Rangers were the first British team to play in the Champions League back in the day when it was champions only.

Now it's just a cup competition.

Liverpool could win it, even though they haven't been the champions of England for years.

It's a farce.


I do agree with you. The problem is as I've explained before, you'd have champions of inferior leagues going straight into a competition against the five top leagues in Europe, the semi finals would never change, year in year out.

Plus the Europa league would then have huge clubs in it that didn't happen to win their league and the calibre of teams in the Europa league would overshadow it's more important brother. It pretty much happened this season.

Well they should change the name of the Champions League.

Having a team win it, who aren't champions, just makes a mockery of it.

There's talk of Jermaine Defoe moving to Rangers.

Jermaine said himself, if he got a phone call from Steven Gerrard, he would certainly think about moving to Glasgow.

He said Stevie G is a player a lot of players have respect for.

Former Gers Captain Barry Ferguson said the thought of winning silverware, would also tempt Defoe.

It's the Scottish Cup Final tomorrow and the Bhoys take on the Steelmen.

It should be a good game but not a game, I'll watch from start to finish.

Just check the score from time to time.

Yes, the West London rent boys won. Not that I give a fuck about them, can't stand them, just that Manchester United haven't equalled our record.
