What a load of tosh. P&B has been 'big' on many clubs over the years - my own club had its very own point-and-laugh section in the past - Livingston, Gretna, Motherwell et al have been discussed and mocked at length. The Old Firm haven't been very well represented on here over the years so discussions about them have been generally few and far between - I have no idea if the subjects you've rattled off were mentioned on here but I'm sure if they were it wasn't to the degree you seem to be trying to allude to.

It was £1.8m.

Rangers were one of the strongest clubs in World football and yet they still managed to go tits-up

Well yeah - he alluded to some point I'd missed but hasn't been back to explain what it was. Guess I'll never know.

Right ok, so it looks like I've missed the point - what point was it ?

Gawd, here we go again, round and round in ever decreasing circles. My post pointed out that you stated King was 'ripping the pish' by not passing on the information to you stating less than 15 minutes later that he would.

Quite, not that your reply covers what I posted. You've gone from slabbering about King 'ripping the pish' to admitting he's not in just under 15 minutes MRF-LCC-RFC has more credibility than you and he's a fucking parody account

Ripping the pish by actually letting him know

Is this a Club or Company AGM ?

Yer fucking joking and it disnae fucking work

I watch MotD every weekend without knowing any of the scores beforehand - that's despite having been to a game myself and having been posting on here.

Well that'll teach me to read a 'Rangers' thread before watching the Europa Cup highlights on the telly. It's no just Celtic fans laughing at 'Rangers' you thick c'nts.

On the subject of the academy, I remember a good few years ago having a chat with one of the youth coaches who mentioned that FFC were rather excited about the prospect of a player coming all the way through the ranks from the very very bottom (preschool age!?) to the First Team. He said there was one player fairly close to achieving it. Given that the conversation was a few years ago does anyone know if this has now been achieved?

I'm to tired to give this serious thought at the moment and I don't really have enough info on what's being proposed. I'd like to see the stadium 'finished' but I'd also like to see us stay solvent - I also acknowledge that the stadium is already to big. Just think if they ran an exact copy of the Brockville enclosure down that side of the pitch though - complete with the gable end of a house - I guess even the away fans would like that!? We could move Falkirk telly into the middle of it and get Jock Brown to open it by means of a 'Falkirk on the rampage' style commentary. Is the old enclosure roof still at Ochilview?

If only they'd sold a few keyrings on the Monday after the Cup Final

Course not.

In fairness these guys have been used to the press blowing smoke up their arses all their lives so when someone writes something non-complimentary it kinda f'cks with their minds.If complaining to the PSO doesn't work the next level is a statement from Dave King.

There's only about one post on there from someone attempting to disect and make sense of the story - the rest are just slabbering abusive pish and/or missing the point altogether.

The EBT influence on the team isn't restricted to the players who had them, the player budget was directly effected meaning more money would have been available to bring in players outwith the scheme.

Nicely done - have a Chaz.

So getting beat is a punishment now - how many 'punishments' did Rangers dish out during the time they weren't paying proper taxes ?

"Wake up" annoys the f'ck out if me !! It's generally used by folk who are a befuddled mess!
