Members of the Red Hand and Thistle are and will always be Protestant, no dilution of our birthright will ever be tolerated by this Club. Each and every member has had a friendship with one and other for at least 10 years some 40 years.
The majority of the Membership are members of the Loyal Orders, however this is not a pre-requisite for being able to join this club, tho it doesnt do you any harm either!
While the aim of Our Club is to support Rangers FC, every Member, no matter their personal political affiliation, supports the Right for the Portadown Orangemen to complete their outward journey from Drumcree Parish Church. We go further and state our support for every Orange Parade that faces the Republican inspired denial to walk the Queen's Highway, this is just another stepping stone in Republicans quest to deny us all of anything in our British/Protestant Culture, these are the very same people who bleated for years about their so-called injustices, they must be challenged at every turn, and shame to those in the higher echelons of soceity, The Parades Commission for one, who give them credence and implement their desires.
WE WILL MAINTAIN.
