You've got me wondering now. Which 3 do you place above Cardhu?
Linkwood, Longmorn, Mortlach.
I’m no expert but my old father was. Never without a dram in the evening. Never the worse for it. He took it the correct way - alternate sips from a glass of water.

Rangers, their witnesses and their lawyers well and truly monstered by the judge.

Funnily enough, I've never tried it. Is Glenfiddich one of the 3 better?
Not quite but it’s all a matter of individual taste. You’ll never go wrong with Glenfiddich.

Lucky man. Only three better and not by much.

What’s Dross Clarty doing in the short leet?
On reflection, I suppose they have as much chance as aberdeen or the other self-appointed title aspirants. Damn them, nonetheless.

Easy enough to get around. Create a company from wealthy supporters, have them capitalize said company, make said company a sports distribution company, offer a ton of money to act as distributor, show Ashley the offer, have him refuse to match the price (because it’s too exorbitant), contract goes to other, friendly bidder, bidders give RFC the funds (which could have went into RFC anyway as capital) and the cycle with Ashley is broken.
All the above is hypothetical..... and I’m probably missing something but I don’t see why it couldn’t be done.
Sounds good right enough but there’s an air of illegality about it, what exactly, I don’t know. Unfair commercial practice? Circumvention?
It must be very difficult to break the contract as it stands. The shareholders might have some remedy against the officers of the company who agreed the terms but that doesn’t get rid of Ashley unless there were inducements. Of somesuch (#dB) there is not a shred of evidence.
The questions are: is the legal advice unsound, is the Board proceeding contrary to advice or is there a strategy leading up to a devastating counter attack?

Beating part-time sides 6-0 is run of the mill stuff.
Very true but Rangers have often struggled to do that in recent times.

I have him down as more of a 'scamp'.
In no way do I consider him now, nor have I ever considered him, a pig thick, pot ugly, hick town scrote, with the habits of an East St Louis whore, and the morals of an East St Louis pimp.
Experience-wise, you’ve probably got the advantage of most of us there, Uilleam.

A club has to climb a high wall to get to the EPL, individuals can get in via a phone call.
How true. Well put.
Bruce doesn’t have a glittering managerial career, does he? Failed at Sunderland. Failed at Villa. Making him manager is like fishing a drowning man out of the pool and appointing him lifeguard.

I thought Willoughby was going to be a pretty decent successor to Ian McMillan. He played beautifully in the final against Morton.

When you see the side set out like that it shows the ever increasing number of alternatives.

You’d think he could afford tuppence for a razor blade.

Very interesting. I’d put Palace higher up and West Ham lower down.
In my dream league Wolves would win it but I wonder if in real life they can sustain the performances of the last two seasons.
Still in dreamland, ‘Spurs would be second, the Villa and Sheffield United would do well. There would be a mass relegation of Leicester, Watford, So’ton, Bournemouth, Palace, Norwich and Brighton. Apologies to fans of any of them. They’ve not really done anything to deserve such unreasoned prejudice.
In my nightmares, Manchester United have to turn it round sometime but it may need a proper manager before that happens.
I’m changing my prediction method this season. I’ve put away my 1950s Charles Buchan’s Football Monthlies and I have banished hope and sentiment. Current form and measured potential will be the new system.
I predict a success rate of around 3.75%.

Obviously, a Producer or a grouping of Producers(what is the collective noun for BBC Scotland Producers) like the sound of Angela's voice!
A Chapter, obviously but perhaps a diocese?

Correct, Bill but in your example the vendor has already made the selling decision and fixed the price . No evidence of such with McCrorie.
Gives Portsmouth an incentive to give the player the best chance to do well. Or maybe not just too well.

It would be very interesting to know what advice Counsel gave as to the prospects of success. Was it less than evens? Not many commercial litigants want to go ahead at a less than 60% chance.
