I have faith in God... I don't have faith in the men who run Rangers (nor do I even have a dog in the fight). Just saying... with all of the unfulfilled promises and problems related to finances, how can the thought of further downsizing not have crossed the fans minds?

You're deluded if you have faith in God. You'd be better spent having faith in King. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Firstly, you were  long before that post. And secondly, I never mentioned or indicated Armageddon. My comment was consistent with the continuing 'erosion' on and off the park at Rangers.

Except they are, as the article actually says. Otherwise who'd be playing the friendlies? Reading too many Bible verses has affected your ability to read properly it seems. ?

er yir macaroon Posted May 17, 2017 Share Posted May 17, 2017 Rangets supposedly have very good u17 players. They are trying to address the thing we all moan about - the drop off after this age group. They will play lower league first teams every month in addition to the same age groups at the elite clubs. For years our players have frozen when coming up against the unknown (pumping out of Europe in preliminary rounds etc) - this may help address the problem by playing against different players and styles, instead of the usual faces for the hundredth time.
