so david murray was right and we should all say sorry for going nuts?

i'd say if ally mccoist thinks that a first managerial spell at a club the size of rangers is a good move, he's probably not cut out to be a manager. you've got to get actual first person experience.

some of the rumours are excellent. would love us to gain some fresh impetus in something like this though.

did you see the "catholics are better at football" on the other side?

Do they have any more variations on what should be a simple 6 letter word ?
you're just being harsh mate - they have it harder than us. 'e' and 'r' are right next to each other on the keyboard, that's how we manage it
it's so great to be champions again.

we should have an orange 'tango' cup final to celebrate. that would do their nut in.

still think big changes are needed at the club; hopefully success and the rekindling of the passions will be a better catalyst than the despair and anger had we lost.

his pain's poetry. drink in his bitterness.
poor use of english, and preaches his liberal ideologue diatribes as though he were a sermon. he's so petty. it's great

his samaras comment was telling; that was definitely discussed in the dressing room

poor judgement, been punished, everyone gets on with their lives. how nice would that be.

i agree ian, though the cumulative total of points denied that can be directly assigned to poor decisions is pretty shocking. but that's part of the game, and you've got to have enough in reserve to compensate for bad luck and incompetency if you want to win a league. i just hope they have it in them. i remember on the apprentice sir alan sugar used to go on about how he needed 'closers' to bring deals to conclusions. i get worried our teams lack of experience in winning leagues puts celtic in a better 'closers' position. you know strachan'll be saying 'ah they've never won a league, you're the champions - you wont be slipping up etc'. we just need to win, and try and score a few goals, to keep the pressure on them, because they are the poorest champions in recent history.

i think we'll win. would be extremely suprising if the historical trend was broken. i do hope we play an attacking formation though.

not much to 'study' by the looks of it, open and shut if it actually gets there. if i were the referee i wouldn't want to say that i'd seen it but chose to ignore it.

Although we Rangers fans would never sink to as low a lifeform as those Celtic fans, i feel it's good to show the world just what they are all about, especially when the maker of that video must be feeling like a prize arsehole this morning
that's assuming they can have real human feelings
:cheers:

if he'd wore a confused mixture of pope and palestine he'd have got away with it.

1 - 0 us (maybe 1-1,
). can't see it being high scoring, can't see any team walking it. hopefully we can rise to the occassion and storm it. i'm just nervous.

A Rangers legend is an exclusive club, and bears never forget their legends. Does he want to be a legend or just another in a long line of strikers?
i hope there are people at the club whose job it is to keep this in the forefront of people's minds. the possibility of greatness is really what you want to be motivating your players.

He got far too much abuse at Ibrox from his own supporters, as seems to be the case with our youth players coming through the ranks, and that of course puts even more pressure on him.
this has always puzzled me. do you think it's just ibrox this happens at?

"Celtic devote a lot of resources to their reserve team, so for us to challenge them for so long is a credit to the players here.
Not sure what he means by that quote ?
that one stuck out for me too. wonder what he means.
eta: scrap that, read johnny's post. he must mean that reserves are for getting first team players fit. you think, though, that the chance to keep against teams at a higher level would get more of the youngsters playing there more quickly.

what division is he playing in?

to be fair to celtic, ignoring the paper shit-stirring, they're only asking for an explanation as to how the fixtures get drawn up. it seems quite baffling. i'd quite like to know myself.

They may be deluding themselves, but it doesn't mean that they don't believe it.
just because i beleive i'm the king of england doesn't justify me going around asking peasants to kiss my ring.
i'm not one for the if-they-believe-in-their-hearts-they're-doing-good-its-not-right-to-contradict school. same thinking justifies the twin towers, and takings for PIRA in pubs in maryhill.
We may have to agree to disagree on this one.i guess so, but it doesn't seem seem we disagree on that much to be honest. the only difference is you entertain the delusions of rangers supporters in a way you don't celtic supporters, and i think if we take that approach that opens us all up to charges of hypocrisy. i don't like this trend - i think if we start buying bullshit justifications, or entertaining delusions, we'll become just like them. who knows, maybe death threats to nacho novo is a legitimate act of war in defiance of unjust oppressors? so long as they believed it....
as ever where there's difference of opinion, worth pointing out that it's all just opinions. not stuff that really matters in the grand scale of things.

Surely you can't generalise and say 50,000+ people behave in a certain way for one singular reason?
of course you can. you get at motivation from context. people interested in righting social wrongs don't sing songs at football games. people who say they are doing this are either liars or deluded. there's no other options.
singing it isn't getting back at any injustice, no matter what people feel in their hearts, so it leaves only a few options. they're singing it because it's fun (my preferred reason, the one i think best gets at the nature of football crowds, not sacrificing honesty to grab an imaginary moral high ground), or because they think they are addressing social injustice (in which case they're deluded, or they're giving a reason that isn't truthful).
i dont believe it when celtic fans say they sing 'fuck the pope and davie cooper' as a decleration of autonomy from britain, and i dont believe it when rangers fan say they sing bjk to redress social ills. i cant make myself believe it, because it's not true.

I've come across people who say they are using it as a way of getting back at what they perceive as unfair treatment and have no reason to doubt that they are being truthful.
i do because it's nonsense. people who think you get back at unfair treatment by singing songs at football games are, if not liars, deluded. the reason for this song isn't unfair treatment, and it doesn't going any way towards addressing any unfair treatment; anyone who entertains that argument are deluding themselves, imho.

cant believe people want naismith gone, after getting no time or games to return from injury.
