Getting a mix between youth and experience is the way forward. A few more fresh bodies and the quadruple could be on the cards

Bilbao reserves beat the mighty Helsinki 6-0, says it all.

Says what ?
Keep an eye on peterhead and brechin results as well ? Jealousy is self harm.

Well it beats beating east Stirling 5-1 Helsinki is old news mate win by 1 or by 27 does not matter

In cl will say it all, last minute equalizers in div3 against even worse teams then Swedish champs says it all. Ouch!

Posters 1 /2 and 3 yes says it all ok ,square ball celtic is your new name ,square ball for picking easy games for you against wee diddy teams ,your nails are all shoogly fearing the worst in the up coming draw, oops thats if helsingborg dont take 4 off yous at parkheid in return game ,read the daily record hotline thursday 23rd august ,nae confidence in your team and manager from your own supporters for scotlands no, 2 team lol doug t.s.o

Number 3, you will get totally embarrassed in CL, you probably drew 2 of the worst teams in the qualifiers.

We keep hearing of rangers fans biting on here, but numbers 1,2 and 3 like fish on a hook. Ha.

Post 4; Square ball draw? Are you really that twisted doug? Would you consider Malmo and Maribor giants of the game then? Or can we look forward to seeing Peterhead rising through the leagues to become SPL champions?You claimed Helsinki would win,you claimed defeat in Sweden was a cert,now 0-4 in the home leg? Dear me.

Poster 7 am i upsetting you ,i didnt say 0-4 in second leg ,if you asked me for a forecast i would have said 2-4 lol ,did you ever wonder in the pasthow the old firm were kept apart in cup draws leading up to the semi and final and you have the cheek to say draws arent rigged i could fill the alphabet of wee teams that have beat celtic in europe over the years ,learn 1 lesson in life you tic fans that dish the banter or fun out learn to accept it back in good fun or just carry on eating your jelly while you boo hoo doug t.s.o

@8: plenty of Rangers fans greetin' about banter from other fans on here.

I have to say i have never seen an easier game in my life for a scottish club to get into the champions league group stages. i think celtic made heavy weather of a very poor team.

Imagine with all that being out of europe for 3 yrs, no euro money, the Offended FC flag carrying for Scotland, the who won more games in Euro posts and according to the Member Associations, UEFA rankings, Club Coefficients, third division Rangers are in 50th spot while the Offended FC, champions, are in 63rd spot 2011/2012. Cant even play in the euro comps but have more coefficient points.
To put it simply even being out of euro and playing in the 3rd division Rangers have more coeficient points and thus contribute more to the international points even tho our player gets booed.

What a daft post - the coefficient is taken from the last 4 years, and in some of them the older version of your club was possibly fielding ineligible players.

To put it simply, 'the Rangers' don't have any co-efficient points. They have zero history in European competition. Oldco rangers (god rest them) have the co-efficient points. Pretty sad that they will never be able to take advantage of them, being dead and all.

Who cares about co-efficient points. Hope your club loses every match they play in europe. We are Rangers,we don't need your help or expect help from anyone else,especially after the way we've been treated. We stand alone,watp! Geo the Ger

Ponder this. The official Uefa website gives a running update of a clubs progress each season so why is Rangers last updated game the 4-0 win against St Johnstone on the 13th May 2012 ? Is it because that football club is now dead.

Now go to Celtic on the same Uefa website and it shows that their last game was against Helsingborg on the 21st August.

Sevco is not Rangers.

Yoo hoo no 4 ,were still here ,cant you see us ,were not going to go away ,nightmare on kerrydale st lol doug t.s.o

@4
Falkirk's last game listed is 2/6/11, Dunfermline 12/5/2012 Sphell, Vilarreal 13/5/2012, Bolton Wanderers 13/4/2012 so according to you Confucius, that means all of these clubs are 'dead'? All of these clubs are listed with points and places in the rankings. This info is easily accessed.
You'll probably find that the clubs being updated are in their top leagues. Rangers' profile was last update 26/11/2011.
Now ponder this Confucius, in your haste to rubbish off more stats you jump to the wrong conclusion again. Face the facts. Rangers are Rangers.

@6: and if BDO say they can't use the name and UEFA confirm that the new club is just that, with only a few games of history, will you still be banging on about it while your head is in the sand?

Lol talk about deluded,keep telling yourself nothing has changed and maybe it will come true,Newco have a chance to start fresh,embrace it dont harp back to the old dead club

You're 100% correct. Top flights only covered on the site.

Hamish

Why is it if we are a new club yous all still feel the need to come onto our page more obsessed with us than your own little team as Charles green stated rangers then now and forever

@11: no, just interested in having a laugh at the continued delusion on here ;)

@10: not obsessed at all, just interested on the banter you can't seem to take.

23 Aug 2012 17:04:15
does any one know if the tops we were wearing against falkirk are the new away top.

When has the champions league ever earned a Scottish club 15 millon? What's the breakdown on how 15 millon will be earned? I've never known a Scottish club to ever earn 10 millon never 15 millon.

It is mainly through TV money, but the figure also includes money generated through gate receipts and you earn roughly £250,000 for every point you get in the group stages. So Celtic will get £250,000 for the one draw they will get and the rest losses.

Playoffs: 2,100,000
Group stage: 3,900,000
For each match in group stage: 550,000
Group match victory: 800,000
Group match draw: 400,000

And say 50,000 3 home match ticket @ £105 = £5,250,000.00 then hospitality, food and drink, match sponsership etc etc.

: Rangers stand to get £45.82 if they win the Harry Ramsden Fish Supper Cup. A spokesman said, "We'd rather have the £45.82 than the millions Celtic will get for being in the Champions League because not even our manager Sally McMoist could eat millions of pounds worth of pies. £45.82 will see him through a wet Wednesday match away to Annan Athletic."

Hail Hail
ChrisBhoy

Number 1, will they get a draw? I think your being kind.

Shows you how stupid your post is Dafty Ramsdens is a pawn shop . didnt know you could get fish suppers in a pawn shop.

@4: loads of people on here said they'd be humped in Helsinki then in Helsinborg...

One thing is for sure. Sevco fans will know exactly what Ramsdens sponsor the cup. Sponsors do tend to aim at the market they attract and you can't get any more desperate for money than a sevco fan.

How is the guy a 'dafty' for not knowing it was a pawn shop?
Maybe he is more used to visiting Ramsdens for a fish supper than pawning stuff, can you same the same dafty?

5.) talk about daft. i cant believe you fell for that one.

Chris Bhoy, you should have signed your post Fail Fail, Harry Ramsdens have nothing to do with the Ramsdens cup. What an idiot, typical Celtic fan tries to be smart and ends up looking like an idiot.

Truly a
FAIL FAIL

They're not even through yet.

If the Swedes get half as many chances as did they in the first leg they'll surely take one or two. Saying that I do make Celtic favourites.

Hamish

@ 5)...you fool. of course l know that. It's called banter...humour...having a laugh. But being a fan of the gers you won't know what those words mean!! lol lol lol

Hail Hail
ChrisBhoy

Poster 12 ,i hope you enjoy my banter ,a lot of your friends at tic cannae take it either doug t.s.o

@ 10 and @13......fish and chips, pawn shop, brothel, charity shop.......call it what you like, you won't find caviar and diamonds in it. But those are the things the SPL Champions are getting used to for now! lol lol
So bounce along with your third rate Cup competition and wait until you come up against the big guns like Forfar Reserves, Stenhousemuir Ladies and Clackmannanshire Old Boys...then you'll see that it's tougher than you thought. In the meantime we'll enjoy real football throughout Europe against the big guns. lol lol

Hail Hail
ChrisBhoy

@13: and loads of Rangers fans on here can't take any banter at all!

No 14 chris clackmannan woow theres a team there called the warriors there even tougher than the calton tongs ,id rather tackle jeff capes and brutus out of popeye lol dug t.s.o

Ed, is SFL div3 a one team league? {Ed001's Note - no, it is part of the SFL, it is the 3rd division of the Scottish Football League.}

23 Aug 2012 14:31:57
Ed how many rangers on international duty would it take for the queen of the south game to get cancelled on 9th of September? As there is international games on the 8th and 11th. {Ed001's Note - it depends on the league's rules, not sure if the SFL D3 will even have a rule to cover it to be honest. Usually it is 4 or 5 players missing.}

It's ok ed on rangers website game been put back to Sept 18th or 19th because of international games. {Ed001's Note - cheers, I was trying to find the passage in the rulebook that covers it. Those things are so boring to read, it is hard work to find anything.}

Levein does not want any of our players so why not let the game go ahead on the 9th,

JG

He might want some QOS players cos they're in Div2.......DH

league reconstruction on the agenda again for next season,cant see this happening even tho it would be for the benefit of scottish football,top tier of 16 with 2 divisions below,great idea as scottish football is on its knees and needs change,what do you think guys

I prefer 2 leagues of 20, works in spain,italy etc. something needs to be done tho, i stayed in england for a good few yrs and our league is a joke, they couldnt understand how 7th place could have more points than 6th and come to think of it neither can i............bhoywonder

Agree totally we have had our punishment bear in mind timmy forgeting that even if back in SPL in 2 years we are out europe for at least 3 years so all it will mean is a better competitive league sooner. I think seeing Div 3 coining it in from the split of money from us will quickly dawn on the small SPL teams (the other 11 lafs) and they will be desperate to have us back TIME is a great healer and we will be forgiven as we have suffered massively financially and the shame..... 2014 SPL champs good odds now lafs I will just be happy to be playing tims again , they will be desperate for revenge after we beat them in both big cups this year.....george

It's 21 divisions of 2 teams, keep you lot out of top league for another 20 years! Happy days.

Isn't there a 2 year notice period for league reconstruction or will Rangers fans be happy that these rules are changed to help them?

You still don't get it, do you. You've had no punishment. Yet. The first and only one will start on 1st September.

Sick too death of the deluded spouting we have been punished enough..3years euro ban,due too no audited accounts..not relegated to div3.applied for membership to div3 as a new club.the rangers...10pointts for administration,so 160,00 fine,,wont be paid,so transfer embargo is it...stevo

23 Aug 2012 12:25:09
just taken this straight from sky sports so most people already seen it.... McCoist is interested in signing morgaro gomis from birmingham, the ex dundee utd midfielder. would be a good signing as he knows the lower leagues of scottish football having signed from cowdenbeath i think (or was that bauben)?

He played for Dundee UTD.

Did he no play for coats thread mills in paisley lol doug t.s.o

23 Aug 2012 12:10:28
So Regan is now confirming that more than likely a league resructure will be in place for next season. This explains Charlie boy's optimism in signing new players with above their weight quaility for D3.

A year's penance in D3 and then back into the SPL we go.

There's two full divisions of teams ahead of us for entry to an spl2. We're a new entry club remember with no official history. We can only unofficially claim the old clubs record.
The Scottish fans wouldn't allow it.
The club chairmen wouldn't allow it.
Regan just keeping himself in the news so he doesn't lose his job.

No shock there then ,the SFA come through for you again,I take it all you honest bears would campaign against this? Shocking that a company/team can build up that level of debt ,walk away losing only your history and players who wanted to go and start back no debt

Dannybhoy

Op - does that not mean we would be invited to join SPL2 next season not SPL1

JG

So your happy now then eh, after all this sfa regan punishing yous and let's all go against everyone cause they are having a kick at us and let's stay in div3 throw the fingers up at them. But I guess after all that the sfa are still no helping yous right and they are not doing anything possible to get you back in eh? Weird how this reconstruction happens just when yous are in the lowest div eh, but no they are doing this to have a kick at you and help everyone else right.

Im a Ger, i would rather work our way through the leagues. 3,2,1 GO :)

For the dv3 champs to be promoted to the spl the top league would have to have at least 30 teams in it , think about what your saying ,fab1

DannyBhoy,

For the past 2/3 years every fan in Scotland has been going on about league reconstruction and how it would benefit Scottish football.

Now, all of a sudden you lot don't want it to happen as you feel it will benefit Rangers.

Can't win with you lot, it's literally impossible.

TTG

League reconstruction is all well and good if there is a well thought out strategy behind it rather than the honkin twins trying to up their bonuses by doing their best to get The Rangers in the top league as fast as possible.

23 Aug 2012 10:37:44
everyone needs to stop thinking we will sign anyone for a fee! any signings will be someone on free transfer or bosman

Are the players signed receiving signing on fees?

23 Aug 2012 09:38:49
In these troubled times for rangers and when the whole of Scottish football and the media have it in for both old firm clubs,because these media play the old firm of against each other to stir it up...so rangers should be happy to a degree that Celtic look like progressing in the champions league so that when they get back to spl the European qualification has improved,yes Celtic have lost ki...but when a player wants to go from a team that should win the league and be in group stages to a team that will struggle,Celtic will bank that money to reduce their own debt and use money from Europe to buy young players who will be proud to wear the jersey...rangers fans are no different they want players to be proud in jersey and I salute the players who have stayed or who have joined...the rest of Scottish football are trying to destroy the old firm strangle hold on Scottish football by saying they should have a bigger share of pot of gold ,this is the pot of gold that Celtic and rangers put in over 90% of monies,so while Celtic are left to play in a un challenged league keep the spl afloat by their huge support likewise rangers get to take their huge support to grounds who have never seen attendances like this...so yes we are the greatest enemies in football..and that's the way it should be...what's that saying..I can't live with you..but I can't live without you......gujo...honest bhoy

I agree with you, however Celtic are NOT a target for the media. Celtics PR machine is way to strong and established, something Rangers have failed with for decades!

GDog
RTID

But this 90% to old firm - cos they generate it - lead to RANGERS and CELTIC in CL - and no progress, no wins, coeff reduced - so even if non-old firm wins league, they must PRE-QUALIFY for CL...

so harder for all to progress, often missing the £10 million bounty...

Just getting to the CL group stages is not enough. Celtic will need to finish third at the very worst in their group, or qualify to really help the co-efficient. By the time Rangers are back there will only be one CL spot for Scottish teams. No offence but Celtic just aren't good enough to qualify through the group or go on a Europa League run.

Well said, it's great having the banter but at the end of the day your correct. I love trying to noise rangers fans up and they love noising me up but if we didn't have each other it would be a lonely place

The most honest, sensible post I have read so far. Other than mine that is haha.

Blueice

Good honest post mate. Best i've seen from a CFC supporter on this page in a long while.
No malice,no p*sh,just telling it as it is.
P.O.B.

Your anger for Celtic seems to blind you because Celtic would have advanced in Europa(in the hardest group of tourny, with the eventual winners) if not for an own goal and and a bad call which would have led to a goal. Can't wait to hear what negative comments you have about us when we are holding our own amongst the best in Europe, but then again I thought all of yous would not be running in to watch? But thnx for helping with the money while you watch us on tv, I guess you have to watch to know what football is like since your clubs not I tv or radio eh lol

@7. Holding your own with the best in europe? You were lucky not to be 4-1 down to an average swedish team at half time. Unless Celtic get their defence sorted out, the better quality teams in the group stages will tear them apart. Celtic rode their luck in sweden and got away with it, you will win at parkhead and progress of that i have no doubt and good luck as you are going to need it.

Remember only a few year ago when rangers won 3 in a row you all laughed about celtic signing player after player and your motto was keep on signing. Changed days eh now your on here saying celtic wont sign anyone as they are only a selling club. I Think you are wrong celtic are a professional well run club and have been since their best ever signing peter lawell came to the club. They were over 25 million in debt when he took over and now that is about to be no debt with money in the bank. Give credit where credit is due.

I think you got the wrong page, this is a Rangers page not a Celtic one. We couldn't care less about the management of Celtic, they are a complete irrelevance to us.

OP - if we use the same logic and you were 25m in debt then you were playing players you could not afford. therefore under sporting integrity rules you cheated all other clubs and should be stripped of everything that you won during that period, I dont agree with the logic by the way but for consistency thats what you all tried to tell us

JG

@2: not if the debt was serviceable. Rangers' wasn't and then there's the dual contracts...

Debt was between & ten million ya clowns...so with champs league cash & ki,s sale,theres 21million,minus say 10million=11million too offer extended contacts too about 8players and plenty left over,,stevo

@4 easy tiger dont be so hard on your fellow tims, the OP obviously does not know his company history as well as you but i think he is talking about the past not the present level of debt, and one other thing i take it you are not an accountant with logic like that, you have to consider one small thing and that is running costs for the company you support of just under 60m per year!

JG
