To be pissed off at the Rangers Fans in George’s square

This isn’t a rangers fans bashing thread (both my dad and brother are fans)

The scenes in George’s square in Glasgow are really annoying me: hundreds (maybe thousands) of fans squashed into a small area.

We’ve all had to stay home: lots of people have had different challenges or lost loved ones. But these fannies are out there spreading the Covid just because a fucking football team won something!

You knew it as bound to happen once football was allowed to take place..
The pack, the disregard for rules and no doubt a sea of litter and shit afterwards.

There's other threads about this

dementedpixie · 07/03/2021 22:12

Although one of them is in Scotsnet

Why weren't the police doing more to break it up? You can get fined for going for a walk on your own outside your local area, but this is fine?

dementedpixie · 07/03/2021 22:13

Probably not enough police to deal with the sheer number of people that were there

ParkheadParadise · 07/03/2021 22:14

My neighbours are having a party, don't know why they didn't invite me 😜😜

It's the bloody fireworks that have been going off all day that is pissing me off.

Lolastarsandstripe · 07/03/2021 22:14

@dementedpixie I’ve not noticed any! Is there a Scottish version is mumsnet!

Didn’t something very similar happen last year?
Football fans gathering to celebrate despite lockdown? Ignoring the efforts of police? Sea of rubbish afterwards?
Can’t remember where it happened in the UK.

Lolastarsandstripe · 07/03/2021 22:15

@ParkheadParadise can’t think why they didn’t invite you!!! Maybe you should play some fratellis just to get yourself in the party mood

Coventry and Liverpool, June 2020.
Same old, same old.

There is a Scotsnet topic

ParkheadParadise · 07/03/2021 22:21

@Lolastarsandstripe
I've got a playlist I could have shared with the partygoers. It would have really got the party going 😂😂💚💚

Lolastarsandstripe · 07/03/2021 22:23

@dementedpixie I had no idea!! Just had a wee look. Thanks for sharing

See if they'd been holding up placards demanding a higher salary for nurses, the police would have been out in force and arrested the lot.

Lolastarsandstripe · 07/03/2021 22:30

The nurses are an easy target for the police. And I’m sure many police officers are blue noses

Really!! I would never have thought that 😂😂😂😂.

Hotelhelp · 07/03/2021 22:37

It’s made me so bloody angry!

To think of the things people have missed out on this last year - kids education, weddings, funerals etc but they just all decide they can do what they want!

And from what I heard on the radio SG almost condoned it.

Bunch of absolute twats.

Defender90 · 07/03/2021 22:41

It's infuriating. I'm a 'lapsed' supporter but never would I have gone to such a thing in these times.

Never ending lockdowns beckon with the likes of these.

NS "I share folks’ anger at this. Everyone has made so many sacrifices in the past year & seeing a minority risk our progress is infuriating & disgraceful. It is deeply unfair to the entire country, and the police have a hard enough job already. Please ask fans to go home @RangersFC"

What radio station were you listening to? Farage Today?

Hotelhelp · 07/03/2021 22:49

Haha crossed wires @notrub! I meant Steven Gerard not Scottish Government Grin

Couldn’t remember if he was a v or a ph so used initials instead. That’ll teach me.

raviolidreaming · 07/03/2021 22:59

Hotelhelp I knew who you meant Grin

I am really fucked off about it and dreading an increase in cases again - and the old firm in a couple of weeks won't help.

Oldbutstillgotit · 07/03/2021 23:04

DB lives in Glasgow . His neighbours are having a party . He has counted 25 people going into the house but could be more . Music in the garden . He would phone police but last time he complained about their activities he had a bag of dog poo posted through his letterbox .
