Why would that one tackle against a previously unheard of player damage Scottish fitba' anymore than any other tackles that fly in week in week oot /

It's simple, yet obviously too difficult for you to grasp: -

Top English Premiership clubs aren't going to send their young players up here for first team experience if they see that their players are being targeted for brutality. Scottish football will be seen as backwards and Neanderthal, and if you think that's only going to affect Rangers then think again - young Feruz at Hibs would be warming the bench at Chelsea U21s instead of Hibs.

That is how Scottish football's reputation would be damaged.

Now the cause/effect shouldn't be difficult to understand, but that of course is muddied by the simple fact that the boy plays for Rangers, therefore he's allowed to be booted all the way back to London. People's attitudes need to change, some of you guys need to stop hating Rangers above all else.
