I would bring up that the fact the mentally challengeds bastardise that flag by using gold is actually sectarianMichael is aware of the orange in his beloved tri colour right ?
Apart from the entire point of it, which is that despite how much he'd like to Michael Stewart or anyone else can't actually do anything about the colour of our shirt.Had to laugh at posters yesterday saying they won't go after anything after the songs, gullible fools.
He’d wank a tramp for his £500 fee the sticky eyed cun.t.
The biggest surprise here isn’t that a qunt like Stewart came up with this it’s that Dodds and Ferguson are arguing that there is nothing wrong with us wearing orange!Only a matter of time until we have nothing left as a club.

Derek Ferguson and Michael Stewart in Rangers on-air ding-dong as pair clash over orange strips

Derek Ferguson has labelled Michael Stewart "petty" after the pair were involved in a fierce debate over Rangers' role in sectarian chanting at Ibrox.
Ferguson and fellow BBC pundit Billy Dodds backed their former side over their full and frank reaction in the wake of UEFA's partial stadium closure for offensive singing within Ibrox.
At least 3000 supporters will miss Thursday's Europa League clash with Legia Warsaw on Thursday but Stewart reckons the club can do more and reckons binning orange strips is a must.
The club, Steven Gerrard and Dave King all delivered strong messages on Friday but the debate continues to rumble on.
The Ibrox side wore a 'tangerine' away kit last season but the former Hibs and Hearts midfielder reckons potential religious connotations means the colour should be scrapped.
Rangers previously had an orange kit in 2002/03 when the club was jam-packed with Dutch stars like Arthur Numan and Ronald De Boer.
But Stewart claims he isn't buying an ode to former players as the reason for the club choosing that look in recent seasons.
He told Sportsound : "Can you not recognise the connotations that has when there isn't a single Dutch player at the club.
"If you talk about what more the club can then not putting out orange strips, I don't think anyone would say why aren't we respecting our Dutch players that were here a generation ago.
"Clearly that doesn't help the situation.
"To say it's purely down to the Dutch players, even if you take that at face value. What benefit is that having to the whole debate?
But Derek Ferguson had heard enough.
He responded: "I think it's petty what you've come up with.
"In my opinion it's petty and I think orange strips were in respect to the Dutch players.
"Rangers are a family, we don't forget, and I absolutely love getting together with the Dutch boys during legends games.
But Stewart interjected: "Do you see the connotation that has now?"

Ferguson bit back: "It's a marketing ploy by Rangers and it's in respect of the Dutch boys - that's what I think.
"That (religious connotation) never even crossed my mind, there you go."
But Stewart kept going and probed further: "Do you not think that crosses the mind of a section of the club's supporters?
Ferguson replied: "I don't know, I cannot read minds."
Stewart doubled down on his point after Billy Dodds interjected.
He added: "Clubs can wear whatever colour they want, you guys are making the suggestion, that the clubs are doing everything they can and I am countering that by saying 'no they are not'."
I can’t object to the songs but, you’re right, it’ll be something else tomorrow.Perfect example. The singing stops, we move on to the color of the shirts. We dump the orange shirt then we'll be told the blue reminds him of how we used to have an orange shirt.
Then on to the Union Jack and it never ends.
The whole thing is a sham.
Hearts wear the colours of ABOD. Have never heard any criticism of hearts coloursOnly a matter of time until we have nothing left as a club.

Does it matter?Anyone who thinks dropping the offensive songs will stop these cunts coming after us is deluded.
They will chase us for everything they can while ignoring every other club.
It is mate and the more successful we become then the harder/faster this will be ramped up.They will stop at nothing to hinder our progress.Nothing is beneath these (unts.This just just the beginning.
Right now the songs are the only thing. But things change.I can’t object to the songs but, you’re right, it’ll be something else tomorrow.
The songs though, are the only thing that can get us into any bother, legally with the judiciary or with football authorities.
Is your opposite of a do-gooder somebody who’s determined to harm Rangers even more?if all the do-gooders are so determined to rid Rangers of any religious connotations then the orange strip needs to go.
that’s the line in the sand for us ,telling us our kit is sectarian what’s next no more union jacks ? eff right off .
What about his pubic hair does he hate that as well?No oranges in Michael's fruit bowl, just soor plums and lemons for sookin on.
Sorry, not buying that one little bit.Right now the songs are the only thing. But things change.
Today, a grown adult was offended by the color of a shirt. In days gone bye Michael Stewart would be added to the BBC sport file marked "David Icke". But he is taken seriously. That WILL continue. With the wrong people in the right places, Scottish media and footballing powers are currently looking at all aspects of Rangers FC culture.
When they can take a word, proudly used by the people it affects, and turn it in to a punishable offense, the sky is the limit.
I'd rather wear LGBT colours than the leprosy hoopsDoes he want us to wear green?
Or gay pride colours?
Michael Stewart rarely speaks as a pundit, instead he is manoeuvring for his political career.
It denotes we are members of the Royal Black Institution.This years third strip is black. I suppose we are racist as well now? FUD!
There is no dubiety about the green worn by the child molesters and spoon burnersOnly a matter of time until we have nothing left as a club.

He was challenged.Anything not Catholic is sectarian it seems. This needs defended vigorously by Rangers, the Orange Order and Protestant representatives. He’s an absolute prick but he’s got a platform to spout this stuff unchallenged. The Orange Order is not a sectarian organisation and he is offending the tens of thousands of members and associates by making such comments. He needs taken to task over this. Modern football sees almost every club introduce kits of colours not traditionally associated with their club. I’ve never ever heard anyone in the world make disparaging comments towards any other club. It’s disgraceful.
Only a matter of time until we have nothing left as a club.
