This was going on between 2001 and 2010. If it's from the start of the 2001-2002 season to the end of the 2009-2010 season, I've calculated Rangers won 9 titles out of 27 (9 times league, 9 league cup and 9 Scottish Cup). Who won the rest? Additionally, how can people clamber for a football club to be stripped of titles it won when these same people are of the opinion it ceased to exist it 2012. That's the equivalent to taking gold teeth from a skeleton. It is desperate beyond words now.

I have a serious dislike for the guy. I'm no Rembrandt, but he's an ugly bastard into the bargain.

He's shite like his dad, He's shite like his dad, Andrew Dallas, He's shite like his dad.

Persona non grata on this forum.

Kris Boyd was out of breath coming on as substitute. I don't know how he can say fitness wasn't a issue last season.

He looks like he's getting a blowjob off an ostrich in that picture.

I was thinking back to the game about 10 minutes ago. I got goosebumps thinking about that performance. We're entering a very exciting period for our club.

It looked like he got clattered outside the box in the first half. It was probably a matter of give it 10 minutes, but he couldn't run it off.

I'd go back to the Burnley game. About 20-25 minutes in, there was a tangible sense of "we like the look of this" and a good ripple of applause from the crowd. We're watching our team paly football as it should be played, not the long ball tosh we've had to endure in recent times.

Agreed about the referee. He booked Martyn Waghorn for next to nothing - couldn't get the card out quickly enough. Two Peterhead players were cynical with their challenges and weren't deemed even worth speaking to.

You know it's changed days when the players were getting a standing ovation from all four stands with about 8 minutes of normal time to go. It's amazing what organisation and belief can do to a team.

This is a perfect example of me not actually giving a fuck.

My throat is fucking knackered after shouting at the game yesterday! It was great seeing Rangers playing like that. Long balls only if necessary rather than being the norm, keeping it on the deck and passing it. It still needs a bit of work, and a couple of more players brought in, but I like what I see. This season is going to be fun. Considering what we've had to ensure for the last few seasons, it wouldn't be difficult!

He did it in the Champions League against Anderlecht, last season I think?

Yeah, if their definition of 4 goals is "not much"!

There was a bit of bother after the play-off semi-final second leg last season. There was fisticuffs happening right in front of our supporters' bus. They might want seconds. Be wary if you're going, guys.

He's signed Nathaniel Clyne already, so the who-shall-we-sign-from-Southampton-this-summer-roulette is already underway!

Can he also admit Off The Ball is shite? It's about as funny as being stuck in a lift when someone has farted.

I would have said he was a fat barsteward. He was a fat, unfit, lazy barsteward.

Yet another whinger complaining about how they've been treated by the club. After last season's debacle, should Black, Boyd and Foster have genuinely thought they were going to have their contracts extended? We paid small fortunes following them here, there and everywhere. They repaid us by being paid in a week what most of us would take a year to earn and performed woefully by and large. There's no sympathy from this Bear.

Bearing in mind that Rangers' season didn't finish until May 31st, the uncertainty on who the manager would be and pre-season starting 27 days later, it would be impossible to have a fully-formed pre-season scheduled. The new management working on the basis of a pre-season drafted up by somebody else wouldn't work. By and large, bounce games aren't ideal, but Mark Warburton is working within the timeframe allotted to him. He does know Sean Dyche well, so it's no surprise that we've got a friendly lined up against Burnley. It'll be a decent game.

He's got another year left on his contract, but he should be moved on. I've seen milk turn quicker.

Scotland must be the only country in the world where a football final can have two referees.

I unfortunately got several messages via Septic fans having yet another laugh at our expense. I thought that (i) their season finished last Sunday and (ii) has the penny dropped with them that there won't be any Old Firm league games for yet another season?
