TheBalls 25 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 If as expected, we win div 3, 2 and 1 to get back into the SPL (although I still think the league will be restructured and we'll be in SPL2 or nearer the top flight before then), would these be added to the 54 titles?So by the time we get to the SPL would we have 57 titles or do folk only really see the top flight titles as ones to add to the number?

TheBalls 25 Posted July 26, 2012 Author Share Posted July 26, 2012 YesJust depends really.If there is one then it would have to be a yes, but then if there isn't then it would be no.There is always the fact that it could be very difficult to tell either way because getting concrete stuff down is increasingly difficult, this is in spite of the advancement of technology in the last few years.

Ozblue 4,331 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 Why would we count Div. 3,2,1, as "Titles" when they are won in a lesser competition ?....The mhanks on the other hand count titles gained during the war years and have no fucking shame doing it.......Let's just count our titles the Rangers way.

scarkev 3,540 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 As much as I realize this is a wind up, I'll take the bait....You can only win what league you are in, so in terms of league titles won of course it would be 57.

Sorry sir but you seem to be counting 'our' future titles the 'bheggar' way . . . a title is a title and to me it is not any 'lesser' as you put it.If we are back in 3 years it'll be 57 FACT!

Again the obsession with us from timothy is embarrassing.It's not a wind up, it's a genuinefucking question and at the time of posting it's 50/50.You want a 6th star on the shirt for 60 titles including 3 from lower divisions?

I say it'll be 57You are quite correct that the SPL will be a lesser compertition and that indeed the tarriers will claim it with glee. I can see the point of us adding these titles up if we win them, but as I said to the other poster, it all a matter of opinion.....And when it comes to the crunch, it's what the club decides that is the one that will determine how many titles we have earned.....Whetever the club says, I'll be happy to go along with it.

Bakbear 3,563 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 The 54 league titles we have won to date are 54 of the top division in our country. Winning the 3rd division is not to be compared to winning the top division. It is just another competition. If we win the UEFA cup then we will not put a star on our jersey akin to if we win the European cup, if a nation wins the European championship they do not wear a star as if they had won the World Cup.Each of our stars represents 10 occasions on which we demonstrated that we were the best team in our own country. Winning the 3rd Division does not demonstrate this no matter how much we know it to be true :-)I look forward to 60 but it will not be achieved in the next 6 years Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SammyEnglish 48 Posted July 26, 2012 Share Posted July 26, 2012 I'll be counting them all. You can only win the league that you're playing in and i think it would be disrespectful to dismiss a title that the manager and players have worked so hard for to win.
