Political Freedom? Not At Ibrox If You Are A Bear�..


Recommended Posts

Donââ?¬â?¢t know if anyone has noticed a ââ?¬Ë?political bannerââ?¬â?¢ that has been present at the previous two Rangers matches (Killie away, Falkirk at home)? It bears the legend ââ?¬Ë?End Bigotry Now ââ?¬â?? Donââ?¬â?¢t Vote Labourââ?¬â?¢ (or something similar). Now, not knowing the people behind the banner, I would assume that this serves two purposes, sticking 2 fingers up to Joke McConnell and the Catholic mafia that run Scottish Labour, and being somewhat tongue in cheek.

 

Anyway, it appears that Lawrence ââ?¬Ë?Larryââ?¬â?¢ McIntyre has taken offence at the banner and had it removed from the Copland Front on Sunday and has invited its owners to a meeting in his office. Now, lets take away whether you actually agree with the sentiment of the banner (I agree with it!), but is there to take offence to? It appears that Larry is quite happy to accommodate Timmy with their ââ?¬Ë?politicalââ?¬â?¢ songs and banners at Ibrox, as well as, to a lesser extent Abergreen.

 

If you will, Iââ?¬â?¢d like to digress here for a while and examine the tangled web woven by Timmyââ?¬â?¢s political stance. They happily sing ââ?¬Ë?political songsââ?¬â?¢ in support of a racist, murdering gang yet portray themselves as ââ?¬Ë?socialistsââ?¬â?¢. They campaign for a United Ireland, yet support a region of Spain who want independence from Spain (and who will use murderous tactics to gain this independence ââ?¬â?? oh wait, is there a theme developing here?). Also, to a man, theyââ?¬â?¢ll vote for a unionist party here in Scotland / UK????? They will happily fly the Cuban Flag for Castro, along side photos of the Kennedy Clan ââ?¬â?? WTF, surely not even the twisted and bitter mind of a Yahoo can support both Castro and the Kennedyââ?¬â?¢s? You bet they canââ?¬Â¦. You think this is unfathomable, well, could anyone explain how a Yahoo can fly both the flag of the Vatican and the Che Guevara flags? Old Che would be spinning in his graveââ?¬Â¦

 

Anyway, back to my point, if I can remember what it wasââ?¬Â¦. Oh, aye, what is Larryââ?¬â?¢s thinking? His boss is no lover of the Labour Party, so does the ex-cop have a hidden agenda here, or is he just a knobend? I think a bit of both. A little postscript to this ââ?¬Ë?politicalââ?¬â?¢ thread, your old mukka Cammy was ââ?¬Ë?chasedââ?¬â?¢ from Ibrox in the 80ââ?¬â?¢s for

naively, nay stupidly making a ââ?¬Ë?political statementââ?¬â?¢ in the guise of a Sex Pistols ââ?¬Ë?God Save The Queenââ?¬â?¢ t-shirt and Iââ?¬â?¢ll admit that Larry wasnââ?¬â?¢t the one who ââ?¬Ë?chasedââ?¬â?¢ meââ?¬Â¦.:admin: ;)

Whilst i do agree with Cammy on this ....... the tims are the most mixed up bunch of idiots on this planet ..... i do have to agree with gisabeer - i go to watch the football, and can do without political statements from anyone in the stadium!

I think you have missed the entire point of my post. Larry McIntyre allows VISITING fans to display political banners and sing political songs, yet a Bear dares to bring along an anti-Labour banner and faces losing his season ticket.

 

If one political banner is banned, I await for Larry's stromtroopers wading into visiting fans displaying political banners or singing political songs.

 

You either allow 'everyone' to display such banners, or you ban everyone.

yeah, Cammy makes a good point.

 

OK, political banners may not be to everyone's tastes, but you can't have one rule for some and one rule for others.

 

But we all know how two-faced and imcompetent Lawrence McIntyre is.

Rangers fans behaving themselves is all well and good but to help ensure that, surely visiting fans (particularly Aberdeen and Celtic) should also be given the same treatment instead of being allowed to sing about our disasters and dead kin?

I'm not defending McIntyre here but maybe he feels it's up to the opposing fans security officer to lay down the law to them.

 

I totally agree with you about them singing about disasters, it's sick and wrong but we know that Rangers aren't going to take a hard stance against it.

Gazza, have you been to an OF game at The Towers recently? Have you witnessed the Police intimidation of the Rangers fans? I think Frankie will correct me if I am wrong, but Rangers fans are 90% more likely to be arrested at The Towers than a Craptic fan.

 

It is up to Rangers Security to ensure that ALL fans visiting Ibrox behave and evenhandedness is essential to this. However, to Larry McIntyre, that is an alien concept. Remember Larry once publically stated that TBO cause him more problems than Craptic, Aberdeen and Hibs fans combined :ffs:
