The time has come for the following -
Mass boycot of all away games time to stand up and fight fire with fire.
PC to replace Wallace as captain with Alves
Sign a decent right back tav cannot defend
Get walker in somehow perhaps offering player plus cash
The hatred from all other teams towards is getting worse. Time to fight back.
The players all need to step up to the plate and deliver. We need to hit the ground running at start of season. A good start is an absolute must.

Boycotting away games will not help the players on the pitch though.

They are professional players playing for Scotland's biggest club and the most successful club in the world. What better incentive to go out and play anywhere? Starving out those who hate us and continue to villify us - it is high time we adopted this approach.

100% agree with away boycott, would also reduce their allocation for ibrox. We need to stand up for our club and hit them were it hurts. Give them nothing . I don't buy into argument that it hurts our team, they are professional and as such should be able to deal with it. I would go a stage further in not buying any players from Scottish clubs but target those who's contracts have one year left and sign on a Bosman with 6 months left. Time to look after ourselves

@gers09 your having a laugh "it's time to look after ourselves" that's what you should have done 15 years ago. You were all blinkered and stuck in Murray's bull that you let your club become a shambles and that's why you will feel victimised, it's time to open your eyes show humility and say we did cheat financially and for that we should be stripped of the trophies rather than wait for others to take them from you. Show the world after years of cheating by your club that the fans want to do the right thing and maybe then you can start getting respect back.

So if we are stripped of titles who do they go to? They can't go to Celtic because we know they were involved in tax avoidance, such as the EBT scheme, and it doesn't matter if you used 1 or 1000, using it is using it.
So do they go to the next team down? Will we need to check every team in the land to see if they've ever been involved in tax avoidance?

Im still in shock there are people still saying we cheated, did we play with 12 players on the pitch?
we used a legal at the time system to loan players money that gets paid back after there death (is my understanding of ebt's)
so the case against rangers is we could not afford 2.7 million a year over 9 years, and that's why we had the better squad.
24 million is the unpaid tax using what was a legal system, which quite a few courts have said so, however the tax office kept going and going till they won.
is it because they hate rangers NO its because they want to get money back from english teams and other big business's
the problem is due to the hate for rangers a lot of people are reading too much into the ebt's, are they fair? is the tax system fair? is life fair?
Did Rangers cheat to win titles NO as even without ebt's we would have had the same top players maybe a few less squad back up players maybe, but then again we might not have.
peace out

@ruddiger the titles get stripped from rangers and become void years they don't get passed down.
Celtic used an ebt for juninho but the difference to rangers is that they saw that this was dodgy and corrected it and paid the required tax rangers didn't, here's a novel idea if the rangers want to keep their titles why don't your current board pay their tax from ebt era to keep your historical titles? Or are you going to say it's not up to us to pay for a liquidated companies history?
@delman it was a legal system at the time if used correctly, rangers have ultimately been found to have used it incorrectly and that's not my opinion that's the supreme court's opinion
08 Jul 2017 09:28:57
Then your team also used the system incorrectly by not declaring it to the SFA. Or does that not count in the grand scheme of things? Would Juninho not have signed if he hadn't been offered an ebt? How bitter and twisted are the supporters of your tainted team who obsess about all things Rangers. I Don't have a clue about your club's transfer activity during this window. Couldn't name any player you have signed. I just don't care. For me, as with you, it is all about The Rangers
