Come on children... let's stop with the 'we're bigger than you' stuff.

At the end of the day, Rangers played well - and we were awful. Yes it was only a pre-season friendly, and yes the game was ultimately meaningless, but even so - Moyes was clearly miffed after the game. He was expecting better.

And I agree... the comment from Skandi Brudson was quite patronising.

You wonder if we knew about JL on Tuesday. Perhaps why we played so poorly. Moyes very unhappy and Rice straight down tunnel.

Either way we need a reaction against Luton

Jesus, if we beat Real Madrid in a meaningless pre-season friendly, I wouldn’t expect their fans to think we were a bigger club than them. I’ll leave it there.

Rangers were always the team I feared before each knockout draw.

If we look at European success, we have both won the cup winners cup... and that is it... how credible are the countless titles they have in what is largely viewed as a two team league?
The Scottish League used to be good. Celtic won the European Cup and Dundee United and Aberdeen were forces for a while. Now money rules everything, but you used to have good sides there. Celtic and Rangers were signing big players as recently as the Advocaat/O'Neill days.

not digging you out mate, but you know how they signed those "big players"

overpaid wages which in fact were in the terms of "loans" which never had to be paid back.

now I looked up the word "loan" in the dictionary and couldn't find ANY definition whereby it said loans should never be paid back.

an amount of money that is borrowed, often from a bank, and has to be paid back, usually together with an extra amount of money that you have to pay as a charge for borrowing

I take it you are talking Rangers as Celtic never had financial issues. To be fair, they used a tax loophole. They could probably have serviced the debt without going bankrupt as they were likely overcharged. But Murray played a stupid game with Rangers and it cost him a fortune.

yes of course Rangers.

and they found a judge like the one who found us guilty, of finding them un-guilty.

:crylol:

however they DID get relegated to the bottom of the bottom league, but with the players that they had........was like playing men against bhoys.

Thing is, the original Rangers is dead. They have kind of allowed the new club to become the old one but it isn’t the same.

Rangers fans are still "giving it large" / celebrating the win on various WH-related social media, so they obviously see this as one of their biggest scalps in some time

Utter bollox as usual.
In fact we're probably more dead than Rangers.
They have the same ground, the same fan base and history.
More than we have these days
