Rest in peace walter you were a legend within the Scottish game I'm sure you and Tommy burns will have a drink together in heaven condolences to all the family.

Yes Gar, Walter was a right pain in the arse for Celtic fans but he was an accomplished coach and a decent guy away from the game. HH.

I’ve just read the very sad news that former Rangers manager Walter Smith has passed away.
Walter was a Rangers legend and one of the most successful managers in Scottish football history.
In his second spell, Walter showed how good a manager he was.
Celtic had just won 3 titles in a row but Walter was successful by winning the next 3 titles and he also took the Ibrox club to a UEFA cup final in 2008.
Rest In Peace Walter. ?.

Hope this gets posted,

Nice one Buzz and anyone else that sends their thoughts.

26 Oct 2021 10:37:47
Far too young buzz, his teams broke my heart many times, rip Walter.

Walter Smith earned my respect. Softly spoken, realistic, non-sectarian. Not many of his stature around Scottish Football. He'll be missed.

Sad to hear of Walter Smiths passing RIP.

How high is Rangers and their supporters high horse.

Their songs and their actions their non actions. beggars belief always wanting a f'ing apology.

25 Oct 2021 21:38:24
Haha I wanted to know what you were talking about and put a search in for "Rangers demand apology" and there is pages of stories with that search tag lol. I mean gong by that you would think that they are totally misunderstood or something lol
They are the club that Just keeps giving (strike that comment for charities though as though don't seem to have a charitable bone in their body)

{Ed007's Note - Aw c'mon, we're approaching Poppystock - don't forget the year the raised £4,837 from a "packed Ibrox". I was about £500 less than that for the foodbank last Christmas,}

The Sevco Directors and Supporters are permanently offended.
I blame Rangers FC dying for their insecurities and paranoia.
They constantly look for historical messages with the “H” word when they’re backed into a corner. Which is frequently.
Only in Scotland would the “H” word be forced to be outlawed after 50 years and become a sectarian word in Scottish law. WHY?
It was a term used by the Wolverhampton media to describe the rampaging Rangers fans in the early 1960s.
So how did it become a Sectarian word after 50 years?
Is it because we hurt their feelings.
The term is justified due to their constant hooligan behaviour over the years.
And now the Sevco fans get offended if we call them Sevco.
Most of their fans seem to still think that Sevco is the company, they are wrong.
Sevco Scotland started up a new football club and then changed it’s name to
“THE Rangers Football Club”
After the name was changed, the new club started up a company as a separate entity.
So why are people being criticised and threatened for telling the TRUTH?

26 Oct 2021 07:58:49
Is this not because the st mirren chairman said something accurate, sorry a mean derogatory about them ?.

{Ed001's Note - you mean wishing people dead and injured is something you condone Mally? Because that is what he actually did. It is quite sad that people take supporting a different team playing a game so far.}

26 Oct 2021 09:21:24
Only saw the h@n reference ed, on closer look he's clearly out of order with bridge comment, but the sfa are investigating like they did with the sevco podcast and the anti Irish nega mix ?.

{Ed001's Note - ok mate, I didn't think you could have meant the bridge thing.}

26 Oct 2021 09:38:23
Cheers mate ?.

{Ed001's Note - very welcome.}

Sevconians isn't a sectarian or racist term. Its all about the context. Calling them Sevconians is a well known reference because they act like Atilas Sevconians on tour which is fine and as as Buzz said it's been used from the 60's. No court in the land can do a thing if the above context is used. If you add in a colour and a few profanities then the context changes and it is an offence. ?We don't care what the animals say what do we care for we only know that there's going to be a show and the Glasgow Celtic will be there. Whatever happened to no one likes us we don't care? They have always sang those lines.

COP26

Sevco have released the following statement

"Contrary to spurious allegations online Sevco would like to make it clear that COP26 does NOT refer to the number of policemen attacked by our supporters in George Square, Glasgow".

Shameless Sevco Decide To Ignore,
"Show Racism The Red Card"
I wonder what the majority of their players think about the blatant snub from their club.
They should be asked to explain why they were the only Premiership club not to take part in the campaign, especially when their game was live on the television.

25 Oct 2021 13:54:47
If that was any other club it would be the main story allover the media. Why would a club that was so vocal about racism towards Kamara not have it? No doubt Sevco say it will be on the top somewhere in amongst their numerous cheap sponsorships.

25 Oct 2021 14:44:06
Spot on Pud. ?.

25 Oct 2021 14:47:49
Jimmy Bell couldn't have got the memo to back the campaign.
There's your proof.

25 Oct 2021 15:10:54
Did at johnstone have it on their shirts against us? Tbh I thought the players holding up red cards before the game was a bit comical. And before anyone says it I'm not a racist, or condone racism in any way. It was just this action I found a bit silly. No offence intended.

25 Oct 2021 15:42:42
St. Johnstone, Hibs, Dundee and Sevco never backed the campaign with a logo on their shirts.
It doesn’t make it acceptable because 3 other clubs refused to wear the logo.
As Pud mentioned above, they were in uproar when Kamara was targeted 6 months ago.
Yet Sevco refused to back the campaign with a simple “show racism the red card” logo on their shirts, which would be viewed by a Live TV audience.
Shameful.
Each club should be called out and asked Why they refused to wear the logo.

25 Oct 2021 16:05:16
Maybe Sevco couldn't afford the print to go on the shirts? Lol.

25 Oct 2021 16:33:44
There was probably a conflict of interest involved, no red cards to clash with their red faces.

25 Oct 2021 18:32:09
We all know your no allowed to put a red card near sevco player.

25 Oct 2021 18:43:59
They are probably saving their money for their annual cheeze fest in November! A true celebration of their staunchness!

25 Oct 2021 19:53:04
Wait till the poppy brigade are out! Their arms farcical day raises around 5 grand from 50000 fans.

25 Oct 2021 20:26:06
Celtic FC donate £10K every year to the Poppy Scotland Appeal.
In 2017 the Sevco fans only raised an embarrassing £4,837 on their Annual Poppy Day Appeal at Ibrox.
That’s less than 10 pence per person in their 50,000 crowd.
At least it was £4,837 more than the Rangers Foundation donated after a charity game against AC. Milan.
The charity organisation was criticised by watchdog for shamefully giving all the proceeds raised to their old club Rangers FC before they entered a Liquidation process.

How many masons does it take to give rangers a penalty. give up . one.

24 Oct 2021 21:04:01
The same as it takes Not to send off a Sevco player.
