  1. I'm starting to become more desperate by the day.

    In Peter Pan, they say every time you say you don't believe in fairies, a fairy dies.

    I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers, I don't believe in Rangers,

  2. Here's a wee thought which might just give you a crumb of comfort, depending upon a couple of things happening. :

    1. The transfer embargo stays

    2. The overpaid "star" players leave, giving The Pie Man a team of weans to use next season

    3. RFC (2012) get the gig to stay in the SPL next season.

    Now the fun starts.

    5. RFC (2012), average age 17years old, play Ross County at Ibrox in the first game of the season and get humped 8-0. Second game of the season, they're at St Mirren Park, where a capacity 10000 crowd turn up "just in case", and it's 6-0 to the home team.

    6. 2nd home game of the season, a "crowd" of 2200 turn up at Ibrox to see RFC (2012) lose 9-5 to Hibernian (well, did you SEE their defence on Saturday?)

    7. RFC (2012) travel to Inverness, where Big Tel persuades his boys to go easy on the wee lads and win biy only 2-1.

    8. Every SPL club gets a new home attendance record againts RFC (2012) as clubs vie to set a new SPL scoring record.

    I HAVE A DREAM !!!!

    I predict that, even in this scenario, they will somehow dig deep to beat Motherwell :ph34r:

  3. The English's almost total ignorance of any Scottish always raises a chuckle and gives me much wind up material living in Englandshire. Watch any tv quiz and even the most simple question about Scotland has the contestant's eye's glazing over at the degree of difficulty they face trying to work out such as which town St Andrew's University is in.

    Let's be honest - we don't help by being total WUMs when naming new places.

    East and West Kilbride, anyone?

  4. I am totally confused why anyone connected with Rangers thinks the signing ban for 1 year is a particularly harsh punishment for the following reasons:

    1. They could have been kicked out of the SFA but weren't

    2. The can still re-sign existing players

    3. They have a squad strong enough to finish 2nd in the SPL and possibly compete with Celtic for 1st

    4. They are not in Europe next season so don't need to invest in players to get in to the Champions league

    The way DP&G and Fat Sally are going on they are either using this as a smokescreen to keep the fans anger pointed elsewhere or they know that there will be a mass exodus of players because the contracts were re-written (or both).

    What do you think?

    So they can say "One overly harsh decision by the SFA killed Rangers", rather than admitting the truth.

  5. Death better not come in the first week of June.....I'm on the Isle of Man watching the TT away from any internet capabilities at all. :angry::(

    Do I now have to purchase one of those new fangled 3G phones just in case I miss everything while away.

    If you can't afford one, can I recommend holding off on paying your tax for a bit, and then only paying the first installment?

    Can't think where I got that idea

  6. The TV and newpaper journos seem to have abandoned the "RFC must stay in the SPL" mantra, with the exception of Keef Jackson and that well-known Airdrie supporter, James "succulent lamb" Traynor. Looks like there's a looooooong line forming to get the boot into the Blue Meanies. As my old dad used to say, "if you can't kick a man when he's down, you'll never have the balls to kick him if he's standing up." This could be the best close season ever. Usually all you get is a constant load of pi$h from the Daily Ranger about who's signing for who, who wants to got to who etc. How are they gonnae fill their pages noo? " Rangers would like to sign X but cannae, Rangers would like to sign Y, but cannae, Rangers would like to sign Z but cannae......you get the picture, hey DR, gie's a joab!!!

    P.S. Mr Traynor was supposedly at his daughter's wedding in Australia. Turns oot he was actually in New Zealand where the lamb is particularly succulent. (hee haw)

    I can sort of see Traynor's point. If Rangers manage to sneak back in any guise, everyone will forget that Traynor's Airdrie United actually have no connection whatsoever to Traynor's Airdrieonians.

    Of course I may be giving him too much credit...
