Odds on Hibs Going Straight Back Up

in what way are they better ?

Where do you start.

Crowds are up with every team apart from Celtic
Every city in Scotland has been free of the minority of these fuds in their cities.
The Silverware has been shared through four new teams
The corrupt SFA are clueless on how to justify their Armageddon statement.
Footballs better
Lots of young talent now being developed and not being media groomed by the Daily Record as the Huns next big signing
Better all round feeling about our game.
Scotland's coefficient higher than in the last 15 years
National team doing better.
Etc etc.

But only one winner possible of the league ?

No clubs able to get into the group stage of the Europa

League without a sponser and drop in telly money

Celtic are the highest co efficent in Europe at 62 - below even Fulham then Rangers at 92 - so in danger of losing European slots in further qualifying rounds

Got the country at 23 in Europe below teams like Cyprus and Israel and a points drop from last year - currently at 3.250

Sad day for Edinburgh, but financially I think it's better for Hearts and Hibs to remain in the same division. My mate, a Hibs fan actually thinks Hearts will recover quicker than them and tells me Rangers are in danger of going bust again.
 
And these are the crucial ranking that go towards qualification pots for your clubs in Europe

I didn't mention the club co-efficient ranking. That is only going to continue to fall sadly but while it improved it improved due to one team's financial doping which ultimately lead to their death R.I.P.

The National teams ranking is improving since Avril went and funnily enough since the death of Rangers.

What is this financial doping you speak of?
 
The spending of money that your lot could not afford to buy players.

Next you'll be telling me it was simply high electric bills that caused the death.:smirk:

The one where they found in favour of Rangers? All trophies and titles won fair and square.

Edit: Never ceases to amaze me how threads about Scottish Football always get dragged down to slagging off Rangers, usually by the same suspects it has to be said. And it's usually half truths and hearsay as well. :)

They hate us but can't stop talking about us. Lol

The national team rankings dont help out the seedings etc - they improved after a couple of wins against Croatia( good wins ) from a squad with most of the players based in England ( 7 players playing in Scotland ) in WC Qualifying ( ended up 15 points behind Belguim in 4th )

I am well aware of where we finished but I am not sure what relevance where the players ply their trade is in context to this thread.

Anyone would think you were trying to engineer an us versus them thing.

I've given you an answer.

You spent money that you didn't have,much of it on players that had you lived within your means you would not have signed and that lead to that happy day your club died.

Is that clear enough?

Well its relevant when the National teams recent rise is attributed towards Rangers leaving the Scottish Prem and the league being "better" without them ( someone also said it would be better without Celtic as well )

Hence why i mentioned that the majority of players in the improving Scottish National Team are based below the wall in the English leagues.

It has been like that for a long long time,it's not new.

Dodger we went under because one man (craig whyte) did not pay a tax bill we could easily have afforded , prefering to fill his pocket and the guys stepping in to purchase the club afterwards wanted the slate wiped clean as they couldn't take the gamble on the EBT case (which we won).

That's the simplified version. Clear enough?

Out of curiosity, do you attack Hearts, Killie, Dunfermline, Dundee, Motherwell etc etc as much for their clubs financial mismanagement?
 
So when someones says the national team is better because the league is better its not correct ?

The league is certainly no worse and any of the players that were with Rangers are playing elsewhere and are still involved in the National team,their talents have certainly not diminished due to them leaving Rangers.

For me the National Team is better because we have got rid of the feckless clown that was in charge,nothing to do with the league being better or worse for whatever reason.
