Rangers have been on an extended break for a few weeks now. The last time the club played, they won the Old Firm 2-1 with goals from Ryan Kent and Alfredo Morelos. Celebrations were a controversial topic after the match, with Kent’s finger gun celebration causing rival fans to riot. They did not think it was appropriate.
But Rangers fans have stood firmly behind the celebration and the player. When a fan posted a video of the celebration, adding gunshot graphics to the footage, the fans thought it was brilliant.
They think that it will cause the Celtic supporters to go crazy. They cannot imagine what it must be like to be so offended at something so small.
That’s quality…out of the top drawer

Do you think rival fans have are right to question the celebration?
Yes
No
Other supporters pointed out that the build-up to the goal was the best part. They think the passing was brilliant.

What do we think?
These fans are clearly not too bothered by Kent’s celebration. They think it was all a bit of fun. Perhaps if Celtic fans are so concerned with the celebrations, they should get on their team’s defence to stop conceding goals against Rangers.
