In what can only be described as the most idiotic question ever asked by a national radio station pundit – and that is saying something – Talksport troll and Rangers fan Adrian Durham posted on twitter: “On the show today we ask the question, have RangersFC just saved Scottish Football?”
Durham, who has a penchant for slagging off Scottish football and all the clubs except for Rangers [who he glorifies in every article he has written about them], was then faced with a volley of tweets ridiculing him and rubbishing the loaded question posed.
It’s just a shame that there are some like Durham who believe that Rangers were the victims in this scandal and that Scottish football was to blame for their demise. But it just goes to show how little they know of the EBT scandal and the Scottish game itself. Not that Durham cares as we all know he ignores the facts to peddle his bile.
Scottish football fans decided to take the piss out of the buffoon with the hashtag #HaveRangersSaved being created.
Here are a few #HaveRangersSaved tweets [including our own]:

Sadly Durham blocked yours truly after I replied to his ludicrous question.
@talkSPORTDrive the fact you asked that question says a lot about you in fact it says a lot about your lack of knowledge of Scottish game

Safe to say he wasn’t happy with the responses he got and went all defensive in the wake of criticism from journalists, ex-pros and fans alike.
Let’s hear your best #HaveRangersSaved comments….
