    I hated that top, not at first, since I bought it, but every time I wore it, we got beat. I'd rather three solid stripes. It would also be good if the club had the means to print names on the back. 

    I got one in 2008 done at Greaves Sports on Sauchiehall St, but think it was something to do with Partick Thistle, they did a rotten job and it started peeling off within a day.

    I wonder if you got the patches/letters/numbers yourself (http://www.sporting-id.com/portal/official-league/spfl-15.html) if TTL would put them on for you for like a fiver or something (assuming it's them that does it for the club and not a third party).

  2. I thin enough time has passed for me to take some flak.

    the kids top having a white gap with no sponsor instead of a continuous stripe - I was called and asked my view on what would be best & suggested the gap because I'd assumed that kids would want to wear a jersey as close to the players version as possible.

    In hindsight it was a shoddy call and would have been ten times better without.

    hope you can all find it in your hearts to forgive me. #forgivenessisthekey

    Really wouldn't be keen on Shankland, immobile and doesn't score many, we have the Prince and he offers far more than I've ever seen Shankland offer. There's surely better options there, Hilson, McHugh or Baird would do me.

    just had a really vivid throwback to about 2008, you standing on the touchline at Montrose slowly going "Baaaaaa-iiiiiiirrrrrd" seeming to really get to him :lol:

    :lol: Forgot about that, fairly sure he had a Rangers badge on his chest too #Staunch

    Not his chest, the side of his head!

    I did, in a quiet moment, go "Davey, mate ... you not worried that you're in the wrong place at the wrong time and someone takes offence at it?" & he went "naaaaaaah, I'm a lovely big guy, no one's going to touch me" :thumsup2

    Looking at all UK leagues bar the odd upset, the table positions at the end of the season match ££££££ .Sadly that's the way it goes.

    Along these lines, if anyone's looking for a good stocking filler book, I highly recommend Soccernomics (though when I  read it it was called 'Why England Always Lose' a more attractive title!)

    also if, like me, you hate yourself & want to make yourself feel utterly dejected then there's also 'The Elusive Fan' which is a look at what European Football Clubs can learn from the US in terms of attracting fans & creating a match day experience to protect the clubs finances.

  6. 26th Dec 1994 at Boghead, Sons 4 - 0 East Fife

     

    I know I went to quite a few games before then but that's the one I first distinctly remember because I was sitting on top of the away dugout giving Steve Archibald top bantz like "ha ha, you's are rubbish"

     

    he was raging.

  7. As nice as it would be to welcome you guys to the Rock, it's just as likely we'll draw Ross County and need to head for Dingwall on a Tuesday night.  I just can't understand the decision, as S08 says, why have Falkirk in the North draw and Stenny in the South and then force Dumbarton, who are less than 15 miles from Glasgow, to travel north.

     

    It's the result of the seedings.

    North

     

    1. Ross County, Inverness CT, Dundee, St Johnstone

    2. Dundee Utd, Raith, Falkirk, Dumbarton

    3. Elgin, Peterhead, Cove Rangers, Brechin, Forfar, Arbroath, Montrose, East Fife, Dumfermline, Cowdenbeath, Alloa, Stirling

     

    South

     

    1. Kilmarnock, Motherwell, Hamilton, Partick Thistle

    2. QoTS, St Mirren, Rangers, Morton

    3. Annan, Stranraer, Berwick, Ayr, Queens Park, Livingston, Edinburgh City, Airdrie, Albion Rovers, Clyde, Stenhousemuir, East Stirlingshire

     

    if we were in the south pot we would have finished 9th & been in the playoffs :) (or potentially if Hibs had Hibsed it)

  8. Kit chat already!! (by the way - I reckon we still need two more points to be sure)

     

    Assuming we were sticking with Joma stuff (I have no idea)

     

    The best off the shelve option is:

    Or if it's something like our current kit that's modified to suit us then versions of these seem most likely:

    In terms of away strips, if it was up to me I'd be very tempted to try something a little different and go with:

     

    20151110132658100417159.png

    with a monochrome style badge!

     

    or if you want to stick to something more traditional there are a few options on the sampdoria style kit:

    or possibly something more like

  9. as one of those 'wah wah wah I've been a fan since forever & have seen them a billion times and this just isn't as good as the first two albums' fans I can say, wah wah wah I've been a fan since forever & have seen them a billion times and this just isn't as good as the first two albums

  10. a thought just occured to me - can't believe it won't have been mentioned before but I've not seen it

    all the chairmen & bodies are going on about how much money Rangers bring to the table ... but that money they brought in was based on big signings - fan interest - sponsor interest - on the field success - increased TV interest - a house of cards that comes tumbling down when you realise that all of that was funded y debt & wont be allowed to happen so even IF Rangers transfer is accepted, they get into the 1st Division, then win promotion straight away, there's no money there to make the big leap into Europe that the other clubs apparently need them to have ... so where is the magic money that they must be saved for coming from?

  11. this isn't an SFL vote yet though, in order for the SFL clubs to take a vote on this the SPL chairmen must vote Rangers transfer share through so that they can be relegated

    so at least two, if not all, chairmen who assured fans they would be voting no will have to do a u-turn - it'll be brushed over in the media because no one wants to lose face in front of their fans but none of this can happen unless the SPL chairmen deem it so, then put pressure on the SFL clubs to accept it.

  12. Does the SFL not have a rule about clubs giving 12 months notice of leaving so how could we have an SPL2 within a shorter timeframe.

    presumably, it's the only way I can think it'd work, the SFA can revoke the SPL & SFL's licences to run a league ... which there will be no fight against because they've already 'shook hands on an agreement - DR'

    The irony being the thing that will rescue nuRangers will be a newco league

  13. This, something that sounds too good to be true IS too good to be true.

    it's like the description of Velociraptor attacks in Jurrasic Park, 'raptor A stands in front, & gets your attention by staring you out (SPL, SFL, 'the vote' cockwomble) while 'raptor B waits in the wings to broadside you when you least expect it (the SFA)

    we need to stand strong & let the authorities know we will not be Jurrasic Park'd

    or something

  14. unfortunatley I think a couple of those on RM have a (unintentional) point

    why exactly are all these chairmen falling over themselves to say no - they have not heard what the proposal is yet - there has been absolutely no mention of what sanctions would consitiute a yes vote & that, to my mind, in highly suspicious.

    I put it to you all that there wont be a vote, the chairmen already know this so can happily say they'd come out & say no to gain favour with the fans

    The SFA will steamroller in before the vote takes place & remove both the SPL & SFL from the picture, there will be not voting on it, it'll be like it or lump it (& by god will they f**king love it) Rangers will wnd up in whatever they decide is teir 2 as acceptance of the transfer of their SFA membership, the chairmen will say it was taken out of their hands & they had no choice.

    read all the articles coming out, they are all hinting at it, a plan is being made, discussions are underway, top level meetings we are having the wool pulled over our eyes and the chairmen are praying enough people go 'ah well, it wasn't my chairmans fault so I can keep going' - ask your self this, before coming out & saying no, when was the last time your chairman was upfront, honest, public facing or seen to be doing something in the interests of the fans?

    the deal is already done

  15. if/when Rangers are liquidated Green is going to move his loan into buying rangers assets, so Rangers are borrowing money to buy themselves (again)?

    someone needs to pull the plug on this as a favour to Rangers fans, still can't understand why the fans groups haven't just gone ahead and arranged an FC United style junior club already, they could have had the whole thing set up by now, have all the fans on side & have a solid case to take the SFL place.

  16. @STVGrant: STV can reveal Rangers haven't met criteria to play in SPL next season, extension given til June 15 to provide accounts http://t.co/0FXeIVL7

    What accounts?

    Whytes?

    D&P's ones since valentines day?

    A mix of the two?

    the previous years clubs accounts, in order to do that they need to call an AGM

    you need to have an AGM to approve the accounts

    you need to give 21 days notice to hold an AGM

    June the 15th is 19 days away

    Cheerio Rangers, Cheerio pals
