AlCapone 7,678 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 11 hours ago, Leftpegcoopz11 said: I only meant in the short term basis that we win the next two games and reach the maxs points total they can get. Officially we cant be crowned champions, but realistically the goal difference is "equivalent" to an extra point You’re not getting the point, goal difference only comes into play if we end up on the same points. To end up on the same points they need to win all their games and we need to lose 6. If that happens (and it won’t) then in all likelihood the goal difference will end up similar, the point of goal difference being an extra point is not true in this instance. If we were neck and neck with a 21 goal difference advantage with 2 games remaining then yes it would be worth an extra point Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essandoh 21,208 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 So, we’re 18 points clear on Matchday 30 with 8 games left to play and 24 points to play for. If we assume Rangers aren’t losing a game, then I think these are the scenarios that can play out: To win the league at Ibrox vs St Mirren on March 5th: Rangers win They lose 21 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers win = LEAGUE WON AT IBROX Rangers win They lose 21 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers draw = LEAGUE WON AT IBROX Rangers draw They lose 19 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers win = LEAGUE WON AT IBROX To win the league at their final whistle vs Dundee United on March 6th: Rangers win They win 18 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers win They fail to win = we win the league final whistle at Tannadice Rangers win They draw 20 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers draw They draw = we win the league final whistle at Tannadice Rangers draw They draw 18 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers win They lose = we win the league final whistle at Tannadice Rangers draw They draw 18 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers draw They lose = win the league final whistle at Tannadice Rangers draw They lose 19 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers draw They fail to win = win the league final whistle at Tannadice To win the league at Parkhead vs scum on March 20th: 1. We match each other’s results until that game OR Rangers win They draw 20 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers draw They lose 21 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR = draw at Parkhead to win the league Rangers draw They win 16 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers win They draw 18 CLEAR; 18 TO PLAY FOR = draw at Parkhead to win the league Rangers draw They lose 19 CLEAR; 21 TO PLAY FOR Rangers draw They win 16 CLEAR; 18 TO PLAY FOR = draw at Parkhead to win the league Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Leeds_Bear 8,110 Posted February 22, 2021 Share Posted February 22, 2021 Started posting on here Feb 2011 - our last title winning season. Being English and living down here through our dark days only ever had my Dad and the folk on here to talk to about it, no one ever really got what happened (but most down here did agree it wasn't right). At least I thought they didn't. Had loads of mates texting me these last few weeks wishing us well and hoping we get over the line. I think this is one of the world's most remarkable stories of recovery in football. We'll be drinking it in no doubt but I expect the coverage to be more widespread than a usual title win in Scotland, so enjoy it Bears! I know you will. And thank fuck for RM during those dark days, we were all in it together - with different views but ultimately the same goal and look where we're about to be.

I lost my Dad in 2014 and he was as big a fan of us as you could get - it never fails to get me down to realise that when he passed Rangers were at their lowest and he never got to see his club back where they belong. But the memory of them makes the victory so much sweeter, and we can celebrate for them as well as us. And if that means a few extra drinks.... well so be it!

I'm sure wherever he is, he will having a whiskey celebrating 55 with my Gran, Aunt, his parents and brothers etc. To absent friends. 😉👍🇬🇧 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's never happened in my lifetime. We could have had a massive lead by the end of the 09-10 season but took our foot off the gas big time. They had a fair few 18+ points leads over us in my time so to do this this of all seasons is just, uft, how do you put it into words?
