the gunslinger 3,366 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 What happened yesterday was almost certainly the worst case in Scottish football history. I've never heard of more than half a team being assaulted by fans anywhere in the world never mind Scotland. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearman 9 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Great statement, if we don't receive a proper response from the authorities I think Rangers next move is to ban ALL away fans from Ibrox next season for obvious reasons. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trublusince1982 243 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) Thank you to the Rangers board. That statement completely epitomises the anger and astonishment i feel today. Could honestly not agree more. This will not be tolerated. No more. From those political parties whos leadership teaches nothing but intolerance and hatred towards everything that resembles Britain to our so called football authorities who have at the least stood by and watched if not participated fully in the hatred of all things Rangers. No more sitting silently as you persecute and promote intolerance. Edited May 22, 2016 by trublusince1982 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
blueflag 378 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Best statement from within Ibrox for a long time. Proud of our board tonight. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

buster. 4,808 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 (edited) It really homes in on Petrie, his responsibilities, actions and lack of actions. Here you have the Hibs Chairman and SFA Vice Pres. who is wearing a double hat of responsibility outright refusing to call attacks on Rangers players disgraceful when given the opportunity by journalists. His attitiude and tone was of difiance. He then subsequently doesn't call or instruct anyone else in his club to call Rangers to inquire of the well-being of our players. Difiance and indifference in such circumstances from someone in authority at both Hibs and the SFA paints a very clear picture of the problem that confronts our club and support. When the people who should be actively looking to solve problems are very much part of them they should resign.

The fact is the Petrie would be the first to be demanding apologies and bans if it was our fans who had invaded after the final whistle. The man is disgusting hypocrite of the highest order. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JFK-1 1,675 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 The statement will get absolutely nowhere with HIbs if you take their fans response to it into account and so far they appear to have been humouring that fan response no matter how ludicrous. http://www.hibs.net/showthread.php?311496-New-Statement-from-The-Rangers& 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Germinal 27 Posted May 22, 2016 Share Posted May 22, 2016 Don't disagree with the sentiment, but that's a counter productive statement. The story is now Rangers v the SNP and Rangers v journalists when it should be all about Hibs and their fans. We must keep the focus on them but I don't know if that'll happen now. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
