    While its a shame for good football supporting locals who will be missing out on the show, i am glad this is the case. Really am. Never really a good idea.

    "Rangers ditch"...

    I stopped reading there. Someone in Boston did their homework and said "No * way, mac".

    Yet, within a week, Martin Bain will be responsible for saving them from an attempt by Celtic to kidnap them and force them to perform like slaves for Boston's Irish Hordes.

    I also call them on how the Boston Globe was responsible for "increased" "potential for crowd trouble" - for calling a spade a dirty Hun * spade, I imagine - and that Australia has suddenly became pyoor better anyway, Timmy. The fact there's an even BIGGER so-called "Celtic diaspora" there notwithstanding, I guess.

    Stupid Huns.

    Gees can't wait for that one....NOT!

    I hope someone tells the organisers that a fair chunk of us Sydney FC fans are also Celtic supporters.....Hmmmm

    Oh well, chances to abuse the huns in your home nation don't come along everyday

    doubt the huns will play aussie rules , too close to gaelic football lol

    i think rangers are afraid that the fans WILL cause trouble and end up proving that boston paper right ,

    Shame this isn't going ahead because of one man's uneducated story. There's no chance the American Rangers fans would riot. Why would they? They moved there to get away from the backwards UK and Ireland.

    Don't think Rangers should have pulled out.

    I read a few huns forums,and i can assure you,that alot of their fans based abroad,are every bit as bitter and twisted as the dirt they have here.

    Thats not to say they were going to riot,but dont go thinking all their foreign based fans are saints.

    I know Celtic will play Man U in Toronto, but are they still coming to Boston, maybe for another friendly with the New England Revolution?

    Like that had anything to do with it - everyone knows Huns can't read.

    Someone over there did their homework and told Huns to * right off. Now they'll storm around in a huff insisting "We didn't wanna go anyway, Timmy" like some grotesque man-child/alien-monkey combination.

    They'll be on a different continent from us and we'll all have a better time because of it.
