UCF2008 0 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 We didn't deserve to be treated the way we have been and for the good of the game in Scotland, Rangers need to be restored to the top flight as quickly as possible. It's not all about money. Scottish football has been on a slippery slope for some time now with TV money and sponsorship ever more tricky to negotiate. Attendances have dwindled. The game has been in decline and Rangers have been instrumental in holding it together. If our future as a club is to be in Scotland then we need to put our differences aside and facilitate any moves to return us to the top flight. Of course there should be conditions attached, but at the same time we should be realistic about our demands. Fiorentina unlike ourselves were a completely new club who took more than a season to restore their identity. Nonetheless through their historical significance to the game in Italy were fast tracked on the basis of Sports Merits. Why shouldn't the same apply to Scotland's most successful club?. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,267 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 I was under the impression that the European stuff was related to 3 full years of accounts, not where we play. Going by that, our first year in Europe would be the 2015/16 season. No matter where we'd play('ed) before. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
UCF2008 0 Posted June 1, 2013 Share Posted June 1, 2013 Cheap thrill at the expence of honour. The trouble with this is that if we're offered the fast track option our honour could be questioned whether we accept or decline. Where would the honour be in saying 'No thanks. You've made your bed and can lie in it' ? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
