  1. Italian icon Salvatore Schillaci, the top scorer at the 1990 World Cup, has died aged 59. The death of the 1990 World Cup golden boot winner was confirmed on Tuesday morning, just over two years after he was diagnosed with colon cancer.
  2. The idea was to play competitive games against the top youth sides in the world. Other B team focused clubs do similar. I felt like we were doing that but it seems to have dried up. I do think pulling the B team was a little short-sighted. The level was poor, but playing regular games against men was the main objective.
  3. I would pay them to tap into their recruitment strategy. I wouldn't want them 'investing' in us, though.
  4. Is that what you wanted King to do? Turn us into Brighton & Hove Albion B?
  5. We'll need to agree to disagree. I think Bennett was on the right track. It seems to me that the board are now looking for outside talent - reading between the lines of King's comments. I could be wrong.
  6. That's not a ringing endorsement. You just said they were cutting costs and now they're overspending? The overspending started with King. I just don't see King as a change. I think it's more of the same. I can only hope the board appoint an outside CEO and Chairman - something that King is against for some reason (quoted in The Herald).
  7. And you think he can do that? I mean, we're making cuts because of King's policy of over-spending.
  8. In The Herald, King is quoted as saying he has 'two major objectives - one to reintroduce the operational policies that have gone missing and to find new investment.' What's 'reintroduce the operational policies'? We know the latter is 'somebody buy my shares!'
  9. We'll need to agree to disagree on NEH. I go back to what I posted above: "I think it just requires us to utilise our capital better, rather than relying on more and more investment." We must become self-sustaining. We shouldn't be going cap in hand to the next Tom, Dick or Harry. I would vote for change, too. I don't think King is that change.
  10. I actually think NEH is an example of the board spending wisely, tbh - outwith the issue @Bluedell has brought up, re selling assets. From what I've read, King's main goal would be to find new investment. That's not utilising what we've got more wisely, that's just bringing in more short-term money - which, I suspect, is largely self-serving.
  11. I think it just requires us to utilise our capital better, rather than relying on more and more investment.
  12. Propper is an aggressive CB; he likes to jump in. I think he fits a high line - just don't miss.
  13. I can't believe how easily we've fallen back into wanting this. It's completely unsustainable.
  14. I have thought for a while that Clement's style of play requires mobile players. Until we get more of those types we'll continue to look a tad clunky. Bajrami didn't do much - only his first game, of course - but looks like a more mobile player, too.
  15. I've got whiplash from the opinions on Jefte. He was labelled 'not good enough' after 5 minutes and now he's a 'reliable left back' that 'looks like has been playing for us for years'. It's pleasing, but good god our opinions are reactive.
  16. What are your thoughts, folks?
  17. Easy write up. Correct Result (1 pt): Everyone who entered. Correct Number of Rangers Goals (1pt): - FGS (2 pts): Onevision and MacK. Correct Score (3 pts): - Latest Standings:
  18. Why is Raskin booked and not the muppet that pushed him?
  19. Hamza's just rag-dolled two players. He's half the size of Dessers.
