Football 2010-2011

I see you're still making 2+2 equal 5. See below.

So when he's doing what he's saying and there's a financial par in Scottish football, he's welcome to have what he wants IMO.

Until that time, it's ridiculous and laughable.

in the play off part of the draw, which was the real toughie

but less tough than the group stages which Rangers feel they have a right too.

no, 2+2 equals 4. you say rangers get a bye into the champions league. they don't. you're being a retard. still.

They do do. By the fact that they're guaranteed entry via the shit competition that's the SPL.

They're demanding that the Chumps works on an even financial basis. So why aren't they making the same demand for the SPL?

Don't come back with "it's not possible". It's no less possible than it is for the Chumps.

But the difference is that Rangers are in the position to bring it about themselves for the SPL - it's not like those other clubs would say "no we don't want some of your money". But they don't.

So they should shut up with their hypocritical crap about the Chumps.

my arguement has nothing to do with smiths comments on wanting to be closer to the big boys. it's about you saying rangers get a bye. when they clearly don't.

In effect they do.

When was the last year they weren't in the Chumps since there's been 2 places for Scottish teams? The answer is .... never!!!

The structure of the SPL near enough guarantees that Rangers will never finish lower than 2nd. So in effect they have a bye into the Chumps.

they're demanding f**k all! walter smith made some comments in a post match game.

he essentially said "the rules should be changed because we keep getting beaten". And then he probably stamped his feet to make the point more strongly, just like a two year old going "it's not fair".

It's ridiculous until such time as he recognises and acts upon the same claim by teams he plays against in Scotland.

and in effect, one scottish team gets a bye to the group stages. just as three english teams do. and three spanish. glasgow rangers football club do not get a bye into the champions league group stages. grasp this please. cos if celtic win the spl next year, you'll be saying the same for them. so where are they this year? oh look, they came 2nd in the league and lost the qualifier and aren't in it.

The qualies are a part of the Chumps. So Celtic were in it.

You get out of those qualies if you're good enough. They ain't good enough. Get over it.

you've taken that as what he meant.

No, that's what he meant. He meant that it's OK for Rangers to reap their advantage in Scotland, but that it's wrong for any club to do the same thing in Europe.

He explicitly said it about Europe, so that's not my interpretation.

He said nothing about the situation for Rangers in Scotland - clearly because it doesn't bother him, and because it pleases him.

So he's being the hypocrite I've been saying he's been, and he's annoyed about something that he's happy about IF it benefits Rangers.

He's being a turd. A very smelly one.

That is so last week...

[Cardboard Box City]

What the f**k happened to Juventus last night? 2-0 down at home, then 3-2 up only to concede again in the last minute to European giants Lech Poznan.

My accumulator went right out the window.
