Rangers ultras ask for donations for tifos after cops reveal probe into Old Firm banner
May 5, 2025
RANGERS ultras the Union Bears have asked for DONATIONS towards future tifos.
It comes after their latest display before Sunday's Old Firm clash with Celtic caused controversy.
Now stationed in the Copland Front, the Union Bears regularly unfurl huge banners at matches as well as smaller displays.
While some have been well received, others have generated controversy.
Rangers blasted the banner as 'deeply saddening and frankly embarrassing.'
Before kick-off against Celtic yesterday, the Union Bears once again unfurled a display, this time in the form of a huge tifo.
That image that inspired the tifo is a real picture, taken in 1982 as part of a World Cup build-up.
Like the tifo, Souness is holding a shotgun in the actual picture from 43 years ago.
The bottom of the display carried the words: "Take aim against the rebel scum."

A Police Scotland spokesperson confirmed to us that they were investigating, saying: “We are aware of the banner and enquiries are ongoing.”
The club fumed: "We also acknowledge that the tifo displayed prior to kick-off crossed a line and was unacceptable.
"Our approach to supporter displays has always been built on trust, with the responsibility placed on groups to exercise good judgement.
