Rangers win the league

Wat a way for Celtic to throw the league away! Crazy shenanigans. For those who dont know, Motherwell scored twice in the last two minutes to beat Celtic and hand Rangers the league.

Pity it wasnt on a proper tv channel so everyone could see it.

I knew we would win! I'm so happy.............oh so happy.

/waits for pummeling

super_furry · 22-05-2005 04:21PM

Nearly as bad as Liverpool in 1989, but at least they were playing the team that won the title, Motherwell didn't even have anything to play for. Shameful.

DELIGHTED!!!!!!

smemon · 22-05-2005 04:22PM

typical. :rolleyes: :mad:

Congratulations Rangers.

super_furry · 22-05-2005 04:24PM

Yeah, fair play to them. They kept playing until the final whistle and has just kept McLeish in a job.

It'll be interesting to see what O'Neill says after this, especially with all the speculation over his future today.

el rabitos · 22-05-2005 04:31PM

maybe o'neil will go back down south now and get a real job. how anyone goes into a season, with the only question being if your team will finish 1st or 2nd is beyond me.

Zaph · 22-05-2005 04:31PM

Scottish football? Meh.

fade2black · 22-05-2005 04:33PM

They threw it away. Just advertises how bad that league is. O Neill will leave and the standard of football up there will plummit even further.

WhiteWashMan · 22-05-2005 05:06PM

have to admit im surprised, and then again, im really not.
the way the league has gone for the last 2 months, back and forth, it was all to play for.

i really didnt think celtic would lose after beating rangers at ibrox last time out though.
it really is a case of celtic lost the league rather than ranger winning it, but still, am happy with the win.
at least it was pretty exciting!

case n basket · 22-05-2005 05:54PM

LOL, go on Rangers

Chong · 22-05-2005 06:03PM

Exactly scotch football sucks glad to see Rangers win.

dceire · 22-05-2005 06:21PM

Go on da Rangers

That'll shut the part-time celtic fans up for a while

eyerer · 22-05-2005 06:26PM

for some reason im not especially surprised....lol
meh

Looked like things were going to get Ugly for while at Easter Road, with the Rangers Fans Invading the pitch. The Hibs fans were quite restrained although there were a few issues and the Cops had to dispense a few slaps to some. It was quite surprising that there was not a lot of trouble at the ground.

A Dub in Glasgo · 22-05-2005 06:37PM

Just back from Firpark and to say I am totally stunned is the understatement of the year. I hope the players and fans get over this for next weekend at Hampden. This is just a disaster though. This is a classic case of throwing away the league title. I would imagine that the Rangers fans are just as stunned.

As for the whooping of joy displayed here and the comments about part time Celtic fans, well dear God that is some cheek considering this place is the alter to the EPL and the majority of those fans probably have not got closer to a football game than their remote control!

Now to drown my sorrows :mad:

That'll do nicely. This sort of thing is also the reason I'd rather see Rangers win the SPL than Celtic.

2 league titles in the last 3 years which we have lost on goal difference.

And before anyone says it, if we had the better goal difference we wouldn't have put 10 men in the oppositions box and wouldn't have conceded the 2nd goal. Celtic didn't deserve it though, way to many slip ups this season.

Coming 2nd will make a real difference and I feel a lot worse than I did this time in 2003.

And MON will not go down south. If he is leaving Celtic at the end of the season it will be because of his wife's illness. He might even take a year out but he will not be going to another club any time soon. How can he stay in such a crap league? Well there's on average 12 European matches a season to look forward to. He's also a fan of Celtic and owns 9% of the club.

Now I'm off back out to drown my sorrows.

how could you support rangers are you irish

Maybe that will open a can of worms but while there are people on here that genuinely support Rangers, plenty like to see them fail for whatever reason.

How an Irishman can choose an anti-Irish club (Rangers fans can't actually decide whether to support Celtic or Ireland on May 29th) over one which carries the Irish flag everywhere they go is beyond me. Its up to you though.

Badabing · 22-05-2005 07:33PM

I can't belive it what happened in the the last 20 minutes? after Johnny went off it was backs to the wall , can you blame Martin? I think you have to, were 1-0 up and all over them, we backed off why?ok we should have scored a couple of goals, but the last 20 minutes we played very defensive and were invited them on to us.

gandalf · 22-05-2005 07:58PM

Congrats to Rangers.

Celtic and Rangers are both from Glasgow, and the last time I checked Glasgow was in Britain.

If you want to support "Irish" football, why not get down to the nearest eircom League game next friday?

You know, it was sad the way the so-called Celtic supporters turned up in Tolka Park on Saturday for the Setanta Cup Final. Taunting an Irish side (Linfield) with the flag of a British club (Celtic). Muppets.

they certainly didn't turn up to cheer the other Irish club involved, Shelbourne. And leave the flags/jersies behind.

Slag off Celtic all you want but i'm a Celtic fan for 20 years and proud i,ve been too Liverpool and Manchester and a few others but no club comperes to Glasgow Celtic.

_blank_ · 22-05-2005 08:20PM

For the record, I'm not slagging Celtic, or anything like it.
