W6er Posted November 14, 2023 Report Share Posted November 14, 2023 I was planning on going to this one, but not so sure now. I think I will see how we do against Livi first. 😑 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I was going to wait to see how we did against Livingston and Ross County, but decided I'd go for it. I will meet a few Rangers supporting fiends friends pre-match.

No one should tell you how you spend your money. I have had wonderful memories in the 70s, 80s and 90s at Ibrox when we have beaten them. But there has always been bigotry, sectarianism and violence against our supporters. I actually think since they were liquidated some of their supporters have become more extreme in their behaviour. My last visit I think was the Thommo last minute equaliser. Tremendous memories but the treatment received and the lack of support from the police and stewards has stopped me from going back - for now. Never say never. I really hope that you have a great time and it’s the best £32 you have ever spent as that hopefully means St Mirren get a positive result. Go buddie go!

Have I wasted thirty-two 'fecking quid'? I don't see how anyone can enjoy the "experience" away fans get at either if the big Glasgow slums. Those around have free-rein to abuse and harass, even thrown objects will be tolerated. I went to the first post-promotion game there in the Gus McPherson era and despite us getting a great result I vowed never to return. I don't see the point of paying good money to be treated like shit by these people just because they can.

northstbuddie Posted November 19, 2023 Report Share Posted November 19, 2023 It is one of the biggest shadows hanging over Scottish life - that this persistent sectarianism is not dealt with by the police and football authorities. We must ask - why is this so? I think we all have our own ideas on this. Contrast this with the action taken in Europe where it does not seem to be a problem in dealing with this cancer.

Their supporters have a sort of siege mentality. I think one could write a PhD thesis on why that is, as I think there is scope to argue it goes way beyond supposed grievances relating to their club's fortunes, both on and off the pitch. It can arguably be related to the threat posed to the United Kingdom, both here and in Ulster; their patriotism (or perhaps jingoism?) is now deeply unfashionable; and the realisation that their 'culture' is becoming more and more irrelevant. T2 summarised it quite well: "these are people who've been abandoned by their political class..." 20 hours ago, northstbuddie said: It is one of the biggest shadows hanging over Scottish life - that this persistent sectarianism is not dealt with by the police and football authorities.

I think a lot of it is exaggerated, to be honest. I also don't have a problem with people, even a very large group of people, expressing an identity, which is ultimately what both the Old Firm clubs do. They feed off one another. As long as our club remains free of it, that's all that matters to me. I have found both grounds to be very hostile, but I think they always have been. I prefer that to grounds that have no atmosphere and quite like the idea of going to into the lion's den, so to speak. I do not long for the day when angry, working class Glaswegians have been replaced by the prawn sandwich brigade, which seems to be the case with many clubs down south.

guinness Posted November 28, 2023 Report Share Posted November 28, 2023 I see they were the two most expensive tickets for away fans in the Champions League last season. I suppose at least at Ibrox you can see the whole pitch whereas Celtic Park you miss a large section in the middle. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
W6er Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 How long is it since Rangers conceded a penalty at Ibrox in the league? Interesting discussion on Jambos Kickback: https://www.hmfckickback.co.uk/index.php?/topic/202486-no-penalty-awards-against-the-rangers-at-ibrox/ It would appear that they have not conceded a penalty at Ibrox since January 2022.

antrin Posted November 29, 2023 Report Share Posted November 29, 2023 From 2 or 3 weeks ago, this link exemplifies the problem: But, of course, because it was compiled initially by a Celtic fan - it MUST be false, lies, cheating… according to h uns who respond. (it should be “The Rangers”, so I kinda doubt that it was really compiled by a Shellic fan…. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
