Jealous. The Argies are different class.

Jealous. The Argies are different class.

Definitely on the bucket list!

 

[rez1872]

South American supporters are just a different level. Would be great to take in a game one day.

 

[Big-blue]

Definitely on the bucket list!

I’m the same. Will definitely try and get to Argentina to experience a big game and atmosphere.

 

[Loud and proud]

Absolutely nobody beats the Argentinian fans for atmosphere at their games, brilliant.

 

[Alf Garnet]

Tremendous

 

[Bluejersey]

The Copland front next season

 

[Beer Belly Loyal]

Must have watched the game v Leipzig at Ibrox.

 

[1690]

That’ll be Copland Front season after this one coming singing BMG.

 

[G-Hallbear]

“excuse me Juan but I think that’s my seat”

Cant have that at Ibrox. We've got fans who dont like to stand for 90 minutes and others who dont like organised singing. Then there's some who dont like flags and drums and that's before we talk about pyro.

 

[Brian Laudrup]

Just incredible stuff

the Argies are mental and not just at the football

 

[Deco1978]

Just wow!

 

[beowulf]

Beat me to it. Great chant.

 

[MillportBear]

My Spanish is a bit rusty, but I think they’re singing “If you cannae do the bouncy you’re a tim”

 

[Dalai Lammers]

Genuine question

Can you football tourist right in the middle of that?

My son would think he was in heaven

 

[Broom-loneranger]

"Mate gonae sit down i cant see"

 

[vinnie]

Can you imagine if someone suggested that on here?

“Am no fuckin singin that shite!”

 

[MillportBear]

Can you imagine if someone suggested that on here?

“Am no fuckin singin that shite!”

Doesn't mention the pope, IRA or Bobby Sands - I'm out

 

[Teddy Casablanca]

Now THAT'S singing section.

 

[DavieCooper on the wing]

Wow,incredible atmosphere.

 

[Cavin]

Like 70's Scotland, before pc was invented!

 

[WBD]

A lot of the time when you these crowds close up, they are mostly early early 20's/30's. Same as the ACDC gig at the River Plate, same age group (watching a band who could be their grandads )

 

[Lairdo]

What a support.

Had the good fortune to meet some in Abu Dhabi in 2018 (World Club Championship). Top blokes - and they did know about Rangers history.

 

[TN8]

That's fucking incredible. I need more Argentinian fitba in my life I think. Does the chap on here still do the threads every season?

Bought that Angels With Dirty Faces book a couple of years ago now and still haven't opened it, might go and get it after Gogglebox.

That looks feckin awesome

 

[GovanDerry]

Wonder how many people are shouting at them to sit down and stop singing

As much as we can create cracking atmospheres on some Euro nights and Old Firms, the rest of the time the place is chronically bad!

 

[Rangerista]

A fan was recently killed at the stadium after falling from a balcony. When you see the fans precariously standing astride the barriers, it's not surprising that an accident can happen.

Argentina: River Plate football game suspended after fan dies in 15-metre fall from stadium

The home club, Argentinian giants River Plate, has decreed a day of mourning as investigations get under way into how the man came to die at the game.

[DKRangers]

Bucket list for me would be going to a Boca-River game then sampling a trance/techno night whilst there as well. The atmosphere Argentinian fans create is outstanding.

 

[Captain Cutlass]

Boca can outsing and outplay these tramps every time!

 

[the_baron]

On my bucket list to go to a game there.

Done a Flamengo game at the Maracana recently and that was an incredible experience but Argentina looks another level.

 

[TheVandalorian]

Boca can outsing and outplay these tramps every time!

Well, they didn’t in the last Superclasico and they’re miles behind in the league.

 

[Clicker]

Just incredible stuff

the Argies are mental and not just at the football

Knew it would be that video before I opened it. Saw them at Hampden that year, and I thought was a great atmosphere, but compared to the Monumental the gig at Hampden was a Salvation Army picnic.

 

[AlbertaBlue]

Is the renovation complete there or still on going

 

[Rangerista]

Last time I saw, they've still one long side of the stadium to complete.

Squaring the stadium off looks like it's had the desired effect, atmosphere is even better than it was.

My favourite River fan moment remains:

My favourite River fan moment remains:

We are the people who follow the Rangers
Forever and ever we'll follow the Rangers
The pride of the country and always the leaders
Setting the standards for others to follow
And we welcome the chase and we welcome the chase...

 

[Zwingli'sSausages]

Like 70's Scotland, before pc was invented!

Yeah, you're right. If it wasn't for bloody political correctness.

 

[Zwingli'sSausages]

My favourite River Plate clip.

 

[DKRangers]

My favourite River Plate clip.

Big fan of the song they were singing during the World Cup. 3 min mark.

 

[vicbex]

So jealous of what they have in Argentina, compared to our stale, sterile, bland matchday "experiences".

Do you think they had a 5 year consultation followed by a couple of surveys to find out if fans wanted this or preferred a seat with a view?

 

[stooler]

Winner for me

 

[GovanFront4]

Wah wah who needs to stand and sing!

 

[No Money No Problems]

My favourite River Plate clip.

Whenever anyone talks about River Plate that video is the first thing that comes to mind. It's just incredible.

 

[Kit_]

I take it you're royally fucked if you go for a pish at half time

Ehhh excusa me amigo, I uhhh cannyo finda mi seato.

 

[Skyy Bluenose]

Can’t follow the words, is that Simply the Second Best.?

 

[Gennaro_88]

Great video.

Went to a classico in 2016 - saw one of the only 0-0 draws boca and river have played in last decade.

Some support and a cracking stadium.

The stadium is right on the flight path for planes coming into the airport, so they're quite low when they pass over the stadium. Tells you how loud the fans are that I could barely hear a 747 coming over the ground for the fireworks and chanting.

They have rover tickets. Imagine that? They must be mental.

 

[Henry2510]

Def love me and my boy when he’s a bit older go to Boca v River Plate Boca end for me because of the GOAT Diego

 

[Wazza]

One City every Football fan should experience. Problem is you’ll always compare your future experiences to it, a total different level to anything over here.
