United and Scottish fans in general are celebrated throughout Europe, they definitely have the upper hand on the 'social poison' (the words of a Rangers fan) within Rangers Football Club.
That sound you hear is the nail's head being hit.

There seems to be the same odd Rangers defending logic at work here as there was in the McCurry thread. No-one is claiming that it is only Rangers who have troublesome fans. The fact is though, Rangers fans have proven time and time again to be theworst, as was ably demonstrated by the disgraceful aftermath of the UEFA final.

In an sad way, the Rangers related events of the past 10 days sum up perfectly why Rangers are almost universally hated by everyone but their own fans in Scotland.

Are you not embarassed to see UDA propaganda at a UEFA cup final? The Red Hand of Ulster? Good god, it's cringeworthy and nasty all at the same time. Incidentally, the same would go for Celtic/IRA, before anyone says anything.

I really wish we could get to the stage where the Old Firm would move down to England. Yes there would be less money in the SPL, but what an incredibly tight race it would be for the title. We would finally have a premier league that reflects our international image - filled with banter, high-spirited and passionate.

Not fat, bald, stupid and violent.
