Darthter 542 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 “Traditions” are all well and good, providing they aren’t exclusive and supremacist, but so much of what happens at Ibrox is exactly that; from Britishness Days, orange strips and the employment of the famous “green straw remover” … these aren’t “traditions” as much as they are fixations, unhealthy ones that damage not only the club but Scottish society as a whole. That really made me laugh....talking about fixations, yet only a few lines previous, they have this: I’ve seen the phrase tweeted by former Sevco players. By board members and candidates for the board of their Supporters Trust. Several prominent people linked to the club have used the phrase in speeches and written statements. Obviously monitoring various/multiple RFC releated media outlets/social media etc. If that's not fixated, I don't know what is!!!! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SteveC 150 Posted February 17, 2016 Share Posted February 17, 2016 Also, surely we are the people is less offensive than soldiers are we. There is no fog of confusion around the latter phrase's origins either. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
