Is Gerrard saying that he supports this?

 

The interview is not difficult to locate, and so you can listen for yourself.   There was no ambiguity to be heard from our manager's lips, with regard to the subject gisabeer put as his title for this thread.

The gaffer spoke on thistopic in his recent interview:

https://www.itv.com/news/2021-03-09/exclusive-steven-gerrard-on-rangers-title-win-liverpool-links-and-racism-in-football

To wit:

"Gerrard also highlighted the importance of the Black Lives Matter movement and taking a knee, which has become a key feature in Scottish and English football this season.

He said a "small minority" of fans were letting down the message when it comes to anti-racism.

"It's important to everyone, especially with what's going on in the world. We will continue to give all the support we can and we will support those messages."

He added: "The hope is one day it'll be eradicated."

I agree with OP that this one will be toughest challenge so far. Over two legs Im confident. I could see a 0-0 away from home but a 1-1 would be great to get the away goal.

 

Hopefully the players have been in the sauna sweating all the beers out of them from the weekend.

Anyone of us whom I've seen today look as though they missed their sauna appointments.

Not that it'll have any effect on my love for them all!

They can't ever ban anyone again after doing nothing about Dubai. 

They shouldn't be able to, I would agree. However,  I'm afraid I have to disagee with you here as they both can and almost certainly will.  The immorality and injustice of it all doesn't enter into their thoughts, while "get Rangers and put them down" never leaves them.

I find myself reflecting on all those in the Rangers family who didn't make it to the end of this journey. The many fans and ex-players who passed away during these ten years who can't share this achievement with us. Some were prominent names, others who were extraordinary only to their own families. I hope every one of them is raising a glass wherever they are tonight.

 

It's also remarkable how many ex-players have echoed our delight over the last few hours, some of whom haven't pulled on a Rangers shirt in many decades. I find that quite touching.

Indeed so, my dad is never from my thoughts but currently he is slap-bang in the forefront. He left us when we were at the bottom. I promised him we'd be back, in amongst my other final farewells.  It is doubtful he knew anything of what I was saying, but I hope so - especially now the relief of not having falsely promised is a reality.

Very much so. That's why I came back here - to see all you on this forum who helped me through the deep, dark years celebrating as you so deserve to do.

Manly love to one and all

Not sure how much more happiness I can take.

Will be fun finding out, though!

Hi chaps,

I've been away for a couple of years.

Anything much changed? ???

Hope that I am not too early with this @Rousseau.  (I know: "one point")

Rumours are back in full swing?

 

Still no denial from any ITK posters and my own text to a couple of employees have went unanswered.

 

 

Trying to not get excited but what's life without hope ??????

I find, in life in general, that the technical term for that state is: "reality" 

Yikes. Nervy now

Yesssssss! Well done their keeper

A group of around 20-30 Croat ultras apparently causing bother - now kettled away from the ground.

Looks a mess. I see this twit-ter blames us despite it being clear who started it. Polis look weak as hell. As they did in the Wigan nonsense.

Still won’t be buying from SD so I hope other outlets have the strips on sale?

I won't be buying at all now. That horrific creature and his toxic company are still involved and getting money. Well, not from me. 

Huge disappointment. Was going to be quite a few Christmas presents sorted too. 

Wonder what Hummel think of it all... 

And Puma. 

It is a freaking mess. Ashley won and won again on the exorbitant legal costs. 

He's laughing at us, still. He's earning from us, still. 

We are not yet free from 2012 and its aftermath and won't be for the foreseeable. 

I am watching tonight, commentator Craig. Doing work admin at the same time so hoping for a serene progression towards qualification. 

Excellent stuff ?. A very good listen, cheers. 

Looking forward to hearing it later, thanks to everyone involved

Many thanks Commentator Craig. Points on me at Ibrox sometime later in the season. 

Have to drive now. 

Cheers all. WATP

Must admit I like the look of Ejaria.  Tidy on ball and creative

Agree from last week's showing. Was surprised he and Middleton didn't start after that, tbh

Ejaria has done well since coming on

I thought he looked a class above last week 

Now I am in the move.... Glancing here when I safely can.... Ah the "joys" if caring so much.. 

Thanks  for the commentary, must appreciated. 

SteveC owes Craig some ?

25 minutes in @SteveC

Thanks, my good man 

I remember saying on the match thread that I was concerned by him playing on while injured. Another thing of which we have experience.
