The sickening levels of racism among the Ibrox support was on show following the defeat from Motherwell.
A baseless superiority complex is always dangerous.
When that is matched in with a generation of failure confronting reality is never easy.
And when defeat follows disappointment their true colours come to the fore.
Those colours are white and white.
IBROX- THE HOME FOR WHITE SUPREMACY
Many would go further than that. In their ideal world an all white team made up of former members of the Boys Brigade would be perfect.
Fans like Ron. He only follows only 300 Twitter/X accounts. He has 2,900 followers. A popular guy with none taking him to task over his comments.
This is what social media allows nowadays. This is seen as acceptable in a percentage of society. The first post has 30 likes and not one comment from fellow fans calling it out. Sometimes I absolutely detest what society has become. pic.twitter.com/U6AdXuFvsB

For Ron’s information the club captain isn’t white. James Tavernier will depart soon, leaving as a club legend. The most successful captain in the history of the club.
Top scorer Youssef Chermiti isn’t white. Without his eight goals against Hearts and Celtic there would be no title challenge.
Star defender Manny Fernandez isn’t white. His form this season has attracted interest from leading clubs across Europe. According to Fraser Fletcher, who is white, Arsenal are preparing a summer offer of £35m.
If Ron wants a team made up of players with the DNA of Jack Butland, John Souttar, Nicky Raskin and Connor Barron he would be in for the shock of his life.
Perhaps building a team around Tavernier, Chermiti and Fernandez is the best chance of bringing success to Ibrox.
NOTE: Three times since 2019 UEFA have taken sanctions against the Ibrox club over the racist actions of their fans. Since formation in 2012 the SFA has never taken any action. The SPFL reduced Hampden tickets by 500 but won’t go near tackling the weekly racism in the form of banners and chants.
In 2019 the club launched their Everyone, Anyone campaign. Clearly there is much work still to be done.
Remember when Ovie Ejaria had to cut short his loan spell from Liverpool because of the online racist abuse he was getting from their fans
Then they and the media buried it by saying he was homesick
