cooponthewing 1,139 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) No idea what people pay the fee? Legalised thuggery sending the boys round. Trying to force you to pay for things you don’t want? Aye that will be right! Edited November 30, 2018 by cooponthewing 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pete 2,499 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 They used to send vans round with a huge scanner on it. Somebody on here said it was a scam and just a frightening tactic they didn't actually do anything. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
26th of foot 6,082 Posted November 30, 2018 Author Share Posted November 30, 2018 Winter vomiting outbreak at PQ. The good spew was the first half of last night's broadcast, the A Team of a mixture of Sellik and Aberdeen supporters provided the usual propaganda. Thus, Big Dick, Wullie Miller, Liam McLeod, Tom English, Martin Dowden, and Pat Bonner all took a slice of the PQ economic pie. Sellik won their first ever away Europa Cup group match, and no praise was high enough. Particularly, since they all invested significantly prematch, in a Red Bull carve up. Tom, Pat, and Martin were pumping that one hard. Beeb Scotland have learned to manage symptoms from previous outbreaks. The Rangers team was given at half time in Norway. Thommo was back on the naughty step, keeping an eye on events at Ibrox. On two separate occasions, Liam compared Sellik's test with our opponents. Sellik are playing Champions League calibre, while Villarreal are sixteenth in La Liga, had left two star players back in Spain, and have only won three games all season. Liam omitted the £70 million they spent close season. During commentary, Liam waxed on about Bendtner's run-ins with Danish law, four times we were told of his recent conviction for beating up a taxi driver. Good, we look forward to Sunday's BetFred cup final, when Liam will give full discourse on Leigh Griffiths and pay particular attention to Leigh's recent, 'illness'? Careful now, Liam! The bad spew was our game, Partick Thistle's Kris Doolan came into the studio and ...................wtf? Big Dick, Tom English, Kris Doolan, and Thommo quietly vomited whilst picking up the dosh. They don't want to be there, don't want to talk about us, but they'll take the dosh. They rallied at half-time, Candeias received a red card and there were numerous attempts to explain it, all Daniel's fault. Thommo did say, "that was harsh". Big Dick and Tom paralleled the incident with Daniel's recent double yellows at St Mirren. Wullie Miller concluded, "he has a history". Kris Doolan is a quick learner, "probably deserved". Big Dick was salivating at the prospect of the second half, then reverted to projectile vomiting on the 75th minute. A move down our right saw the ball whipped across, and Middleton netted. Big Dick spluttered, "surely offside, we'll need to see". Clearly viewing BT's coverage and not crediting it, the replay shows Middleton a yard off, Big Dick says, "not close", Thommo begins, "a good move from Rangers, well worked"; Big Dick screams, "it's not even close"! Oh, the hate. Game ends, seven minutes left of the show, and we receive a reprise of Sellik's wonderful, ground setting victory amidst the fjords. A Martin Dowden interview with Brendan is broadcast and Big Dick ends with, "well, another good night for Scottish clubs in Europe"? Tom had nothing to add. Other than picking up the dosh, which we are part contributing to, why do they bother? 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I suspect, 26th, that they do it to upset you, and to read your observations, here, the following am. Then, I am utilising the nut to crush their steam hammer. A couple of the guys behind Gersnet will know what I am referring to here. It was over a dozen years ago, we were attending the weekly RST Board meeting. Colin Glass and I had been at another afternoon meeting with Martin Bain in Argyll House and were reporting to the rest of the Board. After relating the depressing events, I was of the opinion we should find a way to keep Bain mindful of the supporters' concerns reference the club's position. One of the Board asked as to the placement of Bain's office? Telling him it overlooked the car park at the back of the Govan Stand, our young Thruster fae Ershur said, 'his office overlooks those billboards, I'll check availability and rates, get back to you next week'. We hired the centre billboard and put up an invitation to join the Trust and protect Rangers' supporters' interests. Every day, the former catalogue model sat at his desk and was reminded of our concerns, every time he turned his head. A later meeting with Murray revealed Martin hated that particular month at his desk. Good! I suppose it's the Three Billboards outside Ebbing thing that has brought it back to mind. What are the thoughts on Rangers supporters crowd funding the hiring of a billboard in view of PQ, and posting a message that will continually remind them of deliberately failing to provide license fee paying Rangers supporters with the same service provided to other fans of other clubs? 6 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

This is a great idea. I wonder if the BBC would then report on the complaint. Either way, providing the tone and message is clear and precise, this is something that would get my vote, and cash. I wonder if it's something Club 1872 would consider coordinating. ?? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JohnMc 2,754 Posted November 30, 2018 Share Posted November 30, 2018 (edited) Great idea, but don't put it outside Pacific Quay, put it outside Broadcasting House in London or Sport's HQ in Manchester.
