Can understand the one star for Cup Winners cup, but an equal star for a glorified friendly is a bit bizarre. Could be wrong but I can’t imagine there is many other clubs in Europe that commemorate a Super Cup win with a star on their jersey, in some ways it devalues the first one. Correct. By all means celebrate winning a proper European trophy. Even if it was the equivalent to the Conference. The ‘super cup’ though? Aye maybe the next season you could have a wee nod to it on your kit but not a 2nd star like it was an equal achievement about 40 years after the event!

Bazzas right boot Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Are folk seriously dismissing the European super cup? Aberdeen winning both is extraordinary, clearly the cup winners cup is more prestigious, but they still won the super cup. It's a phenomenon achievement that will never be repeated and they are well within thier rights to advertise/ celebrate it with stars on their tops. It winds up "5 star" rangers fans as well, a pleasing bonus. It's amusing what triggers folk. We should get a star for every hibs manager we get sacked. We'd be getting prepared to add one about now.

Sooks Posted February 7 Share Posted February 7 Not something I have ever given much of a **** about if I am honest . Would definitely like us to adopt the Italian model of the league and cup patches though Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
