  1. I'm anti-Tartan Army, not anti-Scotland.

     

    I agree with the comment but have deleted the slander as I'm not trying to start a message board fight. Im a member of the Supporters club and try to go to one game away a campaign and all the competitive home games - I'm based in London. Been to Germany, Italy, France, Slovenia, Sweden, Wales and one or two others. Going to the Brazil game and hope we get a great result. Love the Scotland team but the people who class themselves as "Tartan Army" are annoying and the idea has definitely been ruined by those jumping on the bandwagon. Seems to be full of attention seeking teucthers who make a nuisance of themselves and think shaking random foreigners hands makes up for everything. I never wear a kilt to a game.

  2. Armand2 and Le Chic. You are heroes. You are carrying on the protests of Tunisia and Egypt right to Maryhill. I salute your indefatigability. You have made your self righteous point whatever it was and managed to annoy people trying to do their best for the club. I salute you. What's your next token act? Self immolation on the bing?

  3. Hi Jags Trust Board. I used to be a member but resigned. Now I post open ended questions of nothingness for all to see instead of contacting you directly and trying to progress any issues in an effective and efficient manner. It's good to get my ill feeling out in the open by pretending I am interested but instead causing a bit of a scene especially during Christmas/New Year period where practically everyone shuts down for the year. Disclaimer: This is my translation of the original posting.

  4. Can anyone recommend some good comedy DVD's to buy so we can watch on Christmas Day? This is a much needed area to stop the family from falling asleep or bickering. However I need something relatively clean like Michael MacIntryre so Frankie Boyle is definitely off limits. Is the Kevin Bridges DVD ok to watch with olds?

  5. Why is it some people of "Irish" persuasion and I mean Irish in the loosest sense of the word 2nd, 3rd, 4th generation have such a huge chip on their shoulders about the UK and the British Armed forces when I work with loads of Indians, Pakistanis and Nigerians who couldn't give a toss and have a lot of respect for Britain despite all the nastiness that went with the British Empire. They can move on but some Irish just don't.

  6. Just saw my first one the other day, dressing gown, pyjamas and slippers standing at a bus stop on Maryhill Raod.

     

    What a picture she looked. Never believed it til I saw it.

     

    That was a patient from Gartnavel Hospital. Because of no-smoking restrictions you have to walk really far away from the building these days.

  7. This whole episode really paints the Scottish Socialist Party and people associated with them in a bad light. The left in Scotland had an opening with the Parliament but they will struggle to recover be it SSP, Solidarity or whoever. It's a real messy sordid affair. Never been a fan of Sheridan as I felt he was part of the rent-a-mob brigade, shouting people down, promising things that would never happen, banging on about his Granny from Govan as if that was some kind of status symbol and condesending the people he was supposed to represent. He's now going for his second degree (liked to keep his one from Stirling quiet) and is coupled up with Aamer Anwar who to me is another trouble maker on a power trip.

  8. There is a slight whiff of class bigotry here. I sincerely hope not.

    "Class bigotry" from the board or yourself? The whole working and middle class classification is redundant. A teacher and someone who works in and office is middle class but they could be making a lot less money than a person with their own plumbing or taxi business.

     

    Interesting comment from Gordon Chisholm on the fans rep at Dundee

     

    Dundee’s fans are demanding answers from the board about how they got themselves into a position where the club’s future is on the line and are questioning the role of the fans’ representative, George Knight.

     

    “George Knight was put on the board to make sure something like this didn’t happen,” added Chisholm.

     

    “He is the one man who should have been standing up and saying, ‘Wait a minute, this is not right’. His job was to let the fans know what was going on and he didn’t do it.

     

    “He’s a nice guy and down to earth but they all got blinded by Calum Melville’s money.”

  9. Can I just add that my comment was not a dig at the current Trust Rep. I've not had any dealings with this person. I absolutely agree that the rep doesn't need to be a business owner or professional but they need to conduct themselves in a business like and intelligent manner. This doesn't come down to wealth or "success" but personality.

  10. I welcome and agree with the statement. The men who have left have put time and money into the club, much more than the majority of the people who post and read on this board and that should be acknowledged. It's always very easy to snipe from behind your IP address while doing nothing positive to help the club. I hope people do send well thought out ideas to the club. Don't just send an email - "make tickets cheaper" or something along that line. We need justification for our thoughts. From the fans rep I think Mr Beattie is hinting that we need a rep on the board but that rep needs to be someone they can do business with. There's a huge gap between "Big Mick" who has supported the club for years and has named his kids after his favourite players to a fan who has some professional experience, can deal with the board who are all successful professionals in their own fields and who can communicate with the fans and club alike.

     

    I hope this change will bring back people to the club and to this board who have become disenchanted over the years. It wont hurt to come back and give it another go. It's in your blood and the club regardless of who is in the board room is always the thing that is most important.
