Monkey Tennis Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 11 hours ago, thepundit said: There's a simple explanation. Celtic were spending just enough to be better than the teams around them at that time. (albeit when Rangers and Celtic were pushing each other in the seasons prior there was cup wins for Dundee Utd, Kilmarnock and Hearts) Indeed. Competition was much healthier when the OF duopoly was broken. Since its restoration, the stronger part has been able to exert a stranglehold. Not only does having the sides back together fail to be good for Scottish football in the way we get told it is. It's actually actively bad for it. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I actually respected Hearts, Dundee Utd and Kilmarnocks cup wins more than the teams who've won trophies since Rangers started in the third division. I think it's better for Scottish football if Rangers and Celtic are as strong as they can possibly be and other teams are still winning trophies. Shit, some of those sides lack your respect? They'll need to have a rethink about having celebrated those trophies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I’m sure that you think that, but as every person not afflicted by the Celtic or Rangers illness knows, a strong Celtic and Rangers is better for Celtic and Rangers only. Utter tripe to suggest otherwise, as it makes absolutely no sense. 3 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Your lack of a counter argument suggests you did too.

Dons_1988 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Is it arrogance or just delusion that makes rangers fans think anyone outside of their club gave a second thought to rangers lower league predicament whilst winning trophies. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
mylothedog Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I put it up to celebrate Netta Barzila's Eurovision win. Amazed that you try and connect 'Protestant' and 'Israeli' - especially since not all Jews are Zionist and not all Zionists are Jews and neither have anything to do with Protestants. Is there an issue that you'd like to raise? Fair point. I'm sure that you do the same every year, and this isn't just more bullshit on your part. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ken Fitlike Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 The cups have been easier to win since Rangers started in the Third Division. That's just a fact. No. It is an opinion. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bairnardo Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 Great achievement either way. However, nothing wrong with believing it was a better achievement when the other clubs won trophies when Rangers and Celtic were pushing each other. The cups have been easier to win since Rangers started in the Third Division. That's just a fact. Again, taking nothing away from the likes of Aberdeen. Rangers, like everyone else, have no divine right to compete in any given league or cup. There is absolutely no conversation to be had regarding the validity of Celtics titles, or anyone elses cup wins. Plenty people wont like that, but its a completely undisputable truth. As a matter of fact, the only trophies worthy of any discussion re being tainted are the ones won by a club found to be paying players they couldnt afford through the back door. Now I am not saying I want to discuss that, but again, its a fact.I get where you are coming from and I understand why its a commonly held viewpoint among Scotlands lickspittle media and brainwashed fans. It really is simple though. Every title and every cup won since 2012 was contested fair and square. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
