Rangers Thread - 2022/23

[IrishBlueSince92]

Had to laugh at Harvey Elliott blessing himself at Ibrox praying the VAR would allow his goal

 

[IrishBlueSince92]

At least neither Celtic or Rangers will be wrecking Manchester or ripping our seats up this year.

Or singing IRA songs at us in the case of Celtic or wearing utd shirts.

At the CL draw every year when Celtic or Rangers are in it all I want is for City to avoid both.
Too much baggage and shite involved

Is the correct, and only, answer.

Thought the night couldn't have got much funnier until I seen this. Sorry for the source, the only unfortunate thing here is it's the scousers who got to milk it.

Now thats as hilarious as it is pathetic...... Sometimes I just wish that the stewards would just move aside and say "fcuk it"...... "Go on then ladies, you 25 hard MIB 'wannabees' feel free to have a go at the 3-4K away fans you fkin idiots!!"

Henry Winter condoling violence?

It's a Darwin theory of evolution move I must admit.

Funny enough Winter ignores what the Liverpool fans were singing.

Lizzys in a box and pro IRA chants.

He like the rest of his chums are petrified of offending them it's pitiful.

Celtic and Rangers play cannon fodder every week because they don't allow for other clubs to develop or compete. The first sign of promising players coming through elsewhere in the league and they're taken for peanuts and benched for a couple of years and eventually any potential talent is wasted, time and time again. That and the distribution of finances make it impossible for everyone else to even consider challenging.

To develop themselves they would require to develop others too, and that's something they're unwilling to do. I don't blame them particularly, if they see money as theirs then so be it, but just know that they won't get the opportunity to kick on as they should unless they start to take a longer term approach for the good of the Scottish game and not just themselves.

That’s exactly what I have been saying for years.

Might as well be the rags.

How do you see that happening?

Which i do agree as a fan of Rangers

 

[bigf42]

Do we still get the same Euro spots next season even though our clubs have struggled this season.

Check Bert’s site, that’ll tell you where things are at, the recent uplift was due to Russia being banned not sure where the co-efficient are now. https://kassiesa.net/uefa/

Honestly mate I don't see it happening.

As I said in my post, i don't particularly blame the old firm for wanting to keep the pie for themselves, its theirs after all and so longs they're playing by the rules then they've no obligation to do anything for anyone else.

But in order to better themselves then Scottish football as a whole needs to be bettered and they're the ones in anything like a position to make that happen. But then when Rangers and Celtic fans are critical of their own boards for not investing properly in their own team, then they're hardly likely to invest in helping other clubs. Ultimately it's a pipe dream, but it really would take people with more entrepreneurial vision and willing to take initial sacrifices to make it work.

The new sky TV deal is the latest example of the sport up here being short changed and everyone just accepting that's the way it is, laughable.

Shitehawks.

Surley there must be a scottish manager who instils the inner begbie into his players who's better thank von bratwurst or whatever hes called.

And yet Rangers I think we're the only club to oppose the new Sky deal because they feel it was short changed.

Aye, I agree with them/you on that. Did you hear the nonsense Cormack of Aberdeen was coming out with?

Oh, I agree, it needs to be competitive.

It's a joke the new tv deals, and I'm not surprised Rangers were against it, even if they were looking out for themselves.

Agree but Scottish football is a hard sell.
Not sure how much more they could have got but the clubs should have stuck together to at least try to get more money from the TV companies.

wasn't the scottish rugby union getting more money than the SPL from a previous tv deal with the bbc?
