ian1964 10,413 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 And he is overjoyed the Light Blues fans will be rewarded for their loyal backing since they dropped down to the bottom tier last year with a big day out. However, with Hampden closed ahead of the Commonwealth Games next year, it is uncertain where the showdown with Raith Rovers next April will be held. And the Rangers boss has expressed hope that it goes to the biggest stadium possible so many thousands of the Ibrox club's followers can attend. He said: "I have no preferences where I would like the final to be. It is genuinely not of great concern to me. "We have previously played finals at Hampden, Celtic Park and Ibrox. I know where I would like the final to be played (Ibrox), but I could totally understand why it wouldn't be there. "What I would like is for as many supporters as possible to get into the stadium. That would be great." http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/rangers/the-bigger-the-better-says-mccoist-over-rangers-final-venue-140934n.22559426 So!,it would be unfair for us to play the final of the Ramsdens Cup at Ibrox,but it's ok for the BHEASTS to have a home game in the Scottish Cup final?. Would it not have been correct in the name of sporting integrity to say the Scottish Cup final will be held at the Saville Dome, unless the BHEASTS reach the final in which case the final will be played at Ibrox?. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Is it not obvious that the Ramsdens cup should be held at the biggest neutral football stadium necessary ie Celtic Park as Rangers are in the final, and the Scottish cup final should follow suit meaning if Celtic are in the final it's at Ibrox, if Rangers are in the final it's at Parkhead and if both are in the final then as we have no neutral football ground large enough, we move it to Murrayfield... And if we can't get Murrayfield we make a request for St James or the Stadium of Light. If the FA cup final can be played in Cardiff for a suitable, neutral stadium, I can't see why we can't travel to Northumbria... Really, really simple stuff. But then we have a very biased and cheating cabal running the game... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

barca72 440 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Remember the last time we won the league there? Fans on the pitch, referee assaulted. Scotland's shame. How good would it feel for a lower league team to go there and stuff it to them? Bring it on. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Why is it not a surprise that they've managed to find a stadium with twenty thousand green seats for this one? Will they have a special Friday or Saturday night mass in the stadium to bless the Raith? :fish: 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebear54 0 Posted October 30, 2013 Share Posted October 30, 2013 Nobody seeing it from the perspective of wanting as small a stadium as possible? Everybody watch it on telly, and Turnbull Hutton gets as little filthy lucre as possible out of what could have been a bumper payday for Raith. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
