    Historically, Hubris was defined as “a personality quality of extreme or foolish pride, or dangerous overconfidence, often in combination with (or synonymous with) arrogance”.

    In recent years, however, it’s been replaced with a series of sketches.

    The first sees Sir David Murray with a speech bubble containing words like “fiver” and “tenner”. It then moves on to an image of a tall Norwegian man holding aloft a shirt with “FLO 22” on the back. 

    These illustrations are all rendered in bright, vibrant colours. The palette grows gradually darker as a further 500 drawings reveal, among other things, the captain of the USA national team retrieving a ball from a hedge in Brechin, Charles Green reciting an unsettling Christmas message and an obscure trophy with the word “Petrofac” written on it.

    You would think Rangers might be a bit more wary of the whole hubris thing by now. Perhaps they might even have learned a lesson of some kind. If you think that you’ve not been paying attention to Rangers in the 21st century.

    In 2014 when Rangers began their first season in the Championship there was an assumption that in a year’s time they would be playing Premiership football. Within 90 minutes, however, they had been beaten by Hearts.

    Within three months they had drawn twice with Alloa. Within 10 months the Bilel Mohsni Experience played its iconic Fir Park set. Within a year they were kicking off their second season in the Championship.

    When they returned to the Premiership in 2016 the talk was of "going for 55". The assumption being the title could be won by a squad featuring Joey Barton and Philippe Senderos.

    Surely now, as Rangers near the end of their third successive top-flight season without mounting a title challenge, they would consider approaching the 2019-20 campaign with a touch more humility. 

    If that’s the plan, no one told Dave King.

    While confirming a five per cent increase in the cost of season tickets earlier this month, the Rangers chairman declared his club to be “within tangible reach of becoming the dominant force in Scottish football again”.

    In much the same way as Graeme Souness is within tangible reach of an invite to Paul Pogba’s Whatsapp group.

    Kit manufacturer Hummel didn’t get the memo either. Their video launching next season’s Rangers kits was as cringeworthy as it gets.

    Ludicrously bombastic score that would have the makers of Game of Thrones saying, ‘Take it down a notch lads?’ Check. Very Serious Voice quoting lines from a Rangers song? Check. Scott Arfield 
    looking down then lifting his head to stare solemnly into the camera with all the gravitas of Screech from Saved by the Bell? Check. 

    Hummel said: “The 19-20 @RangersFC home kit by Hummel is dedicated to the followers of Rangers FC who are more loyal and passionate than most. That’s why we have integrated a line from the popular Rangers FC fan song ‘Follow Follow’ as a part of the jersey design. I know what you’re wondering. I wondered it too. It turns out the line they’ve chosen to integrate is “We will follow Rangers”. I guess whoever suggested the line from “Follow Follow” about the Pope and the Vatican got shouted down in the Hummel office. Either that or there was some kind of copyright issue.

    This is just one of many questions that arise during the video’s 72 seconds. Another is “What level of irony is the narrator operating on when he says ‘celtic know ALL about their troubles’ in reference to the club who are set to comfortably win their eighth league title in a row?”.

    They rounded things off with the hashtag “#sharethegame”, a classic example of the sports advertising trope wherein some words are chucked together that suggest drama, dynamism and teamwork but actually mean the square root of f*** all.

    A complete no mark who frequents social media for likes and shares to boost his ego by helping the homeless and underprivileged, all while Facebook liveing off course. Seems to be good pals with convicted perjurer and king of the swingers, Tommy Sheridan

    The minute you start blowing your own trumpet about the charity work you carry out then you lose all credibility as far as I’m concerned.

    There was a clip of some interview he done with a hoor from Glasgow who told a story about how she shat in a dog bowl and her customers ate it

    I wouldn’t take any of his podcasts seriously

    2 league titles, a scottish cup and a league cup

    More winners medals than out full current squad combined...but aye mate did nothing 

     

    Well that’s not true. McGregor blows that out the water for a start. But I get your point I thought he was a decent player for us, and somebody who’d probably get a game most weeks in this current team.

    Not watched it and no offence to BM but a surely scrapping the bottom of the barrel with this one as he didn’t exactly have a standout career, only remember him being at us for about 3 or 4 years and doing nothing much of note 

    If you have watched any the other ones you’ll see that Malcom is one of the better ones. Last week was a snooker player in celtic Park and your saying the barrels been scraped for Malcolm. He’s won more than johnny Russel and all the other wee fags that go on that show

    Gerry Collins - “Rangers don’t produce enough Scottish talent”

    Alan McGregor,Alan Hutton, Mo Ross, Steven Mclean, Lewis McLeod, Stephen Hughes, Stevie Smith, John Fleck, Chris Burke, Barrie McKay, Charlie Adam, Barry Ferguson, Bob Malcom, Liam Kelly, Kyle Hutton, Greg Wylde, Danny Wilson, Greg Halkett. We’ve produced our fair share of young Scottish players over the years and some have been overlooked. Who the fuck has the spl teams produced over the years that could be considered talent.
