The above fae Mason sums it up exactly for me - I know I probably should, but I just can’t get past this.

For years we knew everything was stacked against us, finance, governance, media, geography, everything.

Despite that, despite the constant disappointments of the last 25 years and despite the fact we must have at some point countenanced this 11-1 debacle, the financial splits, TV rights rules & everything else that massively favours the cheeks, I remained hugely emotionally invested in my team.

Then Rangers died. We had a once in a lifetime opportunity to change the whole setup. The balance of power, the finances, the governance, summer football (if we wanted) everything that is completely stacked against us. I couldn’t wait.

Yet what happened? Nothing.

Why? Because an Aberdeen chairman, yes the chairman of my club AFC, decided that the status quo - basically what we saw yet again today - was preferable to removing the power from the cheeks and allowing the majority to decide what’s what.

Not only that, he also rubbed it in time and again with his constant rimming of the hun and his appalling “Scottish football needs a strong Rangers” chat.

We also raised not a peep about the same club pish and the fact they basically got let off scot free with years of deliberate and systematic cheating. Aye, cheating that caused our club severe financial difficulties and meant thousands of us paid thousands of pounds to watch a rigged league. Milne couldn’t care less about any of that. I simply couldn’t believe it.

Now we hear recently that Celtic kyboshed any chance of an Atlantic League - despite the likes of us wanting to at least explore the possibility - because it didn’t suit them.

Quite happy for us to vote with them on 11-1, but as soon as something we liked the look of didn’t suit them, we can fuuck off.

No surprise there though for anyone with any common sense. What a shower of spineless mugs they must think we are.

So now we’re at the point where almost all that emotional investment and the commitment I had, has pretty much gone.

I can’t see me getting a ST again any time soon. I watch the games, keep an eye on what’s going on, but the passion I had has all but disappeared. The hun winning the league will probably finish it off completely if I’m honest.

I’d love it if he could, but I can’t really see anyway Cormack can get that back.

This is Milne’s legacy. Utterly appalling and for me personally, rather sad actually, that I now feel like this about the club I’ve followed for over 40 years...
Think this post totally sums up how I feel about the club right now. In the past I would have been right up for a game like this. Today I went outside and washed the cars. Couldn’t even muster the enthusiasm because you knew what was coming. Came inside at one point just in time to see the inevitable red card and penalty. Shrugged my shoulders and went back outside.

I really don’t know what cormack can do because I think this apathy is going through so many fans that when they are eventually allowed back in the stadium I don’t know what sort of support we’ll have left.
