Absolute scandal btw.Talk of not paying taxes to the Crown during the Spend Now Pay Later Years.
How many of your squad saw active service 39-45 Bliar?
Active doesn't iclude ironing nurses pinafores or still playing football.
How many?
you get embarrassed a lot, is that why you don't go on the rangers boards very much?
and, just incase you missed it, here is your Orange away kit proof you've gone quiet about...

Quinny... here you go. I'll leave you to determine 'how many'.
"Rangers' outstanding success during World War Two has led to many misinformed and outrageous accusations that Bill Struth deliberately placed his players in reserved occupations in order that they might avoid active service - accusations which have no basis in fact whatsoever and which in any case are an insult to the vital contribution made towards the war effort by such work. People envious of the Ibrox club's success during this and all other eras have promoted such falsehoods. A study of the Rangers players on active service during World War Two is enough to dissolve such a myth:
BRITISH ARMY
Willie Thornton (Trooper - Scottish Horse Regiment)
Donald McLatchie (Gunner - Royal Artillery)
Thomas Souter (Captain - Royal Scots Fusiliers)
Sammy Cox (Gordon Highlanders)
David Gray (served in Middle East)
Archie Macauley (Army Physical Training Corps)
Willie Paton
David Marshall
David Kinnear
'Torry' Gillick
Dr. Adam Little
Eddie Rutherford
Jimmy Galloway
Alex McKillop
Tom McKillop
Joe Johnston
Willie Knox
R. Cowan
P. Grant
A. Beattie
GDF Mackay
ROYAL AIR FORCE
Chris McNee - Flight Lieutenant
Ian McPherson
Eddie Rutherford
Jimmy Simpson
Alex Stevenson
ROYAL NAVY
Jimmy Parlane
Billy Williamson
Bobby Brown - Petty Officer - Fleet Air Arm
DECORATIONS
Ian McPherson was awarded the 'Distinguished Flying Cross', Willie Thornton the 'Military Medal' for valour in the field in Sicily on 18 November 1943. McPherson incidentally flew on the first RAF bombing raid on Germany.
RESISTANCE
Former Rangers player Carl Hansen was arrested and imprisoned in his native Copenhagen in 1943 as a member of the Danish Resistance during the German Occupation."
I'm sorry, Quinn. you count the 3 you won?
WW1 was 1914 - 1918 and Celtic's own page is showing league title wins for...1914, 1915, 1916, 1917
Convenient the league wasn't suspended during WW1, but was for WW2...was this the "Establishment" at work then?
They also had the cheek to include 1919, the next year after the war had finished which couldn't have been a full season
Oh, and I see Ish has covered my next post
Pishy all the dumplins' saw active service............any decent players were kept..........packin' red cross boxes for an hour durin' the week then playing for the dark side on a saturday.
3IAR... a Southern LEAGUE was formed. Rangers won these. ergo... they had league wins.
Devil Dug - Go away
I know they wore an orange strip, I don't need to be given some link to it and certainly not when you're trying to use it as evidence that Rangers brought it out to appease a certain element
Ish, I know, but that's not enough for these Bhouyzzz
Bliar. Can you count? WW1 started August 1914.
Celtic won the 13 -14 title 3 months before that.
Shatoe.
A Golden Odlie googled from Follow Follow. From the same fella who gave us the 47 Catholics who had played for Rangers before Mo.Discredited years ago but repeated by the challenged.
And you think they just hung up their taps on the hangers and went straight into battle...or would they have went away for a period of time to train for their war roles?
How can you possibly challenge the truth regarding Catholics who had signed prior to John Spencer on an S-Form. This should be a good wan
Well you girls should get Mr Whyte onto this pronto.
Rangers have been diddled.
What a shower of s.
I know, but that's not enough for these Bhouyzzz
==========================================
Why aren't these titles counted by Rangers in the 54?
Bliar. This is gonna be the second night on the trot you've sent me away happy.
Tell us the RC's who played for Rangers before the Spencer/Johnstone time.
Will I give you the Google address?
It's in there - just below 9IAR.
"Why aren't these titles counted by Rangers in the 54?"
We don't need tae!
Come on, Quinn, put up regarding the Catholics or dinnae bother
No, Quinn, that's not what I would call "putting up".
Let's be hearing it. In your own time
We don't need tae!
================
For this 'first 9IAR', you do.
47 Catholics.................that'll be about one every two years
Rangers had a Catholic playing for them before Celtic were even formed ya auld fool
There you go Quinny... Catholic players before Mo Johnston ..... John Spencer, Pat Lafferty (signed before Celtic even existed), Archie Kyle, "Doc" Kivlichan, Joe Donnachie, Johnny Jackson, Hugh O’Neill, Laurie Blyth, Constantine McGhie, James Tutty, Colin Mainds, Tom Murray, Tom Dunbar, Don Kichenbrand, Neilly McCallum.
Now... ye can deny or spin it aw ye like.
As Rangers were merrily signing Catholics (some before Celtic were formed), Celtic were taking a VOTE... TWO YEARS after they were formed... to decide if they should sign Protestants.
Bliar. Answer Ted's Q.
He's put it before but you've still not answered.
You didn't answer mine either.
Do you no get riddies?
You'd think after making a Van Vossen of yersel over 9IAR you'd lie low.
No oor Bliar. Back for merr.
Well, if they ain't good enough, they don't get to play. It's simple really and doesn't seemed to have harmed us...seeing as we're miles ahead in the "Scottish Titles Wan" table
Remember the last time...
