Include Celtic as i was talking about them too as a club with similar budgets and ambition at the time to ours, 10 trebles out of 66 possibles is pretty decent tbh between both clubs. Winning the quadruple was and is a realistic ambition, not expectation, of Rangers in the lower leagues with the second highest budget in the country and nothing anyone says will change that. It's what we should have been and probably would have been aiming for before a ball was kicked in our 3 years down in the lower leagues. I doubt anyone would have expected us to actually do it. As a club with a winning tradition we should always be aiming for the stars and for success on every level whether it is realistic or not. We are not a club who make up numbers. Or rather, we didn't used to be.
-
Also the domestic treble is Rangers and Celtics aim every single season that goes without saying, to deny it is just fucking embarrassing for yourself, arguing for arguing sake. Every manager we had went out to win the treble, every single year. Our club demanded that.
-
Why would the club with the second highest budget in the country not be expected to challenge for all domestic honours? Of course we enter every cup, league and tournament to win it. Otherwise why bother.
-
That wasnt for me Mike was it? Not sure it applies to my wee post above. A realistic ambition of the current Rangers is a domestic quadruple. We may very well end up with nothing. The expectation should be to win the double whilst developing the first 11 in preparation for the SPFL.
-
We haven't shown ambition for nearly 15 years as a club or fan base.
-
Imagining our lot with the keys to Ibrox is a horrifying thought. We couldn't run a bath!

50/50 is your guess. My guess is far more don't go because of the football, with them being football fans. Most fans on the street don't have a clue about board activities. Many are using the board as an excuse too because they don't want to blame Ally. The Sleazedales are scumbags, they are 2, better watch what i am saying here as i don't want banned for bad mouthing anyone, idiots out of their depth within our club and they do need removed. All depends who the manager is. The right man could very well fill the ground.
-
There wouldn't be a danger of going bust if the stadium was rocking full right behind a manager and team they could buy into and believe in. Ally and his disgusting brand of non-football have caused this wee crisis we now face.
-
Not at all, in fact i find it completely separate and different in just about every way.
-
PLG was due money and refused it. A man with absolutely no feeling for or affiliation of this club. Ally is showing himself up here for the type of man he is. And it's not a nice one. And folk called the likes of Lafferty, Whittaker and Naismtih traitors for actually doing us a favour and saving us millions!
-
The immediate risk was very much McCoistco and our league title battle, this evening which now looks over. Another season in the 2nd tier? May kill us once and for all. Some man that Super Ally guy. You can't no.
-
Have we not been paying players wages? Electricity bills? Gas bills? Our phone bill? Tax liabilities? Ticket office staff? Administrative staff? Coaches? Paying for Auchenhowie to open every day? Groundsmen to cut and maintain our grass? Did we not spend almost £1m on David Templeton? Is Ally working for nothing? Do we get free coach rides across the country to matches? This is getting silly.
-
Was it not Martin Bain and following regimes simply kept him in the job?
-
We can only guess, you don't know, i don't know. No one knows.
-
I would stop buying your beer.
-
Not specifically at you Ian no it wasn't but people like yourself who would rather moan and worry about the men in suits in the directors box than the people who actually provide your entertainment/lack of. We are football fans.
-
Not everything no but we could still win the league and there will be a far better atmosphere about the place and more money coming into the club with far bigger crowds. Listen Ian, the board is a problem, of course it is, they have failed us by not removing Ally sooner but we are where we are. Right now, the manager is doing more harm than anyone and needs removed as a matter of urgency. He is risking our very future even more so than the board by gambling with out promotion chances. This 2nd division should never have been in doubt, to be 12 points behind Hearts before Xmas is simply unacceptable on every level.
-
So you say but we had that money there. We don't have any now.
-
Let's be honest Rab, it's easier than being honest about a club legend for some, isn't it? A handy excuse not to look at the manager.
-
Jesus Christ. Je-sus Christ.
-
The club cannot afford it. Ashleys loan runs out in a matter of weeks and you want us to use the money to pay this Rangers man and his pals who are also Rangers men off now so we run out quicker? Is this what you want?
-
Some people also need to realise that we are not as big as they think we are. We are not big enough and do not make enough money to compete with Celtic, looking at both clubs accounts, that is just a fact. You can moan on here about demanding this and that and expecting to be 1st place but it's simply unrealistic and no amount of Dave Kings rand will change that either. We are years off even thinking about competing with Celtic. Years, at least. They have everything in place, we have nothing, absolutely nothing. As for 2nd place in this league, right now, to expect 1st place is also as unrealistic should we go 12 behind tmrw, the league will be all but done and out of our hands. Both scenarios are simply a case of the damage already being done.

I'm a football not an accountant. The management of my football team is of paramount importance to me.
-
This is what makes me sick. That isn't Rangers. It was the same shite we got in 2012, going for all trophies and with each cup knock out the targets were lowered to eventually the only one left which was a gimme anyway. It's f*cking embarrassing.

Sp*vs this Sp*vs that.
