Oct. 23rd '63 He made an appearance as a substitute for Josef Masopust (1962 European Footballer of the Year) for the Rest of the World at Wembley against England.

Aug 7th 1963. Stoke City made a £70.000 bid to Rangers for him, knock-back

...10 days later 'Gers offered Raith £12,000 for him, knock-back.

Also done!...As 'Thinker' says, only takes 5 minutes to complete the form. Thanks for the link Steve. I've emailed the complaints link to friends and family.

...thanks bigy

...and will it be televised? Who's pulling the teams out of the bag? Do you think it will be 'fixed'?

Their obsession with all things Rangers borders on 'stalking'

Can handle opposition fans taking the piss, but why should we have to put up with the national sports channel doing likewise? An embarrassing attempt to annoy 'Gers fans, and have the rest of the country have a laugh at our expense, they must be very pleased with themselves with their pathetic 'work of art'

I'm old enough to remember football played with jersey numbers 1-11, never had a problem with it. Many players especially up front swapped the number on their jersey throughout the season i.e. Super was no.9 but he wore 7,8,10 & 11 as well during his playing career. When Rangers ran out on to the park, all the players were easily identifiable without having to look at the number on their shirt, we'll all get used to it as the season progresses.

I lost that stream with about 5 minutes to go and had to revert to listening to the c*nt, I could have just turned the sound down but the Rangers fans were top drawer and I was enjoying the atmosphere, Motherwell got a free-kick with a minute of injury time to go, when Alexander comfortably gathered the effort, the bam screamed 'game over'...the submission in his tone was so obvious - fuck him, I hate the c*nt

Everything you say about that idiot is spot on, I've been on here many times slating the c**t, I can't say much about his pish last night as I watched the game on a stream last night with NO commentary - just the sound of the crowd - with my headphones on, highly recommended when Rangers are live on BBC. He is a biased bastard who apparently supports Aberdeen, but hates Rangers and it shows. Other than that his skills as a match commentator are cringe worthy, he must be cheap, cheap enough for the miserly BBC Scotland I suppose. The c*nt is an absolute joke and should be shipped to the dole queue.

Filthy shower of b@stards running our game.

I saw a picture of a banner displayed this week all over the daily rags depicting man 'degenerating' into ape with a Rangers scarf on, all very funny but also on the banner displayed by sick dangerous fanatics at Celtic Park, home of Celtic FC was an IRA gunman shooting a cartoon figure, the figure was a Rangers supporter (Protestant). All those in power at the piggery declined to speak about it. I love Scotland and I'm proud of my roots, but the creepy shit murderous bile from over the Irish Sea are getting closer and closer and nothing is being done about it. Another rant over.

Are we to believe the people with top jobs at the SFA are predominately 'bitter' Catholics taking into consideration Scotland as a whole is predominately Protestant? Are we to believe there is an agenda by 'bitter' Catholics against Protestants (Rangers FC) in this little country of ours? Is this what is going on? Are we to believe that the law of the land has allowed Catholics to hate Protestants and their hate has took it to this unprecedented level? I know it's only football, but why are people in possession of top football jobs hell bent on destroying Protestant Rangers? It's war unless some c*nt gets a grip. Rant over

There's a saying 'you're either one or the other' so it's 'Proddies' then? But I know what you mean mate.

....proddies?

I only read page 4 thanks to dB..wish I could see all of it.....no worries.

Can someone put this on so I can read it?

Thanks for bursting my bubble Zap.....:sad:

Jeez...I started this thread and it's heading for 1000 reply's - very impressive - me must be doing something right. More than you can say about Ally.

I emailed the link to this story about Elliot to my brother, titled 'You'll Hate This Guy'.............(he does not follow football) Please understand MY memory is shot to pieces and his memory is sharp. I am posting his reply to me. Please take the time to read it. Hmm. I totally see your point. I was struck by the emphasis the ‘banana’ incident took in this piece and I was slightly taken aback when I read the first instance of it – and I’ll take it directly from the article; “"I remember I was having a terrible time in the match, and somebody threw a banana which hit my leg. I actually picked up the banana, peeled back the skin and ate it, then threw it back at the offender.”… When I read that my jaw hit the floor, because I can categorically assure you that the first time I’d heard that ‘banana’ story – yes, I had previously heard this same story – was from yourself. Surprised? You know I can delve into the distant past at a given moment and I clearly recall you telling me, years ago, of a ‘Gers game you’d been to when this very incident occurred. But the big difference was that it didn’t involve Paul Elliot, but Davie Cooper. I distinctly remember you coming back from the game – I could be wrong but something tells me it was against Motherwell at Fir Park – and there were indeed racist chants, directed at a Rangers player of the day. The chants from the opposing fans could have been directed at Mark Walters or whoever Black player was in the Rangers pool during the time Davie Cooper was playing – certainly the only Black player on the pitch between the two teams. Anyway, I recall your light-hearted telling of the story and apparently during the course of the match, a banana was thrown onto the pitch whereby Davie Cooper stooped to pick it up, peeled it back and took a bite before throwing it onto the trackside and continuing with his game. I vividly remember you telling me that and it is a fact. I distinctly remember you telling the story from the horse’s mouth, so to speak, and it stuck with me because it was obviously quite a witty thing for Cooper to do and it was related by you in a similarly witty fashion. I also remember thinking at the time that although it was a light-hearted approach, Cooper’s actions appeared to take the heat out of a potentially awkward situation. As far as I’m concerned, Davie Cooper is the true and genuine source of this story and it most-probably made its way through the football fraternity, particularly among the (few) Black players of the day, as amusing dressing-room banter. Paul Elliot - in the full knowledge that Davie Cooper can’t refute his pish – has hi-jacked it for his own ends. What a fucking charlatan he is.[/i] Are there any Bears out there who recollect this game? As I said - I've forgotten all about it.

Craig did you look at the link on post #972?
