Chaka Demus Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Here's a question to the Celtic contingent on here, a genuine question. Any idea why some Celtic fans have taken offence to us adopting Roy Orbison's "Penny Arcade" as our new anthem? It's been sung in Rangers pubs for years but they've only just started playing it before the teams come out at Ibrox Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Daaaaaad! Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 That's an odd one. I just read the lyrics and the only things I could find were 'blue turned to green then to red' and 'spend until you've spent your last dime' or something similar. Appropriate somehow, but not offensive. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bAzTNM Fan Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 I think that's a completely fictitious story that probably started on Follow Follow or something. I have seen threads on several Celtic forums that are named things like "Why do the Huns think we are offended by 'Penny Arcade?'" I for one certainly am not. I honestly couldn't care less what plays over the tannoy at Ibrox. Anything beats that horrible tin whistle shite that blares over the stadium incessantly for most of the pre-match/half time. Â The game yesterday was great. We played well, HORRIBLE conditions but we kept ourselves warm by jumping about like loons. I honestly believe we have the most colourful, vocal and lively away support in Britain at the moment. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's been sung in Rangers pubs for years but they've only just started playing it before the teams come out at Ibrox I've not heard of anyone taking offence to that particular song. Â I think it shows that Rangers fans at least have a sense of humour to be singing a song about a hopeless gambling addict. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
TAFKAC Posted February 14, 2011 Share Posted February 14, 2011 Rangers and Celtic are provincial. Hearts and Hibs are not. If we are going to slate clubs then at least acknowledge that Edinburgh and not Glasgow is the capital. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Daaaaaad! Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Off to Ibrox for the Lisbon game on Thursday, been a while since I've been up there too. Even more gutted now that Jelavic is ineligible, which still makes me look back and think exactly how Rangers thought Miller was worth taking Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bring Back Minipops Posted February 15, 2011 Share Posted February 15, 2011 Motherwell and Kilmarnock casuals. What is the world coming too to? Was it three men and a dog like their usual support? The words of a knuckle-dragging glory hunter indeed. Oh, and I've corrected your little spelling error there  Glory Hunter, hahaha. I've been going to Rangers games since I was 5 years old and had a season ticket since I was 9. If I was only in it for the glory I'd have subscribed to SKY. But the wee provincial clubs fans like to call us Glory hunters cause their teams never amount to fuck all.    "Step up and play each machine seemed to say as I walked round and round the Penny Arcade" http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=udhBhJW-KJ8  "When I see Celtic, I go out of my head, and I just cant get enough"  Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
