  1. Can you imagine Sammy Cox or Bobby Shearer or Stuart McCall or any amount of others lucky to wear the blue coming out with the like of that?
  2. I fear City have blown it. What happened the last time I thought that? It's either L'pool or Chelsea now. L'pool play the more spectacular football so I hope it's them. Can they carry the burden of my expectation or is the title bound for the Bridge?
  3. "in more ways than one we need a Fergus McCann type at rangers. both to rescue us and to cease the gravy train." - gs. What's the wee guy doing these days? We could be doing with someone not very keen on the celtic-minded. Rescued them from insolvency, built them a new stadium - ok, not the best but better than the old cp - bullied them into an appearance of acknowledging the Ibrox disaster, castigated a certain type of bigot and all in a few years. Walked off with a shilling or two at the end but at least he did a job for his dime and the tims don't like him. Perfect cv!
  4. "do Scotsmen living in Scotland believe that anyone in exile is no longer a Scot/has forfeited their birthright due to living in a different country ...... ?" Nope. You're a Scots South African or a South African Scot. Only the SNP think otherwise. If the McFuhrer wins you'll have to apply for Scottish citizenship - if you still want it by that time.
  5. I would have thought there might be some anxieties about this at the Bridge, no?
  6. "Full speed ahead for the mighty ship Rangers." These days are gone now, And in the past, they will remain. I fear. (That song is about as bad as Merlin)
  7. Terry >Kompany. Agreed. But Suarez>>than Terry.
  8. Many red and white scarves as you would expect. One or two MC, well they are the visitors. Oh and a green and white one. Doubt if it was an exiled hi bee. They can't help themselves, can they?
  9. Will they be shattering the seats in despair? Steve May the big star. Looks a bit weird but he can play. Tims will want to sign him.
  10. Brahim Hemdani, whom I acknowledge to be a man of wisdom wrote this: "He (Aird) has often reminded me of Alex Scott. Unlike Willie Henderson, Alex Scott didn't beat many opponents but he was a devastatingly effective player." I quite like Aird. He tries and doesn't hide. But Scott he's not. Scott scored three on his debut while still in his teens and a few days later got two against the Gunners in a friendly at Highbury. He was the most direct winger I ever saw. Ian McMillan would take out one defender with the pass, Scott would rocket past the second and deliver the cross or finish it himself. A hundred + goals from the wing. So, yes, I like Aird but he's got a long way to go to stand comparison with Scott.
  11. As the tims used to sing "Pow-lo dee Canny- o". Pardew - resources wasted. Here's controversy - Wenger, resources not used. Only one winner there to my mind.
  12. Aguero to Chelsea? Can the Russki outbid the Sheiks? Would he fit in at the Bridge? Do you not have enough nifty wee guys? I thought you needed a Drogba Mk 2. Anyway City to win if Toure turns up and Hart can keep Suarez out.
  13. I see the argument for Pulis but no, not for me. Pellegrini? City play magical football. Rodgers? Very strong case but my granny wasn't a good manager and she'd do all right with Suarez in the team. But hold on, the Genius needs to be managed and BR seems to have got the hang of it. Mourhino? His record speaks for itself. Martinez? Oh yes and what could he do at Arsenal? Pellegrini's the one and it's still an hour or so 'til the kickoff at Anfield. Expect revisionism before evening.
  14. Not bothered any way really. Soccer-science-wise Athletico v Bayern would be best option.
  15. "level-headed journos" Sorry dB but the words "level-headed" and "journos" are impossible to combine.
  16. Anyone know how to kick this thing?
  17. " The new owner, having no money, does what every businessman in this situation should to help their cash flow and stops paying all unnecessary expenses. A harsh reality of business is the first such payments that should cease when any company has cash shortages are anything to HMRC." "Should"?
  18. Still not a good idea, though, is it? I seem to recall Duff & Phelps in their first report saying the Company had been using the PAYE deductions as working capital "not a sound business strategy". It's usually a sign that a business is on its last legs is it not? Buying time. Putting off the evil day. Not many recoveries from that position I don't think.
  19. Murder in Munchen tonight? You would think so but I had a feeling about Chelsea and EPL sides are hard to beat. On the other hand Chelsea's task was not so hard and when you do beat an EPL side it's often a drubbing.
  20. I thought last week they were still in it. Two goals and a clean sheet at the Bridge not a major problem. As for JM being the greatest, I'll review the matter in five years time.
