BEARGER 1,912 Posted Sunday at 16:54 Share Posted Sunday at 16:54 I just do not accept this nonsense/lies from the board. Do they not scrutinise these things? Is there no conversation between club and UB? Rangers have condemned fans for unfurling an "unacceptable" banner appearing to show former manager Graeme Souness holding a gun during Saturday's Scottish Premiership game against city rivals Celtic. The tifo display was shown as the players emerged from the Ibrox tunnel before Sunday's 1-1 draw. Rangers have also condemned the actions of a supporter who threw a glass bottle on to the pitch during the Old Firm derby. Objects landed near Celtic goalkeeper Viljami Sinisalo, with Rangers substitute Neraysho Kasanwirjo, who had been warming up nearby, entering the pitch to remove the bottle. It was the first time Celtic fans have been able to attend an Old Firm derby at Ibrox since January 2023 after an agreement was reached to resolve a dispute over ticket allocations. "Rangers Football Club condemns the actions of the individual who threw a bottle during today's match," a Rangers spokesman said. "This behaviour has no place at our stadium. Steps have already been taken to identify the person responsible and the club will take the strongest possible action once their identity is confirmed. "We also acknowledge that the tifo displayed prior to kick-off crossed a line and was unacceptable. Our approach to supporter displays has always been built on trust, with the responsibility placed on groups to exercise good judgement. "We will reflect on how these displays are managed and engage with supporter groups to ensure the right balance of trust, responsibility and oversight is maintained moving forward. "Rangers is proud of its passionate fanbase and we all share a duty to protect the standards and reputation of our club." A Police Scotland spokesperson told BBC Scotland: "We are aware of the banner and enquiries are ongoing." Any potential charges brought against Rangers by the Scottish Professional Football League could depend on whether the incidents are included in the match delegate's report. https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/articles/c98gz89n75po 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ready1314 120 Posted Sunday at 17:11 Share Posted Sunday at 17:11 We have a boardroom of shitebags and its been that way for years. The only time you ever hear from them is to criticise our own fans. Our team gets pelted with all kinds of missiles every time we play at that dump , the whole team runs a gauntlet of hate while the police sit back and do nothing and the clowns on our board have never said a single word in our defence. 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Popular Post Scott7 6,774 Posted Sunday at 17:17 Popular Post Share Posted Sunday at 17:17 Change the venue to celtic park, the face to lennon’s, the weapon to an Armalite and the text to “Orange scum” and it will still be ok? We made plenty of noise about the hanging effigies and their Flags of War banner. 5 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing religious about today's banner. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

They have got away with far worse banners than that today many many times and the media dont want anything to do with it. This statement by the cowards on the board means this is the number one story the **** media will be running tomorrow and until a suitable punishment is handed out. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Uilleam 6,470 Posted Sunday at 17:27 Share Posted Sunday at 17:27 As I said elsewhere, the banner was offensive: offensive to rebel scum. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

But by all means change orange to loyalist, royalist, Tory, anything you like and we would have been rightly complaining. 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
