Sparta Prague fans racially abused Monaco's Aurelien Tchouameni so faced a stadium closure tonight vs Rangers.
The only exception is that 10,000 local kids under 14 years are in but Glen Kamara, racially abused by Slavia’s Ondrej Kudela, is now being booed with every touch.

Vascular dementia means that sometimes a visit ends with you leaving demoralised as you feel you’re losing your granda in front of your eyes.
Then he watches Rangers win 3-0, recites the Iron Curtain team from the 1940’s & he’s brimming with life.

It’s preposterous to claim Rangers’ kit launch video is controversial.

This only debases future conversations.
1/3 The laudable mission statement from Rangers ‘Everyone, Anyone’ campaign. The question the club has to answer today: does using the tune to what has sadly become in Scotland ‘The Famine Song’ on an official video live up to a single letter of it?
