  2. I'm not "looking" mate. Have you ever seen what tv on a Thursday is like ? My wife does a backshift every Thursday and I'm pottering about with the radio on in the background.
  3. 28 minutes gone Zenit winning 2 - 0.

    The Split

    I don't know how to view tweets but those figures certainly fit in with my recollection of what had been happening for years.
  5. I take it you've never worked in a shipyard in January Compo ? Y fronts, thermal long johns and wifes tights all at the same time.

    The Split

    We already had playing each other twice in an 18 team league. Nobody was interested in Rangers v bottom of the league. Nowadays they couldn't sell the match to tv. 4 games in a top 10 or 12 won't work either, simply because the rules say they have to show the odd match involving 6th against 8th and we end up with the 3 at home/away conundrum. In saying that, international football was formerly in the mix and we had short seasons. Now our national side couldn't beat the Maryhill Stanklifters so won't qualify for anything. TV want as many Rangers Celtic games as possible and really aren't caring about the rest. Given the diddies running our football here I've no doubt they'd make an erse of selling that as well.

    The Split

    The Record view that I posted on another thread was that Rangers played games away post-split but also played home matches post-split. I prefer to look over the years at how they always conspired to have us play 3 times away at the more difficult parks. Before our drop into the basement it happened every year is my memory of how it worked.
  8. We played some decent football that season. Colin Stein scoring freely. Disappointing we picked up no trophies . Gornik was a sore one to take.
  9. Maybe someone going back into the past to share memories of Rangers matches from the 60's or whatever ? Don't know about my presentation, or even whether my laptop has a mic tbh, but I certainly have some amusing stories from that era.
  10. Sensational headline from the Record -- " SPFL face post-split fixture chaos as Rangers have already played rest of top six at home twice. " CHAOS ? !! They then go on to explain the history of the league - " The SPFL are facing a post-split fixture headache if the top six remains as is. Rangers will have played all five of their rivals in the top half of the Premiership twice at Ibrox this season. But Graeme Murty’s side will be due two home 
games after the split, which could force two teams to make a third trip to Govan. The SPFL almost certainly won’t have an imbalance in the Old Firm derby meetings while Aberdeen would be outraged at the prospect of another Gers away game as they battle for second place. As it stands that would leave Hearts, Kilmarnock and Hibs facing the prospect of a third Ibrox clash with the latter two the lowest ranked based on their final position last season. Former Rangers boss Walter Smith hit out at the SPL in 2010, claiming the club had suffered a decade of unfair treatment when it came to post-split fixtures. " Then comes the "excuser" -- "On seven occasions in the first 10 years of the format Gers played a top-six club away from home three times and only once at home, although in two of those seasons it was balanced out with three home games against another side." Yeh, which home games against which sides ? Tossers.
  11. We gained 2 points advantage because the manks are concentrating on winning the UEFA cup. Despite having a multi-billion pound squad they decided to play reserves and injury recovering players. McLeish got the Scotland job through the Freemason cabal running Scottish football. Comone Gonzo. Get with the script. The manks are already on board.
  12. To be fair, all said Hamilton should not have been awarded a penalty.
  13. The shot was on target and the keeper failed to keep it from crossing the line. Same as any other shot a keeper gets a hand to - the scorer gets the credit. Windass scored imo.
  14. I don't see the problem here. Paying off leeches like Ashley and sorting out the mess left by dumplings like Warburton and Pedro were always going to affect our finances. I could see there being something worth looking into if it was King or the other shareholders who were draining cash from the club. We have improved as a football side and I'm confident the club as a whole will also do similar.
  15. Got you mate. You're correct. I picked it up wrongly. From the position of the other landmarks on the banner it can only be Ibrox imo. Weirdos.
  16. No, to the left of the banner Dell. Also it says UEFA Europa League. I can't remember them playing such a game at Ibrox.
  17. Stu, it looks to me that the top stand has a bend in it at the left of the picture. I can't think of any part of Ibrox that bends.
  18. That's not Ibrox.
  19. I'm the same as you Oleg. Stupid wife invited guests over and they'll be arriving soon. Listening to the desperate commentary on BBC radio.
  20. It really depresses me when I see fading players like Davis or Miller getting handed new contracts. They did us a turn and for that I thank them. But they have no sell on value. We'd be paying top dollar for "experience" and nothing else . Neither of them at their current age will win us a league title or make a difference in Europe. When they finally hang up their boots a space is perceived to be left. When we went to the bottom division we should have signed 30 youths aged 16 and stuck with them. One or two diamonds would have been turned up with the correct coaching.
  21. The zoomers and malcontents spreading these rumours were so desperate for them or their pals to get a blazer and a seat at the top table that, no matter what statements are made by c1872 they'll continue in their actions. I've no doubt that had some of them been successful in the elections, the rumours they spead are exactly how they themselves would have acted. They should be positively identified, confronted, and shunned by every right thinking Rangers fan.
  22. I spent nearly 6 months in hospital suffering from osteomyelitis [dermatitis of the bone] in my leg. At one point they considered/recommended removing my teeth.
  23. They will field a team of hammer-throwers and hope the referee allows them head to clog out a result. Given the current load of chancers wearing umpire shirts I wouldn't bet against it.
  24. The tramp beggar liars latest blog has the SFA's McRae meeting Duncan Fraser and Derek McInnes for a meal outside Aberdeen at the weekend.
