Ed007, going to retire for the night. The site got a lot of interesting posts, maybe Rangers should go bust EVERY week ha ha. Timalloy (tag attached)
Leave you with a smile ( can false "timalloy" do that?)
Sally has told the Rangers players to come out the tunnel holding hands (ala Brazil) when asked if this was a team bonding exercise, Sally said "No it's to stop all the Catholics now in my team from BLESSING THEMSELVES! {Ed007's Note - Night mate, sleep well.}

"No it's to stop all the Catholics now in my team from BLESSING THEMSELVES!

why was this even posted ?
so it ok to bring up sectarianism when talking about rangers ? if i new how i would complain to the top ed this just not right we are trying to rub this s**t out how low can u guys get {Ed007's Note - It was a joke/banter. No other Rangers fan has complained, so I can only assume that you you are nitpicking and seeing a problem where there is none. You can complain, but you need to leave an e-mail address for me to reply to you.}

If you do see why i would what to complain then ur just as bad as the poster and i see no point in doing so if even the eds think its fine to post bigoted hate even in the forum of a joke / banter then whats the point ? last ever post on a site that allows sectarianism in any way shape or forum ( you do know if it was a rangers fan that posted this all hell would have broke out) {Ed007's Note - OK, bye. Sorry to inflict so much emotional distress on such a delicate flower as yourself.}

Perhaps Whyte knew what he was taking on? Perhaps he knew about the tax situation? Daaa? Whyte knows he can buy the tax man for breakfast then buy Celtic for lunch.

Possibly playing the game and keeping it quiet... Refusing to invest and loose it to the tax man or go bankrupt.

Possibly playing the waiting game then when the debt it clear and/or agreed settlement he will then invest more at the next transfer window and say... Told u so.

He is the sort of guy that wont pay 100% old debt. He will agree a settlement fee. 50%?60% 70%? It takes time.

At the end of the day we dont need no gatusso to win the spl because we have the strongest team as it stands.

I didn't know Carstairs had a computer.

Jungle Bhoy. {Ed007's Note - HMRC have already refused the Rangers settlement proposals.}

Fact

Ed007, I know you keep saying, Celtic need Rangers and vice versa, but if you think back pre Fergus, when Celtic were on its knees financially and Rangers won the league every year, did it harm Rangers that we were weak? No they went on and played in Champions league got stronger both on and off the park, it only hurts if BOTH teams are struggling both financially and on the park. Fergus has left us a legacy of financial prudence, we never adopted the murky antics of Rangers to attract players. Celtic are on a sound footing, and if we win the league this year and get into group stages of champions league, we will get stronger. No we dont need rangers, a few years in soapy bubble will be just rewards for their poor handling of things, and lets hope Celtic DO Ten in a row. hail hail Timalloy {Ed007's Note - The game has moved on from then Tim, it is all about money. I'm not talking about Rangers going into administration, I am talking about liquidation, there is a BIG difference. Any one who thinks that the rivalry between CFC and Rangers is not the big attraction for investment is deluded. As for the talk that if Rangers 'go bust' we will be welcomed into the EPL, nonsense. Rangers will not 'go bust', yes maybe administration but there will always be a Rangers and the EPL or any English league would want both teams, the only reason this will ever happen is because of money. CFC v Rangers games in the EPL would be a massive draw audience wise for Sky, they wouldn't take one without the other, if at all.}

See as well to be honest...I don't want to play is something call the 'English' league. I don't want to get all political but we are a Glasgow, Scotland side & would seriously want the name changed. I know there's no chance.

Ed007, that is what I was talking about above, a few years with Rangers weaker on all fronts will not harm Celtic, yes if they went out of business, but as you say someone will step in and buy them on the cheap. See Rangers fans are pinning their hopes on King being some sort of saver, this is guy who is being investigated for tax fraud in south africa, Rangers dealings just get murkier and murkier. If you were to write a book about all this, people would tell you to make book realisitic, sometimes truth is stranger than fiction. Timalloy {Ed007's Note - Tim, I will gloat as much as the next man, I remember the pre-Fergus days very well as you know. The Rangers fans gloating, the hearse outside Celtic Park and the broken club crest headlines (strange Rangers problems don't share the same media coverage). I am just pointing out the pitfalls from a subjective point of view about the financial implications as a whole.}

Yes Ed007, we all remember the press coverage and how they loved the broken crests etc.., that is why Celtic fans are loving it so much, we are getting TWICE the pleasure seeing all the bears AND their newspaper supporters in so much bother. But yes we dont want gers going out of business, a plague on their houses, but one they can recover from in TEN years ha ha Timalloy

Due to rangers deepening financial problems ... at next week's Old Firm game the captains will do "paper scissors stone" instead of tossing a coin .

It's the Ref that provides the coin. God help us if it was Rangers that provided the coin cause if yous did lose the toss Celtic would be on the phone to the SFA, Uefa, FIFA and FARE.

Everyone is having a good laugh at the filth because of the state they are in and believe me I am probably
Laughing louder than most but has anyone else thought what it would mean to the hoops should the shame go under? We would be f**ked. Europe is less and less likely every year and the only game we have to look forward to is rangers. No1 would sign for us as there is no showpeice game and eventually we would be humped. It wouldn't take long for us to follow suit as attendances would drop and players would leave. What you think ed? {Ed007's Note - I have said before that CFC and Rangers need each other for commercial purposes.}

NO we don't ...Liverpool don't Everton, Man Utd don't need Man City and we don't need rangers. If one of the Old Firm is liquidised it would force the matter of Scottish Football and it could only get better. Everytime something goes wrong with one half of the Old Firm, thats all the talk is we can't survive without the other..why ? I need justification and not just 'commercial reasons' what does that mean ? Third Lanark were huge is Scotland at one point and the game survived.. {Ed007's Note - If Rangers or CFC went into liquidation, TV money, sponsorship money and outside interest in Scottish football would fall drastically. That is 'commercial reasons'. How much of a damp squib are cup finals when it isn't CFC v Rangers? Sure we win the cup, but fans of both sides, TV and sponsors want the two teams in the final. The league would end up like the Welsh or Irish leagues, a bit part player with mediocre players, serious lack of money and a very grim financial outlook. As for Europe, forget getting anywhere even near group stages of the Europa League never mind the riches of the CL. Your comparison with the EPL really doesn't stand any ground, Man Utd need not just Man City, but also Liverpool, Chelsea, Arsenal etc, they all need each other to keep their league as strong as it is to compete at the top level and the money rolling in.}

So what you are saying is we are 1 team away from being an Irish or Welsh league ? {Ed007's Note - In terms of appeal to outsiders, finance and chance of progression in football terms, yes.}

Listen baw*ag, the hi hi went bust when players got £3 pw wages ya halfwit. If rangers go bust we would really struggle to pay samaras his £20k pw wages ya balloon. Man utd need man city and Liverpool need everton because the fans wait all season for those games and it means more! Away back to the fishing talk page because you don't have a clue what is going on in the game. Obviously! Ed block the asylum ip address so this rocket can't reply {Ed007's Note - Would there even be any great need for season tickets?}

Glad we cleared that up ! Now we can continue with the banter

This is Celtic accounts...feel free to see how much revenue we would loss from TV. When Setanta went out of business, the renewed contacts with Sky + ESPN were no where near as lucrative. Man City were relegated in the late 90's & Man Utd did just fine... Now don't get on your high horse all over again, i'm just offering an alternative opinion {Ed007's Note - There is no comparison between the SPL and the EPL, why are Celtic and Rangers so keen to move there? There league is strong, the only strength Scottish football has is Celtic and Rangers. Man Utd v Liverpool is a fiercer match than a Manchester derby, the rivalry between the clubs/cities goes much further than football. I am quite aware of CFCs finances and I am also aware of the scale of the drop of revenue that Rangers liquidation (not administration) would bring on Scottish football and CFC. To win a vote in the SPL committee you need to win 11-1, that is for a reason, CFC and Rangers will stick together to protect their larger chunk of the pie, so won't vote against each other. Or do you think that Peter Lawwell sits and throws wee bits of wet paper at Rangers directors during SPL meetings? You should also note the strange coincidence regarding the fact that we have shared shirt sponsors for years, surely CFC and Rangers officials don't meet these companies together to thrash out deals? Again, they are marketing the rivalry between the clubs to maximise financial income.}

You call that banter, using deragatory language and not giving a name, that is the cowards way of banter.We DONT need rangers as long as Celtic can continue to make money, and with a weaker rangers we would be in europe every year, hopefully even be invited to EPL now all the rangers baggage is away. Rangers keep dragging us down as we are associated as Old Firm, every time rangers fans cause trouble the English blame "Old Firm" fans when they should be blaming rangers. I hope rangers go into administration, watch Celtic FLOURISH hail hail Timalloy

All right then...I know the comparisons are poor (sums thing up really) but I don't think it would be the end you would imagine. If any old firm went into administration, it would be a mere setback that's all. Couldn't see any of our debts ever getting that huge that the business as a whole would have to be liquidised. Anyway, its a pointless argument and no-one is going anywhere. Interested to see where Mr Whyte is going with this American thing...If a TV channel over there buy's in could be huge for SPL (and yes, I can see Peter Lawwell throwing wet paper)

I think you can argue both cases. The truth is that whilst remaining in Scotland we probably do need Rangers for commercial purposes and to add some much needed rivalry/interest. It is possible an alternative would emerge (say Hearts) but it wouldnt be the same. That said, if by some miracle we were to move to an English or british league we'd have no major need for them at all IMO, much as the poster above mentioned about the likes of Liverpool and Everton. The difference for now though is that the Old firm is the only show in town whereas down south they've a number of big teams so the ed is right. That said, I'm not sitting here worrying about it. I'll leave that to them! Paul

I'm not worried about the dimise of SPL either if rangers are liquidised but its defo not black and white then we need each other to suvive. Unfortunately, i think the whole thing is nothing more than a major embarrassment for them given its a 'dispute' to HM that is giving the bother.

We would be financially sound if rangers went bust. We would be practically guaranteed champs league money every year. {Ed007's Note - The co-efficient?}

Timalloy does that mean you can hid behind a silly tag and call people cowards ? how brave you are. paddy

Fellow tims - I am looking for help. I have tried looking everywhere online to find a poster of brown v diouf (goal celebration). Anyone able to point me in the right direction. Any help would be much appreciated.

Sorry mate i can`t help you but i put some pics on the celtic sightings for you.

Why don't you just print off one of the pics that you can find in Google images onto photo paper and stick in a frame?
I personally think that pic should be on tshirts,mugs,wallpaper,etc

Jungle Bhoy.

Did you see the one of douif doing the brown with his championship medal? {Ed007's Note - Doing the Brown?? Oh matron!!!}

El hadj doing the brown at ibrox home coming after doing kilmarnock......priceless {Ed007's Note - Can we please stop with the homosexual innuendos about RatBoy?}
