dirty dingus Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 As the snow blew and the transfer winda banged shut and the speculation (whoring) over Alfies made up £13m move to China came to a surprising end, a tear was shed in South Africa and in Robert Grieves living room. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 The gap between 1st/2nd in various european leagues; England-13 pts Germany-19 pts France-14 pts Holland-7 pts Spain-7 pts Italy- 4 pts Scotland- 6 pts As far as title races go, ours is about as close as it gets, aside from Italy. When you consider that Rangers have been chronic for 75% of the season, and we've suffered from religiously motivated refereeing in a few games, we could and should be much closer. Add that to the fact we currently look unplayable, and I think it's possible. Goss is absolutely strolling it, Docherty is looking like a future Scotland captain, Morelos is thriving since he's had the threat of Cummings replacing him and Windass can't stop scoring. We almost bodied the unwashed at Christmas with half of this current team. Two victories against them and the title will be back at its rightful home. The pressure is all on them. The very worst that should happen is, a Scottish cup win, a single digit loss in the title race, and Aberdeen firmly put back in their diddy box. If Murty achieves all this, the job will be deservedly his. You really are a disgusting bigot. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

In Rangers' absence they brought in millions of pounds worth of transfer fees. Where did all that money go? I'm not gloating. I think the league is better with them than without and always enjoy the games against them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
nsr Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 10 hours ago, WeWereThePeople said: Off the top of my head, better sponsorship, better tv deal, higher profile for Scottish football. In theory, there should also be a trickle down effect for the lower leagues. Having 2 strong teams should also benefit the national team. Clubs need to move away from relying on TV money to keep them going. Who cares what sort of "profile" Scottish football has? All of these things benefit the Filthy Bigotwhores disproportionately more than they benefit anyone else. There is literally no difference between now "Celtic will win the league" and previously "Celtic or Rangers will win the league" because Celtic were Rangers and Rangers were Celtic. They're two halves of the same arse that do everything together, share everything together and will only ever do what benefits each other. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The manager also took his cut. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The one thing that everyone - but Kris Boyd apparently - can be sure of, is that Dundee United's difficulties and Rangers' absence, are utterly unrelated. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

All absolutely true, but what's also true is that even in the silly narrow terms the Rangers fan imposed, Scottish football did not lose out when the duopoly was broken. There are no ways in which its rebirth is good for Scottish football. None. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

There are no ways in which its rebirth is good for Scottish football. None. This is true. I was unpleasantly surprised that one of my new work colleagues, a Newcastle fan, seemed to have bought into the idea that having "Rangers" "back" in the top flight was a good thing. I notice it's not just restricted to here though. Italy seems to be the only big league in Europe with anything resembling a title race this year, and that's only because Napoli have put together an incredible run. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The sad thing is that it doesn't sound that surprising. Unless he is fascinated by the subject and has taken a close interest, he'll make the same lazy, mindless assumptions that fools like Alex Rae do on the radio, or that our friend on here did with his 'off the top of my head' drivel. The myth that we all somehow benefit from having two massive clubs dominating, is remarkably resilient. Fans of the clubs concerned like it for obvious reasons, but the suggestion that it's good for the wider game bears no scrutiny whatever and it needs challenged each time it staggers to its flimsy feet. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dons_1988 Posted March 1, 2018 Share Posted March 1, 2018 The sad thing is these idiots take their opinion from the views of those down South. People who would barely bat an eyelid if Scottish football didn't exist at all try and lecture us on what is good for us. Then 'Rangers men' in the media regurgitate it as gospel. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As you’ve a team full of catholics, Declan’s, Sean’s and Docherty’s I can only assume those proddy refs hate you as much as the rest of us. How did you find out the religion of the Rangers players? Is there a website or something? Edited March 1, 2018 by Amato72 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don't see why Aberdeen can't take points off Celtic or rangers when hibs and killie can do it,for me the duopoly is a myth. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

If it's going to change Aberdeen need to start winning games against the Glasgow clubs they have proved this season they can be consistent against the rest. i was talking about the last 7 years,if teams are going to improve now is the time. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
