I mean, it's no secret who we're discussing here is it? The Rangers - founded in the heady beer-filled euphoria of 2012. They do their strut and dribble routine on the sacred grounds of Ibrox Stadium, embedded deep in the heart of our beloved Scotland. Ah, such youthful memories...
And what about the money, you ask? Well, their squad's combined footie prowess is supposedly valued at a reflective £101 million, or thereabouts. That's according to our dear friends at Transfermarkt. Imagine how many deep-fried Mars Bars that could buy!
And what about the chaps playing the field? A healthy group of 28 young lads, aged on average a tender 24. Youthful exuberance and ambition, wrapped up in football boots. A beautiful sight for sore eyes, really.
Now onto the juicy bit: the competitions. Our young Rangers have been stretching their legs in no less than five arenas this season. Boasting a second-place standing in the Premiership - sure, it's not first, but it's not last either, is it? Then, gallivanting around to make it to the semi-finals of the League Cup. Not to mention, the quarter-finals of the Scottish Cup. They've also had a run-around in the Champions League Qualifiers where they reached the play-offs, then rounded off their escapades with an appearance in the Europa League's league phase. Bit of an eternity tour, wouldn't you say?
So here's to their future endeavours and let's hope the fans' hopes aren't belied by false dawns... or shortfalls in the boardroom. Cheers!
