Got to laugh at the revisionists at the Scotsman. Today they have a story trying to blame the woes of the national team on sevcos "demotion".
First of all, sevco didn't get demoted they lost their place when oldco liquidated. The newco are just a tribute act to the oldco. Secondly, how can you blame the woes of the national team on the demise of rangers? From my recollection Scotland were just as pish when rangers still existed.

If you found that funny rab try reading kris boyds article in the sun it's hilarious mate.
Similar dribble along the lines of the national team has paid the price because the rangers got relegated.
He contradicts himself constantly throughout the article.

18 years without qualifying. Last 4 of those was without Rangers. It's a total non argument.

Read Boyds pish, and don't know if if made me angry or laugh. They really are a bunch of delusional sods, let's not forget how crap Scotland have been for past 20 years, and the sfa kicked them down the leagues arghhhh.

They are trying desperately to create a narrative of Rangers importance to Scottish football and no doubt those gullible bears will buy it hook line and sinker. However, the rest of us sane folk know that it is complete bollocks. A fact backed up when armageddon failed to ensue, despite being prophesied by their lackeys.

I personally don't mind reading provan or hartson in the sun.
I don't even mind reading the zombie journalists, it's always a laugh reading how times are hard and it's everyone else's fault but there own.
I'm not bitter enough to ever let the opinions of others influence my own or to let it get under my skin.
Plus my Mrs makes me buy it at weekends for the magazine.

He actually said the Scottish players they had suffered because they played in the division 3.
I thought naismith moved to everton and i'm sure mcgregor went to besiktas. He also didn't mention the Scottish players they did sign were fully aware of the league the club where playing in so it was those players choice to play there lol.

The only thing that shocked me about Boyd's column is that it wasn't written in crayon! He's hardly the brightest bulb in the pack! Lol. it says more about the halfwits who allow these things to go to print than it does about people like Boyd! They'll use any excuse to mention the fact that the old rangers got put down in Scotlands 4th tier! It really is quite pathetic! Just like they're so called attempt to stop the champs stroll to 6 in a row! #goingfor55! 😱😜😂HH.

It really was just Wallace the rest probably prospered getting away from a toxic atmosphere that was building around that place.

It's just typical of their arrogance, they'll be telling us next that their cheating and dishonesty was actually beneficial to the Scottish game.
Too many of them over there still can't see how much they have shamed football in this country.
I've no doubt that their solutions to the problems in the Scottish game would involve bribing officials at FIFA, and try to get more masonic referees taking charge of Scotland matches.
It's all quite simple really.

Crayon lol like it 😆.

@wiss81 - it gets into the papers because of who is on the rangers payroll and their friends in high places.
Jack Irvine used to orchestrate things for oldco and Jim traynor is doing the same for newco. The fact that it made the Scotsman suggests David Murray is still involved at rangers as this stinks of his Edinburgh connections.

Interesting take on the media and control. When I was at school (not quite chalk and slates) I had to meet with the careers officer. I told him I really wanted to get into journalism. He asked If I had relatives or friends already in. When I said no, he suggested other careers. We met in the pub across from the school a couple of days later and off the record (there's a pun if ever) he told me I was at the wrong school and kicked with the wrong foot. He told my big mate, John Bourke, that he had heard Rangers were interested in him but the school etc. made it a non- starter. (John ended up signing for Dundee Utd) .
