# I truly believe
that the biggest step towards banishing bigotry from scottish football would be if people stopped jumping on everything the other side did, saying "look, they're worse than us." When both sides can admit they have a problem that needs to be dealt with, instead of constantly pointing out the other's problems, then that will be true progress. It requires objective thinking however, and that is far beyond most bigot's abilities.

# generalisations are the root of bigotry.
I was there. I went to the match, enjoyed the atmosphere. I didn't hear any bigotted songs in the stadium. If I had, I wouldn't have joined in.

I'm not sure I understand the sentence "well done on going down to england and showing up your team and country for the bigoted animals your supporters really are." it doesn't make sense.

Your reference to me as showing up my team and country by acting like a bigotted animal is indicative of a very blinkered view. I watched my team getting beaten by a better team. I was devastated. But I didn't, my dad didn't and the thousands of Rangers fans I saw after the game, didn't break windows or fight police. I walked to victoria from the stadium and didn't see any violence. I saw one police van with the sirens on.

I'm deeply ashamed to be associated through my club with what happened in manchester, no matter how few were involved and no matter what the reasons were. However, the assumption that all rangers fans are the same, when a bunch of jakey cunt neds smash up some windows, makes me just as sick. Feel free to get your opinions from the press though, instead of actually knowing anything. Prejudice requires less thinking.

# you walked to victoria..
so you must have missed the police bloke slapped about just outside the station because was told to closed it.

eye witness testimony from one of my mates..also a Rangers supporter.

this is just one of the stories I've been told by rangers supporters..most of them are not good.

# I must have missed it.
I didn't see any violence. The only incident I think I saw was the riot van turning up to fish some guy out of a canal.

I'm not excusing any of it. It's a disgrace. But don't give me that tired shite that the majority of Rangers fans go in for the bigotted stuff. The loud violent minority tarnishes the reputation of the good majority.

As for the hatred, if you could admit that a team that up until the 14th of may still had the opportunity to win 4 trophies didn't simply achieve that through luck, then I'd believe that you weren't blinded by hate. I supported celtic when they reached the uefa final, and was disappointed when they lost. I supported a scottish club as the representatives of our country in europe. Add that to the fact that I've never been religious and never been in a fight over anything and it makes your accusation look rather bigotted itself.

# good.
then we are in agreement. I hope you understand my rantiness, I'm on the raw defensive.
