Gers4Life 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 To be given a glowing report by one of uefa's official delegates and then be stabbed in the back is shocking, who the hell do uefa believe in this matter??? And why employ such delegates! Fuck me talk about being shafted by your own employers 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
andrew_2010 0 Posted April 14, 2011 Share Posted April 14, 2011 And surely a delegate from Northern Ireland isn't a coincidence? Someone that "knows" what all the divide is about? Why no banning for the racists in Spain? or the anti-Semites in Poland/Netherlands? why nothing about praising terrorist organisations? If other clubs were under the same scrutiny I'm sure most folk would have let it lie, but if there was any singing of "banned" songs (I wasn't at either game) surely it would have been in protest after NOT singing the "banned" songs for months with only more criticism instead of praise. I know the excuse "but everyone else is doing it" isn't great, but in this case there is NO other club (despite others with worse track records) being put in the dock over this. Praise from police officials and uefa delegates and a report from a bitter "volunteer" tim is potentially causing this countless greif. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Calgacus 8 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 The question is - was there anything offensive sung at either game? I only saw the games on TV, but I don't remember hearing TBB or anything like that. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Apparently these were the songs sung that night: 0:00 - Derry's Walls 0:00 - A moments' silence for Japan - impeccably observed by everyone 0:00 - Derry's Walls 0:00 - Rule Britannia 0:10 - Derry's Walls 0:55 - We Love You Rangers 2:30 - Super Rangers 3:15 - Glasgow Rangers Champions 5:35 - We Love You Rangers 10:50 - Build My Gallows 21:35 - Super Rangers 32:35 - Derry's Walls 41:15 - Super Rangers 45:29 - We Are The People 46:15 - Derry's Walls 48:00 - Super Rangers 51:15 - Derry's Walls 53:25 - Derry's Walls 57:15 - Rule Britannia 61:45 - Derry's Walls It was after this point when Lafferty was stretchered off and the team lost momentum. The PSV fans, who were great, were loudest and this was highlighted by the commentators in the 75th minute as the away fans could be heard singing Always Look On The Bright Side Of Life. As the so-called Subway Loyal made their exit and the stadium began to empty, there was no more singing which could be heard on the television. Surely, it would be easier to hear the alleged sectarian songs in an emptier stadium, or are the nutters the ones who leave early too? Finally: 81:50 - We Love You Rangers Thanks to Foxtrot from FF 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluedell 5,329 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 The problem may be Super Rangers. Would be glad to see it binned anyway. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Frankie 8,150 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 (edited) Super Rangers is obviously the issue but I'm not sure how UEFA can act on this (under the current directive) given it's not been proscribed previously.

Tumshie RFC 0 Posted April 15, 2011 Share Posted April 15, 2011 Totally disgraceful decision by UEFA but it isn't the first time this has happened. Remember back in 2006 we were originally found not guilty over sectarian singing in Villarreal only for it to be over turned. The organisation is a complete and utter embarrasment. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
