If ever there was a case for us to boycott all away grounds then this is it. Clubs that hate us have taken our money and us for granted for far too long now, not to mention the SPFL extracting the urine. Keep your cash for better things and make them suffer.

15 Apr 2020 22:11:57
Would u rather compete next season to stop them getting 10 in a row * or would u rather boycott all away games? that's a genuine question i am not at it. Cause that is entirely what that question boils down to.

15 Apr 2020 22:28:15
How will it be ten when they didn’t actually win 9.

15 Apr 2020 22:28:29
Paul it would be 9 3/ 4 in a row 😂.

15 Apr 2020 22:30:45
Agree 100% even old firm away games. Feel for the players and manager not having our massive away support. Give no one the blue pound.

No one should judge you for not going to away games Ferintosh. Your money to do and spend as you please. Just the same as no fans should be judged for fuelling other clubs as we have done for so many years.

Me personal I won’t be going to any away grounds in the country. I’d rather keep the money for my season book and flights, tickets and digs for European games.

15 Apr 2020 23:03:42
Don’t get your point Paul. Of course we compete. We simply unite as a support for once and give nothing to other clubs. No tickets for Ibrox. No taking away allocations or for League Cup games at Hampden. No more stupid behaviour or singing which will be punished more harshly than ever.

I’m not confident all attending games will manage that. The team will be fine at away games if they focus on their job and know they’ll have 51000 fans behind them every game at home. I no longer care about Scottish football or the Scottish game. Rangers only. We must deny every club of income from us. I know this will divide opinion but for me, it’s a must that we take this line.

15 Apr 2020 22:58:39
Ferintosh, yip mate, ive. Been doing it for years,

15 Apr 2020 23:14:24
Boycott celtic hibernian aberdeen motherwell dundee united and their neighbours if they manage to crawl their way up to premiership with a shoddy deal.

15 Apr 2020 23:29:28
Paul, there is nowt we can do mate, i done a big post about this in december, we can't win, unless we win every game by four and five goals, they have everything under control. ,

16 Apr 2020 01:09:45
Alternatively we can go out and hammer teams next year, beat Celtic at least 2 of 4 games, stop coming back from the winter break playing utter gash, win the league fair and square and shut their mouths up once and for all!

16 Apr 2020 08:23:02
Paul, where are you getting nine in a row from? The season ever finished.

16 Apr 2020 08:55:48
And stop going to Dubai might be a good thing, still believe Morelos should have been sold in January, without a doubt, a new focus up front instead of the same thing every single attack, that’s why we were rubbishm he let his head go down out of his personal greed, he should have been punted.

16 Apr 2020 09:11:56
Allocators least there won’t be a winter break this year.

16 Apr 2020 09:26:04
I know it won't be a proper 10 if you read my comment u can see the * beside 10. U cannot ban away fans at ibrox. we can refuse to take away tickets but that will only damage to team on the pitch and cost us points no doubt about it.

16 Apr 2020 09:29:29
We have the best travelling support in the uk. Have no doubt this will continue next season. And hopefully we win a major trophy 1st time in like a decade. Away fans are a must for that. Play them in another cup final. sfa running it do we not take any fans to the final just to stick it to the SFA?

16 Apr 2020 11:45:18
Personally, and as a season ticket holder for over 30 years, follower in Europe and so on, I’d prefer we didn’t take away allocations. Fill Ibrox for every game which we don’t at the moment, fill out the women’s team matches and even age group teams. There must be a way to restrict allowing away fans in. If not, create a way. I admire the following we have (not the behaviour) and love the euro trips. But for me, I won’t ever go to an away game in Scotland or SPFL run cup away game. Some will agree, some won’t. But fill our matches at every level. Of the team are pros, they’ll cope away.

16 Apr 2020 17:03:14
Alloager, look at my post from december mate, even if we brought the liverpool or real madrid team to play out of ibrox as rangers fc the s.p.f.l. And there paid linesmen and refs would make sure we won nowt.

they've been doing it to us since we got back into the top league, nowt will change with liewell and his posse in charge of scottish football, how can youse not see this, .

15 Apr 2020 19:12:00
Charlie austin says he would jump at the chance to play in Scotland with us or them. Would. smash them in up here. Alfredo certain to be away once all this is over. He would be a great replacement for few years. Certainly a step up on shankland or dykes.

15 Apr 2020 20:18:39
I agree that charlie austin would score for fun up here and would be a very good signing for us, but i've got no doubt big lyndon dykes would also be a very good signing for us and offers us something we don't have! As i've said continually on here tell me what's not to like or rate about big dykes? He's got everything in his locker for me, to be a big hit at rangers. I hope we renew our interest in him when the window does eventually open again because there's no doubt there's already a good few clubs interested in signing him, make sure its us!

15 Apr 2020 21:34:51
SGL i agree dykes is decent does throw himself about and would likely also see few reds. Been a hothead since he played in New Zealand. But i heard he's just so eager to do well and sometimes over does it tackle wise. wouldn't score near the amount of Austin. Wages could be issue there i guess. Surely the gaffer must take notice of his come and get me plea.

15 Apr 2020 22:35:05
Dykes would be redcarded more than Alf for sure if he was playing for Rangers where the expection would be to score every game. Not for me thanks.

15 Apr 2020 22:58:13
S.g.l, Yea mate, i also like big dykes, i think he would be a good addition.

16 Apr 2020 08:09:52
Where we getting the money for all these signings.

16 Apr 2020 09:02:27
Austin has been going downhill for a long time, and has maybe been informed he won’t be seeing many offers coming at his age and condition, thus the old firm link, pension pot, ridiculous, not what rangers want at all,

16 Apr 2020 09:46:34
Get Dykes before price goes up. We were slow on Shankland. Get him signed. One of two strikers for Morelos.

16 Apr 2020 11:16:20
Its a no brainer for me The Colonel,
we have to get big dykes signed before he's snapped up by another club. We should have signed the big guy in january, yes in front of kamberi imo! Nobody can answer my question ie. tell me what's not to like or rate about lyndon dykes? 🤔.

15 Apr 2020 19:08:50
Understand UEFA are deeply embarrassed by this mess, the behaviour of the SPFL and considering their options. The issue has received a great deal of bad publicity in the world sporting press.

15 Apr 2020 19:45:08
uefa don't take to do with domestic football its up to there own leagues how they run them.

15 Apr 2020 21:29:16
Do you ever have anything positive to say BBB? Every post I have read from you throws proverbial cold water over everything. are you sure you are on the correct site?

15 Apr 2020 22:36:12
Totally agree with you seeker. Never seen him post anything positive. Always negativity on his part.

16 Apr 2020 09:07:02
Sorry but how do you know EUFA are “ Deeply Embarrassed?

I find that a strange quote, who is it in EUFA who is deeply embarrassed?
If you don’t mind me asking mate, I just think EUFA probably look at Scottish football sitting on the bog with nothing else to read, ,

16 Apr 2020 09:48:33
Be positive triple B.

15 Apr 2020 17:43:05
When we won 9 titles you numpties where calling it the mickey mouse league all of a sudden it's the best thing since sliced bread go boil yer heed bro.

15 Apr 2020 18:00:19
How could it be the Mickey Mouse league when Rangers were paying one of the highest wage bills in Britain.
The problem Celtic had was:- A Rangers player on £20k a week was walking home with £18k because the majority was not getting taxed.
A Celtic Player on £20k a week was walking home with £12k a week.
Unless you were a Celtic die hard which club would footballers choose to play for.

15 Apr 2020 18:21:32
You even know rangers wage bill from 20+ years ago? Bloody hell 😂.

15 Apr 2020 18:26:45
Perhaps Celtic could have used a legal EBT scheme, oops they did!

15 Apr 2020 18:27:35
Well why did you Not pay the players more when there were 40000 fans in your stadium and your tannoy announcer had the brass neck to announce an attendance of 19500?

15 Apr 2020 18:30:06
yes that's why lennon got his collar felt from the taxman because he was so honest, you buzzbomb are one muppett.

15 Apr 2020 18:50:47
For as long as I have lived, cfc never ever reported the true amount at home gates - I do not know if this has changed, but it was the norn in the east end of Glasgow for many decades. This was known by every one. What was done about it - nada!

15 Apr 2020 19:02:32
I would ALWAYS choose to play for Rangers!

15 Apr 2020 19:11:22
Buzz bomb, Celtic players were classed as self employed and had to look after their on affairs. Now if you think these players paid all their tax then I’m afraid you’re as green as the hoops on your top.

15 Apr 2020 19:26:24
Celtic also used EBT's. I remember the SPL investigating them because Juniniho had one. Further Celtic emoloyees to have used EBT's whilst at the club; Lawell, O'Neil, Lennon, Caldwell, Sylla, Peta, Sutton, Hartson, Varga, Thomson, Mjallby. all organised through the same financial advisor. Only difference was Rangers put it in the contract whereas Celtic advised the players when signing that they could set one up through their advisor. I think the main reason players signed was because we are a far superior club not the money, stay safe!

15 Apr 2020 21:32:22
And don't even mention the movie investments.

15 Apr 2020 22:41:28
so cfc's problem was taxation. just gets better.

15 Apr 2020 22:54:44
Juninho was the only case of EBT being used at club and was quickly rectified.

15 Apr 2020 17:27:08
A few posting to say otherwise but unless i'm mistaken the SPFL is a Private limited company PLC and listed on companies house. Its also call itself a company with the 42 clubs as share holders in the its own rules and regulations. It has to follow statutory rules and regulations under the companies act.

15 Apr 2020 17:33:46
Fair play. I’ve not looked into it, too busy just now, if u r right they then need to follow certain rules.

15 Apr 2020 17:50:55
Hi John wasnt trying to point score, had to check myself and it was out of hope more than anything. The more rules and regulations they have to follow the more chance they have fallen foul and will be severely punished along with any collaborators.

15 Apr 2020 17:51:00
Hi Guys, it's being stated in the press that Dundee submitted a Yes Vote this afternoon, paving the way for the SPFL to call the leagues as they stand. My question is, where is our Team with their evidence, or, are they just going to go with the flow, I sincerely hope not. It is amazing that the SPFL appear to be carrying on as usual with no regard for what's being said of them, this is an unprecedented situation in my lifetime, I don't know what is true or otherwise to be honest.

15 Apr 2020 18:29:23
Irvger, they are dangling hope in front of Hearts by including Ann Budge in 'reconstruction' plans.
Reconstruction, new League Celtic start at 1? Maybe.

15 Apr 2020 19:04:23
John25, as far as aware SPFL is a company, believe it’s regulations refer to its Chief Exec as Chief Executive of the Company and compliance with 2006 Companies Act.

15 Apr 2020 19:08:49
We have to press on with this as we have made the accusations. So help me I'll scream if they go all wishy washy and drop it.

15 Apr 2020 19:54:53
Tjbb I know u r not point scoring. U have too much class for that.

15 Apr 2020 21:17:52
Seeker, I'm in agreement with you on this, Rangers now need to come out with the information they spoke about. I personally think that there will be no relegation, and, promotions will take place down the leagues, it'll be interesting to see how the Clubs who won't get a play off in this situation react.

15 Apr 2020 14:28:31
Title 1 = no competition title 2 = no competition title 3 = no competition Title 4 = no competition give your the next 4 as we were actually in it title 9 * = awarded = if you guys are so proud of that you are more disillusioned than I thought 💩.

15 Apr 2020 17:11:25
Best manager in English football, sir Alex Ferguson so when he packed it in the following managers who won the league all say you know what I don’t accept it as fergie wasn’t there so no competition? 😂 honestly are you for real? How many years did it take you to win the petrofac cup? And did you win promotion from the championship at the first try? Geez peace.

15 Apr 2020 17:13:08
Laudrup, look at these numbers, 20, 16, 29, 17, 15, 30, 9, and 9. That is the margin by which Celtic have won the league the past 8 seasons. You were there for the 20, the 30 (where you were actually 39 behind), the first 9 (where you were 12 behind) and last season's 9.

Currently you between 10 and 13 points behind with 8 games to go. Arguably Aberdeen give us more competition over that time period than you do in that they have been second in two of the three seasons since your promotion. Motherwell were closer with 16 than you were in 2012 and 2017. It's rather assumptious to believe you gave us any more "competition" than anyone else. I don't know if we're disillusioned but if I was you I'd be embarrassed with those pitiful stats.

Meantime as I've said before Allan Wells won Moscow gold in a time that wouldn't get him near the final now, do you dispute you can only beat what is put in front of you? Or is your arrogance of such a level that if you aren't in it then it doesn't count? Third question, can you really describe being 39 points behind including being cuffed 5-1 home and away as any form of competition?

15 Apr 2020 17:34:28
When celtic won 9 in a row rangers were second seven times, when rangers won 9 celtic were second twice.

15 Apr 2020 19:29:00
So will Real Madrid not count 4 champions league wins because Rangers weren’t in it? 😂😂😂. Some of You lot are so deluded it’s unreal!

15 Apr 2020 21:35:29
And you lot are so obsessed with everything Rangers, it is deeply, deeply unhealthy. How are the lawsuits coming along then?

15 Apr 2020 22:56:42
Laudrup, I've never seen it before, the first four comments, brilliant mate.

15 Apr 2020 11:55:04
Reading now that the rangers proposal is back on the table at the SPFL
They are now pushing league reconstruction .
The rules would need to be changed as fir that to happen it takes overall majority meaning only one club allowed a no vote .
Hope UEFA just shut all the leagues down end of story . something they should have done 4 weeks ago.
