Green Brigade at Rangers match

i agree, id like to see all of them in behind the goals in the jock stein end if anywhere. but i dont think they would need to all join the one group though i think it could work with all the groups in there together and would look great with all the group banners on show as well

 

there's that many groups now, loosing count, Should we start another the TC
brigade :icon_mrgreen:

 

It's getting a bit daft all these different groups at Parkhead. Far as I'm concerned the only groups in the stadium should be the home and the away fans. As I understand it the JB are completely non political, whereas the GB are obviously very political. I've never sat up there so can't really comment on them all being wee kids but i sit in 116 not that far away and you can hear them trying to make an atmosphere, and their banners are usually good (although at the big games the JB usually outdo them IMO eg Rapid Vienna). The problem people have with them is they're constant trying to shove the politics down our throats with the upside down flag and the rebel songs and the poppies. We need to just get back to how it was, us all going to the match with the common aim of supporting the team without any other agenda.

Supporting the team is fine as is trying to create a bit of much needed atmosphere but I don't like the way they seem to have divided the fans.

 

The reason that there seems to be loads of kids around the GB is that people move there to get some atmosphere. I have moved and sat there 3 times now and the game has been a far better experience. You get to sing teh whole game and not feel like a total tool.

As for slagging the 'We love you' song (makes it sound a bit gay), I think it is one of the best songs going. People just dont sing it, well because...... we dont sing songs at parhead anymore unless the PA plays it 1st.

I dont agree with the GB political stances, but as far as there singing goes I only wish the rest of the stadium would take a wee half of what the GB take.

 

They've started playing that St Pauli song over the tannoy as well, so the club obviously want to embrace it.

I think the club cant win with this sometimes. They try putting certain songs over the tannoy that the likes of the GB sing and are usually then accused of hijacking it to try and gain support (guity of this accusation myself at times I admit) or making a 'gay' version like u say.

Theirs not much that the stewards can do either, they are told to keep people seated for health and safety reasons that are laid down by the police, not by the club.

I've had a chat with a couple of stewards when I used to sit in 445 and they've said its not much fun for them throwing people out and telling them to sit down either, but they've no choice.

 

No chance, there's about 8 rows in each group in a very small section.

 

yeah ano atmosphere is pish now a days tbh

 

id agree, i was sitting in the north stand on sunday and people were more interested in pointing out celtics mistakes than supporting the team, apart frm certain times we were out sung by the gers

 

the GB are brill i love to hear and see them at big games but i love them even more at the league games against teams like motherwell they bring atmosphere to a some what quiet stadium

 

Rubbish mate it has been sung at almost every away game for the past couple of years and by ourselves up in 445.

Agree that it has had the baws booted out of it now though.

 

Do you think the club would allocate a decent section of the ground for a large group of people to stand and sing? I don't.

We are treated like * every week for standing and singing. We also hung our banners up every week to bring a bit of colour and spent hours during the week sewing and painting only for the banners to be ripped down come the weekend.

The club do not want a proper singing section.

Therefore all of us interested in creating an atmosphere have to work with what we've got. There are two sections in the ground where there is singing every week. Section 445 is one of them. Not the greatest view but it makes the games alot more enjoyable standing and singing with your mates. Even if you relocated yourself, it is easy to get to know everyone. People are missing out by simply coming on and complaining on the net. Do something about it and move over to 445 or 111 and stand with likeminded people.

We have to accept that not everyone wants to stand and sing, However, as has been shown, there is two good sections already on the go where people can move to if they do not want to watch the game in silence.

As for the 'group' thing. Myself and a few mates adopted the name Rude Bhoys due simply to the type of music we were into. We also felt it refelcted our opposition to racism. Poeple seem to have the misconception that we done so to try and play 'ultra' and it has seemed to divide the support in some way. This is a heap of bollox. All we care about is showing as much passion for our club and what it stands for every week.

Anybody interested in a move to 445 pm me

 

well said mate, good post

 

Confused with the other Paul67 on CQN??????? Have heard him sometimes accused of being a bit like that but not our own Paul67 who is a different kettle of fish altogether.

 

If the stewards and police were following the health and safety rule then the rangers fans should have been thrown out they stand for most of the game its no so easy to spit their venom when they are seated think they get confused when they sit toolong
