AlBear. 8,499 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 55 titles, that way they will never catch us....They'll never catch us anyway. Hence why they were so upset we weren't stripped of any. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RockwellGers 14,684 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 In my opinion any titles we win on our way back to the top tier are symbolic of our rising, and will have their own place of pride in the trophy room. I wouldn't count them in the 54 though, they should be listed separately in the honours Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
papaguy51 912 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Celebrating this as a normal title would be embarrassing.I'll celebrate on behalf of how the young lads have fared, but when push comes to shove, it's nothing to get worked up about.Glasgow Rangers winning a part-time league by 30 points - just think of it as that.

debear 603 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Its 55! I find it incredible how Rangers fans can say its not? Its a LEAGUE CHAMPIONSHIP.We've been Scottish Champions 54 times, we won't be Scottish Champions this time.You can't equate a 3rd Division title to being Champions of your country.It's a title that should be celebrated, of course, but it shouldn't be lumped in with the rest.

Paolo Vanoli Ultras 14 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 Technically it would be our 55 title. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SirAlistairofMcCoist 91 Posted March 5, 2013 Share Posted March 5, 2013 We'll have 54 Scottish Championships, but have 55 titles. Its common sense. The fact that this near divides us baffles me Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

james1690 29 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 This is serious clutching at straws. Top flight wins only. Ross County didn't get one closer to our record of 54 last year, neither did whoever won the 3rd division.There is absolutely no way in hell that we can count this as a 55th title.Why not?? Fair enuf it aint the same as winning the spl title but we aint in the spl. Break everything down we ahould have remained in the spl and winning titles, but because of a conman and hatred towards our club we are in sfl3 giving the scum atleast 3 titles.So for me its 55th.

.Williamson. 81,946 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 I'm only counting top flight titles. Anything that is won league wise in these divisions is simply more silverware to me. Obviously the lads deserve recognition for what they're doing and they will get that. They'll be remembered as the ones that stuck with us through all this and the ones that joined to help when we needed it most. They'll be part of Rangers history, same way the 55 league titles when we get there will be 55 top flight titles in the history books. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
broxi74 127 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Division 3 title.the 55th league title will come when we've took our rightfull place at the verry top! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rob100 0 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 The amount of you who say it will be our 55th League title obviously no nothing about this history of the club. It should not count for one simple reason because nobody counted them before. We won the old C Divison Title 3 times the C Division was the name given to the 3rd division. We won it in 1951-52, 1952-53 and 1953-54. These were 3rd tier level titles we are now in the 4th tier so why count this one? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KingKirk 25,595 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Of course it is we need to keep the gap as wide as possible until we get back to the top. Big Jig said on sat also that this would be number 55. thats good enough for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Add these titles on until we get back and then chop them off again?Nope to me just keep adding them, as long as we stay ahead of those cunts. I don't care how we do it. It kills them knowing we have more titles. This is their chance to close that gap massively. So by winning Div3,2,1 it keeps them at arms length. Then the only dent the can make to our total is when were back in the same division. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BallochBear 1,613 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 WTF is the difference between winning a title and winning cup that's not the "top" one, we count the ECWC don't we? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
billy72 17 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 So when the inevitable happens and we win SFL3, is it title number 55? Or is it top league titles?defo top league titles folks . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bombaybadboy08 15,660 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 Feels a bit desperate saying it's 55, it's another well deserved trophy that will be recorded in history but I go by top league titles.I don't a toss about the tims or getting it up people, when we win the SPL again we can be proud that all 55 are as champions of Scotland.

james1690 29 Posted March 7, 2013 Share Posted March 7, 2013 What will happen should we move to england or form another league or join an atlantic league or something lile that, will that then be an end to counting league winning titles at 54 should we move before reaching the sphell?? Id count all titles won from the day all them haters opted to kick us to the bottom teir of scottish football and persistantly put the boot in.We may have only counted spl titles before but no-one thought we would ever not be playing in the top league. And although in truth our debt was managable and we should never have been kicked out the damage is already done. No matter what league we play in we will win titles and i'll be counting every f*cking one of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
