  1. In the real world, not every Rangers supporter fits into your stereotype and hence you have differing opinions being put forward. Your intolerent tone and language paints it's own picture.
  2. We could do relatively well and still not make the group stages. I look at some of the seeded teams further into the qualifiers..... Sevilla Besiktas AZ Alkmaar Maccabi Tel-Aviv RB Leipzig Partizan Belgrade Burnley Atalanta Zenit Feyenoord Bordeaux Olympiakos, etc. .... and just think it's asking a lot to turn things round so quickly and dispatch that level of team.
  3. Wrt the league in general, swimming against a strong tide won't take us anywhere. If we want to get anywhere, we'll have to do it ourselves but first we have to sort ourselves out so I doubt we'll get far this year.
  4. Trying to be objective and forgeting my own views on flags in general.....I look at the design of the white top with Union flag incorporated and think it's a cracker that has potential to sell extremely well and not only within our support base. With that in mind and given current circumstances, I'd actually be dissappointed if we didn't go with it.
  5. I think he may try to but IMO he's not very good at that side of things.
  6. The line IMO is orange strip ok for the reasons you mention but prominent flag, not so. Or in other words, colours rather than symbols.
  7. People can have an opinion. That doesn't mean anything should be, has to be or will be ditched. Don't take offence
  8. Whisper tends to be translated as Colin Nish. The 4M figure is the go to bullsh** number this summer.
  9. I have no problem with a simple colour (orange) but I don't think any flag (Union flag or Saltire) should be so prominent within a strip design but that's just me and I don't buy strips anyway. Asthetically, it looks good and commercially it'd be successful so it does make sense in that regard.
  10. IMO the time to have got Allan was the second season we were in the Championship but instead Hibs bought him and thus he entered into a dynamic where if he did well, he wasn't going to be allowed to go to Ibrox aslong as he had a contract with Hibs. He's now tied into a contract that means the one place you can be assured he won't be coming is Ibrox.
  11. Regardless, the numbers involved are obscene.
  12. It isn't the same, in that our Chairman has personally and publicly made a specific allegation against an individual(s) and specific request for action of the SFA.
  13. Selfishly, I've always thought the easiest thing to do would be to have no away supporters at either ground for various and obvious reasons. Although I get the various and obvious counter arguments.
  14. I'm raging at this,.....there'll be no resale value.
  15. 1. Generally, politics are part of the football scene in Glasgow and both big clubs identify with different flags and the ensuing politics. 2. It simply ties in with the very polarised enviroment, the mutual hate and industrial rhetoric. 3. The Independence Referendum in 2014 (allied to our problems) brought a whole new dimension to the polarisation and enabled the other side of the fence to recruit 'haters' of us. 4. As a club we've been weak (at various levels & for various reasons) and have been on the backfoot, 'taking it on the chin' for years. 5. A counter-offensive is long overdue but like everything it should be carefully thought through and be part of a strategy that has a future rather than simply reactionary.
  16. This guy was close but no resale value went against him......... A worldy but no confirmation of any interest as I type........ Definite resale value here.........
  17. By the sounds of it the publication it appeared in took it off their site and they or other interested party had google remove it aswell prior to the SFA appointment of Hughes. The issues are that Hughes is supposed to be 'independent' and that there were possibly SFA personel with knowledge or complicent in the removal of the article. The fact such efforts were involved in the articles removal from the web shows that there was a perception of it being a black mark on such an 'independent' appointment in the first place by the candidate/SFA. Effectively, they(Hughes/SFA personel) have already passed self-judgement on Hughes/SFA personel, several years ago.
  18. Generally, if we pander to their every whim we'll just continue on a slippery slope. I'd ridicule those who want to use it as a stick to beat Rangers with. It's a colour and IF it happens to be incorporated into a strip design then so be it.
  19. It would be a downgrade on Waghorn/Garner type striker with no resale value. I wouldn't worry too much, we'll have hundreds of players linked with us but only sign a handful or so.
  20. Would that be your version of an alternative stalker who is having a conversation with someone and then you jump on the thread but cry "stalker" ..........#confused If Diane Abbott did that you'd start a thread on it -------------- Everyone to their own, I don't get the big deal, it's a colour. If it was designed with a purple sash on top of an orange background then I might see something in your point.
  21. Does it ? I don't get the big deal either way, all kinds of designs and colours have been used for away strips. Something bright and luminous would be a change and I think commercially successful. Bottomline is if you don't like it, you don't need to buy it. I don't get the alienation angle.
  22. Generally, away tops tend to have little to do with football.
  23. Interesting and confirms a long overdue counter-offensive.
  24. Iniesta has joined a Japanese club and is reportedly going to be paid the equivalent to over 22M pounds sterling salary per year.
