Paralysis Through Analysis Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 So let's see, since the incepcion of the SPL the national team has failed to qualify for the finals of a major tournament but to be fair we did reach the last 3 of the Kirin Cup once Embdy else want to see every team actually bring through and give their youngsters a chance? I know I do. Young Scottish players being given a chance to develop, make their mistakes, learn & improve their game and I genuinely think with time our international prospects would improve. Fans and OUR game first. In Spence we trust. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

welshbairn Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 I personally thought that Traynor knocked one out at the end of his lunch hour ......hopefully one of his last..... Anyway, where is Chico at the moment? Cheers PA Thanks for that image.. Anyway, when I did sums in school we had to show our workings. Any chance Jim? ..research has shown the game will lose £16 million 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
xbl Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Jim Traynor's genuinely schizophrenic attitude to the whole shebang took a new turn. He went off on a Leggo rant. We're All Gonnae Die Whilst Hugh Keevins wept. And in the same paper, George Adams makes a subtle hint to Rangers. Don't Buy Your Dinner at Marks and Sparks If You Can't Afford It Essentially, the Sports Editor has no sense of irony. Cheers for the summary! So quiet day the day then? That Traynor column is absurd. Rabble rousing hysteria at its finest. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
zurcher Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 (edited) For the sake of clarity I am not suggesting Traynor is a diety. The fat cnut could be doingg with going on a diety though eh? Consider my coat got. *Edit to acknowledge that I've probably been beaten to this by about 50 people in all likelihood Edited July 2, 2012 by zurcher 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
blanco Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 At the moment, it's pretty much the case that if you don't say no then you're all for them and going to end up with some sort of backlash, although that's annoyingly similar to the OF mentality of "if you're no with us then you're against us". Surely everybody else can't be displaying signs of mob mentality, i thought was only the great unwashed that were blighted by such uncouth behaviour. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
FinnesTON Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Saw copy of the record today... Keevins and Traynor are absolute morons. They don't seem to understand where the resentment towards Rangers has come from. They, along with Celtic have made Scottish football uncompetitive, dull and manipulated the rules and distribution of money for their own benefit, and in the case of Rangers, then failed to stick to the rules they coudln't manipulate. All this while being bigoted and violent. Can they not see why the diddy team fans would like to have a go without them ruining it for everyone? Also worth having a look at the Rangers fans on the hotline section - utterly crazy human beings. I have to disagree but they are condemned by their actions that they enjoy their position and all the trappings that have went with that. What they are doing now is shear self protection they are as guilty as dead Rangers supporters in their total denial of any wrong doing. Really I would have more sympathy if they were just ignorant but it isn't this is actively creating an agenda for personal gain. For too long these people have lived in this environment but seem unwilling to view this as a chance to change our game, it is obvious the supporters want to drive this new era and anything that threatens that will have to realise they could become a casualty if the diddy teams supporters gain a greater influence/ 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Kitty_Boy Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 What are the likely outcomes of tomorrow's SFL meeting, do we think? Would like: Categorical 'nae chance' to Rangers entering SFL1, leaving SPL with the decision to either go against the wishes of supporters or condem newco to the Third Divsion, resulting in "financial collapse", £16M "taken out the game", etc. Expect: Delaying tactics. Something about requiring further information, there not being a vacancy, etc: 'After you, SPL'. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Old Diamond Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 Sitting in my local and a newco top wearing goon has just been chucked out for not covering his top. The scumbag was effing and blinding in front of his wee girl.....nice. http://www.bbc.co.uk/news/uk-scotland-18675046 Japanese tourist guide warning over Scots football and sausage A new guide book for Japanese tourists visiting Scotland has warned them to avoid people wearing football shirts, and not to eat flat sausages.Written in Japanese, the Insider's Guide to Scotland, is published by Edinburgh-based Luath Press. In the book, potential visitors are told never to approach men wearing green or blue football tops, but to make sure they go on a pub crawl and get "merrily drunk" on Scottish whisky. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Real Saints Posted July 2, 2012 Share Posted July 2, 2012 So how's the Van Persie signing going? Still got that wee ginger lad who lied about fishing on the Bann? I'm aware of everything you have and will lose...... Strange post. Your initial question makes me believe you think the level of financial success can only be measured by big-money signings. It is this attitude which has brought Rangers to their near death and, if those in charge at Celtic FC share the same views as yourself, both OF clubs will be 'extinct' long before little, diddy St. Johnstone. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
