Draft:Union Bears
Scottish football ultras group
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
The Union Bears are a self funded non profit association football ultras group supporting Rangers F.C. in Glasgow, Scotland.[1][2] Formed as a splinter group of The Blue Order in 2007,[3] following the 2006 establishment of the rival Green Brigade.[4] The Union Bears were established by members of the Blue Order seeking a European inspired form of vocal ultras support characterised by large tifo displays and pyrotechnics.[3] their Motto "no surrender" was used by the Protestant city defenders during the 1689 siege of Derry as a defiant message to the Catholic forces of King James II.[5] The Motto no surrender is used widely by Protestant unionists and rangers supporters.
