So we now know the line-up for the Championship next season. spfl.co.uk/news/article/line-up-for-201415/Alloa Athletic Cowdenbeath Dumbarton Falkirk Heart of Midlothian Hibernian Livingston Queen of the South Raith Rovers The Rangers That's going to be one tough, tough league. Obviously a lot can happen over the Summer squad wise but you've probably got to assume that Hearts, Hibs and The Rangers will be the favourites for the top 3 positions. Then you're probably looking at Falkirk and QOTS for 4th and 5th which leaves us in a group of 5 with Alloa, Cowdenbeath, Dumbarton and Raith. At the minute, I seriously reckon our aim will be to avoid relegation. We're going to have to be taking points against those other 4 teams in the group of 5 I mentioned. Like I say, we'll not know what nick Hibs and Hearts will be in come the start of the season and we can go into those games with nothing to lose as such but I still reckon they'll be in a better position than us. I'd much rather we used the money that we'll bring in from attendances to make sure we're on a sound platform financially than spending it on players to try and compete with teams with more money than us.

www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/27574189Not quite sure why the Beeb have The Rangers down as having won 54 top-flight titles, 33 Scottish Cups & 27 League Cups though? As far as I was aware, they've two league titles to their names and that's about it...

I reckon we should stick to the facts on this wee site reflect that The Rangers are a relatively new club with 2 league titles to their name. No pandering to the big boys on here, thank-you very much.

No pandering to the big boys on here, thank-you very much. That sounds like a plan to me! As much as I'm looking forward to some bigger attendances at Almondvale, I'm also pretty excited for some good away trips to Easter Road and Tynecastle! Train through early for some beers before picking up three points and grabbing some more beers before jumping on the last train home!

I would concur that the division can be viewed as two separate divisions, that that will compete for promotion and that that will fight to avoid relegation. I would plan to gain a two point average against those teams we will fight with to avoid relegation and hope for bonus points from the others. The best time to get those points is at the start of the season, so running shoes on from the start. Our players need to be self motivated for this next season and must realise that treading water will only result in the club sinking, time to act professional and do the CPD they need to be successful.
