He said, word-for-word, exactly the subject line of my postI thought we copied it from millwall (the song) but was before my time. Cant remember exactly what Souness said in interview but he definitely did do one where he said something along those lines.
It was Millwall. I used to follow them back in the mid 80's and they were singing it then. Used to love the Den, cracking atmosphere there.If it's the interview I'm thinking of he actually pre-fixes the line from the song with 'The Rangers fans have a song that goes....' or something along those lines.
To answer your question, the song already existed. I've seen it claimed Millwall had their version first but, no idea how accurate that is.
He was quoting the song.When Souness said this in an interview was he quoting the song, or did the song come about because Souness said this in an interview?
Etc etc.....We hate Celtic
You should always care if no one likes you, you should manipulate people to like you which means yiu will get more off what you wantWhen Souness said this in an interview was he quoting the song, or did the song come about because Souness said this in an interview?
The way language 'evolves' in this country, it would not be long before rebel meant all kaffliks!A brilliant song and while I love the original it’s had it’s time
It’s needing new words
We are Rangers, Super Rangers
No one likes us, we don’t care
We hate Celtic, rebel Bastards
And we’ll chase them everywhere
He walked away after saying it, continued whistling the tune and clicked his heals as he wandered down the road.The question is did he say the next line
I’ve got a “cleaner” version.A brilliant song and while I love the original it’s had it’s time
It’s needing new words
We are Rangers, Super Rangers
No one likes us, we don’t care
We hate Celtic, smelly Bastards
And we’ll chase them everywhere
PWOPER !!!It was Millwall. I used to follow them back in the mid 80's and they were singing it then. Used to love the Den, cracking atmosphere there.
Tin hat on….When Souness said this in an interview was he quoting the song, or did the song come about because Souness said this in an interview?
Agreed. Never a great song to begin with and should be well in the bin by now.Tin hat on….
It’s a horrible slogan that suggests we’ll never be a political force in the SPFL or SFA
Others opinion of me are none of my business.You should always care if no one likes you, you should manipulate people to like you which means yiu will get more off what you want
Song was well before Souness said this.When Souness said this in an interview was he quoting the song, or did the song come about because Souness said this in an interview?
Took the words out of my mouth. We really do care that nobody likes us.I don’t like it at all, mainly because day and daily we demonstrate that we do care.
Fucking hell, even rebel is flittered.I’ve got a “cleaner” version.
You’re not wrong.The way language 'evolves' in this country, it would not be long before rebel meant all kaffliks!
Sailing was a hit in 1975, so any song that used this tune can not be earlier than that. I remember it from about 1985 but then again I had not been back to Ibrox for about 6 yearsSong was well before Souness said this.
I went to an FA cup match in the early 80s at the Den and they were singing it then.If it's the interview I'm thinking of he actually pre-fixes the line from the song with 'The Rangers fans have a song that goes....' or something along those lines.

1972 actuallySailing was a hit in 1975, so any song that used this tune can not be earlier than that. I remember it from about 1985 but then again I had not been back to Ibrox for about 6 years
