GTMLivo 149 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Now I know we all want normailty restored and us winning the league again however say it doesn't happen this year what would you guys deem second best? Personally I think second with the Scottish and or league cup would be okay. We need silverware this season it's a must in my opinion. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

left winger 13,978 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Only winning the league could be deemed a success. However, if we won the Scottish Cup and were very close in the league, it would be a decent season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Winning the league. An amazing season is a double/treble. A bad season is not winning the league (even if we win one of the cups) Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
born a blue nose 90,383 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Winning the league by 12-15 points and a trebe. Just winning the league will be good but not overwhelming Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza1212 1,212 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Only a season where we finish as spl champions will be considered successful here at Rangers. Always has been and always will be! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Scottywellhousetb 50,134 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Under no circumstances would I ever entertain finishing second as being okay, cups are a nice wee bonus if won, I want that title and nothing else for me will make this season successful Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 We must win the league for it to be deemed successful IMO. The Scottish and League cup double would be great but the league is absolutely paramount. All focus must be on winning the league and quite frankly if finishing 2nd or worse is deemed successful, at this stage of the season or pre season we'd be as well not bothering. To go into a season, already with mediocrity in the back of your mind is a very dangerous mind frame to be in as you've almost given up before you've started. Have some belief in yourself, your teammates, the management, the club and the fans. If anything other than winning the league is not at the forefront of everyone's minds then the liklihood is it won't be achieved. And if players can't cope with that pressure they shouldn't be here. I appreciate this will not be easy and we will need to raise our game, become tighter, more clinical and more consistent but attitude, focus and belief is very important. If the very worse happens then we can readdress and evaluate at the end of the season but for now anything worse than league champions is unsuccessful IMO.

Fifebear1690 36 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 I understand our proud history and reasons why as a support we expect to win the league but we need to take into account the strange circumstance we find ourselves in ,after what has happened over the past 4 years. We do not have a god given right to win things and circumstances are such that we do not have nearly the budget the Taigs do and are trying to bed in several new players. Surely finishing 2nd in our first year back and hopefully winning a cup would be a good year. Would luv to beat the scum a few times and hopefully get drawn against the HIV's in the Scottish cup.

Prso's headband 34,990 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Honestly? A successful season in the circumstances is winning the league. Anything other than that is failure. I'd be dissapointed if we won both cups and came short in the league Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
LeeWallaceRFC 3,920 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Win the league, couldn't care if we were out in the first round of both the cups (despite no longer being possible). If not the league then a cup double. Wouldn't make up for the league, but at least it'd prove we're capable of winning. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WCPRANGERS1 2,997 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Anything other than winning the league is a failure IMO. We should never just settle or drop out standards. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ger77 742 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 If we get down to the last day with a chance of winning the league, we will have made huge strides forward IMO. Throw in a Scottish cup final win against them or Aberdeen and It would be a really good season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EMRFC 4,756 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Winning the league should be the minimum this year. Also fucking battering them would be a nice add-on. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,524 Posted August 14, 2016 Share Posted August 14, 2016 Winning the league is always the requirement for it to be a successful season. There are different questions though. If you were to ask what was deemed enough for the management to keep their job, it's harder to say. Depends on so many circumstances that we can't see. Minimum of second in the league is an absolute, though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
