  1. Can someone give me a link to the cva please. I don't have time to trawl this thread for it and the software won't search for cva. Ta
  2. Denial and deflection in your post. Par for the course really. Almost every thread in RM has some mentalist typing "Big Jock knew" I know that RM seems to be the baseline for RFC feckwittery but they do exist. I don't need your approval about what I type but I would like informed responses. I don't know if Big Jock knew and neither do you. Either way your last statement is a classic deflecftion and you can read what I think of those in the post you quoted.
  3. Fair dos! Obviously the story has major parallels with the Torbett case but TBH I don't know that much about the Torbett case. The Penn state thing broke in November last year and it is a massive one here in the US because "wee" Joe Paterno was such a hero. What still surprises me and I am going a way OT here is why such incidents are such a surprise here in the colonies. Perhaps having an ex-social worker wife I am much more aware of these kind of incidents which are much more common than anyone likes to think. 2 weeks before we moved from Scotland an international level gymnastics coach was arrested for abusing his charges. This was at international level too. I would guess that there are more abusers in the Scottish football game and if my kids were still kids I would be very stringent in anyone who had "loco parentis". However anyone who uses this kind of thing to justify or deflect critisicism from their own team is a slimy stupid arse and deserving of contempt. I hope that clears up any "whataboutery"!
  4. I would venture that prolonged child abuse being covered up by the club is a bit worse than financial doping. Severe penalties nevertheless and more than a few people are going to get their jotters! I would also imagine that Penn State will lose a fair few students as well. College football in the US is ridiculously popular.
  5. Oooooohhhhh. You b*****d! I haven't had a pie for 2 years. Oh how I miss them and bridies..and sausage rolls...and custard slices.....
  6. Isn't this just an opportunity to pimp money from the fans with a doomsday scenario? It is all about spin isn't it? A positive spin would have them talking about getting more prize money better chance of European place and a more family friendly atmosphere. They have chosen to go the other way. Seems TheLip is right.
  7. You know I feel it is now time to remind ourselves of the glorious history of the now defunct Rangers Football Club
  8. My tuppenceworth... Sod the 1690 reference. It is all about an ancient war that has no reference to football. Just keep going, and going..
  9. Green referred to Ranger as "us" and "we" in that interview. He is deluded!
  10. As a resident of the USA for 18 months now and can categorically say that the Mid Western and Rocky Mountain barely give a damn about the US national team never mind foreign club sides.
  11. Yes. It is called isostatic rebound combined with rising sea level. The weight of the ice from the last ice age compressed the northern part of the UK down into the mantle and as the ice is no longer there it is redjusting its "floating" level.
  12. Maybe I am being whooshed but as I am a geologist this just pressed a whole bunch of buttons. Nothing in the above post is correct!
  13. Hiya diddies So tell me have all those Rankgers and Smelltic shirts I used to see wandering around Dingwall and the Muir metamorphosed into Staggie shirts?
  14. For any chairman wondering about the benefits of the Rangers away support I sugest they read this My link
  15. Now I am not a church going fellow but the wife is and when I asked her about the Protestant Church's attitude towards gambling she told me it was a no no. The Church of Scotland won't accept lottery money for example so....... What the hell are good proddies doing going to William Hills anyway? Bunch of frickin hypocrites!
  16. Isn't he more like Kaiser Sauzee? I can just picture him limping away with a suitcase full of money.
  17. Muggy ya bam! You are responsible for the semi-masticated cornflakes on my keyboard! Hae a greenie.
  18. vambo57 said "I personally think Rangers are fucked and their only feasible route is the member Clubs of the SPL letting them in via their back door. If that happens then the games a bogie and I probably would call it a day, unless my Club voted against, then I would have to weigh up my options." I think that sums up my thoughts as well. If a club can cheat and steal their way into such a mess only to be let back in because of money then we SPL has no integrity whatsoever and does not deserve support from anyone.
