    Would you take defeat in the next Old Firm game if it meant we went on another run of 11 league wins?

    Yes, because 33 points againt everyone else are more important than 3 points against Rangers.

    Another run of 11 straight wins and I think the league is ours; again :50:

    Would also rather have the bragging rights of winning 4 in a row over winning 1 OF game :icon_mrgreen:

    If we beat them I think we'll win the league. I hate losing to the *, especially after that humping we got in August

    what a hollow victory that would be under no circumstances would losing every game against the huns be acceptable

    Hollow victory how?

    If we win the league every season from now til the end of time and never beat rangers ever again you'd never hear a peep from me. I hate that shower beating us but if it's for the greater good then so be it.

    These are our and their fixtures before the next OF encounter at Ibrox...

    US.................................. THEM
    Inverness Home ............ Hearts Away

    Hibs Away ...................... Hamilton Home

    Hearts Home .....................Dundee United Away

    Falkirk Away ......................Hibs Home


    I don't wanna jinx it, but I can honestly see us going on to record 15 straight wins before the OF game. My only worry is the fixtures involving the Edinburgh clubs. Worst case scenario, we drop 2 points over the course of both fixtures.

    Rangers, going about the way they are, will find a challenge in Hearts Away and also in Utd away, which i consider to be their most difficult SPL fixture outwith any involving us. I predict them to loose at least 4 points in those games. Also, if aberdeen keep up the good work today, theres another 2 points lost for them.

    So bearing this in mind, we could be on 50-52 points by the time the OF game rolls around, and they could be on 41-43.. Let's hope my prediction are accurate. If they are, a loss at Ibrox will not significantly affect our position on the table.

    Yes.. people say that the old firm games make the difference in the race for the title.. but we know now that Rangers are prone to dropping points to teams like St.Mirren so another 11 game winning streak would suit me fine

    Winning the league is more important.
    But I still hate losing to them.

    We need to take points from Rangers to widen the gap, we cannot depend on "provincial" teams taking points off them

    Yes absolutely losing an old firm for me only stings for the day, I dont hear about it for ages after from mates or in work etc and I dont have to put up with the papers being riddled in *. One of the very few advantages of not being able to see celtic on a weekly basis.

    No hate losing to them would rather we beat them and if we are to beat them we would probably still go on an unbeating run.
