This is easily the most thoughtful, and insightful, thread on the topic so far. Don't read it if you have been asking for Knutsen or if you are a friend of Kevin Thomson.

As someone who takes an interest in middle eastern football I can tell you that his teams score very high in terms of xB. That's the expected beards metric common in the arabian peninsula. Quite different to the expected bigotry metric that we are more familiar with in Scotland.

Messi is good enough to win the Ballon d'Or but can he win on a roasting afternoon in the persian gulf?

I'm not including it in my analysis as xWMD is zero.

The list of names are all too well known for my liking. Too many recognisable vowels in the surnames as well. I have been keeping an eye on some promising bearded managers in the Kyrgyzstan second division. Wait untill you see xG for some of these guys. Through the roof for play, following on from throw-ins, during the key 25-38 minute stage. Will post an utterly meaningless pie chart after I finish analysing some Turkmen five-a-sides, from September '22, at double speed.

Neither do the Q.P.R. fans.

The Record are just making stuff up.

Sounds like good craic.

Sounds like good craic.

Good point. That was such a long time ago. I think I had forgot about it.

Oh no. Not that garbage about an assistant with local knowledge again. I'll need to dust off all of my anti Barry Ferguson talking points yet again.

I will take the fellow from Hearts. I don't know if he would be any good. I'm just sure that his name isn't Knutsen.

I think that the ubiquity of these 'values' makes them worthless as part of any individual club brand or identity.

Are there any football clubs that would not recite an equivalent message?

Looks like some modern football clubs to me. Just like any other.

If your brand can be anything then it is nothing.

I guess we can rule out tradition then.

People find it difficult because it is painful to accept that Rangers is a modern football club like any other.

Modern life is rubbish.

Jesus Christ.

Funny, I thought you would come back about the hard work bit.

That stuff is all long gone. I seem to remember some fellow saying that the team that drinks together wins together. Maybe it disappeared some time before then.

Have you been in a coma since 2012?

Why is it important to be able to speak to them? Was the Easdale board removed as a result of some persuasive chat?
