Football fans across Scotland were all over it when the social media team at Ibrox released their Valentine Day message.
Up until 2012 the 14th day of February was known as Valentine’s Day but an announcement from a Court in Edinburgh changed the course of history as much love spread across the Scottish football community.
Despite the heroic efforts of Craig Whyte to keep the club in business the European failures of Ally McCoist were just too much for the former billionaire to cope with. Malmo and Maribor outsmarted the former Question of Sport skipper.
Her Majesty hadn’t received a button since September 2011, as she looked for her coin administrators were appointed to prevent the club from folding.
Even in administration the Scottish media were comforted, going into administration was presented as a position of strength, underlined by an attempt to sign Daniel Cousin while 276 creditors remained unpaid.
Various consortiums would surely come forward to take the club off Mister Whyte wouldn’t they?
Like the fans, wealthy blue nose businessmen kept their hands in their pockets. The cry of ‘Sumbdy wull have tae do sumthn’ was heard but unlike Motherwell, Dundee and Livingston no-one came forward to square up with Her Majesty. In June 2012 Rangers followed Third Lanark, Gretna and Airdrie into the crematorium of Scottish football, even the Daily Record had to finally admit the truth to their army of readers.

Roses are red ??
Bluebells are blue ?
Had they survived
55 may have been true.
Hearts nearly died
But their fans rallied round
While their cousins from Govan
Were being lowered in the ground.
So be angry with me
I don’t know why
I wasn’t the one
Who let my club die
