Let's seperate fact from opinion, old firm fans ?

Can we all agree that attacking, positive football, twinned with a good team, or squad, of players results in more goals being scored ?

Yes ? Then we can proceed.

SPL, so far:

Sellick: Played 35 scored 79

Rangers: Played 32 scored 76

My point is, Rangers need score only 4 goals from 3 games to surpass Brazil, sorry Sellick, for goals scored. If Sellick attack constantly, and have the best players/squad, how come they are not say, 20 or 30 goals ahead than Rangers ?

You can apply this logic as to why they are out of both domestic cups, to laughable opposition. Because they were not attacking, (and thus entertaining) enough to score more than their oppostion.
Why can't they win against ANYONE away in Europe ? Because they are not attacking, (and thus entertaining) enough to score more than their opposition.

Now lets hear your response to facts, as opposed to opinion ?

Fully expect either nonsense or silence for this one.

Mon the bears ..................
Cardinal, look up the defintion of the word 'Folly', or sorry, get a grown-up to explain what the word means. Then you will realise how apt it is that you chose to use it as your title. Coupled with your icon, it confirms you to be a clown.

Was that supposed to be an answer ? Read the QUESTION, think about it and get depressed.

Mon the Bears .................
Oracle, thank you for conceding that your lot (narrowly) defeated a Rangers side that was miles from full-strength. Accepted.

The oft-exaguratted claim of the amount of Sellick fans in Seville ?

Hmmmmm.

The mans point is a matter of fact, not geograhy, but thanks for the 'lesson' in any case. The Rangers support WILL surpass any previous attendance anywhere and at any time. That's your real worry.

Now, do you fancy answering my question about fact and opinion ? Anyone ?
Rangersbub.....

Who gave you permission to address me by my christian name ?

Listen, if you fancy a trip to Dunoon to back up your insults with actions, there is a ferry every hour at twenty past the hour from Gourock. Lucky for you, the hospital is only about a mile away from the pier. On second thoughts, don't bother. I don't want my 11 year old nephew to beat sense into someone who is less mentally mature than him.

Grow up and bugger off son. The adults are talking.

That is exactly what the Celtic fans want to know. Rangers aren`t winning the league. Celtic are losing it. This is a really poor Rangers squade that has been kept in the title race by a lack of suspensiosn and injuries. Until now. But even so, Celtic should stil;l have been good enough to out point rangers over the course of the season.

An attacking team may score more goals but they will also concede more.

The truth is Rangers have played on large, one man up front for much of the season. It hasnt stopped us scoring.

The whole "anti football" idea was thought up by a pised off barca player who threw his dummy out of the pram in frustration that their superstars couldnt break down a rag-tag bunch of scots on their own soil. They feel they have the devine right to play THEIR game on their terms. Rangers dismantled that idea at Ibrox. Soaked up their runs forward. Backs to the wall stuff indeed, and Rangers defence is solid.

Thats not anti football, thats a £25million team playing against a £150million (minimum) team. You going to throw novo, darcheville and boyd forward in a game like that? No. Even Strachan used that tactic in europe.

You only have to look at games like sporting, lyon, the earlier celtic game where we ended up showboating at ibrox. That is what the team is capable of.

We have scored enough goals to show we arent playing boring football. Yes at times it has been frustrating not to see a bit of flair. But weve lost DMB and Buffell hasnt played much. Hutton is gone. Players who could make runs forward and cause huge problems. Down to the basics, we are still capabale and still the strongest team in the SPL.

Makeshift cannot begin to describe the team we had against celtic. Yet all they could do is win with a penalty.

Says quite a lot about our entire squad really - and the poor quality of theirs, with their best on the pitch. Thats why i will never use it as an excuse for losing - our squad is big enough and strong enough to cope.

We will win the league. Its not about a couple of games lost (first two in the spl since october may i add). Its about consistency over an entire season.

League 52 is coming to Ibrox. The Scottish cup is coming to Ibrox. And if we can manage to beat Fiorentina this week, we will have the biggest travelling support at a european final ever - its almost a home game. And 20-30,000 bears doing the bouncy in the city of Manchester stadium will make it a home game.

The party is just beginning.

We are the people.

Aye true enough Billy, moan the bears right enough!!!!!
Just look at the rant from Erradafty, I love a bit of spin but he has spun out of control with that reply. If Rangers win five games then they win the league and if they beat Fiorentina, then they go to Manchester for the final but record breaking travelling support? Does he know how far away Seville is? 80,000 estimated by TV but I would say 79,999 myself. Rangers have done well but it has been lucky and now we will see if they can handle the run-in without their best players and suspensions to back-up players. Look at the team Rangers finished with against Celtic, they may have to push for the line. Does it fill you with hope or horror?

Billy you have used way to much intelect in your question for the tims who have so far tried to answer your question, try break it down to the level of an uneducated muppet, you might have more succes, although i doubt it.
