respect the other Wolverine fans by not standing for the entire game.

I like him a lot. Flip will earn the respect of the fans here. I know he will. They're obviously not going to accept him at the beginning -- you shouldn't. See what he does, but I know he's going to succeed.

We're optimistic pessimists. We believe in ourselves, but no one else. We have respect for our fans and for what we do and if we were to pay attention to anything else, I think we would all go nuts.

I didn't want to play in the West out of respect for the fans and the players,

Both of us respect the game, and the point was to send a message, not to harass fans; either physically or by later comments that disparage their character. If that's accomplished, then it's time to move on. It's never been about money.

These are not true fans because they bring this club down . . . you have to be ashamed of them, ... I believe it is only a small minority, but it is a minority which everyone connected with Rangers, including the majority of our supporters, are not happy to accommodate.
