  1. I see aided and abeted by our wonderful truth seeking meejah, the delusional saga of Fanta Rangers 1690, or whatever their called goes on a pace. All this verbage about Blue Knights riding to the rescue(presumably on a white horse!) seems to miss the obvious point that in the present situation a rescue deal is somewhat unlikely. What is equally unlikely given the panic engulfing Park Gardens nothing short of Craig Whyte being named as the third man in the murder of JFK, is likely to see Rangers getting chucked out of the SPL. I just wonder how the powers would be would react if it were a "wee" team who were in that position. Its all so fecking predictably depressing and does make you wonder why the SFA don't just have a top flight of two.
  2. Its usually pointless trying to compare players from different eras the only thing I can say is that Maradona's the best player I;ve ever seen live(even at 18) and Messi is the best ny some distance that I've seen on tv.
  3. Unfortunatety that wouldn't be that muchdifferent from now, meaning you now from day one we aren't going to win it. However, it would be fun to see the currant buns play at a lower level than even Thistle have been in the worst of days.
  4. To be fair I thought Pressley was far and away the most rational Scottish contributer. Loved when Uncle Walter said that fans and I guess we all know what kind of fans he means, only want to see a certain quality of player. Sorry, Walter I think that sort of approach is what got your lot into trouble, wasn't it. As a whole the programme was the usual anodyne crap we've used to and of course SFA will change!
  5. Its really sad, to see that the "neutral" Scottish press are having incredible difficulty with the startling concept that the laws of economics apply to Rangers and that they can't simply magic it out of thin air!
  6. Don't we just, still makes my blood boil, if I ever needed a reason to dislike the H*ns that game provided it!!!
  7. In all nonesty I'm getting fed up listening to the Rangers glee club's shock about the rules that every one else in the country should apply to Glasow Rangers. What did they honestly expect a knight on a white horse to ride to their rescue? It really is amazing that after years of complaining about the state of Scottish Football, now Rangers are in trouble its the end of civilisation as we know it. i can definetly predict one thing they'll get hey haw from me!
  8. I was debating whether to go to this game, but I'm glad I went in the end ( apart from the bloody cold!)I thought we were comfartable, though to be fair Morton were sh*t, especially in the first half. To be honest after due reflection and a couple of shandies, I thought it was an OK performance. Particularly, in light of last weeks result.

  10. Cameron coming to Edinburgh to address "naughty schoolchildren" is a PR dream for the SNP. Mind you nany factors at the moment are PR victories for the SNO e.g. whenever the opposition at Holyrood advance practically any argument, they tend to be so politically inept that I shudder to listen. That should not be taken as a green light for any utterances Salmond makes, his personal tendency towards smugness and arrogance, is a real bugbear of mine. Furthermore, the hoary old chestnut of England wishing to be rid of us, would in fact be a valid argument if Scotland were a subject country subject to English dictat, which of course is untrue, isn't it? The real reason for the Prime Ministers visit is that it allows him a nice opportunity to wrap himself in the Union flag and to show Tory voters, in the south of England what a great defender of tradition he is.. In other words Cameron is playing to his domestic audience and any benefits to the Scottish Unionist cause must be secondary to that prime objective.
  11. What is the position with Hearts and Dunfermline regarding the money owed them? If they lose out on a technicality i.e. Rangers to go bust, its hardly likely to endear Rangersto to either club. Especially since neither is particularly flush. In additioin, the trust element which even today is vital in the day to day running of sport, would take a huge dent. On the bigger picture I believe that HMRC should pursue any underpayment of tax to the nth degree, pour courage les autres. Finally, Alex Salmond, should be exceptionally wary of becoming involved in a very controversial area, in other words shut up.
  12. Even allowing for theh fact that most of us have had a good chuckle, as is usual with any story involving the OF it eventually becomes a tad tiresome.The blanket coverage in such august media outlets as the "Daily Ranger"(which I haven;t bought in years, incidentally) together with the despair of Chick Dung and co. is starting to annoy me now. Considering the multitude of problems in the world at the minute, The state of Glasgow Rangers isn't high in my priority list. Besides, I'm much more interested in the state of Partick Thistle!
  13. Makes the whole Daniel Cousins thing even stranger. I doubt the full ll extent of the somewhat "unorthod ox" approach, at Ibrox has been revealed.If I hear another currant bun going on about Rangers's history, that'll be their failure to sign a Caffolik for 110 years or so etc. etc. Really bloody glorious waisni' t it!
  14. Laugh, its so funny. Sympathy for Rangers, none whatsoever.
  15. I'm sure all Jags fans will be upset as me at the sad news fom Castle Greyskull. What odds of a dodgy penalty?
  16. Have to be honest I hate NDP it's a sou;ess windswet bus shelter and I.m afraid if Thistle were to migrate to a similar home it woukd take considerable effort to get me along.
  17. In reality there's more chance of me playing for Barcelona than Rangers been allowed to go bust.
  18. Oh goodie that means that we can look forward to even more impartial reporting of the Currant Buns than we've hitherto enjoyed! To be serious for a minute, it seems a bit of a strange commercial decision bearing itn mind that Rangers are far from everyone's cup of tea., to say the least.
  19. Much as it pains me to admit it over thirty years of following thistle there have been significantly more failures than succeses. Despite my own personal dissapointment, I cannot join this silly sack the manager campaign. McNamara may or may not be the man for the job, but it is virtually impossible to come to a considered judgement so soon in his managerial carreer. Without wishing to sound like some sage old git, just what do MacNamara's detracters expect? As i've said before we've no money, shit crowds and players of limited ability
  20. A nice wee early Christmas present. I see Super Ally is considering appealing McCulloch's dismissal no doubt as Rangers have an apparently important game on Wednesday! Methinks that referee won't go far in Scottish football applying the rules without fear or favour it simply won't catch on up here.
  21. Sound idea and a fitting way to remember a true Jags legend and a really nice guy incidentally.
  22. Couldn't agree more, I know supporters are fickle, but we are not entitled to look for miracles, a 1-o defeat at the hands of the leaugue leaders is hardly the end of the world as we know it. Disapointing yes, but we must get up and go again. I'm fully appreciate how annoying it is but in many years of watching Thistle, false dawns I'm afraid have proved more common than glorius success. However, I think we have to be more realistic, a look at the resources available to the manager, will I think show that our position in the league is about where we could honestly expect it to ne. Mind you who ev ever said that being a football supporter, being a Jags fan in particular has ever had much to do wih cold logic or indeed rationality.
  23. As a matter of course I don't like commenting on criminal cases when I'm not fully acquainted with the actual facts. However, it does beg the question, will Tayside police and their little helpers, be as zealous in their application of the law when those famously, law abiding Old Firm fans are on one of their friendly visits?
