    I remember that dobber slagging the signing of Lubo, and stating categorically we should have signed John Spencer instead!

    "They could have got a proven goalscorer(the insinuation being we blanked him cause he's ex Rangers), instead they pluck a 33yo nobody from the backwaters of European football" <laugh>

    The dick just wants numbnuts to bite, and lot's of them seem to. A joke of a journalist.

    Rangers captain Lee Wallace aiming to create history and win every trophy in Scotland
    RANGERS skipper Lee Wallace is on course to pen a chapter in Scottish football history he never wanted to write in the first place.The Ibrox full-back is in line to become the only Scottish player in modern history to win every senior trophy in the national game. Wallace, 28, has already clinched League One and League Two titles, he secured the Championship earlier this week and could add the Petrofac Cup to his growing collection against Peterhead tomorrow. Wallace again stressed he never once contemplated walking away from Rangers during their four years of off-field strife and financial chaos and modest success on the park.

    Admitttedly, the former Hearts 
full-back conceded there were 
occasions during the regime of the discredited former board when he feared he might have to be sold to clear the decks of the club financially.


    Another World Record ? <laugh>

    And That'll be the "discredited former board" that included Paul Murray and Dave King?

    “THERE were a mixture of emotions for me, and I am sure a lot of people, on Tuesday night as Rangers beat Dumbarton to clinch the title and win promotion back to the Premiership. Like a lot of supporters, I was thinking of the die-hard Rangers fans who have passed away over the last four years and never got the chance to see their club back in the top flight. I also remembered my former team-mates like Sandy Jardine and Colin Jackson, two men who did so much for the club and are sadly no longer with us.

    Rangers Football Club meant the world to people like that and unfortunately they never got the chance to see them complete The Journey. It was great to see Rangers winning the title on Tuesday, but it means more than just the Championship trophy and a medal to me, as it will to so many other fans. I sat and reflected and have thought about so many people and just what the club has been through. Kenny McDowall’s dad, Andrew, was 83 and was sadly buried on his birthday on Thursday morning. Andy Bain spent nearly nine decades supporting Rangers and you could count on two hands the number of games he missed during that time. Both of them never got the chance to see the Gers back in the top flight and I was saddened to hear that Douglas Odam has passed away as well.

    Then you have Sandy, who worked tirelessly to keep Rangers going and was one of three or four who did so much during those dark days. And I thought about Colin, who was a terrific servant as a player and then gave so much to Rangers in later years. Every fan will have had similar thoughts over the last couple of days, they will be remembering people whose lives revolved around Rangers and it is sad that they never got the chance to see their team back where they belong. There will be people all over the world to whom Rangers meant so much and it will be emotional for their loved ones at this time, as it is for the fans who have been on the road with Rangers since that opening fixture of the campaign at Brechin in 2012.

    It has been a very long, tough four years, and you have to feel for the people that have been through it all inside Rangers. There have been some good times, but there have been plenty of bad ones on and off the park.”

    So I can’t say I’m surprised there are some people out there who are struggling to see the positive of Rangers’ title win. There’s so much resentment, bitterness and hatred flying around that some people can’t see the wood for the trees. But if fans of others clubs don’t want Rangers back then maybe they should ask their own chairmen, managers and players how they feel about it. I’m thinking about places like Fir Park, with that big stand behind the goal packed to the rafters and Rangers fans filling half the main stand too. I’m picturing a packed New Douglas Park, Killie opening the two stands behind their goals. Someone will need to explain to me how any of that is negative? Or, let me put it another way, is there a negative vibe going around because people simply don’t like Rangers? That may be closer to the truth and it says a lot about the mindset here in Scotland. Look, we are talking about one of the biggest clubs in the world coming back to our top flight which will have a positive effect on all the other clubs in that league – allowing them more money to bring in better players. What other country in the world would see that as a negative?

    I could be wrong, Spaz!, but I think it may be more to do with the fact yer clubs refuse to play by the same rules the rest of us have to.

    Ya ****in grade A plonker.

    So, a guy who couldn't get Brentford out of the Championship and then managed to win 2 lower league trophies in Scotland with a team with the second largest wage bill, is more impressive than a manager who has won bigger trophies and beaten one of the greatest teams to play, whilst also getting a Scottish team in to the last 16 of the CL.
    Even if you think Scottish football is ****e, then that makes reaching the last 16 and the results even more of an achievement, as opposed to doing what everyone expected Rangers to be doing, regardless of manager, whilst finally winning the diddiest cup in the country at the 4th attempt.

    Don't get me wrong, Lennon isn't an amazing manager in my opinion, but this puff piece about Warburton being some big mover and shaker in the football world because he almost got Brentford promoted is laughable.
