beermonkey Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I'm more than happy to talk about the internet warriors abandoning their clubs in droves. The sort of broken-promise absence that seen Petrie of Hibs publicly bhegging this very week. And Hearts and Dunfermline unable to pay their wages. Beautifully, I hear on the vine that other clubs are very, very close to crisis states as well. Killie! Killie! Killie! We'll see soon enough. Wrong, but you know that anyway... and for the record, i've no sympathy for any club that were quite happy to take the cash from the SPL closed shop & give the finger to any club who didn't have money to spend. Interesting that this "vine" of yours was eerily quiet when the mighty rangers were going tits up. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I think that's more to do with the monumental chip on your shoulder than anything based in reality. And there's our collective nouns for those not fit to follow The Rangers. A shoulder-chip of plastics, and a bullshit of diddies. Is there a criteria for following football clubs? Can you provide a link to it? I would think that since "Rangers" are such a great institution people would choose not to follow them for other reasons? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 A mixture of kids, foriegn and spl journeymen and we're paying them all £10k per week The P*B motto, if in doubt - make it up Norman and friends won't be happy about mindless drivel like this clogging up the bestest thread in the whole wide world. Shame that. Remind us again, Bennett - who was it said they were all on 10k a week? Yep, not just mindless, but made-up as well. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Beautifully, I hear on the vine that other clubs are very, very close to crisis states as well. Killie! Killie! Killie! We'll see soon enough. The diddies are not abondoning our clubs. The diddies returned to their clubs after their clubs chose the fans over the pressure from those running the game to allow newco straight into the SPL. Obviously for some that would not be enough so they are still staying away. If anything they are away due to the SPL's&SFA's stance of bullying to get their way and the SFL's taking of forty pieces of silver to slip them straight in without following the due process. Don't kid yourself that newco can take any credit for the projected death of football in this country. That was down to Rangers, their death sentence is enough justice to compensate for the loss of a handful of fans. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Agree with you Wizzy, i'd rather we stayed on topic but i'm only one man and can only do so much. You could always, oh I dunno, answer the occasional question like an adult, while treating other posters with a bit of respect. Just a thought. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 The last time we played a Scottish cup game at Ibrox we had 17k at a weekend, so thats 8k (almost 50%) uplift outstanding commitment by our fans Nope. That was Rangers. You are getting mixed up. Have Newco's results been added to Rangers on UEFA.com? you said they would after their next SC match and that would prrovide proof of life after death. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 A so-called 'Killie' fan asking anyone about attendance? Your SPL match doesn't attract 20% of that attained by a 3rd division team and you want to bring this up? That's just made my day. Try that again, with the full original post. Cherry-picking again. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Of course, when the Arabs humped rangers (remember them?), there hadn't been all that pish about "walking away" or "watching from the pavements", had there? Oh, and the Dundee United game was on telly, as well, I believe. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ken Fitlike Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Try that again, with the full original post. Cherry-picking again. I thank 'Rangers' should seek a tie-up with Argentina's Newell's Old Boys. Lots of stars in the crest etc http://www.inthestands.co.uk/wp-content/uploads/2009/10/242px-Newells_Old_Boys_logo.svg_.png 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Perhaps one of our regulars could explain?

stonedsailor Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 No it looks like UEFA have completely ignored the Scottish Cup this year, but then they did not report on the earlier rounds last year either nor have they updated the Dunfermline results, I am sure they are still scraping an existence According to the SFA both games were attended my Rangers F.C. so I would imagine it was Rangers F.C. fans at both games, thought you hold was full on this point ? Have Dunfermline played in the SC this season? That team called.Rangers can only call themselves that because the old Rangers changed their name. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tell you what, Tedi. Just post your original thoughts, and don't ask Google to translate to English. It couldn't possibly make less sense. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Yes you are right it was against SPL opposition and not just 2nd Division opposition, altogether a bigger game that less people turned up for Sevco are better supported than Rangers were? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
thelegendthatis Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Orange walks, how weak you are to throw the old unconnected cliché`s to strengthen your rather pathetic statement, it was however good to pump a guy that calls us orange b*****ds, satisfying indeed But what should happen to the guilty 70 year old who watched a famous football club be fiddled way in front of his eyes? Definitely guilty. Should he be banged up or just disqualified? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

stonedsailor Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 I have had a look for web pages that show information about football clubs looking for ones that back your theory up, ones that show club honours past and present, ones that have been updated Sorry could not find any Did find these though, which seem to disagree with you http://www.scottishfootballleague.com/club/rangers/ http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Rangers_F.C. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/rangers/results The bottom link does not show honours for new Rangers. Wikipedia is not reliable, it just shows the "facts" according to who shouts loudest. The SFL site has to show that to justify the £1M bung for letting newco in. Besides they are not a football authority website, they are a business. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 No idea maybe they go to see football But don't the club at ibrox need all the support they can get from their "loyal" fans? Even at cut-price? Isn't that what "supporter" means? To support, including financially, your team? So why the half-empty ground? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedsailor Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 Rangers F.C. You can find both results on the same page here http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/teams/rangers/results It's easier to say Sevco to distinguish between the two. It saves having to use words like "both" 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
WhiteRoseKillie Posted November 4, 2012 Share Posted November 4, 2012 50% increase from our last home Scottish cup tie and the most supported club in Scottish Domestic Football this year seems like a good example of supporting to me And the increase in gate money? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
