Only a non-football person or a Celtic hater could compare Rangers all out defence against the likes of Panathiniakos with the display of Neil Lennon's men against the team that is widely regarded as the best in the world.

It was the class of Barca that pushed Celtic back - not by adopting Uncle Walter tactics. Celtic began with 2 up front whereas the only offensive thing about Rangers in Europe was the behaviour of their bigotted fans.

How's that working out for them then?

In their dreams. Funnily enough the actual attendance figures at games this year has been consistently 10k or so below the reported figure. Even for 3PM Saturday games not on TV they are lucky if Snake Mountain is half full.
Snake Mountain? Don't know where that is. The only snakes I'm aware of in Glasgow are those slithering over the corpse of your former club.

You haven't answered yet Deek? How many shares are you in for

Are you going by official Strathclyde Police figures? Chucky Green's wild estimates from the Bigotdome don't bear up to comparison with those
