  1. Entry to the champions league would be far easier and less money with Rangers as with Newcastle. I think it is a logical step for him to be honest but I then don't see why he sold his shares.
  2. I never realised that and I wonder if Leckie knows that.He still shouldn't be using a newspaper to insult us anyway.
  3. Does anyone know why the tims call Ibrox castle Greyskull. Thereis a discussion on FF that it is to do with the 66 killed in the disaster. I have never heard that thought it was just a joke name the tims got wrong.
  4. I disagree totally that a DOF should have the say on players coming in. He should be identifying them and putting them before the manager and then the manager has the final say on whether the player is contracted or not. What is the point in bringing a new manager in if you are going to tie his hands playing the same way with the same players. If the manager wants certain players then it is up to the DOF to do the work to find out if they are available and all the other contract work. The manager is responsible for the team so also responsible who plays in it. It is up to the DOF to make sure he has a manager that works in the vision of the club and if they have a good relationship then many decisions will be done together.
  5. Someone mentioned Martin Jol which is a reasonable shout.
  6. Is McCrorie definitely out?
  7. Now there would be a journey.
  8. The best result for us was if McGinn and Stokes got sent off or injured.
  9. I just don't think he is a very good manager and he cost us a WC place with his crap teams at the beginning of qualifiers.
  10. Living in Holland I see keepers punch the ball all the time when a lot of times they could catch it. That annoys me and I sometimes shout "FFS catch the F'n thing"With that free kick at the end I think Foderingham should have punched it as it was so busy in that area
  11. Surely Jack has been playing more advanced since McCrorie came in. I would still play McCrorie with Barjonas making the play. That is the role I see for barjonas.
  12. Don't worry mate I have no problem my point is just that if you cut out a whole section of the football community then you will miss out on a lot of good people. Most Celtic supporters are just the same as us, supporting their team. Yes I want to see them losing every game and I do hate the IRA green brigade trash but without the rivalry of the normal supporters football in Scotland would not be the same. Just my opinion.
  13. Sorry I should have said late father he is about 18 years dead.
  14. It is not silly it happened to my father who was just as staunch if not worse than you until ending up that way in hospital. After he came out he said he couldn't care what religion or creed the surgeon was as long as he could stop the pain. After that he looked at people as people and not their religion.
  15. I think Barjonas could play the jack role from what I seen today.
  16. I just see you lying in hospital with life threatening burst ulcer which causes excruciating pain and asking the nurse "Is the surgeon a protestant or or Catholic. Catholic oh okay then I will just suffer the pain and die. I am not letting a yahoo operate on me." I don't wish it on you bye the way.
  17. I would rather Celtic lost the three points. 1) That shit about being unbeaten will be finished 2) Hibs will lose to other teams. Celtic may not
  18. He got us up for Hearts, Aberdeen twice and did well today after we fell behind. He changed the shape of the team at half-time and then later again. What happened to the most important thing is winning thing. I am not saying he is the man for the job and I am totally undecided on him. Lets try and be objective as there will be plenty time to be critical of him if we lose.
  19. I didn't think Pena was too bad in what he did. It was just not tactically his sort of game after we went 1-0 down. We needed people to chase and tackle and Pena does not have that in his locker.
  20. Is Murty on loan or something? you really don't seem to like him. You can't blame Murty that John lost possession and Wilson tackled like a pussy. Murty made a good early tactical change that helped turn the game around. You kept shouting we should give PC a chance but you don't seem to be practising what you preached with Murty.
  21. Agree and what he is really saying is that Rangers made an arse of it.
  22. I think if you look down the list from top to bottom you will find in general that the teams with higher wage bills win leagues
  23. Well I grant that the Scottish guys are probably "well conditioned" by the amount of negativity that comes their way on a daily basis for about 6 years or so, but I am still more disappointed in the amount of acceptance of hearsay and conjecture being welcomed instead of either reason or indeed information given by the club. While I know some will aim their barrels at me saying "you cannot and shall not trust everything that comes from the club as truth", I would reply in kind that there is no need to do the contrary either. For that is what appears to be the case more often than not. Just take the stuff above. People said all was done and dusted weeks ago, despite we have not been allowed to talk to McInnes. Whispers in the background and all. Now, had we talked to McInnes, do we all think that there would not have been any of the same whispers telling the media about this and Aberdeen - you know, these hate-filled idiots from the East who really like us, from top to bottom - would not have come out all guns blazing and sued us for tapping McInnes up? Or are we to expect that this side of the hush-hush stuff would be immune to leaks? In any case, given the fact that we have very little information either way, perhaps we should let reason prevail? What we know is that we officially did not speak to McInnes. What we see is a certain amount of speculation that does essentially just one thing: discredit the Board. I would suggest that we stay vigilant as ever, but untowards everyone. I thought everybody knew how this worked. You see Football players and managers have people they call agents. Agents do all the negotiations before hand to see if they can reach a deal and if the person is interested. The very last thing that happens is that the player or manager talks to the club himself. What would be the point of Rangers asking Aberdeen if McInnes was interested. When a club asks for permission to talk to a manager then everything is normally in place and the meeting is mostly a formality. Signing the contract and photo-shoot.
  24. I am not in the know. just putting up what is being rumoured around the boards. Probably crap.
