der Berliner 3,286 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 Disgraceful today. For people to blame the referee instead of looking in the mirror and accepting how poor we were is astonishing. The referee actually helped us out at Dalys goal as it was never a Rangers corner! A pathetic performance by a bunch of imposters who care nothing for our club. Not sure how much more I can take and its good to know I am not alone with thousands of empty seats in the ground again. Man, you are really at it. Read backwards from the last page and you simply had one go at the manager and the players after another. It almost makes you think you just waited for somesuch to happen so you can go into overdrive. Sure we produced hardly a display worth that name, but we've today drawn our second league game all season! Against a determined Stenny side that fought bravely as if it was their cup final. Against a referee that hardly deserves that job description either. We had 21 shots at goal (17 on target), shaving woodwork twice, and had a penalty disallowed. Who knows what would have come to pass had the foul on Templeton been given. Another 8-0 bashing like the last game against them? Football is a funny old game and people should, despite all our shortcomings today, start accepting that win, draw, or defeat is not 100% of our own making. It is not that hard! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BrahimHemdani 1 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 I think Davie Weir was 36 when we signed him and Madjid Bougherra turns 32 some time this year. That would be roughly a 4 year difference. Maybe he was just being sarcastic; maybe he meant 5 years and the extra 2 in front was a typo? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 It was a joke. I was insinuating weir was 57 when we signed him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BrahimHemdani 1 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 The next poster that says 'somesuch', should be banned, and then flogged, in that order. I'd go with the flogging first. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As with many footballers I've heard over the years, the ones using English as a second language often have better vocabulary and grammar than the locals. If it's good enough for Shakespeare (in "Othello" IV.ii.146: "Some such Squire he was That turn'd your wits the seamy-side without, And made you to suspect me with the Moore."), it's good enough for Gersnet. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Super Cooper 0 Posted February 23, 2014 Share Posted February 23, 2014 (edited) Weir at 57 would still be more reliable than those we have right now. Edited February 23, 2014 by Super Cooper 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Hey, since it was me who invented it, I get the foreigner's pardon ... and still have credit for 561 more new English word inventions! 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
