You must be taking the same medication as me .

Never seen the game up here in Glasgow for a week on hospital duty were there any signs of hope for the season ahead

Newcastle are a joy to watch, really showing how football should be played. I guess it's showing how lucky we were that Howe said no to Celtic. 

 

Thankfully, we'll not face this type of quality until the later stages of Europe and / or CL group stages. 

 

Sima looks the parts, Soutar our best defender, Cantwell trying a little to much.

 

 

Later stages of Europe I admire your optimism 

Just a little leg stretcher main thing is don’t get injured 

Howay the gers.

The current football elite is reaching their limits of growth and is unsustainable without massive injections of new money. For that reason and no other, the current product/market interface will have to change dramatically. When it does they would be as well calling it a different sport, for all the connection it will have with the game played at Ibrox.

Will be interesting state of affairs when the next television rights come on the market might there be some new players on the scene

We rotate this position with Celtic annually - so we had someone on this board two years ago...

Any reason why it's the two big boys then seems a bit unfair on others

Good and not before time we had some representation, someone to fight the good fight .

Makes you wonder if £500,000 is entirely appropriate.

Worth another £300000 at least poor bit of business.

Continuing the thrust of Scott7's comparison; if the Royal Artillery are nine mile snipers, then Nicolas Fairbairn was a chutney sniper.

My father was Royal artillery for many years before the war and after.

The colourful Mr Fairbairn did a lot of criminal defence, got himself elected to Parliament and was appointed Solicitor-General for Scotland. I don’t know if he did any actual prosecuting himself. Not really in his nature.

Oh yes he did prosecution work I seen him in Glasgow high court it was a joy to watch he was like an accomplished Shakespearian actor work was put on hold I attended for the full trial .

Mon the Gers.

Criminal defence lawyer changed sides and assists in the Lord Advocate’s Department. I might be hopelessly wrong - it’s happened before - but that profile is getting out of the heavy artillery battle into a job in stores.

Did Nicholas Fairbairn not do a similar move .

Another [snip] it's going to be fun..

He did walk out on us 

I wonder how long it will be before Saudi becomes part of Europe and see teams from the Saudi league in the champions leagues don’t forget money talks.

Bailey Rice sounds like something you’d get in the chinkys that aside I’ve heard good things about this lad 

Money for a player in his final year you must take it .

The toffees got their season of to a win against some French outfit yesterday
