What annoys me is that no support is asked for normal human beings.
When you have someone close to you who is gay these kind of statements become quite raw. Can't even imagine how they feel.

I just don't see it as an issue, even if you are LGBT. I've said before that my supporters club had a gay guy in it and nobody bothered. I work with numerous gay people, both male and female, and again nobody bothers.
It seems that they're trying to make an issue where one doesn't exist.
RB7 makes the point that there are currently no openly gay footballers, which is a fair point. However I couldn't tell you the sexuality of half our team, and by making a big hoo-ha about it is possibly making it harder for someone who is concerned about coming out.
I think if anyone did a vast majority wouldn't bother. Society has moved on.
I wish society had moved on - it hasn't - not even close. Try watching this http://www.bbc.co.uk/iplayer/episode/b08z2jpc/gareth-thomas-v-homophobia-hate-in-the-beautiful-game?suggid=b08z2jpc
My own experiences recently with my family proved that too. We like to believe everything is OK - is it fuck!

IMHO the balance towards equality is aimed toward minority groups be it as the post or immigrants etc.
I have grown up respecting people and faiths but too much is aimed at minorities leaving me feeling like a guilty person with my own thoughts.
I get where you are coming from and I agree we should all be allowed to air our views and not have 'support minorities' forced down our throats. But the vast majority of us aren't picked out for often savage unfair treatment. I was fairly 'blind' until a close family member 'came out' recently (never in a million years would you have guessed) and you realise that it's actually very very tough trying to move on from that in a tough working class environment. Your life turns upside down. I mistakenly thought we lived in a new world that accepted gays - we are miles from that sadly!

C***** too...Brenda will be delighted!
Try watching this mate - ask yourself where you fit it? If you do watch it ask yourself if you would take up 'Alfie's' challenge to meet in the pub at the end.

Sorry but I feel like I'm back at primary school with comments like this. That's why I'm happy we have signed up and at least tried to move into the 21st century.

I guess it is only important if you are gay a lesbian or transvestite.
Or a parent, sister or brother.

When I was a wee boy I always remember how disappointed I was to see my wee granny turn up with a bright green jumper on. I couldn't hold back and I asked her why. She pulled me aside, winked at me and said "it's a green stem that grows the beautiful orange lily son" . Class

Has anyone got theirs through the post yet? I ordered some for family members on Sunday night but nothing through in the post yet. One of the family works near Ibrox, so what would happen if they turned up today for example at the ticket office? Would they print tickets for them even if the originals were in mid post? I just cant get through to the TO at all.
They've just arrived

It's not, there are 20,000 paper tickets but the vast majority have been posted out.

I think its the perfect example, right on a plate, how our relationship stands. (1) They are basically insignificant irrelevancies to us. If we bring out an all red strip, and its tidy, we would love it. No question and not even a single thought about them. (2) they bring out a blue top (not even royal blue)..................

Anyone know anything about this chap? - The remaining shares held by MASH Holdings Limited have been purchased by Julian Wolhardt, the CEO of Dehong Capital Partners, a Hong Kong based private equity firm. Looks like it is in his private capacity, rather than via his company?
Went to Illinois University so I'm assuming he is a Yank? Could Alastair Johnston be having an influence in latest proceedings maybe?

The web site says the general sale opens on Sunday.

When Pedro Caixinha pointed out quite calmly and rationally in a press conference that Aberdeen appeared to have a rebuilding job on their hands in the summer, you'd have thought he'd molested Stewart Milne's prize ewe, such was the reaction in some quarters.

I was thinking that very same thing last night.

As for MOH, he can argue he's not been given a chance but anytime he has played he's been largely poor so it's certain he'll be moved - perhaps a makeweight in any deal for Jamie Walker.
Good shout

Get that red headed girl with the big arse doing some shoveling in typical arse half out workie jeans.
Hey! That's somebody's daughter mate. A bit of decorum please gentlemen.

I don't know if its still the same but the last time i was in the Nou Camp I thought it was run down looking - faded seats full of fag burns and stuff. I reckon its just like any structure that will look weather beaten after a while.

and I'm from a time when burds wanted skinny arses
At my age you are just happy if its where the arse should be!

According to reports this morning Alves has been offered to Galatasaray. I never really bought the story about him 'agreeing' to come to us. He might yet, but personally I don't think it will happen. We will end up with Hannaghan from Motherwell or the likes.

Baffles me why anyone would want to leave the second best team in Scotland to join the third best.
Money, and the buzz of hearing lots of fans behind you rather than rustling highland toffee papers.

[On John Gilligan stepping down] Dave King, stated: “After regime change, it was necessary to compile a board who recognised the magnitude of the challenge facing the club and who had the passion and commitment to drive the club’s agenda forward against the obstacles that faced us at that time.
“When I approached John to assist with the rebuilding exercise he unhesitatingly agreed to do so, despite the challenges this would demand of his time given his other extensive business, social and family commitments.
“After years of tireless effort, lobbying, and campaigning to turn Rangers’ fortunes around, John has taken the decision to step down knowing that much of what was required post regime change has already been achieved and that the outstanding requirements have been clearly identified by the board, who have the necessary action plans in place.
“John would now like to concentrate on business and family life, as well as simply being a fan again.
“John is one of the most passionate Rangers fans I have ever known. He brought a great deal to the boardroom table and was never slow to question decisions, or courses of action if he thought there were better options. John always put the interests of supporters first.
“On behalf of the entire board of directors and Rangers supporters everywhere, I would like to thank John for his unflinching support, wisdom and commitment. He is a true Rangers fan.”

I don't know the bloke from Adam but some say he's just what the Board needs and some say he shouldn't be within a mile of it. Who to believe? And why has he gone?
A proper died in the wool fan and a generous hearted guy. I believe an incident took place at the last OF game when he was leaving the box and things got a bit heated with a fan dishing out abuse. That may have been that last straw for him as he's no youngster any more.

Was he the boardroom mouth to media outlets, various?
No he wasn't.

No big loss.
Met him several times and really like him. Personal choice.
