Sorry mate but that is absolute bollocks.
If the players don’t get a lift from that then that’s on them, not the fans wasting their time.

Agreed.
The same applies to letting off fireworks outside a hotel at 3am.
Utterly pointless.

They’re opposite things though.
Showing up at Ibrox to motivate our players, which it should do. Setting off fireworks is to disrupt opponents match prep, which I agree is a bit pointless.

It’s not worked yet

There’s a lot more logical reasons why it hasn’t worked yet other than fans turning up at Ibrox to see off the team.
We literally have zero support there this week, this is the closest the players will get to that, should it happen of course.
Ok let’s flip it round and nobody shows up to see them off.
How do the players feel then?

I’m not having a dig at the fans I’m encouraging them not to waste their time and money creating something for a bus load of players who will be beat while looking out the window at it

It sounds like you are the one who’s beat already mate.
Think positive, it’s our last shot at it.

Maybe they'll not feel any pressure and actually perform.

They won’t care less mate , they’ll actually go into their shell more at the hope and expectations of the fans , with all due respect mate you’ve been watching a different team going to parkheed the last 3/4 years if you think fans gathering at Ibrox will make one iota of difference
This is what I think too. In the old days geeing the squad up might have worked, when they were mentally tougher. This lot get spooked by the intensity of the game.

I am beat already , I’ll be astounded if this team that lets us down time and time again wins on Saturday or even competes , not competed there since Gerrard, I’d love nothing more than a Q a mile long ready to roast me with you at the front
come 2:15pm Saturday

I like to see the fans giving the players a send off, I just wish the players got the lift from it.
Maybe this will be the weekend they finally get fired up.

Win, draw or lose, it makes likely makes no difference to how the team will perform. However, if it gives some fans a sense of connection then no harm in it, imo.

Imagine fans not wanting other fans to show support for the team. Baffling mentality.

Cheer but shove your flares up your arse
Be a decent question for the presser if the manager wants a send off @mdingwall

Really don't think they give a %^*& either way. Doesn't seem to make any difference to their performances.

Especially after the last time we did it, we were 3 nil down before you had time to blink, eventually losing 4 nil.
Except we weren’t, last time we done it we got beat 2-1 and actually played quite well.

Most people travel in hope rather than revel in hate of their own team.
Follow Follow is the Internet's twilight zone. Go support your team, more power to anyone who shows up to send the team off.

Won't be there as I don't live in Glasgow but I hope there are thousands there making noise and being colourful to send the team off
I really hope they do get a lift but the lack of belief and fight in the players worries me. I suppose players and fans just aren’t the same thing, for them it’s a job and for a lot of us after our families it’s everything.

Those saying "this has no impact / there is no point" - should we stop the singing at games then?
It helps the fans get hyped and give the players some vocal backing (given zero of us in the piggery) and if the players don't get some boost / motivation from that then they should go and play somewhere else
We tell everyone we are a big club - mainly because of our history, traditions, stadium and atmosphere - and our fans doing stuff like this is crucial to it all

If fans want to go and send them off and try and instil the battle fever in the team they can.
If the team aren’t inspired by it it’s on them.
Some folk are so sour faced it’s unreal. Maybe they’d prefer we stood outside and shouted at Barisic and argued with Butland before they leave.

When will people realise that this is all about fan culture and its up to the fans what they do. They feel part of the club when they are doing it, they think they are helping the team rightly or wrongly, they want to show all the rest, that our fans are the best and most passionate. As they are not allowed in the stadium , its their way of showing support in front of the players. Its all about the fans and its all about winning in every aspect.
I hope it does motivate the players but you could argue that it doesn't and instead makes them more nervous about the match. Time will tell.

You never watched Mel Sterland boot the ball into the Govan every time he tried to pass it up the line.
