League Cup Winners: Rangers
Scottish Cup Winners: Celtic
Challenge Cup Winners: Dundee United

First sacking (top two divisions only): Alan Archibald

Main hopes for your team: a lot of excitement surrounds the appointment of Gerrard but I think it would be foolish to get carried away and think this is the season Rangers win the league.

I didn’t think the gulf was too large last season between Rangers, Aberdeen and Hibs. The table could have ended either way with those three. Hopefully rangers can put an end to that and become a solid best of the rest.

I don’t think the gulf between Rangers and Celtic was too large, however one on one, it was huge. I hope that the gap in those fixtures can be reduced to be competitive at the very least.

The league cup is probably the most likely of silverware to chase, but hopefully there’s a run in both cups.

The group stages of the Europa league would be superb, but it’s a long way to get there.

Hopes for season

Would love to get to Europa League groups but we got such a tricky tie, I think it’s unlikely. Scottish Cup win would be ideal. I’d like a couple more signings who will compete for first team spot. Hoping that those who have come in to and we can preserve second place and perform better in bigger games.
