For me it was tit for tat. A lot of the other clubs supporters wanted us voted out the league. A lot of our supporters felt going to the 3rd division would screw them over and they would struggle without us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah the SPL wanted us in the 1st division but the other teams said no. SPL did want leagues stripped as part of transferring our license over so we could play 3rd division and not have to reapply for entry. slimjim1690 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SpidermansGaffer 2,552 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 As Tannerall said - were they really that blinded with their hate for the most successful team in the world, that they actually couldn't see the big picture?? Get rid of Rangers & you wee diddy clubs will have more chance to win stuff right?? Eh...no. All it actually means is you all get a chance at gloating at the BIG team that's been pumping you all for the last 140 odd years, whilst the other big team that's actually been pumping you all too has a straight run at title after fucking title & champions league money. I'm actually surprised it's not been a Quadruple Treble btw. They all thought we'd walk away. They all thought we'd wither & die. They all assumed that we wouldn't be back. What they didn't bank on was the words that bind this club & support together. Loyalty, Integrity & Strength. We. Are. Back. & they fucking know it.

bluechip 359 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 In my humble opinion, these clubs listened to the Romans in their respective supports and the other dumb f***s just followed suit. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since we first went into admin: Kilmarnock won the League Cup (first trophy in 15yrs) Hearts won the Scottish Cup St Mirren won the League Cup (first trophy in 25yrs) Aberdeen won the League Cup (first trophy in 19yrs) St Johnstone won their first ever Scottish Cup ICT won their first ever Scottish Cup (& major honour) Ross County won their first ever major honour hibs won the Scottish for first time in 114 year As much as I'd like to agree with you in believing these clubs will be regretting their decision, chances are they won't and many of those clubs have been rewarded for it.

BILLYBOY50 1,638 Posted May 19, 2018 Share Posted May 19, 2018 I agree with you one and all in a couple of the old firm games if we had taken our chances and defended better we could have beaten them. And we probably had the worst most gutless players I have seen in a blue jersey for many a year. Hopefully once the manager addresses the defence and brings in strikers that will take their chances we will at last get some joy against the dirty tarrier pedo bastards.

DariuszAdamczuk 548 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 I hate anyone who’s not us. I only used to really properly hate the tims and Falkirk but now it’s every cunt, I’m from Falkirk and 99% of their up their own arse fans are rhancid but now they’re just one of countless teams here I despise Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ZZed 4,510 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 They actually thought more people would turn up at their grounds to watch them play and that we would desert Rangers when we went into Div 3. They were wrong on both counts because they were blinded by hate, to the reality of how real people would react. And, they are still blinded by hate and have imagined outcomes based on nothing but their own hateful wishful thinking. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bigdave30 8,671 Posted May 20, 2018 Share Posted May 20, 2018 How else did the clueless cunts really see it working out? Since we went down, hearts, hibs and Dundee Utd all had a wee trip to the championship (thankfully Dundee Utd are still there ) and Aberdeen managed to finish a close 2nd one time to the fucking worst celtic team in my living memory. Fucking great success Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Most thought we had to take our medicine even when at that point the legal battle regarding the EBTs was in its infancy. Crazy stuff by us but it’s been a perfect storm for the pedos with all the arseholes who’ve been running us since then. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I don’t know but I’m sure we could have argued to keep the titles as well as been demoted out of the spl if they really wanted it but unfortunately liewell and the rest of the haters were in the decision making positions and all wanted us dead and buried.
