Rangers fans, or at least those with an element of humility and common sense, accepted months ago that their club needed to start life again from the bottom tier of Scottish football playing their way back to the SPL and paying their dues. The conduct of those running the old Rangers, and the debts they accrued disgusted me thoroughly. Everyone involved should be punished to the full extent of the law.

No, Rangers fans were bitter, that they were targeted, all delusional, and they were going down to spite rest of scottish football.

i have never heard of any rangers fans admitting their club have done wrong.

That is why most other fans dislike rangers. i say that having had conversations with other fans of scottish clubs at my work. All recognise that rangers have never admitted they should be punished, merely that they seem to think they are being punished for doing nothing wrong

Rare as teeth on a hen

They are the people and anc actually believe it.... so full of themselves that they're happy to fund anybody who fuels that belief.

For those who spell out the truth and try to enlighten them there's usually physical violence or the threat of..... 36 journalists can testify to that.

SFL clubs propose new three-tier league system in Scotland

http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/20329684

The 30 Scottish Football League clubs have unanimously voted to propose a new three-tier league structure of 16, 10 and 16 teams for season 2014-15.

Its top-flight would be called the Premier Division, the second the Championship and the third would be called the First Division.

The plan involves a merger between the SFL and the Scottish Premier League.

SFL chief executive David Longmuir's plan would require agreement from the SPL and the Scottish FA.

Following a meeting at Hampden, the SFL is also proposing a new format for the Scottish League Cup based on a seeding system similar to the Champions League.

I know no gaelic either but you can still make out the players names, etc.

It still makes more sense than some of the English speaking commentaries..... and you don't have to listen to Craig Burley's ill-informed guff.

Lassad could do with some time on the field. It's just as well we've got a reasonable squad the amount of injuries we've been picking up.

I reckon we'll get a draw. There wasn't much between the two teams at Parkhead and the pressure is on Benfica to get a win. We could even sneak it on the break..... or we could lose an early goal and get hammered.
One things for sure....

.... we only know that there's gonna be a show and the Glasgow Celtic will be there...

[Henkesghost]

Would bite your hand off for a draw
