Very merry Xmas when it comes troops 

The team has come together and the penny has finally dropped that we are a good team .

The fragility and indecisiveness has gone , summer recruitment has been excellent , AA+++ 

just keep it going .

we need to get this game put to bed , do not give the hordes from the east the slightest encouragement at all .

The single most important goal he will possibly ever score,  Big Cedric I love you ?

If we can keep all our players after January , and if we play to the same standard in Europe that we have these last 2-3 seasons , we will be fine , our biggest problem will be over confidence , something I don’t see in this team or this management team this year .

Dun hibs deserved nothing from that game , when you need to use Craig Levens 6-4-0, tactics you get nothing and you deserve nothing .

Your entire game plan was to fire aimless balls into the box with 2mins left , pathetic .

Personally I think he is more of a team player,  last year and the year prior , we relied on this young guy to take on defences single handedly,  mot any more and its paying massive dividends.

I would like to knock Dynamo Kyiv out next.

For the long term Coefficient points this would also be the best option , we are ahead by about .4 so if we could deal with them and Shaktar  gets a rotten draw it’s happy days .

As an aside , if we get anymore points we actually go above Celtic , which is an amazing achievement on its own , they are currently on 34 points but have 7 dropping off from 5 years ago , we are on 26.5 with no points to drop off , makes the last 2 years all the more remarkable and shows how rotten that mob are in Europe .

Yes, you're right. It is immature of me to be so rude.

 

It's just that I found it so difficult to believe that you can't tell the difference between a question mark and other punctuation.

 

I'll adjust my expectations for the sake of this thread.

Now that’s actually witty .

apologies for my rudeness , we just need to agree to disagree , plus English never was my strongest subject ,lol

Not sure where I said I didn’t see the the potential issues with that? Can you show me 

 

I gave a polite response in conversation 
 

I said - I didn’t see the issue with him and admitted freely, in the post you quoted, I wasn’t aware why there is an apparent depth of feeling against him (as a person). 
 

Hence why I wasn’t questioning someone who wasn’t on the podcast 

Will send you a DM

Chris Graham is known to heavily influence C1872's decisions.

Dave King gives Chris Graham an apparently extremely overpaid job at Rangers.

The Chris Graham influenced C1872 turn down the chance to invest in the club at least twice and instead decide to raise £13m to buy Dave King's shares.

 

Are you really saying that you don't see the potential issue with that?

Laura was extremely clever in the way she answered Steveies question , because she knows damned well what the outcry would be if she made it public , there have been numerous member emailing into club1872 on this issue , not one has had a reply to their questions .

Wow!

 

That garbage was difficult to parse.

 

Really glad that you kept it, uh, short and to the point. Titter.

Titter , what age are you 14 , grow up.

I think Wolfsberger would be a good draw. Bottom half of the Austrian league and lost more than half their league games. 

Think I was getting them mixed up with the German team ? too many Heverlees ?

So what?

 

Who said anything about us getting Benfica?

 

Please try to keep up.

Are you just going out your way to be a dick now.

The fact that Ukraine have a seeded and unseeded team will make things very awkward to keep the 11th spot .

Anyone other than Salzburg or Wolfsberger plus we can’t get Benfica so .........

Why didn't you answer the question I asked you on page 25 then?

 

Why are you asking about progress for Rangers when it was clear that I was referring to the progress of the "legacy" member scheme?

 

Maybe you just didn't read these posts, or the thread you recommended, for, uh, some reason.

You didn’t ask a question on page 25 , you made a statement .

But to make this short and to the point , if the question is about progress for Rangers , I will continue with what not just myself but numerous posters have said regards this scheme , there is no progress for Rangers this is a private deal between Club1872 and DK .

DK further muddied the waters by saying Club1872 could put the money into the club if the club gave clear and concise agreements that they would convert that money into shares , after that DK would sell his shares to Club1872 , the fact that , that very scenario would take Club 1872 over the30% mark seemed to pass him by , given that the 3 bears were done for this very reason and working in a concert party  also worried me , facts , facts ,facts , DK is turning into our very own Donald Trump , play to the crowds and ignore those pesky facts .

Has big Itten broken into Rob McLeans house and done a massive shit on his kitchen table , what the hell is he rabbiting on about , some of these commentators are bonkers .

Need to sub zungu 

Ref is very petty , Baloguns booking was a nonsense .

I quite like the look of Zungu: reads the game well, good on the ball and has good strength and pace. 

 

Nothing fancy, but effective. 

He plays that position very well ,covers the ground and has good vision to block runs and potential passes , its one of those underestimated positions thats vital in the modern game .

Very accomplished first half , fantastic goal from big Cedric

A lot of people asking regarding Chris Graham, I’m not sure what the issue is with him

 

However I took the decision not to question someone who wasn’t on the podcast themselves, didn’t seem fair 

 

I however pushed Laura on who was involved and was anyone behind club1872 and in the background. 
 

The answer is their is a few volunteers with three board members. 1 paid member of staff 

 

Personally I think that tells us everything but not sure why it’s a major issue. I appreciate I am obviously completely naive so apologies for that 

Chris Graham is a majorly divisive person amongst the support , initially I was a massive supporter of his   however he was given a position without merit and he blew it , he was then given another position,  paid for by Rangers ,DK, and that was to oversee Club1872 , he is at or was at every board meeting even though not elected , Laura was very clever in her answer ,let's just leave it at that ?. 

Listen , I am not going to give them a penny more until there is a clear out , I wouldn't trust this current board as far as I could throw them. So my views will only cloud the issues.

Good luck on the future Stevie .

First off thanks to Stevie for everything he’s done in the past and I wish him all the very best for his future .

Hopefully the blogs continue .

With  regards to the podcast with DK and Laura Faulkes , I get really really frustrated when they answer in a way that’s not 100% true , I’m not accusing them of lying , but they use very political woolly language , in fact Dave King is turning into our very own Donald Trump , he plays to the gallery .

Another question or rather point that needs addressed is the position of DK,s favourite poodle , aka , Chris Graham , what position does he still have with regards Club1872 , or now that DP has booted him out , is he gone completely .

Not sure that's legal

To be honest neither did I 

"In this moment we are 90% sure that Rangers will be the next team for Juan" Juan Alegria's father Alonso.

Honka FC own 60% of the player rights while the player and his family have 40%.

Rangers would buy 80% - the 60% owned by the club and the player's family would retain 20%.

I think you are finding it difficult to keep up here.

 

Go back and re-read the comments. 

I’m more than keeping up , I’m not the one who can’t answer the questions .

There is no progress for Rangers in this , this is a private trade between Club1872 and DK , that’s it end off , Infact if you listened to today’s excellent 4lads pod , DK further muddied the waters by stating that if Rangers wanted the £13 million money and gave a commitment to club1872 that they , the board , would convert that money into shares at 20p , he would wait and sell to club 1872 , knowing full well that that would take club1872 over the takeover the threshold where they would need to make an offer for the club .
