As we all know Rangers are playing under the
threat of this fine, having had it suspended following coin
throwing incidents during the Crewe and Bristol
City
games last season. I say we all know but it seems there was a
handful of people inside the ground who didn’t know, didn’t
understand or just didn’t care.
Despite the pleading of the club through every
media possible someone thought it would be a good idea to throw
an object onto the pitch during the game, exactly the offence
the FA have already carpeted us for.
Well I hope they are proud of themselves. Maybe
they don’t understand how little money this club has or maybe
they would rather see tens of thousands of pounds of our money
wasted rather than helping to reduce our crippling loan
repayments.
The incident has been noted in the match report
which means it is winging its way to Soho Square as we speak.
There was a chance this may have been glossed over but thanks to
the actions of an idiot on the opposite side of the ground there
is little chance of this game escaping the authorities
attention.
Ian Wright is no shrinking violet and I doubt he
had a calming effect on the situation that arose after his sons
goal, however there is no excuse for racial abuse in or indeed
out of a football ground.
Thanks to this particular numpty we have been
splashed all over the press as baying morons. Papers that
wouldn’t normally give us a second glance are only too happy to
paint us all as rabid morons and you can bet if the FA weren’t
sitting up and taking notice before they are now.
We might get away with it. In fairness to David
Davies he has acted swiftly and firmly over the incidents and,
hopefully this will impress the authorities enough to give us
yet another chance. However if they do decide to come down on us
the punishments could have far reaching and devastating effects
both financially and football wise.
So to the people who thought chucking stuff on
the pitch wouldn’t matter and to the people who think it is
acceptable to abuse someone based on the colour of their skin I
ask you to think about this.
If we have to spend money we can ill afford
because of this IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT.
If we have to play any games behind closed doors
losing valuable revenue because of this IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT.
If losing money over this means missing a loan
repayment IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT.
If we were to get points deducted because of this
IT WILL BE YOUR FAULT.
Sleep well.
