RANGERRAB

No!,we are as good as we think Rab!

Which is how good ?

Too many thought that game was over at 2-0

Let ourselves down big time tonight, all credit to Falkirk, but we should have walk it. But the sad thing is it gives Delia and Collins a false impression of us

Does it ? We are nowhere near as good as some of us think we are

how the fuck did we lose that game?

Very simple. Not scoring more goals when we were in front

One thing that I find most offensive about the word is how Celtic fans enunciate it - they tend to spit the word out viciously with contempt - much like you'd hear an openly racist, neo-nazi spit out their derogatory terms for blacks, Jews and gays. They don't seem to use it as a word for us in casual parlance with normal inflection.

Do you expect them to ?

Oirlund must be the only country that got independence only for its people to go and live in the country it got independence from after it became an economic basket case.

Can I ask you why the SNP would lie? There is no motivation for them to do so as they would be left carrying the can.

 

If Scotland are better off outside the UK, SNP have no reason to lie, and in fact they must be telling a lot of truth.

If Scotland are worse off outside the UK, SNP have no motivation to lie - they are just mistaken, generally nobody lies to create a situation where they are worse off.

 

If Scotland are worse off outside the UK leaving rUK better off, rUK have no reason or motivation to lie, generally nobody lies to create a situation where they are worse off.

If Scotland are better off outside the UK leaving rUK worse off, rUK HAVE A REASON to lie. (Although doesn't mean they have lied.)

 

There is only one side and scenario where lying makes any sense.

Come on the SNP told a whole pack of lies leading up to the 2014 referendum.

Lets rewind to February 2014 when the support for independence was barely 30 percent in the polls. The SNP had to take drastic action so they embarked on a whole series of lies & deceit to convince people to vote YES.

They said there would be currency union with rUk............... lies.

They said there would be EU membership............................. lies

They said the price of a barrel of oil would be 113 USD.........lies

Thankfully It didn't convince enough guillible voters to vote YES otherwise we'd be in economic meltdown now as last weeks GERS figures showed to those who understand what they mean

No bitterness at all James.

However on the 12th of July it is the day when we get to show our superiority over people like you in this country. So much so you may wish to return to the bankrupt, EU-bailed out state that is Ireland.No surrender.

Not much height in the team DJ says apart from the CB's ?

Both FB's wallace & Tavernier must be around 6ft. And Halliday & O'Halloran are just under 6ft AFAIK. The GK is well over 6ft so other than up front( and I think that will change for next season) I wouldnt say Rangers are a small side at all. Quite the opposite in fact.

Maybe DJ has been over-indulging in the ibrox hospitality these days

Halliday vs Brown could well decide the outcome of this game. It's vital Halliday doesn't get himself over-involved with the lego-eater

Do you mean a payment from Lloyds bank or the HMRC? Or a knee job from a former.............

nope not them.

You have to wonder whether there was outside influence on the three strooges 'common sense' verdict

Playing against the team who are top of the premiership & by not being in the top division we are not favourites to win the SC semi regardless of what we think.

I suspect Souness is thinking along those lines

What they are saying Rab is, that the tax laws in place at the time were NOT adhered to.

I realise that butI have yet to hear anyone explain in what way they were not adhered to. They certainly seemed ok at the FTTT & UTTT but only since the three stooges came up with their 'common sense' has there been anything to the contrary.

Yes, they have legal basis to claim interest and penalties even if the law is only changed now. Seems unfair to me too, but that is what tax Statute allows for.

So HMRC could claim despite the fact that the tax laws in place at the time of EBT's may have been adhered to???

Bet you one million dollars no-one explains the 'better together' question and this thread disappears into oblivion!

Maybe a £15billion budget deficit according to last weeks GERS figures explains why we're better together with the rUK.

We dodged a bullet bigstyle not voting for independence.

Thankfully enough in this country were wise enough to see thro' the SNP white paper lies

5,000 UK companies used EBT schemes before they were closed.

What was it about Rangers scheme that made HMRC chase Rangers & not others?

if the EBT's were proved to comply with the law at the time HMRC will get nothing

As much as the club has +10%?

And where did you get this from ? Kerryfail St ?

My understanding is that HMRC are pushing for the tax, interest and penalties to be paid.

so how much are they 'pushing for' then ?

All very well but I'm not convinced fan ownership is for every club. It could be very limited in its access to external funding for starters which would be disadvanatageous unless it had wealthy supporters prepared to underwrite its borrowings.

FWIW I don't see it happening at Rangers because I think T3B & DK will increase their shareholdings at some point in the near future

Who Lee Welsh ????? In title

see the BBC were covering their arses last night on the wireless. McLaughlin was wheeled on to talk about Celtic fans IRA chanting and the SPFL response. Guess your complaint has made them try to appear even handed. Just note that this was on 15'th March after several complaints had been sent to them

no doubt McLaughlin either didn't hear anything at the game or wasn't there

I wouldn't believe a word he says.

The SPFL & the SFA wont do anything.

Only the shortbread senate at holyrood could do something but they won't either as they need the yahoo vote
