    Had to copy and paste this from FF.

    Hopefully some of the many Rangers-haters that frequent the Rangers board on here will read it and actually learn something.

    Superb article from the ex taig.

    His view that there is a sizeable portion of Celtic fans who hate Rangers more than they like Celtic is both entirely correct and completely right.

    A quick headcount of the 85%ers on here confirms what most Rangers fans have been saying since the scandal broke, they are obsessed with Rangers.

    "Bernadette, git me ra nummer fur tradin schtandirds, ray ****s ir shelabraitin ahunnerinforty year anniversray , ****in scunnered wi this so a um . Whit wis rat? UM A FUCK GAWN TAE SEE RA HOOPS , ITSH BALTIC OOT RER"

    Rocket addressed the OP to the "rangers-haters that frequent the rangers board". I assume that means "Timmy". <ok>

    If you mean getting into admin and the oldco into liquidation, then yes. Otherwise, disappear along with the RTC.

    He didn't disappear, his work was done.

    I liked these parts:

    &#8220;Clearly, there was a cabal within the media working against Rangers&#8221;.

    &#8220;As a former sub-editor on many of Scotland's news and sports desks - broadsheets, mid-markets, tabloids &#8211; I have been at the heart of the beast and can tell you there is no bias towards either of the Old Firm clubs&#8221;.

    <laugh>

    What a load of utter one sided cack.

    There are a few decent tims on here though that don't bang on about Rangers day after day.

    Pud, Simon, Beale, Eddie, any more?

    (do they all go to the games, coincidence?)

    I don't really buy into the whole witch hunt thing, but the RTC certainly whipped up a rabid and wide spread frenzy that caused the club a lot of damage.

    Then the cowardly ****s deleted it all. Why did they do that, I wonder?

    You do spot the massive contradiction though?
