I listened to Stubbs interview in the tunnel right after the game and you could hear the disappointment in his voice rather than the excitement and joy of the what was achieved on the pitch by the team. I know none of you are condoning anything that happened but there has to be punishment of Hibs and a lot of outside shame because of these events.
Sco lets get one thing right here. I'm not saying it was right for the fans to run on to the pitch but the fans who ran on to the pitch did this to celebrate the clubs BIGGEST ACHIEVEMENT in 114 years. It's very clear on tv footage Rangers players where either off the pitch or making their way off the pitch.
Any trouble started when the Rangers fans came on to the pitch why they done this nobody will understand this but it's clear they could not handle the celebrations of the HFC fans. I've looked at lots of papers and tv footage and there's lots more evidence that Rangers fans assaulted more HFC fans than the other way around. Even very clear picture of one Rangers fans trying to pull a small hibs fan away.
Now one point I'd like to make is when HFC made the score 2-2 or even when they went 3-2 up why dd the stewards and police not make a human chain at both ends of the ground they had plenty time to put this measure in place if they had done this then nobody would be talking about any trouble.
There's more stories coming out all the time I heard from a friend of mine who attended the Official Team Party at Easter Rd on sat night he told me that a few players had txts from rangers players to congratulate them on winning the cup and also said that Kenny miller was meant to have went into the hibs dressing room and shook hands with the hibs team. Believe what you wish but IMO HFC are getting a lot of bad & unnecessary press.
I am not suggesting you are condoning it but the media should be focused on the historic win, instead the actions of a small minority is taking all the headlines and that is a shame!! No Hibs fans on the pitch and no Rangers fans feel the need to go on either, you can lay the blame for the media storm wherever you want but it was the Hibs fan that invaded, anything that happened after that was as a direct consequence of that invasion. I also accept that 99% of those on the pitch were there to celebrate the fantastic win, but it will cost you as a club and tarnishes your reputation.
The only people who like Rangers are Rangers fans - the only people who like Rangers fans are Rangers fans they stroll about all over Scotland Europe or where ever they play singing religious / sectarian songs what ever you want to call it making people's lives a misery with ther unruly conduct they are really unwanted by everyone bar Rangers.
Another wee point Mark Warburton has caused a big rift between the two clubs since his arrival at Ibrox with the Scott Allan affair he's slated our style of play he's had a go at Alan Stubbs now it's came back and bit him hard on the arse he can't admit he & his team where outplayed in a major cup final and in other games by HFC.
Now before I go everyone is talking about the invasion on Saturday I will only say one more word about RANGERS FC ................... MANCHESTER
GGTTH WE'VE NO WON THE BIG CUP SINCE ............ Quarter to 5
