The man has gone too far now with his Twitter game. By suggesting all Chelsea fans (and by association Rangers) are racist NF BNP tubthumpers , he has caused another social media storm.
Now, call me old-fashioned, but assigning beliefs to entire groups of people based on one shared interest seems to me…well, bigotry. But hey, what do I know?
I'm no Chelsea or Rangers apologist, but this has irked me.
Collymore is really to be pitied. His problems are well documented, and I feel sorry for him. You’d think he would have a bit more empathy for others instead of labelling hundreds of thousands of people as racist simply because of their choice of football team. That’s a plainly diabolical thing to do.
To his ire he isn't viewed as a credible pundit at large, irrespective of his attempted reinvention, he is more a self-promoted twitter obsessive and tabloid radio blabber mouth. It clearly massively bothers him, but he’s really no different to the likes of Richard Littlejohn — just a loud hailer shouting into the morass.
Collymore will get a rise out of some but when you are sitting at home all day on social media with little else to do except playing with Twitter it's probably to be expected. The irony will come when he is most likely sued for one of his comments on social media, and given the extremity of his views and self-promotion of them, it won't be too far away.

Scotland's shame.
True, you can't tar all with the same brush but there is a kernel of truth. The rangers fans and sympathisers I've come accross have all been racist hooligan types.
I had the misfortune of walking down Easter road with a few hundred 'gers fans and the sectarian shit they were coming our with was frankly horrendous.
I'm sure there are some decent rangers folk out there but the ones I've met so far are vvankers. |  |

I've heard it too, numerous times - but from BOTH sets of Old Firm fans. It's disgusting and should be condemned. I say again, though, it ain't all of them. | |

Oh yeah. Don't get me wrong. I'm no fan of either OF team for that reason. Too much baggage.
Prefer the watered down hatred of Edinburgh! | |

Stanley Collymoron might have just given Aberdeen, Celtic, Rangers & St Mirren a ticket to the English League with his comments we might aswell invite them from the Northern Ireland Leagues while were at it |  |

Collymore is the Katie Hopkins of the football world...controversial just for the sheer hell of it...sells newspapers and sets the social media outlets such as this on fire....such individuals make a great deal of money being perceived as unpopular or radical ..their opinions are purely made up | | | |

Nope because the FA stance against racist/fascism etc meaning they cant turn either of said teams away for reasons of the past if they want to join the english tiers and become the next Swansea City [Post edited 21 Feb 2015 10:12]

Tazzy lad. The Old Firm are no closer to joining the Premier League, or any other English division, than they were before Collymore's rant. | |

I'm sure freedom of information act would reveal that both said clubs were turned away by fl and pl for pure fascist reasons i still think they would last a season in League Two let alone the Championship | |
