They're a relegation fighting team in Germany? It's like randomly putting up Granada's top from Spain? I don't get it

It might make sense if we had some connection with them or they had awesome tops?

It looks crap.

What is the point in this thread?

You have had some real belters today ...

Coming from someone who puts their foot in their mouth so much that they permanently have to hop.

I don't see the point in us having anyone in their 30's on a big wage.

Is it just me letting my imagination run riot, but didn't the press leaks escalate rather than lessen after his arrival? I'm not suggesting that he was 'the mole' but I (naively) thought when he came the press would get what we wanted them to get, and not much more.

I can't see him being there longer than a couple of months more, and I think he will leave these shores (to join Darryl King?) as there is no safe haven for him after us. He will be hated.

you're right and while he isn't innocent I'd image, he isn't necessarily the whole cause. MM plus the Green camp are obviously all at it. It's pretty telling that in the leaked tapes IA accused MM of leaks and he didn't even bother deny it.

Christ, what a tragedy our great club has become. We're the new Harchester Utd.

I always like Traynor (before it became suddenly cool to like him) but he is currently oozing in incompetence in a club that breeds it.

I'm not a Charles Green basher but no argument there.

Neither was I really until recently. I never fully trusted him, was pretty ambivalent. All the stuff with whyte just shows he was another chancer.

We seem to attract chancers like flies to shit.

Absolutely appalling if Green made no attempt to speak to our key players face to face.

Not since Charles Green left

The compensation stuff was largely just more BS from Green

I reckon the players that left were the ones who had viable options elsewhere.

The likes of McCulloch would have had very limited interest and would have struggled to get half their wage elsewhere.

forget about it.

I can't see anything tangible he has done in months? He was brought in as Media Director yet we are at our lowest ebb on the media front.

All he did was produce a few strongly worded articles on the official website. They were hugely popular but to me they looked very amateurish. A club like us should not be publishing strongly worded blog type articles, it looks pathetic and I doubt any other big club would ever do it. Yes we need to be standing up for ourselves but there's ways and means.

His articles slightly reminded me of the type of hate filled dirge you see Romanov coming out with where you end up looking like a loon ball.

Just stating the facts; if you want to spin them that's up to you. Another fact is that it took Gretna three years to get out of Division 3.

 

 

Trying to show up a club for not coming first by a as big a margin as another club in another year just seems daft to me. In sport it's better not to take your eye off the ball.

 

If you watch the TT you'll have seen the proper competitor's reaction to suggestions of breaking records: "irrelevant to me" and "bigger fish to fry".

 

 

Gretna are one club I'd rather not emulate.

I'm not spinning anything. I stated a fact.

Scotland Manager should always have european experience and Strachan fits the mould.

 

A good result.

3 or 4 seasons worth?

He won 3 titles on the bounce with them

2 of those seasons had pretty much no opposition.

And they signed Wilson and being linked with others. Not sure how this works.

I don't get it at all. They're in for better players than we are.

So what you are saying is Gretna dropped considerably less points in SFL 2 than we dropped in SFL 3.

It's good to see there's a couple of intelligent fans like forlanssister and GS in our support because we sure are filled with absolute mugs.

Very good win.

 

Sadly the appointment was 1 year too late. Anyone could see Levein shouldnt have lead the team into this WC group, it was the best opportunity we've had to get to a tournament since France 98.

 

I like Strachan also and we could do a lot worse at Ibrox.

It is a 1 off victory. We beat France under McLeish and he's one of the worst managers around.

Before we go crazy with the Strachan love in lets remember how shite he made Mons Celtic side. They made the last 16 of the CL admittedly but most of his signings were horrific and he's a dire manager thats amounted to nothing

Wee Strachan is a shrewd man, he won't bring back the guys who jumped ship for various reasons.

 

The players tonight although lacking a bit of class showed real keenness to play for the cause reminded me of the way Walter got his players to play for him...the manager is so important.

 

Maybe he could be the next manager of Rangers?

 

I very much rate him, he'd be perfect for us

Are you a t arrier or a troll?

Why did you say 'cheerio' earlier? You haven't sneaked out of bed ya cheeky monkey have you? You'll get captured and grounded.

I said cheerio to you mate, you've had enough air time for tonight.

Including the law of the land Give your head a rest for the night GS.

He's one of the few voice of reasons on here, along with the likes of Frankie.

don't worry no matter what the record print some will refuse to believe it.

Oh we have seen this happen

Are you being deliberately fucking lazy??? Read my posts. For the last fucking time - I'm not defending his appointment. I'm disputing the phrase 'gangsters' being used about the two of them without a shred of evidence other than gossip. If you can't be arsed reading my posts before accusing me of being 'slow' [to understand] or obtuse as you ever so elequantly put it then take the fucking responses you deserve.

You claim to have "irrefutable proof of their dodgy past" which warrants the term 'gangster' for them. Where is it FFS and you can put this to bed and prove you are not just another drama queen who wont let facts (or lack of) get in the way of another 20 posts on here about our latest 'end of the world' drama?

Did I use the word 'gangster'? I think I used the term convicted criminal. Cheerio.
