Can someone break down his second paragraph for me? I'm at a loss to explain how he's reached his conclusion that Protestants are the real victims.

Read the first page, not sure there's a bigger set of embittered halfwits anywhere on earth.

They've had empty stadiums over the past 2 years
When you've won zero major titles you need to boast about something I guess

I love how they revel in **** like that
That's the sign of an embittered, small club mentality. The highest attendance for a club game was Celtic vs Aberdeen, 146000. Imagine starting a thread on that
given they used Arsenal playing a champions league game at wembley, why not throw in celtic v leeds at hampden in 1970. was there not 140k at that?
****ing hell
OUR Light Blues blogger Jonathan McFarlane reckons the Ibrox chairman should be applauded for the turnaround he has orchestrated since taking charge. THERE can be fewer individuals more divisive than Rangers chairman Dave King in Scottish football.
For many he’s a ‘glib and shameless liar’, a charlatan who doesn’t have the money to cash the cheques he writes with his very loud mouth. In contrast, for the army of Rangers fans who have watched his revolution since wresting the club from the clutches of Mike Ashley, he’s fast becoming a legend.
It’s now impossible to look at the huge strides the club has made and not marvel at the board’s achievements, the recent, brilliant series of communications with the fans serving to further strengthen this extremely satisfying body of work. On the pitch the club has been promoted, playing the most exciting brand of football since the big-spending Advocaat era. We have a modern, professional manager who is bringing the elite standards of the English Premier League.
The entire infrastructure has been refreshed with key appointments made behind the scenes with the club having appointed some impressive individuals in important areas. Long gone are the days when ex-rangers players whose only qualification was being ‘a rangers man’ being put in key structural positions.
Off the pitch season ticket sales are buoyant and heading towards the club record. The club’s supporters are galvanised and united. Billionaire Mike Ashley has been kicked from pillar to post in the courts and is looking like a faded force in events.
What’s not to like I wonder?
It’s often held over King that he suggested he would spend 30 million on the club and hasn’t delivered but many of us at the time felt this kind of quantum should only be used as a part of a long term plan to deliver the club to the top. The hubris and showmanship of the Murray era wasn’t something to be welcomed and the club had to get away from being pressured into making constant short term plans to appease fickle fans. King and his board seem to have delivered that with a steady as you go approach to funding.
Money has been pumped in behind the scenes to pay for the very obvious shortfall that has been highlighted in the club accounts. Those who continually remind us that the club is a loss making business without a credit line from a bank can’t have it both ways. The board are doing their bit to help the club in its journey to self-sustainability by digging into their own pockets.
This represents a personal sacrifice that should never be forgotten.
It’s tempting to draw parallels with what has been achieved to Fergus McCann who undoubtedly saved Celtic in their time of crisis but the difference is in the detail.
McCann smelt business opportunity and walked away with a huge profit. His motives were not altruism, and the good state of Celtic on his departure was simply a happy by-product of his reign rather than the key objective. Perhaps that’s why he departed to a chorus of boos although that has been swept away in a reformed, revisionist history.
King on the other hand is no McCann. He will make no gain, no swag bag of financial reward. Success on the park is no mere by-product, it’s the principal aim.
Perhaps it’s this truth, that rankles with so many.
In this club, which proudly hangs a portrait of the monarch in the dressing room, perhaps even the most staunch royalist will accept a new motto: ‘long live the King’.

McCann saved Celtic. They weren't liquidated, he turned them in to a properly run club, building one of the largest stadiums in Europe in the process, and ensured a future for the team which has included over 25 trophies since he took over and a UEFA Cup Final. He also said from the offset that he was buying Celtic to put them on an even keel, stay for 5 years, win the league, and then sell up, and that's what he did, so to say it was merely a by-product of his plan is ****ing ridiculous. He was always a Celtic fan too, and what he has done for the club cannot be understated. The only revisionism that's occurred about his tenure was that fans would now state that they regret being so negative about it during those early years.
Whereas Dave King helped Rangers die, gave interviews stating they were going to die to numerous media outlets, is a convicted criminal, and other than managing to stop Rangers dying a second time so far (which is mainly thanks to Mike Ashley) is in no way comparable or even close to what McCann did for Celtic.
