Irony was a few years later Rangers were signing any English they could get their hands on. Brummies, Cockneys, anything...and then they signed Mo Johnston...
The West of Scotland what a wonderful place. It's a Nuthouse but you got to love it well it provides such great comady material no place quite like it. It's great to be from such a place.
may seem tame now, but this could be the most satirical sketch ever in Scotland. The fact it was on Scotch & Wry means it was dealt with with humour - disnae mean to say that even the thought of this would've had a large number of Rangers fans/West of Scotland prods foaming at the mouth (no, REALLY). It would take a while, but eventually players like Mo Johnston or Terry Butcher would sign for the Gers - of course if they played really well, then they were ibrox legends - if they didn't then you can guess the rest...
This is comedy gold 3 legends Gregor Fisher Rikki Fulton & Gerrard Kelly. Rikki’s face when Gerrard says he had to go to mass 1:19-1:37 😂😂one legged Rabbi. Sammy shut up 😂😂 RIP Rikki & Gerrard yous & Gregor made this clip legendary
Johnston was a brave man tbf having both Celtic and Rangers fans upset. I’m sure he must have had 24/7 security as his life must have been threatened by fans of both clubs.
@HB 77 a classmate of mine from college years ago, used to live near him as a kid, and him and his mates used to call him it if they saw him, and he'd chase them up the street 🤣🙈💁🏻♂️
Hilarious, I remember watching it as a kid & that was in a time with less than a handful of channels so it was talked about all over Scotland for days. I’ve just shown my wife this clip , she’d never seen it , I thought everyone of an age had. I also remember going to see a play with Jimmy Logan & Una McLean at the Kings in Glasgow that took on the same subject around the same time, I don’t remember it’s name but Jimmy starred as a Rangers fan who got arrested for throwing an orange at a referee only to come home and find that same referee renting the spare room at home, he also had to suffer the indignity of jumping for joy at the news his son had signed a professional football contract only to discover that he wouldn’t be wearing the shirt he had dreamed about 😳 oops.

Apparently this is “sir” Matt busby in reverse! ! He only signed catholic’s. The only reason George best got signed was because he supported a catholic team in Belfast so I was told
Now at least 2/3 of the Rangers team are Catholic. How times have changed. Its always good to reminiscent from the past though to see how far we have come.

@@terrencemunro yes. Infront of no fans!!!!! Ingrained opinion, its for all to see. Its OK when it's yer own player and not ok of its a celtic player!!!. Yes ingrained opinion indeed.!!!
Mo Johnston signed for Rangers in 1989. I can't remember when this sketch was broadcast. Was it before or after? What a long expressive face Rikki Fulton has. Notice how much longer his face is than the other two. I always liked him from Francie and Josie onward.
No, Bunny was played by Gerard Kelly (died 2010) and this is Rikki Fulton (died 2004) EDIT: Just realised you meant the footballer! Bloody hell! It IS him!
Rikki Fulton, what a comic. Remember him back in the day. Looking at this sketch and others of the same ilk - you'd never get away with this stuff in these politically correct times. You were, still are, a legend big man!!
There's nothing remotely offensive about this clip, and only football fanatics with religious issues would "maybe" take issue with it, so it's got nothing to do with being politically correct. Honestly, it's tedious to come on these classic comedy videos and always find a "You'd never get away with this these days" type comment (on the tamest of content too), so maybe stop making up problems which aren't there to try and make yourself look hard.
I love this sketch and have seen it so many times. The only thing is that I'm a kiwi and don't really get why the the fact he's Catholic is such a deal breaker. I do remember once asking my dad, a kiwi by way of England, about it and all he'd say was "Rangers don't hire Catholics" which was obvious from the sketch. If someone could ELI5 it would be much appreciated.
It has as much to do with Northern Ireland as Scotland, madly enough. During the Irish Famine (1845-1849) Glasgow had a huge influx of Irish immigrants (mostly Catholics) and this caused quite a bit of anger in the local community who was largely Protestant. This kinda bubbled under the surface quite a lot, but manifested itself in the communities having things like different pubs or sports clubs that they went to. Rangers was founded in 1875 and didn't really have any religious leanings at the time; Celtic was founded in 1887 to provide a social outlet and resource for poor Irish Catholic immigrants. They established a sporting rivalry and then in the early 1900s with the First World War and the Easter Rising in Ireland politicising issues. Some would argue the biggest factor in the religious issue developing was Harland and Wolff - a Belfast shipbuilder notorious for refusing to hire Catholics - opening a yard in Glasgow due to instability in Ireland. It was opened in Govan, and it happened that Rangers were the closest football club, also based in Govan, so many of the Ulster Protestant shipbuilders who came over to work in the H&W yard adopted Rangers as their team. So it's kind of multifactorial: - west (Rangers) and east (Celtic) Glasgow - Protestant and Catholic - British identity vs Irish identity (you won't see many Scotland flags in either stadium) To answer your initial question Rangers had a long standing policy of not signing Catholic players for the reasons listed above - it was never said out loud but was widely accepted. Graeme Souness signed Mo Johnston and since then they've signed plenty of Catholics, like Gennaro Gattuso and Mikel Arteta, and even an Irish Catholic from Dublin, Jon Daly.
Sadly it's all to do with religion,rangers were exclusively protestants,celtic r a club open to all,all changed when Maurice Johnston signed for rangers to become the first roman Catholic to play for them,adding that Johnston previously played for celtic
This sketch was inspired by the story told by ex - Celtic player , Danny McGrain , a Protestant , and Rangers fan at the time , who said he was turned down by the Ibrox club when they discovered his full name was Daniel Fergus McGrain . Aye , you couldnae make it up .
+Craig Wilson It never ceases to amaze me how your sort will shoehorn the ROI into any discussion about sectarian problems in your stupid society. Of course the FAI are going to target Nationalists who are culturally Irish. McNair refused the FAI, not the other way around.
Craig is typical of certain attitudes that emanate from Scotland. Hates the colour green most likely supports a dead club who banned their players from wearing green boots (you couldn't make it up) and most likely sings about been up to his knees in Catholic blood. Scotland's Shame indeed.
The Notorious Vito Corleone see his answer was pish ok, but your on the other side of fence. We see you's as the bigots and vice versa we'll never live in peace. Catholics are apart of Scotland's shame and play a bigger part than they'll ever realise, hardly either of any side go to church anyway. Its the cultural and moral sides that clash way too much as a protestant and a rangers fan, celtic fans ARE the bigots. We may have songs like the sash and derrys walls that you lot scream sectarian when we do sing those songs, crying over singing songs is petty. Scotland's real shame is giving in to cloud minded folk who offer no benefit to the country that wave a Irish flag have erin tattooed on his knuckles but has never left Glasgow apart from the occasional trip to blackpool. From me to all of you. Fuck the pope and yourselves you bunch of morally twisted fuckers. I moved 300 miles away from scotland to be away from that toxic pc Catholicised bullshit my country has turned in too
Its always scottish when its pish but british when its good , i.e andy murray winning wimbledon he was british but when he won fuck all else he was scottish lol haha 😂😂
That is the best that I ever heard in my long life of living on this earth for 98.5 years, 7 goals scored in the first half, had to attend mass during the 2nd half, that it how my brothers and sister were brought up, to be a good upstand Catholics and it has paid off and so it did for Brendan O'Malley

Rangers didn't bother to ask the 16 yr old Kenny Dalglish to sign for them. Kenny was a Rangers fan but attended a Catholic school as it had an all weather pitch..they assumed he was a Catholic and that wouldn't do..
As a Rangers fan I find this sketch hilarious, but like all the best stories, it is based on myth and legend. Rangers had Catholics in their team in 1872, long before their Catholic rivals Celtc, were even formed in 1888. In fact, there hasn't been a decade where Rangers didn't have Catholics at Ibrox.
@@GlasgowCelticforever1888 You're wrong. The old Celtc died in 1994. I think they had 6 paedo convictions by that time. In 2023, Celtc now have 9 convicted paedos.
Craig Wilson as a child in a catholic secondary school I wholeheartedly agree with you Craig. Joke that we have special schools based on something as stupid as religion in 2018
Craig Wilson well if previous catholics back 50-60 years ago weren't attacked for being nothing more than catholic then we would live in peace. Remember school got a half day off when a Catholic got a job in a bank. Plus there's nothing more apartheid than the orange lodge where kids are taught to hate catholics and praise the queen and singing sectarian songs in a cult.
To the Rangers haters who post, what’s your opinion on Mo Johnston? Rangers ended this unwritten policy when they signed him nearly 30 years ago, and all he gets is hatred from you guys. For all your faux outrage over this signing policy you never give Souness any credit whatsoever for ending it.
It's celtic fans who bring up that and hate it we don't give a fuck who you are, you can play well that's good enough. But for more than 30 years we've had to hear this ancient rule about we didn't sign Catholics, fucks sake mate learn history not the worst thing that's ever happened
One of the greatest Scotch & Wry sketches was when Gregor Fisher was PC Plod aka Supercop and stopped Mark McNanus aka DI Taggart, who was on a stakeout.

What was the last fella supposed to be? I dont get it? The rest of the sketch, genius..........🤣🤣🤣🤣
English !
@@georgerichardson7728 and what's the joke? Rangers don't like the English?
@@frankeeg83 I think it was just the usual Scots /English rivalry thing
Rangers didn't bother to ask the 16 yr old Kenny Dalglish to sign for them. Kenny was a Rangers fan but attended a Catholic school as it had an all weather pitch..they assumed he was a Catholic and that wouldn't do..
Brilliant ❤️🏴👍
What year was this
Just googled it 1979
This one sketch will beat every Only An Excuse for ever and has done.
Aye It Will Always,
both sets of fans love this sketch
As a Rangers fan I find this sketch hilarious, but like all the best stories, it is based on myth and legend. Rangers had Catholics in their team in 1872, long before their Catholic rivals Celtc, were even formed in 1888. In fact, there hasn't been a decade where Rangers didn't have Catholics at Ibrox.
Another sevconian trying to rewrite history. What catholics ever played for the club that died?
@@GlasgowCelticforever1888 You're wrong. The old Celtc died in 1994. I think they had 6 paedo convictions by that time. In 2023, Celtc now have 9 convicted paedos.
I wonder if the anti Catholic bigotry some Rangers fans have didn't even exist before Celtic existed. Mabey it developed from football rivalry.
@@GlasgowCelticforever1888We're not Sevconian, We're British. You silly Pacific Shelfian.
@@GlasgowCelticforever1888what the fuck is a sevconian??? Another bigoted half wit
How sad Scottish society was/is like this? Great to laugh at it though.
Craig Wilson as a child in a catholic secondary school I wholeheartedly agree with you Craig. Joke that we have special schools based on something as stupid as religion in 2018
Caroline Lees also Caroline, what’s wrong with a non catholic child going to a catholic school? You’re part of the issue
+Craig Wilson It doesn't seem to be a problem in England.
Sam, I think you mean different schools and not special schools?
Craig Wilson well if previous catholics back 50-60 years ago weren't attacked for being nothing more than catholic then we would live in peace. Remember school got a half day off when a Catholic got a job in a bank. Plus there's nothing more apartheid than the orange lodge where kids are taught to hate catholics and praise the queen and singing sectarian songs in a cult.
500th sub 😎
I aye rangers good wee team that
Any1 watching 2024, old school comedy when it was allowed
To the Rangers haters who post, what’s your opinion on Mo Johnston? Rangers ended this unwritten policy when they signed him nearly 30 years ago, and all he gets is hatred from you guys.
For all your faux outrage over this signing policy you never give Souness any credit whatsoever for ending it.
Mo was a top class footballer full stop end of Story.
Ps As was Mark Walters. I still remember some fans throwing Bannanas at him to our same but he was top class
It's celtic fans who bring up that and hate it we don't give a fuck who you are, you can play well that's good enough. But for more than 30 years we've had to hear this ancient rule about we didn't sign Catholics, fucks sake mate learn history not the worst thing that's ever happened
He shouldn't of wore mittens .
Only reason Rangers signed a Catholic was they had to or they wouldn't be able to play in Europe,end of.!!!!
Almost got it on the pluke ready to rip it up! 😂😂😂😂😂
Ever felt like fouling anybody hahaha
🏴Rangers Football Club🏴

@@alanbbrady8196 celtic have 0 titles without touching kids.
Classic comedy back when comedy was funny
Good ole days
As much as I did laugh - well I was a child - I look back at this with a whole different view now and find it beyond disturbing.
One of the greatest Scotch & Wry sketches was when Gregor Fisher was PC Plod aka Supercop and stopped Mark McNanus aka DI Taggart, who was on a stakeout.
Brilliant stuff.
RAB in a different dimension, sober.
Funny as fuck so sad it was true but
