Can't believe a game involving them or Celtic descended into sectarian chanting. Who would have thought it? Seriously, they can f*ck off. No time for them and all that shit. It can stay up there, where most of the non-OF fans also have no time for either of them. I've been up there loads of times, the songs are part of the history and should be seen as such it's a big part of who they are and how they came about, the vast majority of Rangers fans are sound and have no real hatred for Catholics but they value their heritage just as Celtic value their Irish roots. Colonialism is part of Britain’s history. Doesn’t mean we should sing about it. There is absolutely no excuse whatsoever for sectarianism in modern football.

People getting thier knickers in a twist over a friendly lol Yellowboard tradition - dates from Smithills going on a rant at the Trust because we were playing Airbus and he'd never heard of them. Rangers are the Donald Trump of football.

Have to admit I would love to see the reaction of some if it was Celtic rumoured to be coming down. Or if the rumour was St Pauli coming over for a game. Can't help but feel it might be just a bit stronger than the reaction to it possibly being Rangers. Not that I want to play either Celtic or Rangers. You beat me to it mate, if the Irish flag nonsense was anything to go by imagine the reaction if Celtic was rumoured. By the way, County, if you're reading this get Hibs down here. I have family who follow them and I've been up there on a few occasions, always a good atmosphere. I can combine a family visit and the football without having to fork out for the train to Edinburgh. Cheers, thank you.

If Rangers and Hibernian are too problematic then Linfield is also a big no.
