Yep it is a good record, in fact is a very good record for a nation as small as ours but hardly glorious, but surely you must also agree that the amount of trophies (in all competitions) won is equally worthy of a mention. Remember people tend not to remember the losers in the finals, semi finals and quarter finals but only the winners, and can I also point out that unless you win a competition you don't have anything to crow about. How many competitions have celtic won overall ? Rangers have 107 European Cup Winners Cup Winners 1972; Runners-up 1961, 1967 Scottish League Champions (51) *1891, 1899, 1900, 1901, 1902, 1911, 1912, 1913, 1918, 1920, 1921, 1923, 1924, 1925, 1927, 1928, 1929, 1930, 1931, 1933, 1934, 1935, 1937, 1939, 1947, 1949, 1950, 1953, 1956, 1957, 1959, 1961, 1963, 1964, 1975, 1976, 1978, 1987, 1989, 1990, 1991, 1992, 1993, 1994, 1995, 1996, 1997, 1999, 2000, 2003, 2005 *In 1891 the championship was shared with Dumbarton Scottish Cup Winners (31) 1894, 1897, 1898, 1903, 1928, 1930, 1932, 1934, 1935, 1936, 1948, 1949, 1950, 1953, 1960, 1962, 1963, 1964, 1966, 1973, 1976, 1978, 1979, 1981, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1999, 2000, 2002, 2003 Scottish League Cup Winners (24) Season Starting: 1946, 1948, 1960, 1961, 1963, 1964, 1970, 1975, 1977, 1978, 1981, 1983, 1984, 1986, 1987, 1988, 1990, 1992, 1993, 1996, 1998, 2001, 2002, 2004 -- I'd insult you, but you're not bright enough to notice.
