So, Rangers FC kind of forgot to pay a 9 million pound tax bill and have been sent into administration... 10 points deducted from the league table (I'd like to think they'd have lost anyway)... possible non-signing of Daniel Cousin (who was a bomb-scare for Rangers the first time round, so whoever's idea it was to get him back must have been suffering a severe brain fart)... and I hate Rangers, so why do I feel awful about this?
I think it's because money, as always, has come before the love of the game. Football is no longer -- and hasn't been for some time -- about football, but about profit. (It also goes without saying that footballers as a rule are too bloody stupid to deserve to earn so much money, but they're the ones who make the game worth watching and it's tv that rules the world).
Aargh. Anyway, I'm sad to see Rangers in such dire straits. I'd rather see them beaten fairly by a superior team
