Sympathy with Union Bears banner but it misses Rangers' point

The Union Bears unfurled a banner against St. Mirren in response to Rangers’ decision to punish the group for a sectarian singing ban, and it’s split a lot of fans. For some, the Union Bears’ driving role in singing songs and creating an atmosphere at the ground was central to the club being sanctioned by…

Well said - spot on :clap:t2:

Agreed. The support need to smarten up. It’s 2019 ffs. If you’re not part of the solution, you’re part of the problem.

The picture sums them up…some clown in a balaclava, an item, in the bad old day of the troubles in NI, considered to be terrorist paraphernalia, are they trying to intimidate the opposition? They are an embarrassment at times.
The Union of bears stated previously that they generate an atmosphere at Ibrox. I’ve been a supporter for a long time and indeed I well remember that the East enclosure is where the noise was generated from, all this before seats in there. Now theUoB have held a silent protest against the club in the past! FFS, they need to grow up.
If this group generally loved the club and not themselves they would back the club. True love for the club means singing songs that won’t cause us embarrassment or kicked out of Europe. If they are the dominant group they believe they are they can lead from the front. However, their pathetic little banner on display against, St Mirren, means they are just as embarrassing as the GB and do not know how to lead and support the club.

We have a warning shot from UEFA and regardless of any stance from Rangers it won’t make a difference to any sanctions. We need to support our team now more than ever instead of arguing about a couple of songs let’s get behind Rangers and give everyone the right reasons to talk about us, the football.:uk::+1:
