  1. Re EU, if you think we'll get kicked out and that's bad what will happen if we vote NO. UK is going to have a referendum on it - how do you think that will go? Currency - think about it from an English perspective. Your second largest trading partner wants to continue using the currency they and you do. Do you A) keep things simple and do that, or B) screw over your own businesses by making trading far far more difficult, time consuming and costly for them (knowing that businesses will bitch like f**k that you're deliberatley making life difficult for them). Obviously, Cameron, Osborne, Darling and the other Tories aren't going to say that just now but logic dictates they will do the sensible thing at the time. You've also probaly read the latest in the financial press showing traders think the sterling zone idea is a good one http://www.bloomberg.com/news/2013-12-02/pound-bid-of-scots-nationalists-supported-by-traders-currencies.html so I would hope that would ease some of your fears there. Nuclear facilities - seriously?? I'd like them not to be kept a metaphorical stones throw from our largest city for one thing. Who is going to attack us? Hopefully nobody, but the only threat is a terrorist one. They will not be using nuclear misssles. We should get rid of them and use the money to increase spending on our intelligence services (as suggested in the White Paper).
  2. That was meant to be a bit tounge in cheek - although a bit ironic that those at different ends of this particular spectrum find themselves as bedfellows. The first part of my post was not ironic and it genuinely saddens.
  3. The Orange Order - how can you say you are a Christian organisation when your sole prupose appears to be to hate other people who are also Christians but take a different view on how best to love Jesus. I give up. BTW - VOTE NO in the referendum and you too will be showing your support for the orange order http://www.orangeorderscotland.com/ (no need to go past the first page).
  4. Knew a guy called 'Size 10' cos his feet were size 10. Top nickname - why him and not anyone else with size 10s? Who knows, who cares.
  5. Here we go again - on P&B all day, every day. Desperately pretending to work and not get sacked for spending all my life online. Perhaps a fighting fund for those sacked due to excessive P&Bing should be started now The The Sevco have started a new chapter in merryment giving.
  6. Don't give Traynor your money. Don't bother buying the record - somebody will post the story up here anyway (from their website). For all actual news there are a million websites to choose from, none of which give money to that lowlife. I'm sure we all do this anyway but I would actually like that p***k to lose his job; he survives by creating mistrust and propogating half truths or full on lies. BTW - just listened to the Sportsound podcast, Cosgrove for President. Not so easy when you can't just cut them off, Traynor.
  7. Traynor is a p***k. that article basically supports those morons who'd physically attack Hutton and the rest of the RR board. Traynor = lowlife.
  8. Just thinking, on one hand 'Rangers' should really be suspended from all football for the amount of amoral activities they have undertaken - my specific bugbear is tax avoidance at such a massive level (cheats every single one of us, cheats our nurses, doctors, soldiers etc. who get paid and suplied via our taxes). I think a 1 - 2 year ban then allowing them to reapply is fair. That said, if at the begining of all of this if you'd have told me they wouldn't play in the SPL, there was a good chance they'd be in Div3, that Naismith, McGregor, Davis, et al would all leave for nothing and that their business case doesn't appear to stack up, I'd have a gentle - and just - smile. Thought three of course is that I might now want them to stay in the SPL as that'd mean we wouldn't be the shoo-ins for relegation we appear to be this year. (joking - let them die).
  9. Totally agree with this. Put them in SFL1 then a small % of clubs will play them twice. Put them in SFL3 nearly all the clubs will play twice, and they'll get some sort of TV deal for the whole time they're there. It would seem commercially stupid to put them in SFL1 from the perspective of SFL clubs.
  10. Just looked at Jim Spence's twitter account. Why can't Rangers fans understand the more they treat people like that, the more normal people will hate them. They nearly all come across as total and utter lowlife scum.
  11. Why, that would make it really easy for the nutjob element to track people down and explain the error of their ways to them in accepted Rangers style.
  12. Way behind on the thread now. Was that Colin Jackson on STV who had white hair when he played? I remember thinking he looked about a hundred back then. Anyway, feeling a bit down this morning. McColl will give Smith £12 - 15m to give to Green. Everybody wets themselves over Sir Wattie, Rangers go straight back into SPL. No discernible punishments. Next team that goes anywhere near admin gets a huge punishment. I give up on football.
  13. As a 6 year old, no, of course you don't. As an adult in their 20s, 30s, 40s, 50s, etc.. you can make a choice of whether you want to continue giving your support and money to an instituion that uses sectarianism as (at best) a tacit part of their appeal. You are an adult, you can change your mind. I'm guessing most of us with kids have friends who don't take their kids to Rangers or Celtic although they used to go themselves as they are basically decent folk who don't want to expose their children to that. I've a good mate in Glasgow who was a Celtic season ticket holder. He brought up this point a few months back saying if his kids are interested in football then the family are off to see Partick. In my mind, those are the choices respectable adults make for themselves and their children, and conversely those who understand what Celtic and Rangers are both doing to keep sectarianism alive in the country but still choose to support them have should beashamed of that.
