    Sevco are roughly where Rangers were before Murray came in and introduced financial cheatery on an epic scale. The sooner they realise that, the better for their health and that of their pet cats

    I think the problem is that they got used to success (by whatever means) under Murray, and there's an entire generation still believe they've some kind of entitlement to win and to be treated as some kind of special case.

    Remember the reaction when the yer man Brown said month ago that he expected the biggest test to Celtic in the league would come from Aberdeen? He was effectively ridiculed by those journalists who'd only months previously predicted the huns would win the title.

    When did any club come up from the 2nd tier and win the top tier the following season? I can't remember it happening. And yet these "experts" of the press seemed to think it the natural order of things. YCMIU

    Exactly

    It's been great watching them slowly waking up to reality and knowing that they're mere diddies in amongst the other diddy clubs now.

    Which journalists predicted Rangers would win the league?

    Anyone who predicted that should be locked up for their own benefit.

    Rob Kiernan - free, hopefully won't need paid off if he can find a club
    Martyn Waghorn - as above
    Danny Wilson - as above
    Harry Forrester - no way will we get a fee for him, and will need to pay him off
    Joe Garner - will maybe get £500,000 from a League 1 or 2 club down south
    Joe Dodoo - will be retained
    Andy Halliday - put up for sale, might get £250,000
    Jason Holt - might be retained
    Michael O'Halloran - makeweight in SPL deal...perhaps Aberdeen or Hibs?
    Jordan Rossiter - unknown
    Josh Windass - sell if we can....maybe aim for £750,000 or more if we can !! Bucket loads of Delusionalness....
    Dundee sold Marvin Johnson for £600k.

    Is anyone suggesting we couldn't get the same fee for Waghorn, Kiernan, Wilson and Garner ?

    My guess ?

    We'll punt McKay, Kiernan, Hodson, Waghorn, Garner and Wes for money. And we'll make around £5/6m on them !!

    That's a decent chunk for Pedro to play with.

    Hugh Keevins for one. Fairly sure that Fat Derek did too. There were a couple in the tabloids as well.

    The very fact that they weren't laughed out of it shows that behind it all there is an assumption, contrary to any actual evidence or track record, that somehow the huns will get through and win trophies and prosper. They've learnt nothing from their previous incarnation and are destined to make the same mistakes all over again unless they get a severe dose of reality pronto.

    SFA bestowing Gold Status compared to Silver for Hearts simply beggars belief but there are some in position that appear to have vested interest in keeping TRFC front and centre - despite their piss-poor on pitch performances.

    Nail on the head, Sevco have taken up the natural position of Rangers before Murray came along.

    I'd prefer if Celtic were at the same level as then as well, maybe have some serious competition
