Clockwork Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 23 points clear with 3 games more played. I will be formally declaring Rangers as unofficial league champions either tonight or tomorrow.The fat lady must be warming up with a few notes by now.Scott Brown’s reckless sending off on Wednesday night pretty much summed up what remains of Celtic’s league challenge; an ugly defiance, nothing more. The remnants of any title hopes are palpably forlorn, they have given up. After a noticeable dip recently, an assured display by Rangers this afternoon, also a timely confidence boost for Wednesday’s tricky visit to Easter Road. An eventful trip in recent years!With key players returning however (Ryan Jack was straight back into the mix this afternoon), it’s difficult to see Rangers doing anything but pressing on from here now. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'd leave it until after Wed's trip to E'burgh and, more particularly, when Celtic drop points again. Edit. This is the first time I have seen Tam Culshaw relaxed and happy during a game rather than looking for a square go - so maybe @G51is right: Edited January 23, 2021 by The_Kincardine 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
G51 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 COMUNICADO OFICIAL - 23/01/2021 It's time, folks. I am delighted to confirm that I am unofficially declaring Glasgow Rangers as the 2020/21 SPFL Premiership Champions. That's right. It's done. The journey is over. The nightmares are finished. The Banter Years are history. Mr King's infamous "house of cards" prophecy has come true. James Tavernier, Alfredo Morelos, Connor Goldson and all the lads - you are The Peoples Champions. The players, the backroom staff, the football department - all of you. You will go down in Rangers history forever, as the side who slayed a decades worth of demons and turned what was supposed to be a Celtic procession into a Rangers one. You will be immortalised. The boffins with their calculators may tell you it's not over mathematically, and Celtic could come back yet, but I am here to tell you that this league championship is OVER. It is DONE. There is NO WAY BACK for Celtic. Now some of you might be saying, this is incredibly arrogant, nothing is won yet! The boffins are right! Who are you to say this league is over? Well, I am a gambling man. And I am willing to stake my entire Pie and Bovril reputation on this declaration. I'm that sure of it. Should Celtic come back and win it from here, I will return for one night only to face the music, before retiring from the site FOREVER in disgrace. No second accounts, no nothing. I will fully accept the consequences for calling it wrong, and exile myself forever. The Steven Gerrard Express has (unofficially) reached it's destination. The good news is it does not terminate at this stop, baby. Ladies and gentlemen, I present to you - The jabroni beating, Celtic defeating, trail-blazin', COVID-evadin', all around, smack it down People's Champs, Glasgow Rangers! 4 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

AJF Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 The S*n are reporting we’ve agreed a pre-contract deal for Nnamdi Ofoborh but the article below from The Record claims we’ve also agreed one with Jack Simpson too. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

ScottyDee1893 Posted January 23, 2021 Share Posted January 23, 2021 Ach well it looks like you lads are gonna win the league, thank goodness for that. I say that out of no affection for RFC, I'm just delighted I won't have to listen to this 10 in a row pish for at least 10 years. As someone who will very shortly enter his 7th decade Im hoping it's the last I'll ever hear of it with any luck. 9 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Under Gerrard we are quite good at prodding the ball these days. Should please my old dad, he always told me to support a good proddy team, I am sure this is what he had in mind. 1 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bennett Posted January 24, 2021 Share Posted January 24, 2021 Kai Kennedy on loan at Raith Rovers making a couple of experienced defenders look like mugs, if he keeps this form up then he should be due a chance next season. Got to be an improvement on Barker and Stewart. 2 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Michael Smith is probably one of the top four or five right backs in Scotland, and Kennedy made him look like a bitch. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interested to know the thinking behind this one. Big ask just to keep him fit, above anything else. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
