Ill tell you how much the animosity towards Rangers from every club in this country has divided the support of our “national team”
Euro 96, Gazza was my hero for Rangers, I was 12 and I’d go to Ibrox early every match just to watch him in the warm up, he was always entertaining

Scotland play England Euro 96 prob 3 weeks from Gazza scoring one of the best hat tricks ever for Rangers to win us the league
During that match tho, he was “an enemy” I cheered on everyone in dark blue against him and the rest
I remember being absolutely raging when he scored

Calling him for alsorts, gutted because there was more Rangers players in the Scotland team like McCoist, Goram, McCall etc who were all heroes of mine also
Fast forward 24 years later
I really couldn’t care less about Scotland qualifying or not and that’s quite sad

The treatment of Ryan Jack from “supporters of the tartan persuasion” was typical of everything that’s rotten about Scottish football as a whole
But he’s only the latest in long line of shocking treatment directed towards Rangers players or players affiliated with Rangers

McCoist being dropped for Darren Jackson for the 98 World Cup when he’d just recovered from a brain injury was one of the worst decisions I can remember and it was a disgrace at the time... Goram being patched for Jim Leighton was also another one which was crass treatment
Wild thing is, in 1996, 1998 I’d watch Scotland and there would be no animosity or hatred towards John Collins etc, maybe I was too young to realize the actual bitterness and bigotry actually that was stemming towards all of our players from elsewhere in he country
The reality is
If Scotland qualified for this tournament inevitably if there was fans allowed to travel the support would be divided and fractioned by the anti Rangers brigade and after a few drinks the songs would turn from Scotland ones to ones of f*ck the Rangers etc etc

Ultimately that’s what it’s all about...... the poison created from 2012 will never ever leave
Some rant for 10am on a Tuesday morning but that’s just how pissed off I am about international week breaking up the momentum for Rangers
