Is this more Murray spin? 
While it is obviously true Rangers' (2.31 points per game) domestic
form so far this season has been better than Celtic (2.15 points per
game), the difference in Celtic and Rangers' relative ranking is
primarily based on difference in the European assessment in this silly
ranking....
...I, and the proverbial blind man, would say that Celtic (6.9 points
in the system) have had the better season in Europe so far....however
this ranking system suggests it's Rangers (8.5 points in the ranking
system)....from what I can see, your victories (home and away) in the
Champions League qualifiers over Zeta (who the f*&k are they again?)
bumps up your European record and hence places you above Celtic in
this ranking.... |

why is it when you post with a bit of banter, debatable points and a
bit of humor, you come across as OK?
Yet when you post bigotry you come across as a moron? |

Yes...not the best known club in Europe. We did manage to avoid a 5-0
horsing that would have raised their profile above the obscure though. |

Yes that is interesting, but also irrelevant given the discussion about
rankings...the important point is that your two wins against Zeta do not
make your year so far in Europe better than Celtic's...this silly ranking
suggests otherwise.... |

No, but we *are* the best team in Scotland. The league table doesn't lie. |

Surely a league table only doesn't lie once it's finished. See you on the
23rd. |

True the table doesn't lie, but remember that trophies aren't given out in
the second week of January Marco...although I guess it's been a little while
since you won anything...when was it again....can someone please remind me? |
