Wallace resigned/walked out on his post, he certainly wasn’t ‘poached’ with an agreed compensation deal from Filbert Street. Not identical, but certainly no less valid than the suggestion that this reflects badly on Scottish football. Players and managers have pretty much always been tempted away from even our biggest clubs to England. Now of course when the financial disparity is colossal, there's nothing remotely surprising or disparaging about it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Man united a big club to be fair. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mind you, he claimed lots of shite in his book. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cerberus Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Celtic winning 10 in a row at Ibrox with Lennon as manager would be the best thing to happen in Scottish football since Craig Whyte found a pound coin down the back of his sofa. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted February 27, 2019 Share Posted February 27, 2019 Gonna assume that's No8/Bob back [emoji38] Was my thoughts too. Since he is desperately trying to instigate an arguement where he intends to blame Neil Lennon for being abused, it will thankfully be only a matter of time before the loser gets punted. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Drew Brees Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 With most neutral observers recognising that at LEAST four of them are pretty much worthless. Four!!! You think rangers would’ve made a difference yet It took them 4 seasons to get out the 3 lower leagues. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rangers dont have to be the team in second place in order to give a Celtic title validity. So aye, a line of thought exclusively for idiots. 6 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Monkey Tennis Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 This worthless idea is amusing. Of course all OF titles in the modern context are utterly hollow, whether we're talking about those when Rangers kept winning them successively because of massive financial advantages, or now when Celtic do. Utterly hollow and of significance only to those with a want of wit. The Rangers ones this century of course have the added issue of being genuinely tainted, as football rules were systematically broken in 'winning' them. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
RedRob72 Posted February 28, 2019 Share Posted February 28, 2019 There's really not much more of a title race now than when Rangers were in the bottom tier tbh. So more than four then!!? And here’s me thinking I was trying to be just and reasonable. But fair enough I’ll take your word for it, last two have also been worthless! Let’s be honest though, like it or not, a real challenge to their ‘dominance’ isn’t going to happen until Rangers are truly back on their feet. Most punters without an axe to grind would acknowledge that. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
