    A fair few home games but the vast majority has been away games because I enjoy them more. And don't have the money to attend them every game or I probably would. What about you?

    It's not even that the football isn't good, it's that they are not trying. If the football was rubbish yet they were puffing and panting making an effort, I would not mind so much.

    I renewed my season book this year, and I've been to almost them all, missed a couple. I've not been to as many away games as I used to go to. I know what you mean about them sometimes not putting in a 100%, or so it would appear, and it infuriates me as well, but I will always go and support them. But I do think some people have used this as an excuse as to not go this year. And I honestly believe, that if the Huns were still in the SPL and pushing us all the way this year, then attendances would be up, even if we were playing the same brand of football. Maybe not, but that's my opinion on it. And by having that opinion, that is why i'm annoyed at some fans for not going. Certainly not because I miss them, that's for sure.

    Genuinely have missed them not even 1%. I still think it's f*cking hilarious, and I will still never tire of seeing "Celtic" next to the list of "Champions" year on year. Beat what's in front of you - what other teams choose to do, or not do (like run themselves prudently,) is beyond my care levels.

    No pictures on a scorecard. I've loved this season, and am looking forward hugely to the next one.

    They'll be back anyway and then all of you who 'miss' them can lovingly celebrate them being back in the SPL and welcome them with open arms :97:

    Nope, don't miss them one bit. The derby games were a drag anyway with so many.

    I think there is a significant percentage of people on here who voted no when they infact do miss rangers in the league. I for one believe that they deserve to be where they are. I believe their deserve it for breaking rules. I take joy in their fans suffering watching horrendous football week in week out. However I do miss them in this league as they brought an edge to it and I always looked forward to playing them. They must pay for their sins though.

    I voted no as dont miss them one little bit but as some have already mentioned do miss a bit of competition, league has been a bit strange this season and the crowds or lack of them despite the mass interest in the CL games tells you that many think the same!

    I don't miss them, I just miss the competition. But I voted yes as I feel we have missed them, they bring out the best in us.

    The thing is if you would do this poll at the day the huns got bust there would be 99% of the people who wont miss them. Now its about 75%, next season it will be 50%.. and so on.

    I dont miss them at all, i only miss the derby games and some competition, but as someone said to me the other day - i dont live in Scotland and i dont have them as neighbours..

    I genuinely don't care about anything related to them, they are completely irrelevant to me. If they get back to the SPL in two years, they will be as much competition as Motherwell are just now.

    Don't know if it has been said already, but can imagine it has.

    This thread is so bad. Its a genuine question but imagine the Sevco fans coming on this to peak (and they do), without reading the replies, they will see the vote and the very existence of this thread and go back to Hunmedia and declare we miss them or the game is nothing without them:31:

    We should just look forward to achieving 10IAR - we can do it! That will rile Deadco up beyond belief. There is only one team in Scotland who set records......CELTIC!!! :shamrock:

    100% yes

    I refuse to bury my head in the sand and say that it's better without them

    There is literally zero competition in the SPL and that's reflected on the effort shown by the players at times, and the lower attendances this season

    I miss old firm derbies, especially the evening games with the rarity of the football world stopping to watch a game of Scottish football, having the footballing world's attention focused on my team .. that's a great feeling.

    It's just a pity we don't beat teams like Barcelona in the Champions League so we would get the footballing world's attention focused on us.

    They only offered competition because they were cheating though. If they played by the rules they wouldnt have competed with us.

    From 2000-death they spent about £12million a season more than they could afford which is about £230k a week in wages which was probably about half their wagebill. Imagine them with only half the squad they had from 2000-death, they wouldnt have been near us.

    So it was false competition and if they were still alive and living within their means they wouldnt be competing now anyway.

    Anyone who missed the games, we played the * all the time, in the last 2 years we played them about 10 times. Its not like its been ages. I was 21 when they snuffed it and I had been to about 40 games against them, thats plenty, far more than enough.

    A lot of huns kid themselves that they only went into Admin and got Liquidated because Sir Craig never paid the PAYE but he never paid the PAYE because he couldnt because they were running at a massive loss and they couldnt get a bank to fund them because they already owed a bank £millions so had to go into Admin regardless of him paying PAYE or not, him not paying PAYE just meant they could last longer without going into Admin. If Sir Craig paid the PAYE they wouldnt have even got half way through the season - they would have probably entered Administration about late October/early November, only lasted until Ferbuary as they never paid it and sold Jelavic in the January to scrape through.
