AJF Posted August 24 Author Share Posted August 24 (edited) 5 hours ago, Jinky67 said: How utterly ridiculous. Are you honestly suggesting Rangers have watched it take 5 months for Celtic to still not having planning approved and then made a conscious decision to then try get it done in just 4 months when they aren’t even in their own stadium due to other works happening? Really Rangers aren’t, never have been and never will be committed to this and they only applied for planning because they were goaded into it by Brendan Rodgers. So there was no assumption, Rangers hadn’t lifted a finger to move this process until pressed as has now been proven. As I said, Celtic are the ones who have decided to lock fans out the first two fixtures. Own it. ETA: also, as far as your point goes about Rangers “never being committed to this” goes, we offered you an away allocation last season (which you refused). The noises from Celtic have always been “all or nothing” in regards to the allocation. Surprise surprise, there’s a contrived reason to make it nothing. I’ll repeat what I said before: Celtic would’ve came out of this a lot better if they’d given us our allocation. Then, if we failed to do so for the January fixture, they could’ve refused us an allocation for the March fixture at Celtic Park. Instead, they’ve denied us an allocation because they thought we might not be able to say where the game was being played or if works would be done in time for January. Both assumptions now looking a little silly. Edited August 24 by AJF 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Which is quite frankly hilarious because Rangers are complete shambles of a football club from top to bottom. Of course Celtic fans will perform the most absurd mental gymnastics to claim they’re coming out on top here as they just can’t accept the fact they’ve completely cocked this up. They should be furious at their football club. Jinky67 is typing 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hoped so as well after the teams made an agreement last year of 5% in each stadium. Alas, it wasn’t to be as Celtic decide not to honour the agreement. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure why it interests you however, I’ve probably been to Ibrox more frequently than you Probably all of it since you’ve not really given any justification for Celtic not allowing fans. It’s fairly clear Celtic made the decision on the basis that they were guessing that Rangers wouldn’t have the works complete. You say you are using Rodgers comments regarding it as a reference as Celtic’s only public comments. Does that mean we can reference the actual statement made by Rangers that said steps were being taken to ensure the works were completed ahead of the January fixture? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ok then let’s try this another way then as I don’t really care to repeat myself, it’s become tedious however I also don’t want to appear rude and not answer you and justify my opinion as it seems to matter to you Rangers put out a statement and I quote as the wording is important that read “Rangers was taking all steps towards fulfilling that agreement” In your opinion would all steps include applying for planning permission? A simple yes or no suffices Edited September 4 by Jinky67 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

As a coach well it would be churlish to dismiss what he done previously and the number of players who he improved especially McGregor. The expectations of him will be higher than when he left, the squad is better and he will be expected to improve on what Ange built. Let’s see if he’s up to it.
