I thought that this was the best opportunity for Patterson to play.

This could well end up being Steve Clarke's greatest achievement.

That's interesting. I'm only thinking about it from the perspective of an individual though. If I donate to Club 1872 and stop donating then, in future, someone else will control the shareholding that I paid for. That is to say that it will be controlled by whoever controls Club 1872. A combination of the membership and the board. I would lose control because I had not remained an active participant.

This will be obvious to many but I'll add this for your benefit. In the absence of leadership you do it yourself. Stop making excuses and take responsibility.

I don't need this.

It's a well worn topic but I might as well throw in my 2 pence worth again. Club 1872 is undeniably better than zero fan ownership. It is better for Club 1872 to buy Dave King's shares rather than risk the wrong people getting hold of them. The problem is that if you donate to Club 1872 you need to take an ongoing responsibility for it. You never own the shareholding but someone does. That is to say you really need to remain a member and be active. If you don't then who knows who will end up controlling Club 1872. Actual fan ownership of shares is undeniably better than donating to Club 1872. When you own shares you don't need to give any thought to any of the bickering that surrounds the Club 1872 board. You'll never need to worry about who might one day control the share holding that you paid for. If you do this then you end up with a different problem. You'll be faced with dilution of your holding one day. That's an easier problem to deal with.

In reality you deserve what you get. Particularly so in this case.

This is great news. I don't care about the match. I just know that this will end all discussion about Gerrard managing Liverpool one day. HAHAHA.

Not too keen on this. I think we should be moving him on from the playing squad. He might well be a good coach though. I have no insight into that. I'm not a fan of players moving in to coach former teammates in general. I have much more confidence that he will benefit the youth players.

Restricted view in the club deck?

Running out of time surely.

We should get some of that money by pushing up prices. Particularly for hospitality.

Any rumours about James McArthur this year? Looks like he is out of contract. Perhaps his window of opportunity has ended.

This guy is clearly not the sharpest tool in the shed. He's calling people cockroaches after sobbing about dehumanization only a couple of days ago.

""When Rangers clinched their first league title in a decade, a couple of months ago, I wrote in this newspaper’s daily sister title about the shame I felt as a fan; how disappointed I was that the club had failed to do what it could to prevent fans gathering outside Ibrox to mark the triumph." Andy, if you read this then please take some time to reflect on your life. You can earn your living in any number of different ways. You don't need to debase your existence by grovelling like this.

Quite. Nobody will challenge Dick on this so he will continue to write it.

Politicians can legislate whereas football clubs can not. I'm honestly not sure what evidence there is that politicians can improve schools.

"extensive enquiries"

Politicians don't have the power to change these things. I don't know why so many are gripped by this silly fairy story. It's a matter for the individuals involved and, to a lesser extent, those close to them.

I don't like it much either but anything inside the stadium damages the club. It also endangers my chances of attending European matches. I can't accept that. Also the idea that you can reason with someone about where, or when, to have a fight is very silly indeed.

It would be very helpful if season ticket holders would all attend any European matches.

I can't believe that you are limiting yourself to the tiny audience here on Gersnet. Such an important message surely deserves a wider audience. Why not drop the pseudonym and start a youtube channel?

Any response must be based on reality. Happy to help in any way I can.

One wonders if @Charloch ignores it too.
