I would love to see Rangers escaping Scotland in my lifetime.
Only because of us and the unrinseables.
but its just us and the fiddlers! it doesnt make for good viewing from an outside perspective! i always cringe when we are playing away to a st johnston or a livingston and its live on Sky. No wonder the rest of the uk think we play in a pub league
thats clearly down to us!
Yeah nail on the head. Turgid defending shite with no will to attack apart from lumping the ball up front.
Europe is where the competition is for us or the scum nowadays. The league is purely a competition between us and them. Mostly them trying to catch us to make themselves feel a bit better. Us because it’s the route into the CL.
It’s baffling. They could sell thousands of extra tickets that they evidently can’t shift on their own. It’s not as if they are losing much of a sporting advantage, we have comfortably better players as it is. If they sold say 5k extra tickets x 2 at what, £30 a pop, it’s an additional £300k, which would pay for 2 additional players on £3k pw. That has to be to their benefit.
I think it would help but sadly I don’t see it coming.
Perhaps. It’s an interesting argument as to what the other clubs’ respective supports would be but for us and the mentally challengeds. Scotland is certainly a country dominated by football and as we see, it permeates into other areas of life (politics, mhedia, etc.).
Its the lower Premiership clubs, championship and leagues 1&2 that would have a problem with us being parachuted in, not to mention UEFA. Like it or not we are not wanted or needed down South or we'd have been there already.
Not sure how much it affects the crowds? There will be some impact but most games on tv contain us or the mentally challengeds and both clubs tend to sell their own tickets out, so you’re really looking at the impact on the home gate. I am not convinced it’s a big deal. The quality of the product and a lack of booze are bigger factors,
Perhaps but the likes of Belgium, Portugal and Holland have 2-3 times our population and realistically stadiums don’t hold 150,000 - 180,000. The point remains though bud that in some countries, big clubs skew the figures hugely. That is less of an issue in bigger countries, with more, bigger grounds.
there would be outrage when they build a decent team and want the seats back for thier own fans
I'd imagine aswel that if us and the fiddlers got that many fans they'd be on to a serious hiding every game against us and thier fans that do still go will end up jacking it they should just cut the price they all should try and fill thier grounds the products not worth the price that's how no one wants to go throw in the Scottish weather and regular soakings people would rather do better stuff for a lot less money imo rangers are my local team ma family are all bears a canny imagine what it's like to support one of the wee diddy teams a always notice how mince some of the teams we play are I'd prob be a bitter wee nat like the majority of them filled with hate and unhappiness 
Correct and we can play each other 7/8 times a season potentially. Last season 14 matches involved just Kilmarnock and the sheep. Talk about familiarity breeding contempt. Needs a bigger league.
