Ethan Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 A good club but a massive majority of s*** fans I hope they survive though
CarraLegend Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 (edited) Christ, it's s*** enough that its a two team league! Now it's one. Edited February 13, 2012 by CarraLegend
Ethan Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 If they go under that league would be a whitewash

stressederic Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 That'll probably end the "title race" in Scotland for this year then.
cliff p Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Can see Celtic trying everything to get into the prem if rangers go to the wall.
Tones Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Funny to see all the Celtic fans celebrating the death of their league. The only times Celtic fill their ground these days is when Rangers come.
Tosh Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Portsmouth looking likely to go into administration again. 10 point penalty and in another relegation scrap if that happens. What a clusterf***
RP Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Jelly and ice cream sales through the roof in Glasgow
BDB Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 They would still be 9 points clear of 3rd place with a 10 point deduction.
Gambit Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 Rangers will not go to the wall. Their debt is *only* £50M, they will be saved some way or another. It's shocking that a club of that size and who regularly pull in 40,000+ supporters at home matches can be struggling so badly. They're paying for their stupid spending back when they were buying up the likes of Gazza and Laudrup.
Cobs Posted February 13, 2012 Posted February 13, 2012 so let Rangers go bust. They reform as AFC Rangers (thatpic makes a mint ). In 4 years they'll be back in the Scot Prem. Meantime we let Pompey go bust. Invite Celtic to take their place. Sectarianism is gone from Scottish Football. Rabbie's yer uncle. Jack & Danny's yer aunt.

Swipe Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 On 14/02/2012 at 09:45, aka Dus said: I dont get the jelly and ice cream thing. Just refers to Celtic fans having a party over the issue doesn't it?
floyd Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 (edited) Rangers have gone officially into administration. I am sure Redknapp must have been employed by them in the past.The HMRC must be loving this Edited February 14, 2012 by floyd

Dmitch Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Bad times! Im sure they will be ok though! Debts not that huge someone will buy them out!
Kop_on Posted February 14, 2012 Posted February 14, 2012 Meanwhile, across town in the East End, the news of Rangers going into administration is met with a dignified silence.
