Laughing at the thought of you expecting him to be gone after the Old Firm and now you have to keep this up everyday until Christmas hahaha

What a player he was

I look forward to these posts every day. Some great reminders of days gone by and players that we have forgotten we had. I hope you keep it going even if Martin does get sacked

Can I ask when you started supporting Rangers? in the 9 years you have had a reddit account, these are the only posts or comments you have made on this sub. What has inspired you all of a sudden to start a "Sack a Rangers manager" campaign?

9 years? We have been in pretty bad shakes in that time, not a single comment here.

Started going to games with my dad in 2006 when I was a wee lad mate. Been in the sub for ages just not been active till now.

The view of wanting Martin out is a majority amongst the fans so these posts are a way to keep it light and reminisce over old players. I understand some folk find it weird and if the mods have any objections I'll understand if they remove them. Until then though (or fans views shifting on RM), I'll keep them going.

Ok, i might be barking up the wrong tree here, but you have been going to Rangers games all your days, but not made a single comment to the Rangers sub? Even after we won the league? But you comment on lots of other subs

What inspired you to be active? Was Russel Martin the final straw for you?

If I was a tim the last thing I'd be doing would be trying to get Russell Martin sacked.

It's his choice when he wants to be active and comment/post on the sub as it is for everyone. I'm not speaking for OP but I think this is the first time I've ever seen the fanbase so together this early about a manager.

So as the vast majority of the fanbase want him gone people may come on here to vent frustration because there is a genuine belief that if we replace him we can win the league this year.

For me personally, he should have been shown the door after the Brugge game.

Not me you are asking but I think I am similar, I don't typically post a lot here but Russell Martin has me wanting to vent my rage 24/7 (and currently I have a job that lets me to sit on here). I've never wanted a managed sacked before, was willing to give even Beale and Pedro more time, and was gutted when we sacked Clement.

My first game was Gazza's hattrick to win 8 in a row, so I guess I'm from a time when social media wasn't a thing. Most of the time I just talk to my mates, dad, work colleagues, neighbours, etc. about Rangers; social media or posting online doesn't generally cross my mind unless I'm sitting bored at work.

Same. First game was Hearts at Ibrox in the 90s, Durie scored two I think. Don't post that much here, but also never seen such a disjointed Rangers team in my life.

u/ElbowDroppedLasagne 4d ago

Take your rangers bashing to r/ScottishFootball some cunts want to get behind the team

u/Cognitiveshadow1 4d ago

Hah. The irony. Since you love creeping on people’s post history, maybe try mine. I’ve been downvoted to fuck for telling people to get behind Martin and stop being so reactive. Doesn’t mean I approve of this “are you sure you’re a fan” pish.

Read the other posts man. Don't take it so butthurt and personally.

u/ElbowDroppedLasagne 4d ago

You don't think it's weird?

u/Redpetrol 4d ago

No it's become a super common joke or light hearted post in scottishfootball and if he didn't do it someone else would have. What I think is weird is you being so paranoid about it.

I never posted in this sub for years either because it was shite.
