# These Rangers fans are unhappy with the Daily Record’s headline

“Shocking that’s the main headline” – A lot of Rangers fans are unhappy with the Daily Record for making them the headline news on Monday.

Rangers beat [Kilmarnock 2-1](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49141676) in their opening game of the SPFL – and the Daily Record focused on the [over-exuberant](https://twitter.com/ibroxrocks/status/1158138337129111553) celebrations of the Gers fans.

Steven Gerrard’s side scored a[stoppage-time goal](https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/49141676) to seal the win – and a lot of Rangers fans went crazy.

There was a [pitch invasion](https://talksport.com/football/582558/rangers-fans-arrested-kilmarnock/) – and the [disabled shelter](https://talksport.com/football/582558/rangers-fans-arrested-kilmarnock/) at Killie was destroyed in the carnage.

The Daily Record have made it out like this was a [malicious act](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/ayrshire/rangers-fans-destroy-kilmarnocks-disabled-18827500) by some Rangers fans – when it wasn’t but it [was irresponsible](https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/news/scottish-news/footage-shows-rangers-fans-destroy-18827220) of those involved.

These Rangers fans are upset at the Daily Record for portraying a negative image of them.

Many Gers fans do not understand why the Daily Record have chosen them to be on the front page – when there were a lot of shocking events that took place on the 4th of August.

Others, meanwhile, point out that the paper is giving away a magazine called “Pitch Invader” – suggesting there is some contradiction in the paper’s message.
