Yeah Yeah m8 you's could end up with nothing but the league cup, still some big games to be played.....
there are only two sensible posts in this whole thread. The ones that look at what it cost the non old firm with the dodgy decisions. Aberdeen denied a point Dundee united denied a point (poss more.) The Rangers Celtic thing on dodgy desicions has evened out now. But Aberdeen and Dundee utd have suffered. Think about it guys.
Ps im happy to take any desicion that comes our way. We need all the luck we can get.
Lets get behind Rangers now for Wednesday and wish them luck as a win will benefit all of Scottish football.
Oh and country boy i dont expect you to wish us luck for Wednesday lol. More chance of me getting 6 numbers in the lotto lol

'Stupid Scottish White Guy'
Levein gets stuck right in!
Dundee United boss Craig Levein has launched a scathing attack on referee Mike McCurry following his team's 3-1 defeat to Rangers at Ibrox - claiming he 'bottled' crucial decisions.
The win allowed Rangers to slash Celtic's lead at the summit of the CSPL to a single point but ended United's hopes of a third-place finish and a Uefa Cup slot for next season.
Levein argued his side should have had a penalty, David Weir should have
been shown a red card as a result of his foul in the incident, and that a perfectly good goal by Danny Swanson was incorrectly disallowed for offside.
Levein confronted referee McCurry in a touchline exchange, and revealed afterwards: "I said to him that we were as well not turning up. What was the point? We were as well going home.
"Mike could have phoned me this morning and said: 'Look, Rangers are going to get the three points today - just tell your lads to stay in the house.'
Impossible
"It's impossible to win here in important games. The referee has bottled it at the penalty - that was my thoughts if you want to know the truth. He knew, if he had given the penalty, he would have had to send Davie Weir off.
"Swanson's goal was a good goal. It hit Davie Weir and went in.
"Important decisions are what referees are judged on. The players are furious. We played well today.
"If we had got a penalty, and got back to 2-1 and with them down to 10 men, I would have fancied us strongly to win the game because I thought we were the better side.
"That guy today knew it was a penalty kick but knew the game was so important to Rangers that he couldn't give it.
"The linesman has probably had an even better view than the referee but he's not going to put his head above the parapet.
"It's Rangers, at Ibrox, so you can't win. An important game going for a title decider? You can't have Dundee United winning that game."
Accusations
Levein also accused Kirk Broadfoot of punching Noel Hunt in the face and Daniel Cousin of headbutting Lee Wilkie.
"I tell you what will happen now, I'll get my wrists slapped for having a go at the referee," added Levein.
"I'll be sitting in front of six or eight guys at some disciplinary committee in two or three weeks' time, getting a fine.
"After the [CIS Insurance] Cup final, I did my absolute best not to have a go at the referee [Kenny Clark] for denying us a blatant penalty but maybe people are mistaking kindness for weakness on my part.
"There is no doubt that if you add what happened today to what happened in the cup final, I've got every right to be furious about these decisions."
Asked if there were any positives he could take from the game, Levein replied: "Mike McCurry is not going to referee another one of our games this season.
"This is my livelihood, this is what I do for a living. Over the season is how you end up in third, fourth or fifth place but these decisions add up.
"It could mean an extra £125,000 for a league place added to my budget and an extra player for next season.
"It might mean when I've got an injury that I can turn to the bench and put a good player on instead of a kid.
"But people don't think about that. It's all about the pressure that's on Rangers, the importance of this match. And if you give a decision against Rangers you will get absolutely hammered.
"Can you imagine if this was the other way around? Mike McCurry would never referee another game.
"But we are only Dundee United. It doesn't really matter."

only ref i remeber getting boot was callaghan years ago he had a howler in old firm game whereceltic got the benefit ended up reffing amatuer football played a lot of games years ago had him as ref the guy was an absolute gent
Aberdeen and Dundee Utd have had theyre share of dodgy decisions as well, its not just the old firm.

He always sits at the table next to me at the Celtic Supporters Club on London Road
Levin and all United fans have every right to feel cheated today, simply because they were! But you've got to take the bad decisions as they come, some in your favour, some against you.
The Setanta team were gobsmacked at the ref today, he made errors but he's only human.
Who the fcuk would want to be a ref with all this hatred in the atmosphere?
