Just a point why did cg not say he was buying the history with the assets. He only saying what some fans want to here. The guy is an embarrassment. I fear he will destroy you worst than Craig whyte

So yous are the most successful club because you bought the titles ... what an achievement that is

Give it a rest man. You lot are like a broken record.

We trust Charles Green. Nothing you say will change our minds. We firmly believe Charles Green is the man to take us forward.

Now eff off n give us peace!!

TTG

@2: you all said the same about Whyte, did you not.

Can you honestly say that you trust him even though he's lied several times and contradicts himself regularly in what seems an obvious attempt to get you all on side? It's quite calculating and the fact so many have fallen for it should be an embarrassment.

#2, give this some thought: you also trusted Craig whyte and David Murray.

Maybe asking some questions may do your club some good.

Trust Green or not, he is the man pulling all the strings and, unless you have the money to buy him out, get behind him. The club is playing competative football, signing players etc. which, at one point this year, was looking doubtful. Sadly the supporters have become suspicious of everyone connected with the Rangers management and their true motives. Look on this ride as a unique opportunity to go straight into the record books as the first team to progress through all Scottish Divisions in consecutive seasons. What a tale to be part of. (Oh, and I don't support Rangers but I do love football and that is what matters)

Well, at the end of the day, the guy has stood up for the club. He hasn't promised us a £20m transfer kitty and then refuse the manager transfer funds like Craig Whyte did. The guy has came in and sorted debts that were left by Craig Whyte. Yes we trusted Craig Whyte, which was a mistake, he was a conman and conned a lot more companies than Rangers. Charles Green says as it is and is a lot more vocal than what Craig Whyte was, he interacts with the fans and has provided McCoist with a decent wage budget to attract a good crop of players to the club. This time last year Craig Whyte sanctioned deals for players he had no intention to pay for, Charles Green has done no such thing.

So far so good if you ask me.

TTG

Nonsense 3 and 4. Many fans had grave reservations about Whyte and if your memory wasn't so selective, you'd know that. We had a situation where there was little choice but support our new owner despite our doubt, the club comes first. Many fans also have doubts regarding Green but there is a real strength amongst the support and a willingness to pull together to see our club progress. For what it's worth, I'm really enjoying watching my team and enjoying Div 3 and 'the journey' more than I thought I could and am pleased that in CG, we have someone who's prepared to stand up and be counted. duccablue

Troops do you know if rory mcilroy is a rangers fan ?? quote from BBC "I am also a proud Ulsterman who grew up in Northern Ireland, which is part of the United Kingdom. That is my background and always will be. any thoughts on this ??? {Ed001's Note - I am pretty sure he is a Man Utd fan, if he is the golfer dating Caroline Wozniacki, that is.}

Does it matter?

Why do you want him to invest

Hes a man utd fan m8

Does that make him a better golfer if he supports The Rangers??

Neil lennon is from northern ireland is he a rangers man ??

Jeezo the guy was only askin a question! If u dont like questions in regard to The Gers then your in the wrong place ffs

Think he's definitely Man U but I'll not hold that against him at the Ryder Cup.

Fantastic player.

Poster 5 i heard he wanted to play for gers , so he dyed his hair blonde to hide his ROOTS llol doug t.s.o

5) Not that it matters, but Lennon was invited to sign for RFC when he was a kid.

DazzaBhoy

Now saying he's not decided whether to represent Great Britain or Ireland at the next Olympics. That should tell you all you need to know.

Rory Mc elroy was brought up a catholic went to mixed school,his uncle was murdered in the trouble,s you can be a ulsterman and be a catholic,source my wife,s dad who is aloyal ulsterman and a rangers supporter and play,s at his club,and yes he is a man u fan(yikes).garlar07

Id just like to ask if the Newco Jesus joke i sent but didnt get put on was deemed Bigoted? Or was it old? Or just plain Pi$$ lol

Celtic fans are obsessed with this sight, it's great just comedy gold, FFS how long did it take yous to work out how long your transfer ban was and who can forget the time micheal laudrup played for old rangers. I come here for the same reason I go to the zoo, sevco fans amuse me

Who are sevco?

@1: the name used to wind up Rangers fans.

Michael laudrup NEVER played for Rangers!

Thought it was brian
who played for Rangers lol

@3+4: the OP was referring to the Rangers fan who congratulated Michael Laudrup after Swansea's first win this season and finished by saying 'Once a bear, always a bear' (he thought Michael played for Rangers).

hope we get celtic in a cup final this year, to me templeton,black,shields,wallace, sandaza when fit are as good as celtic players in the same positions

Which is why an EPL team bought a Celtic squad player and the others went to a 3rd division team.

Yeah right. These players wouldnt have got near you team 8 months ago (apart from Sandaza who knocked you back - lol). And we pumped you then. Don't get carried away with beating a few part-timers 5-1. Lol

@1 EPL teams took 3 Midfielders that jumped ship from Rangers ur point is pointless

Larky Beat

@2 knocked us back...... you sure you are just not making this up, I mean why let the truth get in the way of a good stroy.

@4: check it out - Sandaza turned down an offer from Rangers in January.

Poster 2 last year you pumpt us ? check your history, wrong as usual. bbb:o)

@3: jumped ship is the difference.

Templeton was wanted by who before you bought him?
Black, Hearts gave him a free.
Sheils was released by Doncaster.
Wallace i'll give you as he is quality!
Sandaza couldn't cut it at Dundee Utd!

If you believe they players are a match for Celtic's first team then you are off your head! May i refer you back to the last old firm game. Who won?

You trying to tell us that Black is better than Edu, Sheils better than Aluko?

DazzaBhoy {Ed001's Note - to be fair, that is nonsense, Leeds wanted Templeton, but didn't have the funds, Hearts wanted to keep Black, but again they didn't have the funds.}

Eh did Celtic get any offers from EPL teams for anyone other than Ki, who lets fave it Swansea were conned.
Oh there was that bid for Wanyama from Arsenal which was similar to the bid Rangers received on deadline day for Jelavic last Summer.

But to be fair Ed, DazzaBhoy is slightly blinkered by the green specs.

He is under the illusion that Celtic fought off Barcelona for Lassad.

Are you telling me my post is nonsense or the OP is nonsense? Leeds were out bid by Sevco? Really?

DazzaBhoy {Ed001's Note - you are talking nonsense and no Leeds couldn't afford him. Not outbid, couldn't afford, there is a huge difference.}

Why would i believe Celtic could outbid Barcelona?

And if you read any of my posts on this or the Celtic page you would see i'm more interested in Watt, Twardzik, McGeough et al coming through than Miku Ambrose and Lassad joining!

DazzaBhoy

I reckon gers would beat celtic in a one off match. apart from samariz they dont have a lot of quality

@2 selective memory kicking in again

my recollection was that head to head last season we won two you won two
we scored 8 you scored 7 pretty even i would say even with all your multimillion pound players that the EPL were queueing up to buy (sarcasm)

JG

So enlighten me then Ed, how is my post "nonsense"?

Leeds dont have the money to bid for Templeton but can sign (Sewar rat) Diouf? Templeton prob on 2grand a week and Diouf on prob 25grand a week!

Or was it that Sandaza couldn't cut it at Dundee Utd....was that nonsense?

Is it nonsense that Sheils was released by Doncaster Rovers?

Everyone knew Black was going to be released by Hearts way before Sevco's "transfer ban" got shifted! Yet no-one else bid for Black!

You inform me that my post is nonsense when the OP states Sevco would beat Celtic. Were competing in the Champions league whilst you are competing in the Ramsdens cup.......or is that nonsense too?

DazzaBhoy {Ed001's Note - Dazza you are making yourself look incredibly stupid with your complete fantasy rubbish, if you can't understand why Leeds couldn't afford him, then you need some help with maths! You do realise that Hearts received a fee for Templeton, right? Now run along, because you are boring me with your idiocy. You are such a little girl who can't take being wrong, and you are so wrong in this instance. Being released means nothing, unless you are 5 years old. All it means is that Doncaster could no longer afford him in League 1, you do know they have very little money right? While in the Championship, they had the lowest budget in the division in almost every season. They had to lose a few of their higher paid players, Shiels being one of those. Everyone knew Black had agreed to join Rangers, except obviously yourself, who is so embarrassingly blinded by their anti-Rangers bias. You are just talking like a 5 year old trying to score points and none of it having the slightest bit of truth behind it and a complete lack of understanding of football.}

"Fantasy rubbish" you say......Hearts have the richest man in Scottish Football club running them......If Black had been worth keeping, Romanov would have sold him! Romanov spent a million on his Basketball team.

I feel your personal insults aint helping you either. Many times you claim i'm 5?

Sheils may be a good player but he didn't look good playing for Hibs did he? He found his level at Killie (irrelevant of wages) is Killie standard what your going for now?

I understand my team Ed, i understand we have some quality players coming through. Watt, McGeough, Twardzik make me proud of MY club.

McCoist and Co should be doing the same at ibrox! Mackay and Macloed have looked way better (and hungrier) than any player you have brought in. Why? Because they play for the love of your club. Watching Forrest skin Papac or McGeady skin......Prso and co was the best feeling ever......cause they boys are home grown.....

The original post was about your team being better than mine at this point in time, and if you believe that, your mad

Edit/stick whatever you like at the end of this post.....if i can't have my opinion without you attempting to mock me then so be it.

DazzaBhoy

32, by the way {Ed001's Note - you seem to have forgotten, my team is Liverpool, this is nothing to do with my team. What you did was attempt to belittle the players Rangers have signed with nonsense about their status prior to signing for Rangers. Your whole post was full of biased rubbish based on a complete lack of any kind of knowledge of the players involved. I really don't care whether Shiels is a genius or utter dross, the point was he was released because of wages, not because they no longer wanted him. You can try and change tack a billion times, but nothing will change the fact that you were simply wrong about Templeton. Instead of trying to argue, why didn't you just admit to being wrong? I have said on here, I personally don't rate Templeton, but that doesn't mean he wasn't wanted by Leeds, because he was. So why are you trying to argue? You are wrong, end of.}

I'm belittling players....they're surely doing that themselves! Templeton played against your team, and nearly caused an huge upset. Then he signs for a third division team. He could have stayed at Hearts and got another crack at Europe next year. However by joining NewCo he won't be in Europe for at least three years.

You said it when you said Sheils went to ibrox because Killie (a premier team) couldn't afford him.

Greed over ambition, is what went wrong at ibrox. You can dress it up however you like, those players are crap or they would be playing at a higher level.

Bet Ambrose, Miku and Lassad can't wait to test themselves against Messi, Xavi and Pique........Ambition, my friend, should be what football is about!

DazzaBhoy

@17. your not getting out your group in the cl sad but true! thats the state scottish football is in. we had you and other celtic fans on here saying were getting x amount for just getting to the group stages. personally thinking as a football fan not a company fan it should be about the wins not the money?...mark.

Just wondering guys, who thinks there was a conflict of interest with the appointment of Duff & Phelps. I suspect so and doubt this share flotation will go ahead as planned.

Hamish RTID

If the OP wasn't a regular poster and didn't leave a name, would they be labelled a Celtic fan and told it's none of their business?

@2, Rangers fans couldn't care less if people criticize Duff and Phelps. Paranoia much?

@2: the bit about the share flotation not happening would normally be called 'timmy nonsense' or something like that.

No attempt to answer the question eh Timmy, just another opportunity to point score ans have a dig. Oh, just did it myself. and what do you know, don't now feel big or clever. Is that how you feel aw the time?

@4: what the hell are you talking about. Not paranoid at all, thanks for asking, but just making the point that those who make the points the OP did are usually accused of being Celtic fans - that's the mentality of many on here, including, I'm guessing, your own. Now toddle off and think of something interesting to say for a change. Instead of utter guff. and I'm not a 'timmy', just an interested observer in the fickle and nonsensical nature of some fans on here.

levein is far too defensive. and his dispute with fletcher could ultimately cost him , his job. if we had a front line of fletcher and rhodes. with mackay,mackail smith,templeton,forest,naysmith in support. chuck in a few defenders. that is attacking,and would win a lot of games

So basically you want the former U21 team ......... And they qualified for what ?

So a worker/employee whatever you want to call him, can publically criticise his management without fear of retribution. Sorry, totally disagree. Anycomments should have been kept in the dressing room. Not only that, Fletcher did not even have the respect or decency to tell the manager to his face he did not want to be picked (by txt - very adult and professional). While I do not think Craig is the man for Scotland, I totally agree with his stance. He gave Fletcher the opportunity to retract or at least apologise and he would have been back in but Fletcher chose to create a personal battle (adds pounds to his book when it comes out). Do you think Smith, Stein, Ferguson, Busby or Shankly would have done anything different in the same situation? (and dont say they would never have let it get to this as probably correct but the facts are - Fletcher was wrong and boxed the manager into a corner and gave him no other options.

Never one to frequent Celtics page.
Took a look out of boredom. Didnt take long
to find this post-10 Sep 2012 00:24:34
Not a rumour but Press believe if you hate the sevco,.,.kbarry

Seriously? One minute we're a new club
with no history. Now this?
How could they possibly hate a new wee
diddy team in the 3rd div?

Simple, we didn't disappear and a section of the 'tic support(and a few others - namely the sheep) are foaming at the mouth that we are still here. We're not even in competition with them in the league and yet they still rant on about us. Many times i've seen the word Obsession used on here to describe their infatuation with us and thats exaclty what it is.

Why don't you ask the same question about your own fans? For all you see on here is how obsess ppl are yet you talk about Celtic and how you hate them. Double standards me think, why would you hate Celtic or talk about the spl for as you say your a little div3 team? Answer?

I'm not foaming at the mouth but entertained by the daftness and delusion that still regularly rears its head on this page.

1903

@2. Well heres a suggestion - Don't come here and then you won't know what we talk about.

@3. You should try your own pages for reading rubbish, its quite amusing.

@2. I dont hate Celtic chief. Never have. see im mature about it. Its only a game of football. I Love the rivalry and banter amongst my friends. The point i was making, which has went over ur head btw is the double standards from your end. Question to you is, if Rangers are a new set up with no history why are they hated? Answer?

@2. You will find that a lot of our fans don't hate Celtic - dislike yes but not hate. The constant sanctimonious rantings on here from others, probably has a lot to do with it, especially from Celtic fans but not exclusively. Regarding the SPL, well we could say the same about your infatuation with SFL3. Until we were included there, don't remember you lot talking about it.

@6+7: so banter on here equals hatred to you? Sad, sad, sad.

@5: and what pages would that be? I guess you think i'm a Celtic fan. Try again.

1903

Poster 9 i bet you a pound to a penny your an aberdeen fan doug t.s.o

@8. I get it. When Gers fans post, its hate. When Tic fans post, its just banter. V Good mate and u still cant answer the question.

#3 it's a forum so likes of your good self are welcome regardless of the daftness of your head.

@11: the eds don't allow hatred on here, despite what you read into posts. I never accused anyone of hatred; it's just annoying when so many seem to see hatred in posts when it's clearly not.

@10: clever man.
