Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
what do you suggest we do, start jailing people for wearing orange tops?

The best thing to do is ignore, and if you cannot do that, then point and laugh
A lot of folk missing the point. I understand the Neanderthals who will buy and wear these. It is the intelligent people promoting this that should be taken to task. The people deemed fit and proper who are opportunists and rabble rousers as long as they profit.
That's where I'm coming from on this.

The bigots in their support are, and always will be, bigots. They will be bigots no matter what colour of strip that team wears. There is very little that can be done, other than point out their bigotry.

However, the folk that really need cried out are those that pander to the bigotry, those that justify the bigotry, and the orange strip is a blatant act at continuing the bigotry. I doubt Hummell thought about this when they created the orange strip, so making them aware of what they have done is fair enough.

The ‘sash’ one looks more like a packet of Embassy Regal fags.

Knew it rang a bell with me. That was the brand my dad smoked.

A bit like Rangers, he died without making it to 55 :nono:

How did the Huns play last night? I'm imagining them being full of energy and chasing down everything to the point that they'll burn out after about 5 games.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deepsignificance of sevco's decision to order an orange top.

If this was merely about colour we could never be a patch on that mob :

No you didn't. And you don't. And the socks reference -- that's a nice wee straw man you managed to demolish with aplomb. Well done you. Their socks represent the colours of the Burgh of Govan -- it was moronic huns themselves who claimed it was to signify "up tae wur knees". Any Celtic fan who believed that nonsense wouldn't have the sense to write a letter. To whom would they write it anyway? Just asking.
To whoever made the socks. Same as this 'letter'.

There's plenty on this thread who have called it out.

And just who is applying the association here then - the huns or the inhabitants of this thread.

How the feck do you know what I think and do not think. Arrogant drivel, as per.
So the frequent chorus of Billy Boys is just a coincidence :rubeyes:

RANGERS has been informed that the SPFL Board has refused our request for an independent investigation into the circumstances surrounding the position and disclosure by its chairman, Murdoch MacLennan, of his appointment to the position of non-executive chairman at Dublin-based Independent News and Media (INM).

It is common knowledge that INM and Celtic FC share two significant shareholders in Mr Dermot Desmond and Mr Denis O’Brien. Mr Desmond and Mr O’Brien each have the ability to appoint directors to the Board of INM. These directors are described in INM’s annual report and accounts as not being independent.

It is also clear that, as chairman of a company in the difficult position that INM finds itself, Mr MacLennan will be required to review evidence and materials relating to INM’s dealings with its shareholders, including Mr Desmond and Mr O’Brien. Has Mr MacLennan notified the SPFL chief executive of this conflict? If the chief executive was notified, as he should have been, can he confirm why he did not notify the SPFL Board of this interest?

It is surprising that Mr MacLennan does not recognise and acknowledge that there is clear scope for conflict of interest between the duties owed by him to the SPFL and its shareholders and the duties he now owes to INM and Mr Desmond and Mr O’Brien as INM shareholders. Under the present circumstances no SPFL club can be sure of being properly served.

Our concerns are heightened by the fact that Mr MacLennan has yet to offer an explanation for the very serious public allegations that he used highly inappropriate language when speaking about Rangers while working in the newspaper industry.

In the interests of proper governance, transparency and integrity the SPFL should have agreed to an independent investigation of this extremely serious matter and should not have refused to answer all questions and address the genuine concerns put to them in a formal letter by Rangers.

Now, however, and because there is no route of appeal against this decision, Rangers is left with no alternative but to call for Mr MacLennan to stand down as SPFL chairman. Apart from this being the correct course of action under the circumstances, it would also be the honourable thing to do.

Rangers believes that Mr MacLennan cannot be considered fit and proper to continue in his role as SPFL chairman as he is now obliged to recuse himself from meetings and decision-making processes which could impact on member clubs. The SPFL needs a chairman that can openly participate in all meetings.
