Heartbroken. My brave, amazing sister sadly passed away this week aged 24. Despite her condition you can never prepare yourself for the reality 💔
She went through life with a smile & showed tremendous courage in living with the daily struggles of Cystic Fibrosis.
RIP, sis.

He’s played (and captained) Clyde in the SPFL for over 4 years. While I think there has rightly been outrage from RR fans, this is the FM of Scotland bandwagon jumping for publicity. A regular stunt.
Never thought I’d quote John Hartson but here we go:
“People are saying Aston Villa is a bigger club than Rangers.
Rangers would fit Aston Villa in their back pocket”
Apologies for the non-footballing post but tomorrow we finally get to bring our adopted son home and the happiness simply can’t be contained! It’s been a long process but one that has already proved to be worth every last minute 😊

Lawrenson was one of the most depressing, negative commentators around. He made his job sound like a chore and was dreadful to listen to. Perhaps that’s why he was let go.
Every club is to blame for Scotland losing our top ten slot.
Rangers for their pitiful UCL performance last season
Celtic for failing to win a knockout tie
Hearts for getting spanked by PAOK and in the groups last season, as well as losing to Zurich
Aberdeen for bottling…
This is why we can’t have nice things in Scottish football. Benfica spent nearly €100m this season, are ranked 20th in Europe and have never lost a home game in the Europa League.
“There for the taking”. Moron.
How many who are now sympathetic and defending the likes of Janet Godley had the same reaction when two volunteer podcasters were plastered across the front page of a national newspaper and called out for the same thing?

Yesterday morning two personalised cards arrived at her home.
One was for my anniversary, the other for her nephew’s (my son’s) birthday later next month.
Even in hospital she was thinking of other people right until the end. What a special girl 💙 so proud

At least if the Titanic was built in Scotland under the SNP we wouldn’t have to make that choice as the fucker would never have been finished!
We’ve had full stadiums calling two managers and a kit man “orange bastards” and I can almost guarantee Michael never once went after Celtic on the issue.

@RangersFC
why are you not talking about this problem? You are perhaps better placed than any other to start to tackle this issue. Your silence undermines any other good work you try to do. The time has come for the club to lead, looking the other way simply can’t be an option.
The fuckwits who posted the original videos have now deleted their tweets after becoming aware of their own idiocy.
Meanwhile politicians, cabinet ministers and the police pile on 🤦♂️
Scotland. Dear me.
I mean if we want to ignore context.
Lennon dragged a treble-winning team to their current state. Gerrard inherited a team that lost to Progres Niederkorn and finished 3rd in the league with a much, much smaller budget.

Tub-thumping, public shaming of football fans during supposed covid broadcast and even in Parliament.

@NicolaSturgeon
Said it at the time - I’ve never seen such a group of horrible winners in my years of following Rangers. They deserve every ounce of what’s to come this season.
Celtic score offside goal today, Rangers concede offside goal.
Last weekend Livi were denied a pen at 0-0.
Remind me how a conspiracy works? Moonhowlers.
Huge credit to Gio. Slated him after Parkhead defeat (and rightly so) but to go to Dortmund, set up like that and press them high in their own back yard and dish out that result, fair play 👏 Jack makes a huge difference & Alfie is irreplaceable in our team
Here’s the thing:
Had the Daily Record (or any MSM) paid the fee & became a media partner, would Rangers be even remotely accountable for the tweets of any of their journos?
Of course not. So the attempts of Stewart, Sweeney et al to link the club simply reveal the real motive
Someone posted the humiliating 5-0 defeat to Celtic on here the other day to display how far we’ve come in less than 3 years.
That gap was underpinned by a huge financial disadvantage that, frankly, gift-wrapped 10-in-a-row for them.
Summary to follow....
SNP campaigning on a message of “do you really want to leave our NHS in the hands of Boris Johnson”.
1) it’s devolved
2) Boris is spending more on the English NHS than the SNP are committing to ours
🤡
Amazed that from a PR point of view Celtic thought it was a good idea to sit their new manager down in front of the biggest loonballs and moonhowlers out there & subject him to the type of fuckwittery that merits a tinfoil hat. What a red neck.
Michael Stewart epitomises the current culture amongst the Scottish commentariat. It’s acceptable - no, in fact it’s encouraged - to target a football club and its supporters and turn a blind eye to everything else, even rife sectarianism and bigotry within his own industry.
Delighted for Dessers. A guy who was ironically cheered / booed off the park and who now has the support singing his name.
Shouldn’t underestimate the human impact of the initial reaction and yet he kept smiling, plugged away and has played his way into form.
Mind the time she lied on tele about prioritising covid recovery? We now have a government actively detailing and planning on a referendum, again.
Drug deaths, eduction, healthcare, can wait.
Apart from the fact it completely devalues the rivalry, makes a mockery of the ‘brand’, we’re jumping into bed with a club who won’t say our name, acknowledge our existence and peddle the Glasgow Derby line.
Whoever floated this idea within the club is very, very out of touch
Good to see the club taking a strong stance. They must lead this process, there will be more arrests to follow and it begs the question now of what the club and authorities do when large numbers are doing something similar in the stadium?
Compare this reaction from
@HumzaYousaf
to 2021.
This year “overwhelming majority behave well”, “some level of disorder”.
Rangers fans: “disgraceful”, “thuggery”, “violence”, “hatred”.
So transparent. We see you.

Why would a new derby, by his own description, have global status or be subject to the allocation of a previous unrelated game? Tied up in their own Sevco knots.

Genuinely chuffed for the fans who travelled, had a great time and witnessed a proud performance from the team.
But the glaring double standards and utter hypocrisy from
@NicolaSturgeon
is embarrassing even by her standards. No comment on gatherings, violence or sectarianism.
Been lots of talk of Yilmaz being sold and going back to Turkey but personally I think he’s been excellent since coming back in.
Doesn’t have Borna’s crossing but he’s quick, positive, goes forward and gives the team and energy and extra route out from the back.
Morelos is 2nd top scorer in the league having played fewer minutes than the top scorer. He has 14 goals in Europe and is top scorer in the EL group stages. Works away from his family for extended periods of time and does charity work at home.
What a waster.
The more I see it the more I absolutely love that Ajer no-look backpass while being pumped 3-1. Ducked out of the way of Alfie’s goal & missed the header for Roofe‘s. He’s a joke figure.
"Loving it! I always do. Football is the greatest gift that anybody has ever gave me.
"A club this size on nights like this, it's very memorable."
It's easy to see how much it means for Scott Arfield to represent Rangers ❤️💙

Forgive me but it seems unlikely that Steven Gerrard would share a position on our transfer target list alongside giants like Bilel Mohsni and Nicky Clark in 2013.

The false equivalence that has been thrown around the last week or so on here is so disheartening! Some journalists and a comedian do not counter balance a club and it’s supporters who have a huge influence on Scottish society.

I must say, my first thought upon my team winning a league title has never been to cycle to Parkhead, piss on their gates or break into their stadium. They’re a different breed.
I’ve said repeatedly, clubs who can’t sell 50% for the semi-finals should be capped for the final.
2 reasons: 1) it would encourage more fans to attend the semi-final & make it a better spectacle, 2) they don’t deserve it
Watching that tribute, choking up at the passing of a man I’ve never met. But that’s what Walter meant to us all. He was a grandfather, a family member who gave us some of the happiest and most joyous memories of our childhoods and our lives. He was Rangers.
Amazing to note covid is so advanced it can discriminate between domestic and international football fans.
Note the tone of Government reply to Stewart Robertson when Rangers were trying to safely allow regulated gatherings to actually reduce mass gatherings outside
