  1. Best use of smiley's in a thread award 2014, goes to....... Zappa!
  2. A man who used his last months on earth to sink the boot into a supposedly dead football club.
  3. Did he have an Elvis costume on at the time of the attack?
  4. "It is a bid for a majority share, and without that being made available to him, the life-saving will not come from him." Were you implying that somehow DK should be on hand to deliver life saving funding without receiving the keys to the shop in return? If I've picked you up wrong I'll withdraw the comment.
  5. That's a strange angle to draw from it. King has been waiting in the wings until such time as the clowns in charge need bailed out to the extent they do now. His (and the other high net worth individuals) entire strategy has been to get control and I can't see why anybody would think it might not be. What would be the point of plowing several million in just to prop up a rogue regime?
  6. Talks a good game Lenny but when the pressure's on he somehow manages to pile the pressure on to his players and they under perform. Bolton to get relegated is now 13/10 at the bookies....worth a punt.
  7. I was sure I had already sorted my payment but it seems not... Think Alzheimers is setting in. Will log in and send it in the morning BH.
  8. You've got to take your hat off to him, he's scammed a first class living for years and gotten away with it. So far....
  9. Exactly. I'd put my house on there being a large sum of money finding it's way to Mr C Green from Mr M Ashley for an obscure business transaction. All conjecture of course.
  10. I have a feeling that Mike Ashley fancies a bit of the Old Firm glamour. I wouldn't be surprised if he ups his stake and tries to recreate the Old Firm of old. The merchandising opportunity in itself is considerable and with BT Sport a UK wide (and then worldwide) audience is there to be exploited. Scottish Football is irrelevant but that fixture does grip people with no connection to either team. I could be wrong and it'll be an omni-shambles of epic proportions and Celtic will trounce is for years to come.
  11. The thing is they SHOULD be way, way, way ahead of us in all departments and they aren't. They've had a free go at the title for three years, they've had guaranteed Europe until Xmas every year basically and they've bought and sold well in the transfer market. If Rangers were to beat them there would be a mutiny on Kerrydale Street of previously unheard of proportions. Nuclear Timplosion.
  12. Far be it from me to defend Cosgrove's honour but he's basically correct. It's not about the physical time it takes to push a digit 3 times or push 2 in close succession, it's the digital dialling and connection time that makes it quicker to dial 101 than 999. The former requires only 2 pulses and the latter requires 27. He's still a dick of course.
  13. It was probably quite easy to hack the VB Twitter account... I'd guess hatedbutrated was the password.
  14. Funny, most No voters I spoke to cited Alex Salmond as the reason they were voting that way. I don't mean one example, I mean thousands, probably tens of thousands. As you say, there are a lot of gullible people out there.
  15. The idea that 45% of votes were made because of some kind of mass hysteria is laughable. Lots of people voted for lots of different reasons and to say otherwise is rather naive. By your logic the other 55% of votes were cast with absolute cast iron logic and by on the ball politicos....both positions are equally without basis.
  16. So as not to upset the supporters with "quite extreme views" you should keep your mouth shut? Are you both really saying what I think you're saying? Deary me.
  17. Scottish Nationalism itself has been infiltrated and possibly even hijacked by those who only want to see the end of Great Britain rather than the majority of people who like me simply want to see a better, fairer Scotland. The majority of Yes voters that I know, friends and family among them were in it for similar reasons. Inclusiveness, tolerance and a desire for self determination. Putting the sectarian divide aside for the moment, Scotland is a very tolerant country. We have a large Asian population, a growing Somali, Sudanese, West African and Eastern European population and by and large it's a safe place for them to live and work. Contrast with a UK Govt under assault from UKIP, the far right and extremists like Britain First etc. The SDL model themselves on their southern big brother and we got a snapshot of their intolerant form of Unionism last week.
  18. I assume from your posts that you either are an active Orangemen or at least have sympathy for their "cause". That being the case I'm more than happy to denigrate your character because quite simply it is a stain on the club and support. It may be an old stain and have been tolerated far more in bygone days of yore but the harsh reality is that it is irrelevant to the football club and is driving people like me away and as I mentioned it is likely to deter a whole new generation of supporters from our club. An organisation which holds a victory in a religious battle 324 years ago as it's central theme should be mocked not respected.
  19. Firstly, I said Loyalist symbolism which in my mind is distinct from Unionism. I'm certainly not advocating removal of Union flags etc because in itself there is nothing wrong with being a proud British club. I still believe Rangers to be the quintessential British club in the same way Jaguar is a quintessential British car maker and Harrod's to be a quintessentially British store. You get the picture. Secondly, support for the No vote is a political choice. It has absolutely nothing to do with Rangers and those who engaged in telling people like me where they could stick their view created division. Lastly, I've yet to be convinced of any link between Rangers Football Club itself and the political institutions that people keep telling me are part of it's history. The fans have imposed those links, whether that be Northern Irish supporters using Rangers as the anti-thesis to their enemies use of Celtic in the same way.
  20. Rangers are only linked with areas of society because people like yourself continue to be apologists for them. Tell me exactly what about Rangers history links it to King Billy please?
