    Unfortunately there are football fans of every club who think of their club as some sort of sacred, cultural entity, which lives and breathes and has a life of its own.

    Garngad the garden of God<laugh><laugh> more like compost corner. Dev's totally right Mindy each side is equally as idiotic as the other.

    The garden of God

    From Donegal and from Sligo,
    From Kerry and from County Cork,
    Irish men and Irish women
    Made the Garngad, the Garden of God.

    Where the flag of Ireland flourishes
    Where the Celtic are prayed to at night,
    Children of the Garngad,
    Are born wearing, the green & white.

    With hymns of Ireland echoing
    Of heroes who are long gone,
    It is in the Garden of God, were our children are raised
    On Celtic and Irish songs.

    People attaching as much importance to a sports club, run for profit, as people do to religion are equally misguided.

    They won't like this...

    Imran Ahmed.....

    He arrived with Charles Green, who led a consortium which purchased the club's assets following administration and liquidation.
    That asset purchase in 2012 has been the focus of a police investigation.
    Earlier this month, four men appeared in court to face charges over the alleged fraudulent acquisition of the assets.
    They were 62-year-old Mr Green and 44-year-old Craig Whyte, who had bought the club from former owner Sir David Murray in 2011 and was at the helm during its financial collapse the following year.
    Two other insolvency practitioners were also charged over the deal.
    They were David Whitehouse, 50, and Paul Clark, 51, who worked for Duff and Phelps and acted as joint administrators for Rangers during the 2012 insolvency.
    Following the court appearances, Mr Ahmad emailed the BBC to say that his legal representatives had contacted the Crown Office in a bid to ascertain if he would face any charges.
    He said he was initially prepared to return to the UK from overseas, where he has been working.
    'Safe passage'
    Mr Ahmad said: "I was promised a letter by the Crown...by close of business 4 September 2015 which would also confirm that I would not be arrested at UK border control or by Police Scotland and could attend court on the 29 September 2015 to answer the warrant petition which I wanted to fully cooperate with."
    Mr Ahmad continued: "A few days ago, the Crown reneged on their promise to provide me with a safe passage letter.
    "My legal team and I have grave concerns about a defendant in this case being able to receive a fair trial anywhere in Scotland let alone Glasgow.
    "Every social media site in Scotland has presumed all the defendants to be guilty before a trial has even taken place or for that matter before individuals have even been indicted."
    Mr Ahmad said that he had recently "received death threats by phone and online".
    He described Rangers fans as "a tribe", adding: "What the rest of the world will never understand unless they experience it first hand is that Rangers Football Club is a religion, in itself, built on centuries of religious bigotry."
    The former director also accused Police Scotland of being "an establishment institution which itself is deeply rooted and immersed in Rangers Football Club's history for well over 140 years".
    Mr Ahmad said: "I firmly believe Police Scotland have their own agenda and are deeply emotionally connected to Rangers Football Club. In my view Police Scotland have a clear conflict of interest."
    He added: "I have decided not to attend the Crown's 'invite' warrant on the 29 September 2015 and will remain overseas until the trial is over when I will return to the UK."

    I for one am glad they are boycotting the game. These abysmal gamers sit for hours completely addicted; deprived of sleep, forgetting sometimes even to eat, unwashed and neglecting even the most basic hygiene requirements.<whistle>

    They could simply add it as downloadable content. Who cares? The whole FIFA franchise is a massive rip off anyway.

    Unfortunately we live in the era of the malcontent where everyone is offended at the smallest, imagined slight. People actually think they have rights and these rights are listened to and acted upon. Aye right<laugh> Wur pure empowered by the way cuz wur oanline. The greater offended British society would speak more sense if they were on bleedin' lines.
