Put your headphones on you can hear 45,000 Rangers fans telling the 800,000 Scottish people of Irish descent to go home. We could do this all day, I hate these threads.
Black players in Scotland were greeted with bananas thrown from the crowd and a barrage of 'monkey grunts', notably Mark Walters of league powers Glasgow Rangers and Paul Elliott of Glasgow Celtic. On January 2 1988, Rangers winger Mark Walters made his debut in the Old Firm derby match at Celtic Park. Rangers lost 2–0 and Walters was subjected to racist abuse from opposing Celtic fans who were caught on camera chanting like monkeys, throwing fruit, (mostly bananas) onto the pitch and dressing in monkey costumes. It was reported that Rangers fans used "implicit racism" on the same day by singing "I'd rather be a darkie than a Tim (Irish catholic)" Although Celtic slammed the perpetrators, the Scottish Football Association remained silent. According to Walters, he experienced even worse racial abuse in Edinburgh against Hearts. Following racist abuse aimed at Walters, Rangers banned some of their own season ticket holders. Glasgow Rangers captain Lorenzo Amoruso issued a public apology after a match in December 1999 for making racist comments against Borussia Dortmund striker Victor Ikpeba. In March 2003, Rangers fans were accused of racially abusing Bobo Balde and Momo Sylla. In February 2007, Jason Scotland a forward for St. Johnstone of the Scottish Football Association is abused by fans of Scottish Cup opponent Motherwell. The offenders are busted by fans around them and are reported to police and match stewards. Motherwell chairman John Boyle issues an apology on behalf of the club. In October 2009, Rangers player Maurice Edu said he was racially abused by some Rangers fans leaving from a UEFA Champions League loss to Unirea Urziceni on Twitter: "Not sure what hurt more,’ according to Edu in a Reuters interview: “The result or being racially abused by a couple of our own fans as I'm getting in my car." http://blackathlete.net/artman2/publish/Soccer_11/Stoppage_Time_World_Cup_Diary.shtml
No, it's the bigotry, the terrorism songs/banners, the general offensiveness towards us British that I object too.
I like the argument of one guy making monkey gestures and a 25 year old incident with Mark Walters But I also like numerous official UEFA investigations Which is better? There's only one way to find out........ FIGHT!!!!!
The fact that the term "scotch" is being used to describe the Scots clearly points to a WUM ! Scotch and Wry!
Evolve??? Everyone of them goes the same way- your filthy clubs fans referring to instances of Celtic doing things wrong. Leave celtic out if it. We have our problems that need a lot of work. Doesn't alter the fact RANGERS ARE BEING PUNISHED AGAIN.
