Lets All Laugh At Rangers Thread


Recommended Posts

@Nareystoepoker: Rangers have now lost as many league games as Partick Thistle did in the whole season when they won the second tier in 2012-13

Playing the best football I've seen us play.

We did it with a team who's average age was 22 I think. The majority of that squad are still with the club, pushing for a top 6 place.

Pretty much, yep.

The Thistle team that reamed the first division, probably for the same outlay including basic wage and bonuses of one Ally McCoist, while playing exciting and attractive football was as follows;

Scott Fox - released from Celtic, ex Queen of the South, pretty young keeper

Ryan Scully - Youth goalkeeper, brought through the ranks

Stephen O'Donnell - youngster released from Celtic.

Aaron Muirhead - youngster signed from Annan.

Conrad Balatoni - youngster released from Hearts.

Andy Dowie - released from Dunfermline post Admin

Jordan McMillan - released from Dunfermline post Admin

Aaron Taylor-Sinclair - youngster signed for a fairly nominal fee from Montrose and earned himself a move to Wigan in the summer.

Chris Erskine - signed from Kilbirnie Ladeside (Junior side), now at 2nd placed Dundee Utd

Kris Doolan - signed from Auchinleck Talbot (Junior side)

Sean Welsh - youngster released from Hibs

Steven Lawless - youngster released from Motherwell

Ross Forbes - youngster released from Motherwell

Stuart Bannigan - young player brought through Thistle u-19 side, not sure about how long he spent as a youth player with thistle though

James Craigen - youngster spotted playing for his university team

Christie Elliot - signed from Whitley Bay (English lower leagues)

Steven Craig - signed on loan and then signed on his release from Ross County

Mark McGuigan - youngster spotted playing for his university team

May be missing one or two names but that was the core of the side.

250k was our wage budget that season, we won the league using a third of that fat joke's basic salary.

I used to absolutely detest the old club, this new incarnation are just a constant source of amusement though.

Its an absolute shambles of a club. Gone about it entirely the wrong way spending ridiculous and entirely unnecessary amounts of money on uninterested has-beens. On the flip side, Hearts doing it by the book, good coach and a hungry, talented group of young players.

Good to see their brain dead mutant b*****d supporters getting exactly what they deserve, long may it continue.

You probably mean you are crying, being a closet Ger!

It used to be said that many PT fans were actually frustrated Rangers fans, especially during the late 60s, early 70s. Firhill still the place for thrills? You might just see a significant increase in your gates shortly.

What kind of moron would say that, you old eedjit? As has been mentioned many times, there isn't a fucking entrance exam - if you wanted to follow rangers, or celtic, or Partick Thistle, you did.
