Tens of thousands of Hibs fans? rolleyes

Do you really think Rangers don't deserve all the criticism? They've brought and continue to bring the Scottish game of football into disrepute. They're cheats. Their fans carry sectarian hatred around and spread it around Scotland. Certainly not all but many of their fans are scumbags.

If you ask me, Scottish culture would be far better off without Rangers.

more long winded anti-Rangers waffle
I think you're a bit socially inept, which given your ever patronising tone doesn't surprise me.

I've tried several times to basically close this as a discussion, certainly from my side, but you respond with a long and tedious post opening exactly the same crap up again. You're either not picking up on it, or you're deliberately ignoring it.

Either way we've heard your opinion. More explanation is unnecessary.
You do irony very, very well.

You attempt to close discussions down all the time when they aren't going your way, they open it back up when it suits. I've lost count of how many last posts you've made over many discussions.

I'll leave it now and we'll sit back and watch all the lies and mistakes unfold even more. It's already looking bad enough.

Night.

Yes I'm sure 2 of the vehicles for imbecilic behaviour are the problem, and not the imbeciles themselves.
I know plenty of imbeciles that aren't old firm fans.

They don't hate tens of thousands of people based purely on the colour of t-shirt they wear on a Saturday afternoon though
They're all imbeciles though, and would be with or without football clubs.

First story of the new day.

That's the danger of jumping in feet first and blaiming everyone else. There's often two sides to the story.

Outside any football park is heavily covered by cameras. These claims will be easily proved or dismissed.

Obviously collusion and conspiracy by the police against the angels in blue.

DELETED: Comment made by a member who's account has been deleted.
In my opinion, it wouldn't solve the problem. You aren't deleting the imbeciles, only dispersing. The dissipated imbeciles would just cause bother somewhere else. In any case, all football clubs have a minority of idiots. The biggest clubs obviously have the largest number in their minority. See Hibs on Saturday for what can happen when you get a large number of imbeciles with any flavour of shirt come together.

It's a weird setup.

Think we'll need to give a shot to see if it works.

The interest and attendances were really low anyway, so anything is worth a try.

I hope it works.

There have been umpteen attempts at drumming up interest before.

Hopefully it's a roaring success and another hint that we would be better off playing football in June and July than December and January!

I wonder if it would be a decent idea to combine leagues 1 and 2, then split north/south. Instead of spending £xxxxx for Elgin, Peterhead and whoever else to travel to Annan various times (and vice versa) they could spend it on youth development.

...and the Rangers thread is closed again with yet another Celtic fan unable to resist a hilarious and original 'Sevco' jibe.

Part of me wants to fk the Celtic thread up but then I remember I'm better than them.

Sorry, but there are posters in both camps who post provocative shyte and are pathologically unable to let the other have the last word.

The provocative posters then run off bleating to the mods, winding them up.

Both camps in the old firm need to grow the fk up. Don't come dragging your crap in here and fking it up for everybody else.

Spot on, Docjock.

I have had to deal with three reports from people who, to be honest, I wonder how they cope in real life! For the moment, the Rangers thread will remain closed until PH decides whether to open it again or not. I'll be recommending that they close it for good as it's clear that posters can't read the rules or abide by them.

And before anyone thinks of bhing about it, I'll happily close the Celtic thread and/or this one in a heartbeat if it goes the same way.

Why dont you simply ban the posters on the rangers thread who only post on it to annoy and bait the rangers fans.
Or is that too simplistic?
