Up against teams worth tens of millions of pounds rolleyes.gif

The Greek team at the Euros was worth 'millions and millions of pounds' still a shock when they went to the final and won it.


So what did you mean by "Rangers UEFA Cup run was brilliant with the squad they had" then? You are admitting that they are pish?

A mediocre side, not everything falls into 'pish' and 'amazing' you know.

If you had said at the start of last season Rangers would be in the hunt for 4 trophies, and take them all to the last game people like you would have burst out laughing, and taunting.

UEFA Cup final for a squad like that was remarkable.

Mediocre and pish are pretty much the same thing huh.gif

Aberdeen were in the hunt for 4 trophies last season at one point too, means absolutely fuck all. Of course people would laugh and taunt you, you just admitted yourself that the team was "mediocre" huh.gif

Mediocre is average, not 'pish'. A team with Broadfoot, Weir, McCulloch, Adam, Dailly, Cousin, JCD is mediocre. And Aberdeen were not in the hunt for 4 trophies up until the last game of the season at all, they weren't even in the position to win one.

Yet these players all costs millions and millions of pounds huh.gif

It's much the same thing, we were in for 4 trophies last season. Do you get some sort of special recognition now for "almost" winning something?

The UEFA Cup final last season ring any bells? Or Celtic doing it 5 years ago?

Rangers and Celtic are the only two teams who will ever carry the game forward in Europe.

Why did Rangers and Celtic end up in the UEFA cup again?

Oh that's right, they both FAILED in the CL.
It takes you both two cracks at Europe a season to reach finals, not much to "craw" about.

Never heard of being runners up? You don't get anything for getting papped out in the semi finals like Aberdeen. For that you get nowt.

Motherwell could have 100 shots and never do it, I'd have given them 5 more shots at Nancy and they still would have failed.

The UEFA Cup final was a great achievement, none of your pish takes that away.

In your opinion

Of course.

As for the CL/Uefa cup format, it isn't Rangers who implemented it, they still had to beat good teams to get to the final though.
