None of this is fictional, but the reality, piled on top of itself in close quarters, as it is for Palestinians, is brutal and clear.
Moved to tears by

words that describe eloquently the death journey that Israel relentlessly imposed on Palestinians in Gaza.

In a total bubble - they don't care how they look, how they make the club look, about people's families, or the fact that off the pitch, most Rangers players and staff were pretty fond of Tommy Burns. Really are cretins.

Nah, this is reductionist. Plenty of Celtic fans scored points of the Kamara incident, acting like he deserved it because of the club he played for. Similarly, most Rangers fans are calling this out.

To further this, if you boo our players taking the knee, you are explicitly:
- abusing our captain
- abusing Goldson
- abusing Balogun
- abusing Bassey
- abusing Kamara (and taking Kudela's racist side)
- abusing Sakala
- abusing Defoe
- abusing Alfie
(1/2)
If you are someone who intends to boo players taking a knee on Saturday, you are booing Kamara, you are booing Goldson, you are booing the entire Rangers squad.
If that's your intention, give your ticket to someone who will actually support the team the entire time.

The Old Firm is the greatest rivalry in Eurooe I think, but the level of racism, bigotry, and bile from all directions is a real stain on this country.

given how strongly Catholic Poland is. I don't know and don't care what Zukowski is, but for as long as he's with us, I can point to the institution of Rangers welcoming Poles and that gives me hope for bringing the boy up the club deck some day
