare? Are you sure it was the GB that had it, Google Enola Gay, you might be surprised.}

Agree0 Disagree0

TTG hit the nail bang on the head. The entire country is sick of celtics 'poor us the victim' stance all the time. THe celtic support wrecked the toilets at the U17s at Ibrox and set off a flare(yet again) resulting in seats being set on fire and damaged.

You call us Scotlands shame yet do the very same things that you condemn.

you truley are Scotlands shame!!! {Ed007's Note - You need to get together with TTG as well mate, according to him there was nearly a fire and you are saying there was multiple (plural seats means plural fires). Was it a cluster flair or the already stated atomic variety? What was the attendance at Ibrox for the U-17 game? This WMD flare has surely upset a lot of 'the people'. Even enough for them to forget it was the night their club won their only trophy of the season. But that's not important is it?}

Agree0 Disagree0

TTG, I think that you’re missing the main points that I was originally making. Your club is already financially and morally bankrupt and at a time when you should be trying to make friends and influence people in the game in order just to survive you all seem hell-bent on alienating and disgusting as many people as possible with your threats and behaviour. All clubs have a lunatic element in their support but all of the other clubs aren’t relying on favours to keep them in business. As far as the bigoted chanting, personally I couldn’t care less but it’s just confirming many opinions of the RFC following and showing Scotland in a poor light to outsiders.

The 2nd point was about the police who appeared to be standing by and doing nothing whilst criminal activity was taking place right in front of them; in fact they were being goaded to take action.

Last thought for you and your pals to ponder: what do you think club legends Smith and McCoist thought about the Tommy Burns songs?

Its is shockingly obvious that Rangers fans are in fact a bit thick. Even when we try to extend some understanding objectivity and empathy with their situation and behaviour back they come with both barrels, aggressively and illogically having a go at us!! You just couldney make it up. It is I fear not their fault ; they dont get it as they are just plain stupid. CBP your wasting your time trying to educate them and so am I!Sopot Celt {Ed007's Note - It's like shooting fish in a barrel sometimes mate. Some of them can't even see I am reeling them in and just thinking of things to get their rage even worse. Although Brian has raised the bar lately, you never know, we might actually get round to actual intelligent football talk. I tell people to look at the Utd/LFC/Arsenal sites and see the stuff they talk about, sometimes on here it is like being like stuck between a nursery school fight 'He done this'.......'aye bit he done that, so there', it's bloody pathetic from grown adults IMO. Reading the same one liner posts over and over again can get a bit tedious, that is probably why I do rant a bit when a serious conversation starts, it is a rare occurrence.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Playground bully comes to mind. I am sure that Jardine and McCoist actions have stiffened the resolve of the SPL chairmen that they have been threatening and will prove to be extremely counter productive to their teams cause when the SPL meeting on sanctions eventually takes place. I should imagine that goodwill will be in short supply.

Agree0 Disagree0

You have got to love the "peeple" havent you. I cant beleive they are going on about flares, how many did they set off on Sunday. When Tommy Burns died, Walter and Ally took great honour in carrying a great man to his resting place and for once a whole city united to say goodbye to a wonderful football man. To hear scum like this singing these songs makes me sick to my stomach and it should do the same for any decent human being. Tommy was a friend to Walter and Ally and I would love to hear what they think of their great supporters singing stuff like this. I thought the Rangers fan supported their team well on Sunday, maybe need to get a few more songs about your team rather than guarding walls, saving queens and ruling the waves. On Sunday Celtic PArk was bouncing with songs supporting the team, do you think that Bocanegra, Goian,Edu Aluko really care about Derry's walls, or the quees...do me a favour. This is a great derby and we all want it to continue but now is the time to get rid of the sacum who tarnish Scottish football at every turn. Celtic have managed to eradicate political singing at Celtic Park and they now have new songs to sing and they are songs that everybody can sing. IF they continue as a club then they should be punished for the bigotry as Sundays game and the police should also be brough to task for allowing this to happen, I beleive the phrase is dereliction of duty. I think we should all be contacting the head of the police force in Glasgow to explain his officers actions.

Jackson at his best in todatys DR. His flowery use of English is bad enough to endure but pales into insignificance as he continues to report negatively and inarticulately regarding what was for many a good humoured affair, independent of the seriousness of the situation and according to reports all fans Rangers and Celtic behaved very well. His descriptions and interpretations of the creative banners was ludicrous. Here is an excerpt ... But the unfurling of a giant Four Horsemen of the Apocalypse just before kick off, surrounded by black flags and tombstones carrying touching epitaphs such as ‘Get it Up You’ and ‘Rot In Hell’?
Now that was a spectacular, withering haymaker. This was hands across the water in your hour of need, Glasgow style. And it was dripping with raw malevolence.
And so the scene was set for another hate-filled Sunday. And, as is so often the case, the players seemed to feed off the frenzy around them. What is this guy on? Report on the BL**** football match. If you want to write fantasy fiction join Alan Moores improvement classes. Sopot Celt

Believable8 Unbelievable1

As a Gers fan who was at the game I wasn't upset in any way by the banner or the black flags etc...............I took it as banter from our arch rivals............nothing more!!

Agree0 Disagree0

Mates you only have to look at the picture of the guy (Jackson) posing on the back of the today's DR like a salmon out the water. He looks like George Hamilton. (google George Hamilton. The mans tan is incredible! Not in a good way.) and you know what he is. A F@%NY! And if any of u heard the way Neil Lennon spoke about Swally in his BBC interview you will know what agenda these a**eholes have. He spoke of his respect for swally as a manager and his liking of him as a person and how he has been hung out to dry and how he genuinely feels for him because of the impossible situation he has been dropped in. But back Pages of the paper is YOU MUST BE PUNISHED. Lennon says rangers deserve to be punished. That's they're back page. Go and f@&k yourself Hugh keevins and ur s**tey newspaper. They fuel the fire for these bampots to have a go at Lennon. They asked him a question and he answered it. You would think he was shouting his odds about it. Oh and he's only saying what the whole of scottish football outside of rangers is thinking.

A wonderful, wonderful day yesterday.

Lenny got is spot on with his team selection and formation of 3 at the back and we totally dominated the game.

Was chatting with Alex Thomson of C4 outside the ground.

Absolutely ripping the p1sh out of the Rangers supporters with our songs and banners.

The Parkhead DJ playing Don't Look Back In Anger (espicially the lines about Sally) and When Will I See You Again over the tannoy as the Rangers fans left the ground.

Our bus overtaking Rangers supporters buses on the way home and waving banknotes at them.

Wee win on the bookies with the correct score.

Will remember this game as one of the most enjoyable ever.

K.

Believable11 Unbelievable1

Nothing you did yesterday or even what was going on on the park stopped us Rangers fans from partying and giving full support to our team. The Rangers fans were fantastic yesterday and nothing you did bothered us! Ha Ha! {Ed007's Note - Getting beat 3-0 by your fiercest and bitterest rivals never bothered you? Some fan you are. Bet you are a right bundle of fun at parties or even at matches, 10 mins late, moan about the line up, then 5 mins before HT to beat the queues before moaning about the food prices, have a moan about a player again and then leave 10 mins early at the end to beat the rush. That's what most fans that don't really bother are like.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Behave yourself 007 you know nothing about me - you're so petty to all of us Rangers fans when we try to come on this site - too much to say for yourself. let the fans do the talking. {Ed007's Note - I don't need or want to know you, your post says it all really. You do know what petty actually means don't you? I am only abrupt or cheeky with the idiot Rangers fans, you know, like yourself that thinks anything childish or just plain sad and pathetic is funny. So if it didn't bother you watching CFC beating your team 3-0, I think your problems in life are a lot worse than how 'petty' I am. You should maybe have given your ticket to a real Rangers fan, someone that would bother. It is not bothering that has got your club in it's current mess, but you can blame my pettiness for that as well if you want. Read your post back, I'd be embarrassed to think that never mind even consider sending it anywhere, no wonder you went down the anonymous gilfnard route, you should be mortified to show your face as a Rangers fan to say it didn't bother you. I'll let the fans do the talking when they have something constructive or original to say, and if they remember they do have a name, that helps as well. I edit and control what is posted, if you don't like it, nobody is asking you to visit or read it. And I will say anything I choose to, I just find it hard to bite my tongue (typing fingers) when dealing with grown men acting like children or idiots in general. You managed both.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Seem to have hit a nerve there. The truth hurts but don't suppose you will post this. Try to stay calm now! {Ed007's Note - What truth? Are you thick or deluded, I am undecided so if it is known already please let us all know.Two questions for you....1. Who or what 'seem' to have hit a nerve'? 2. Who or what 'but don't suppose'? Surely after this length of time you had to think of a comeback you could have done better than this effort? Surely it is you who should be trying to stay calm and contemplate what you are writing and construct it concisely, unless you are 10 it's laughable my niece of 11 has a better writing standard than you and you are on here trying to look like a smart arse? Stick to cartoons son and come back when you get fur in strange places, you will understand that last part when you reach puberty.}

If they fold we will cut our transfer budget, and prob shop in spl....
Daly
Mackay Stevens
Rudi skacel
Henrik Obama

These guys have impressed me this year

Sorry meant to type ojama, predictive text and all that jazz. I almost typed rudiment skacel too lol

Agree0 Disagree0

Skacel in his late 20s is he not? so probs not him,

Agree0 Disagree0

Players are different these days, they can play till late 30s no probs, he has Good qualities, would be an excellent player for the bench

Agree0 Disagree0

Right honestly them 4 people u just mentioned are p**h apart from mackay-steven

Skacel good for the bench? whats the point in that like? mc geouch is better by miles!!

players i heard was:
k.doyle
j.rodriquez
j.rhodes

possibly two of them in but thats all the talk atm

If you think they're p#sh then you clearly don't know much about football. Try watching them play and don't go on their FIFA 12 player rating

Sorry Bowbhoy, but Daly is rubbish. Slower than a week in the jail . We just got rid of Darryll Murphy, dont need another like him.

Joeshmo1888

Agree0 Disagree0

No offence mate but we have to be aiming higher than those guys u have mentioned. I take in the fact ur sayin if they fold and we cut our cloth accordingly and all that but I'm sure we'll have a right bash at getting into Champs League this year so I'm sure they are lookin at better quality. Mackay-stevens looks good but a winger is not what we need (Forrest, McCourt, McGeouch, McGinn) as for the rest....daly is not very mobile albeit a good scoring record this season and untried at top level. Skacel is 32 and again not very mobile but good left foot. Not celtic class. Same with ojamma. I think the boys they have been linked with look good players Rhodes and Jay Rodriguez. I can see Huddersfield wanting 5 million for Rhodes and for a League 1 player it's to much of a risk for us incase he can't cut it at our level. And again we need a wee bit of experience. I think we need to buy a quality centre half. Big chico will be ok and rogne is {Ed007's Note - Rhodes will leave Huddersfield as they won't be promoted and you won't not be far away with your price, but how the deal is set up and the best for his long term career will still be a factor. Rodriguez has been being 'chatted up' by Wigan all season and Villa are interested in him as well.}

Agree0 Disagree0

Joe
daly scores in the spl murphy doesn't, put him in the hoops for spl games and he'll get you 25+ easy
This is obviously all based on no rangers and us cutting transfer budget, of course I would prefer a better player

Ive been saying for a long time Scott Brown is pure class
this goes out to all fellow bhoys who have not been to sure about him. Take a wee thought can you imagine if that mob had actually signed him, hes a great player and captain in the same mould as roy keane only faster stronger and can take on the opp, Iam hoping that wee turd fergie doesnt realise this cos hes never replaced roy keane and i personally think brown could play in the man utd team
No probs,.,.kbarry {Ed007's Note - Mate I have argued for months backing Brown, and actually said while he was out injured to lock him in a room and watch Keane DVD's. Keane is one of my favourite players ever, I am not saying Brown is in that class but he could learn a lot from him. I don' think Brown is Man Utd class but he is one of the most under rated players in the game (as is Carrick at Utd). It is usually by people who don't understand footballing and tactics involved. Every team need a Keane type of player, even the oh so wonderful Barca. A team, of Zidanes or Messis would not be successful, it is basic football. Someone who gets in, does the dirty work that nobody notices. They break up play, have a swagger and if you want to mix it up, he's first up their and in opposition players faces. Is it any surprise our run of form coincided with Brown's return? NL knows what kind of person it takes to captain CFC, if he thinks Brown is that man I am 100% in agreement. If one of your players is hated so much by your rivals for what he does on the park, you can be rest assured he is doing his job well.}

Believable11 Unbelievable1

Thanks ed agree with you 99% but i still believe he could play for man utd, yeah carrick is a little underrated rated but not in same breathe as keano only comparison is he took keanes jersey number and i would honestly have brown in my team any day ahead of carrick, keano was one of my fave players of all time also,well that was probably 98% agreement,.,.kbarry

Agree0 Disagree0

I totally agree with you on Scott Brown, i have been a fan since he arrived at CP. The only thing that i feel held him back at times was not being allowed to go forward as much as he was at Hibs but overall i am for one a big fan and have backed him all along.

Agree0 Disagree0

I have to agree Broonie has blossomed this season. I have always been a critic of his, mainly because his passing is woeful. But this season he has been a real captain for us. I thought he was immense yesterday, and me an a couple of mates were talking about how he seems a different player from a couple of years ago. We came to the conclusion that three things have changed. The first is his operation, second is Wanyama has helped him carry the load, and third is the tragedy in his family life must have affected the young guy so much in the last few years. So well done Broonie, a captains performance yesterday.
paddybhoy

Agree0 Disagree0

Without doubt our driving force ,100% correct when Brown came back in we went from strength to strength

Agree0 Disagree0

He is mediocre at best still the weak link out of victor , joe and wee james. Not so much now but used to regard him as a dirty wee player.

Agree0 Disagree0

I love Scott Browns attitude. He fears no one . CM

Agree0 Disagree0

Brown would flourish in the EPL and he would improve. He has been held back due to his injuries and Scottish football does him no favours. So pleased Ed007 is a Carrick fan every time I sing that boys praises I get shot down in flames by the great uneducated masses! Sopot Celt {Ed007's Note - Carrick is the unsung hero of the current Utd team. Just because players don't take on 6 men and score a wonder goal every game doesn't mean they are a bad player. Every team needs a player to get in about (technical term) the opposition and break up play, it is an invaluable job which doesn't get much plaudits. Look at NL's playing style, would CFC have been as successful without him on the park battling for every ball?}

well i've been a bit of a drunken bum today but what a day it's been. Was at the game and got to say i think it ranks up there with one of the best games i've been to, the atmosphere was brilliant and the players done us proud. Ended up in O'Neills in town and it was funny as. The bouncer wasn't for letting people in with football colours on but as soon as you walked in the door it was party time, celtic songs galore, huddles, congas etc etc absolutely brilliant.
