I think that in 1963 Rangers played Everton in a British Championship, home and away. I have the programmes somewhere and yeah this would be great to start again............................Follow...................Follow................

Why do so many Rangers fans have their heads up Chelsea's arse? People wearing Chelsea tops to Rangers games etc, do you think Chelsea fans do this? The only team Ive ever thought of being associated with us is Linfield and perhaps Hamburg now. Not Chelsea, I hate them. Chelsea have something like 15 trophies that matter, they are not on the same level as us historically so why should we associate with them?

You're right, I forgot about all the prestige that Linfield bring. :rolleyes:

We don't associate with clubs for glory, we're not Tims.

Yes because we should only like teams that win all the time. ????????

I have mates who are Chelsea fans and they do actually like the Rangers you know.

I know there are plenty of english fans who like us. THing is, there are definitely more chelsea (real chelsea fans, not the "prawn sandwich" brigade nowadays

Has nothing to do with how many trophies they've won, Hamburg have won one trophy since 1986 (not including the intertoto cup),yet you'd associate yourself with them? You've totally contradicted yourself there mate.

I remember we played Everton in the 80s when both were champions in a British Cup match in Dubai.

I'm sure we won on penalties.

We certaily did, good shout

That's different though. They sing about "Liverpool and Rangers are shite." Or is it "Fuck Liverpool and Rangers."

I fucking hate Chelsea and to be honest, i know loads of Celtic fans from work and so on that follow them too. Can i ask any historians out there to explain why on earth we are associated with the nonsense of Chelsea . . . ? Fair enough, if you like them and you happen to be a Rangers fan too. But the association, as if we have some sort of connection that goes back to the Pharoahs!?

I'm sorry but . . . i don't get it . . . :anguish:
