10 Big Moments All Glasgow Rangers Fans Are Waiting For
There's not a Gers fan alive who can wait to beat Celtic again...
Since 2012, Glasgow Rangers have been outside of the top league in Scottish football, and it's safe to say that the game has missed them. Seemingly every week since liquidation of the old business holding at the Ibrox club, there's a story about the financial problems going on, not only at Rangers, but also in Scottish football as a whole.
This is symptomatic of a 'top flight' existing without the biggest, most successful and best-supported club in the entire country. Imagine the English Premier League without Manchester United? Or how about a scenario whereby there's no Bayern Munich in the German Bundesliga? That's the situation facing the game in Scotland, and whilst there are fans of other clubs basking in the afterglow of the woes at Rangers, there are many more who would like to see the Gers go head-to-head with Celtic at the top once more.
Fans of Rangers have done an awful lot of suffering over the past number of years, and haven't really had the chance to knuckle down and simply enjoy supporting their team, but there are hopes that this will change with the fresh feel surrounding the upcoming Championship season.
There are many things Rangers supporters can't wait to experience again, and this list takes into account those moments the fans at Ibrox Stadium simply cannot wait to savour once more.
10. Hearing The Last Of Tax Rumours And Witch-Hunting
In July, 2014, the HMRC lost the so-called 'Big Tax Case' against Rangers, as the case was thrown out of courts. It had been claimed that the club hadn't been paying tax for a number of years, and there were also problems stemming from alleged use of Employee Benefit Trusts, otherwise known as EBT. In effect, Glasgow Rangers were cleared of any wrong-doing, so why is this being talked about?
Rangers fans simply can't wait to hear the end of this sort of thing, because surely if a court of law has cleared the club, then it's all just a case of Celtic fans - and those of other clubs - simply being unable to move on? There's been a witch hunt in Scottish football over the past few years, glorifying in the fact that Rangers were placed down in the lower tiers of the game without first being found guilty.
In short, the sooner this all blows over, the better, because even though the finances at Ibrox still largely need to be sorted out properly, things seem to be back on an even keel, and those in charge seem determined to take Rangers out of the embarrassing mess - at least financially - that they've been over the past few seasons.
