Bearman 9 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 No, this is not about that part of their History...sweep sweep..this about the other part. The games in question were the two league fixtures of season 1949-50. Rangers had knocked them out of the League Cup in the sectional ties earlier and they just couldn't take anymore. For the record...they were instructed to play the games or face expulsion. Rangers won 4-0 and were held 1-1 in those matches...the title was secured by 1 point with Hibernian the runners-up....Those with the History finished in a commendable 5th place just two points behind East Fife. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,494 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 My last game before immigrating to Holland was the 1980 cup final. While I am now totally proud of our support there was a large number that day that I have no respect for. That was the bottle throwers. The chance that they would hit a Celtic hooligan( Not that that would have justified it) on the field was zero so what they were doing was bombarding their own support with bottles. I was lucky as I could get behind a stanchion but many bears were taken away with head wounds. One of the worst experiences I have had at a football match. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MacK1950 2,226 Posted April 11, 2016 Share Posted April 11, 2016 Seen the same thing happen at a few games at Ibrox in the old Copeland when it was standing terraces and not only against the scum,this justifies booze ban in stadiums. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
