As the fixtures are out, who thinks they'll lie down to Hearts on May 7th so they can win it against us. Will we beat them to delay the party to the following week with St Mirren at the piggery on May 20th?

lol people really think they will lie down and try not to win the league at Hearts, or the powers that be have done the fixtures to "try" and have a title party at Ibrox?

tin foil hat stuff on here
Done it against Hibs a few years ago so they could win it against us at the Piggery and pumped us 5-0.

They also threw a home game against Aberdeen to ensure we couldn’t finish 2nd, but we drew 5-5 with Hibs anyway.

Don’t put it past them.

The fact of the matter is it’s entirely in our hands to ensure they don’t win it at Ibrox. There are many ways of doing this and many ways it could play out.

It’s in our hands.

More importantly why is nobody asking why we are being asked to travel to Easter road for the third time this season, when we have only played them once at Ibrox?

What kind of league is this?

I'd rather they lifted it against hearts than at Ibrox. That would be the ultimate cherry on top to cap off this trainwreck of a season. With no fans at Ibrox at least they won't be able to mock us relentlessly with a title party
Yes - it shows how bad this season is when we'd rather they win it as soon as possible.
 
These last 5 games needs to see changes in the squad. Ridvan and McCrorie should be starting them with the likes of maybe Hagi.
McCrorie
Tav
Goldson
Souttar/Davies
Ridvan
Raskin
Cantwell
Tillman
Hagi
Sakala/Matondo
Morelos/Colak/Sakala

Nobody's asking because they'd be making a right c*nt of themselves, given that the split has been here for over 20 years now and everyone knows how it works...

But you already know that don't you ;)
 
Any reason why the Aberdeen game is on Sunday? No clash with them and not on TV according to SPFL website.

Because we have already played Hearts Aberdeen Hibs all away twice. We can't play 4 games at home in the split. It's nothing new, happens every year.

With any other club that might be the case but they've clearly set out to get beaten by teams several times over the last few decades just to get one over Rangers.

Losing to Aberdeen at home to deny us second place in 2018 (the only time they've lost at home to them in about 25 years)

Losing to Hibs in 2018 so they could win the title against us at home.

Losing to Hearts in 2006 to deny us a CL spot.

I'm honestly surprised that people are surprised about that mob using underhand tactics remember the Japanese tour?

The league split is a shambles but gloss right over that point to get a wee barb in if that’s your style bucko.No other league would tolerate such a shambles, imagine juventus playing away to Napoli more times than at home, imagine Bayern Munich playing away to Dortmund more than at home.

The fact there must be a special exception for the old firm so that it can never happen to us makes even more of a mockery of the entire set up.

Im sure you know all of this though.
 
The protocol for the split fixtures has been to avoid the Title being won in a Old Firm game it appears that this requirement has been diminished.
Absolutely, that unwritten rule came into effect after the scum couldn't behave in the shame game

Despite that we were told they would do all they could to avoid it happening again

If so then it should have been game 4

Im pretty sure a few years back under Rodgers, they conveniently drew with Hibs to allow them to win it v us

I fact I'm pretty sure there has been 3 occasions since dallas was coined

Yer some man Davie. Tremendous stuff. Have you got the 2004/05 hairdo as well? Spikey mullet with the shaved in sides?
 
Why do people do this pish every year? Your profile pic is a player from the late 80s so you know fine well how it works ffs.
It doesn’t work if teams are playing unbalanced fixtures.In any league worth its salt you play the same number of times home and away.So the league for me simply doesn’t work,and I’ve felt that way for a very long time,playing the same teams sometimes 5 or 6 times a season.Maybe some just shrug their shoulders and say well it’s been that way for years so let’s just accept it as the norm but it shouldn’t be.
 
Why is our Aberdeen game on the Sunday? Not selected for TV. I can only guess it's perhaps Rangers elected not to play the Saturday so it doesn't clash with the kings coronation?
