Cliche Guevara

So what do we think - is AberdeenHibee a prescious little twat incapable of objective reasoning?

Preferably

I disagree and would welcome you elaborate...

Any chance of an emergency consignment of greenies - just for the next 24 hours.

Finally! Get them looked out folks

I forgot about that

Remember there is no such thing as 4G

Is that for funding? You wouldn't need to apply to the council to change your playing surface surely?

Yes

Sorry boys but a move from QoS to Falkirk is a step up. Always has been and always will be. If AJ was manager of either side then the potential for Falkirk to return to the SPL would be far greater than if he remained manager at Queens. As much as you've had a great season I think a good few of you are getting very carried away about how well this team would do in Division 1, and what the potential of the club really is.

Not for for purpose? Illiterate etc...

I think it's decent of you to say so - if it's any consolation I have tried to contribute positively to this thread and got where you were coming from. I also accidentally sound like a c**t sometimes on account of my comedy influences.

Settle man

As I say I'm no expert on this, but it's certainly not simple as you say. I think the answer lies in your question as to how happy people should be. I think the condition is generally very far removed from how happy you are or not. I think if you are aware of what is depressing you, and you can rationalise it, then perhaps it's more environmental. If your condition is particularly acute and you don't recognise anything in your life that should be making you feel as you do maybe that's more chemical. I think you're totally right here. I've had a hellish couple of years with the side-effects of alcohol. Really brutal hangovers that have left me struggling mentally and physically. The worst thing is I was drinking more to try and rid myself of the effects, which was in danger of creating a downward spiral. I had no idea what was happening to me for a long time, and didn't realise that sort of thing happened with alcohol - and I turned forty this year.

You were lucky! There is no question, and that is something you will definitely recognise in time. What drove you to whatever you tried to do was very much of the moment. I reckon that many of the people who have taken their own life wouldn't do so again, if they were given a further chance - one day, one week, one year etc further down the line. It always gets better. Life always becomes worth it eventually. The feeling, urge, to take action is a symptom of an illness that over-powers people at certain points. It's never really what people want to do. It's never the right thing for anyone to do. It's just an illness fucking with your mind, and something you always have to be aware you have to fight if it ever materialises again. You have to be aware of periods of significant self-pity (for whatever reason that occurs) and any influence of drugs or alcohol that can drag your mind into an area you would otherwise be able to avoid entering. When I was a kid there was the campaign that taking LSD made you think you could fly, and people apparently jumped off buildings to their death. It was obviously bollocks and it never put anybody off. I always knew that when I was tripping if I ever thought I could fly I fucking couldn't, and it would just be the acid talking. This never happened, though, obviously but it's maybe something to bear in mind - if you ever feel like taking action again, it's just the condition talking. You need to recognise that, and remember it effects loads of people and you can always beat it. Always. It might take medical help, or the appropriate support and love of those around you. Understanding how you feel, and why, is very important too. Our minds are pretty crazy things. We are all pretty crazy in our own way, and do pretty crazy things in our lives sometimes, it's the nature of being a human. The key is to recognise that some things are not as important as you think and can be overcome or, alternatively, you can obtain medical assistance if that's what's required. You might want to change your user ID, too, as a start

That's what I'm talking about though. There are things that make lots of people 'depressed'. I think that's different from having depression though. I think having depression is something that exists outside of depressive episodes in your life. Certainly these kinds of episodes can compound depression, or make them more difficult to deal with, but I would draw a distinction between extremely saddening, or even traumatic life experiences, and what is really chemical ill health.

To be fair, with it being a quote there is an element of relevance and context to it. It's the comment it might appear to be.

Is this not a Partridge quote? About himself? If so maybe the red-dots are misplaced, albeit perhaps the quote was slightly misjudged in this instance. In my view there is a difference between depression and being depressed. I think being depressed is something that's more influenced by your experiences and your surroundings. A death in the family, unemployment, relationship breakdown etc. Unhappy events that lower your mood. Depression, to me, is more of a chemical thing that is more difficult to control. You could be on top of the world, living your life as well as you could ever want to, but there is a chemical event that depresses you uncontrollably. In my personal experience alcohol can be a real issue - either as a contributing factor to being depressed or exacerbating low mood. It's not anything I've studied, or anything, just a view I've formed.

Really? So who was it transferred from and to then?

And the truth will set them free!!! PS no need for the glorification of a terrorist organisation in your post! It's not necessary in Celtic Park and it's not necessary here

Simply not the case as I already demonstrated and others confirmed. A club membership belongs to a club and it does not transfer when there is a change of owner. You can't have it both ways. If the club and company are separate (which they aren't) there would be no need for a transfer of membership.

That doesn't make sense. It was actually a transfer of membership for a new club - that's why a transfer was required. It's the club who is the member of the SFA. You notice that Rangers didn't have to transfer its membership of the SFA when Whyte bought the club from MIM. If the fiootball club was a separate entity to the business that was liquidated its SFA club membership would have carried on unaffected. The SFA's rules expressly prohibit the transfer of membership (16) and describe membership as being as a football club (6). It also details the termination of membership which obviously means club membership. There is no way for a member football club to transfer its membership to itself. (of course bear in mind the fact that the football club and the company are the same thing)

He said legal action. You asked what legal action. I gave you an example. It was inconvenient for you to hear.

The police raiding Ibrox and seizing documents that were being illegally concealed, for a start.
