Birley Owl 1867 Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 When they start belting out Rule Britannia and God Save the Queen I'll be beaming from ear to ear. Better than hearing about our own people getting killed. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Crack pot Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 End of the day of people don't like a set of fans that chant about a terrorist organisation that killed innocent lives then I don't really blame them tbh nothing to do with religion...

If certain people at Hillsborough get their own way they might end up with all the North Stand though. Unless our demand for tickets is a lot higher than the last time we played them, I would give them the full Lepp and however many they could sell on the North, again due to SYP and SAG that won't happen. Really don't know how we used to cope with hosting many semi finals, finals and major international tournament matches, SYP and SAG would be in meltdown nowadays.

Guest Deleted member Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Growing up I always preferred Celtic. Loved the shirts, loved Charlie Nicholas. Didn't really care about the part religion played. Still don't. Still prefer Celtic. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prefer Rangers now though. Largely due to the experiences I have had with their fans by contrast to the Celtic ones. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Mr Meadows Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Make no mistake this will be proper cringeworthy 50 year old blokes, tugging themselves stupid because rangers are singing god the save queen and anti IRA songs whilst displaying union Jacks Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Londoner Posted July 12, 2017 Share Posted July 12, 2017 Always annoys me when that last pre-season game is against weaker opposition, should be testing the team and getting ready for the first game IMO ...although I'm sure Carlos knows more than I!!

latemodelchild Posted July 13, 2017 Share Posted July 13, 2017 My 10 year old still talks about the last time they came, it's one of the things that led to his love for Wednesday and football. He'd never seen the away end like that and he just loved it. He's delighted they're coming back and so am I. If others want to moan and cringe then carry on, give the match a miss and go shopping or summat. Personally I'll get down early doors and enjoy the atmosphere which should be jovial and fun. Look for the little pleasures in life, makes it worthwhile. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

OWL1969 Posted July 17, 2017 Share Posted July 17, 2017 1 hour ago, steveger said: From a Rangers forum... "There's an issue with SW as they want to give us 6k tickets for the larger stand however they feel that this will upset the SW supporters. It's to be resolved tomorrow apparently." .Which is a load of gonads IMO as we wont sell more than 10,000 for a friendly anyway...Some football fans take utter shiite The issue isn't with SW supporters, as usual it's with SYP. Can't see the problem myself, if needed you could get all in the Rangers fans into the North through the Leppings Lane end turnstiles (using both North Stand and Leppings Lane turnstiles simply a case of opening 2 gates) but there would be no problem with them entering through Penistone Road either, but (dread the thought) they would have to mix with home fans. It's just another example of SYP pooing themselves at the thought of anything untoward happening at Hillsborough. If it was up to me I would give them both the North and the Leppings and wouldn't expect any problems, the only people this appears to be a problem to is SYP (and a few anti Rangers types on here).

Ps before anyone comments to the contrary, I'm not a sectarian Bigot and wouldn't mind a visit from Celtic either, I just by far prefer the more friendly blue half of Glasgow (a bit like Sheffield really) Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

IF this is indeed the case Just my opinion, so wish our club would stand up to them I'd ban em all bears and pigs. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
