RANGERS VIOLENCE BEGAN IN LATE 17TH CENTURY, SAYS UEFA

THE violence at the Uefa Cup final began much earlier than was thought, probably in the late 17th century, officials said last night.

A Uefa investigation has revealed last month's violent scenes in Manchester were directly related to tensions arising from the Battle of the Boyne, which took place near the east coast of Ireland in 1690.

It is now believed the conflict was sparked not by a faulty big-screen television, but by a series of marginal differences over the correct method of worshipping Jesus.

Uefa said the violence then continued on and off for another 180 years until it was formalised with the establishment of Rangers Football Club in 1872.

Jean-Marie Le Blanc, Uefa's head of riots, said: "The violence in Manchester has deep, complex and incredibly stupid roots.

"It seems to based on an entrenched hostility towards Papal doctrine and an insatiable lust for the blood of 'fenians'."

He added: "If we want to prevent this kind of violence we must establish a single, agreed method for the worship of Jesus across the continent of Europe.

"Oh yeah, and booze - don't give them any booze."

:D...saw that a while back

Joking aside, only a small % of Rangers fans were involved in the cleaning of Manchester, Considering the numbers of fans there only 0.002% were said to be involved in fighting or misbehaviour of some sort.

Rangers fans fighting Rangers fans doesnt happen as far as I'm concerned. THere were "Firms" from England mixed in with the Rangers fans wearing Rangers gear to blend in, and it was reported by the police themselves, they heard English accents while the rioting was going on.

I'd have been in Manchester myself, but couldnt get over. :whistling:

the thing that annoys me is that they always seem to highlight the violence in Manchester but they don't seem to highlight the other 100s of thousands of other fans who behaved in an orderly manner
