der Berliner 3,813 Posted July 5, 2014 Share Posted July 5, 2014 Mate he's from same place as me - Castlemilk. And he's now on £70k a week, he IS a superstar now like it or not. Another general remark and not aimed at you JTP: The place I work at occasionally has a seperate and "very special" entry for its "special" guests. Now, this is owned by a American family (AEG) who owns dozen such places all over the world, including the O2 World in London. They know that people who are "rich" or have money (for a once-in-a-lifetime-ticket) are not necessarily VIPs. Hence, they called that entrance not - as usual - "VIP entrance", but "Premium Entrance". You pay premium prices there, get special seats or even lounges, but it does not necessarily make you a VIP (though it does function as a VIP entrance too). So there#s a clear distinction in their minds about having money, being generally rich, a VIP, a star, or a superstar. I bemoaned the usage of megalomanic and polarizing words a wee while ago. These days, star and superstar are utilized very liberately. In this case, if McCarthy "is a superstar", where do you put Ronaldo or Neymar? Never mind those below them like Rooney an what, 120k a week? Rhethorical questions, of course. Heck, I'm on course for diverting the thread a little again 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Zappa 0 Posted July 6, 2014 Author Share Posted July 6, 2014 Quick bump for the transfer thread to say that on Thursday Steve Simonsen answered a question from a Rangers fan on twitter who was asking him what the script is and Simmo said he's in limbo, which is what I had suspected. In other words... we haven't offered him a new contract, but neither have we told him that his services will no longer by required. Not a very fair way to treat a player. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Those reports are old news as one is 4 weeks old and the other is 3 weeks old. Meanwhile he's saying directly to a Rangers fan 3 days ago that he's out of contract with us, but still in limbo. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You're just looking for another, any excuse to have a go at the club. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
