  1. Steve McLaren!!!!!!!! If he gets the gig, Hearts will boarding the relegation express before the end of October. The guy is useless. Look at his track record over the last 10 years, he's been canned from practically every job he's had due to poor performance of the teams he's been charged with managing.
  2. It's only 3 points, but 3 points against a team that we should be competing with at the top of the table. A bit early to be talking about "6 pointers" but that's what Saturday was if we are serious about challenging for the promotion places.
  3. Can only comment on what I've seen from the highlights online, but I'm surprised Samson didn't tip the ball over for a corner rather than slow it down and keep it in play in the box by parrying it across the goal. As for Falkirk's GK, two goals scored low to his left (is that an area of weakness for him?) and the third from him leaving his goal open after flapping unchallenged at a cross - hardly an impressive start to the season for him.
  4. http://www.scotsman.com/scotland-on-sunday/sport/rangers-newco-you-won-t-take-our-titles-says-defiant-ally-mccoist-1-2425462 And here it is again in even more detail - note the list of perceived punishments, only a few of which are actually punishments and relate only to relatively minor aspects of the fiasco. I think that a stronger brand of coffee is required at Ibokes 'cos they just ain't smelling the current one (see what I did there?)
  5. http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18938991 That new-found humility clearly had a shelf-life that was shorter than a Scottish summer!!!!!!!! The dumb f@cks just don't get it, even after all that's gone on. If you want to keep the history and the titles that were won right up to the death of the club formerly known as Rangers then deal with the consequences of how those were obtained. The Oxford English Dictionary defines punishment as: "an unpleasant experience imposed on someone as a result of a criminal or wrongful act. " Rangers have received very little in the way of punishment thus far. The 10 point penalty on entering administration, their subsequent demise into imminent liquidation and entry of their new entity to the 3rd Division are the natural consequences of their financial circumstances through the application of the agreed rules of the footballing authorities - THESE ARE NOT PUNISHMENTS. Punishments are what are dealt out in return for being caught cheating by using double contracts, fielding inelligible players due to wrongful registration, going crying to the Court of Session etc etc, the list of which goes on and on; and that's before we even get into the illegality of what brought us to where we are today by non payment of taxes and NI contributions ..... need I go on?
  6. Let them have one last walk on 12 July before killing them off on Friday the 13th?
  7. Apologies if this has already been posted, but WTF??????? Someone needs to explain the concept of what do when stuck in a hole....... http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18719894
  8. Out greenies so have one this way. Sounds simple when you put it that way.
  9. Can't remember where I came across it but a fail safe decision making process is already in use every few years. Once all meeting attendees are in the room someone locks them in, then presumably surviving on a diet of pancakes and pizza slipped under the door they are not allowed out until they have made a decision that the rules provide for. Wish I could remember where that came from ....
  10. Re-organisation of the leagues of course with no relegation from the SPL
  11. Look on the bright side - We all tried to make something significant happen on page 1690 of this thread. Are the SFL Chairmen simply buying time so that they can tell Sevco to Foxtrot Oscar on another significant date? Unlikely granted, but still another opportunity to point and laugh amongst the mire that this shambles has become.
  12. Looks to me like the SPL has a textbook case of Stockholm Syndrome http://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Stockholm_syndrome
  13. Chairman is thinking with his wallet. I will be giving serious consideration to the cancellation of my CIC subscription. I don't intend giving my money to an institutionally corrupt "sporting"competition or to a BoD that condones it.
  14. FFS if you interpreted my post as a direct incitement to harm or endanger the officialdom of Scottish football you need to get out more. Don't take things so literally. Simply a "tongue in cheek" way of expressing the level of popularity that "band of brothers" can probably expect and how they might want to deal with it.
  15. Who said anything about "harming"? I certainly didn't, but the blazers will need to consult their Bumper Book of Bullsh1t Explanations to talk themselves out of this one
  16. After waiting all this time if there is no vote tomorrow the Chairmen can kiss goodbye to what credibility they had left. As for the wuckfits presiding over this shambles from the SFA, SPL & SFL they had better make sure their passports are valid because they will have nowhere to hide from the justifiably disgusted Scottish football fans who, with the exception of Mr. Turnbull Hutton, appear to be the only people capable of differentiating between right and wrong here
  17. No coincidence that the non apology was made today, giving the media and those blazers in positions of influence a reference point to beat the SFL/SPL Chairmen with
  18. Only 4.5 months late, given that they must have known the unfathomable depth of the trouble they were in and they still can't separate themselves from the "it was the owners not us" argument http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/18687492 http://www.youtube.com/watch?v=Uuqry9SMjQM&feature=player_detailpage#t=108s
  19. There is one vital ingredient missing from that pic Poz, although it could be argued that the face does enough to explain what that might be.
  20. Any word on whether salaries have been paid at Ibrokes?????? Think about it boys and girls, Sevco has no income at present and has to pay salaries to all staff, even those that have announced they won't move across up until at least the time when they advised their intentions. What must that amount to and with another full month and more between now and the start of the season there will be next to no income in that period either. Meanwhile, there are the running costs of Ibrokes & MP and whatever other expenditure needs to be met. Who actually thinks the Sevco zombies 2012 will be around to see the start of the season in spite of the SFA/SPL/SFL's best efforts to nurse them along with the minimum of sanction for their cheating.?
  21. No, next year they will be the reconstituted, regurgitated husk of a once large club that had a history for 140 years .... That's if they make it until next year!
