  1. That's the Name of his blog so who am I to argue what he calls it
  2. That's what it sounds like to me
  3. Take from this what you will https://themanthebheastscanttame.wordpress.com/2016/05/17/rangers-tax-case-uncovered-the-bheast-of-parliament/
  4. KM on JB And Miller hopes an agreement can be reached to bring him back north of the border to play his part in Rangers’ bid for the Premiership title next term. "We were at a golf day and it was just a coincidence that he was there as well," he told Sky Sports. "It was a great day for it and we had a good chat on the way around. "It's no secret that the club are trying to persuade him to come to the club and hopefully we've done enough. "The manager has never talked down the size of the job here and the size of the club so it would be a big thing if we could bring a player of that quality to this football club. "He's at the stage of his career where he has the potential to play Premier League football and if we can get that signing over the line, it would be a massive coup for the club. "He seemed genuinely interested and keen to know what the club was about. He knows the size of Rangers but he seemed interested in the subtle things about the club too."
  5. Rossiter was up on the Sat and didn't sign til the following Fri does that mean he doesn't want to be here either.
  6. Obv recorded on Fri as talks about Hivs getting extra games if they get through
  7. RANGERS hope to lure controversial star Joey Barton to Ibrox on a three-year deal. The 33-year-old was locked in talks last night after Mark Warburton identified him as the man he wants to spearhead Gers’ tilt at the Premiership. Barton was shown around Murray Park yesterday by Warburton , No.2 Davie Weir, chief scout Frank McParland and managing director Stewart Robertson. The fiery midfielder was also given a tour of Ibrox as the club attempt to secure his services. Barton is out of contract after helping to lead Burnley to the Championship title and a crack at the Premier League. The Clarets have offered him a new one-year contract – but MailSport understands Barton is tempted by Gers’ offer of a longer deal. The Scouser’s close relationship with McParland – who helped get him to Burnley during his time at Turf Moor – could be key to Warburton pulling off a stunning move. Barton would become the Ibrox gaffer’s fourth signing ahead of the new campaign after tying up Accrington pair Josh Windass and Matt Crooks and Liverpool starlet Jordan Rossiter. Yesterday, Warburton admitted he was on the verge of adding experience and strength to his engine room – with Barton his priority target. He said: “I’m looking for an experienced midfielder, someone who will add maturity and physicality. “There aren’t many out there but we’re getting closer and fingers crossed we can nail one down soon. “We’re also close on a couple of more. The work is being done now so hopefully we’ll have them in place within the next 10-12 days. “I want as many new signings in place by the time we come back on June 18.” Barton has enjoyed a colourful career at Manchester City, Newcastle, QPR and Marseille, with incidents on and off the field landing him in trouble. He signed a one-year deal at Burnley last summer and was an integral part of Sean Dyche’s title-winning side. Barton was named in the Championship Team of the Year and Dyche had hoped to keep him. But the offer of more security at Gers, as well as teaming up with close pal McParland, makes a move to Ibrox appealing. That’s despite Barton claiming a year ago that he’d like to play for Celtic. When asked on Twitter if he’d consider a move to Parkhead, he replied: “Would love to one day. Maybe when the Old Firm is back it would appeal more. Always wanted to attend/play in one.”
  8. Really hoped he would make it, so now it's a toss up between Shiels and Zelalem that starts next week.
  9. The Burnley manager is one of MW mates so he'll know exactly how JB has been this season and he's obv liked what he's heard. So I trust the managers decision on this.
  10. Ridiculous .That’s the only word Josh Windass could find to describe his Old Firm initiation. He’d heard stories about the Glasgow derby’s atmosphere. He thought he knew what to expect. But when Windass stepped foot inside Hampden for Rangers’ clash with Celtic in the Scottish Cup he was blown away. His new club’s penalty shoot-out victory made it a day to remember for the Accrington Stanley frontman, who arrives at Ibrox this summer. But incredibly, the moment he realised just how big a club he’d joined was when Celtic scored. Windass was in the Rangers end for the semi-final clash and could feel the passion from the supporters. He discovered that it meant so much to them it was is if they would rather DIE if their team lost. The whole experience gave Windass the perfect insight into what he’s letting himself in for next season. Along with Accrington’s Matt Crooks, he’ll join Mark Warburton’s squad in June for a crack at the Scottish Premiership. He has been excited about moving to Glasgow since signing a pre-contract back in January. But his day out at Hampden on April 17, when Gers triumphed to set up a Scottish Cup Final date with Hibs, convinced him he was right to knock back English Championship sides to sign for the Ibrox club instead. In his first interview since signing, “When I was younger I was told about all the big derbies – Manchester, Liverpool, Newcastle v Sunderland and Rangers v Celtic. “So I’d heard about how good the Old Firm game was. But once I got to Hampden, the atmosphere surpassed all my expectations. “I’ve never seen anything like it in my life. It was ridiculous. “No disrespect to Accrington but we don’t have that many fans. You don’t really see how much it means to them. “But you feel it up in Glasgow. “I was in among the Rangers fans and it was incredible watching their reactions during the game. “It was literally like if they lost the game they were going to die. “I was saying to them when Celtic scored: ‘Calm down lads, it’s just a goal.’ “It was crazy but going there was a great insight into what the club are all about. “As soon as I got to the ground that day I realised that I’d joined a huge club. I got into Hampden about five seconds before kick-off so the crowd were going off their heads. “I just thought: ‘Oh my God, this is unbelievable.’ “And I’ve heard it’s even better when the game is at Ibrox or Parkhead. “When I signed in January I was buzzing but I didn’t really think too much about Rangers because I had six months left to play for Accrington Stanley. “I had just got injured so the move wasn’t really on my mind. “Now that the move is getting closer – and having been to the Old Firm game – I can’t wait to join because they are clearly a massive club. But I’m still focused on helping Accrington win promotion to League One.” Windass couldn’t help them seal an automatic slot yesterday as they were held to a 0-0 draw with Stevenage and now face the play-offs. He accepts that he’s stepping up a level by moving to Rangers but the 22-year-old says no one should doubt either his or Crooks’ credentials. He cited Gary Hooper’s switch from Scunthorpe to Celtic a few years ago as a perfect example of what he could achieve at Gers. Windass said: “Look at the way myself and Matty have performed this season and where Accrington are in the league. “Celtic signed Hooper a few years ago from Scunthorpe United and he went on to score a load of goals in Scotland and in the Champions League. I don’t think it matters where you buy a player from as long as he’s a good player. Different players take different routes in their career. “So whether you sign someone from Barcelona or Accrington Stanley, if they’re the same standard it shouldn’t matter. “And that’s possible because they might reach a level at a different stage of their career. So I don’t understand people who would question Rangers signing players from Accrington. “Europe was probably the main reason why I joined the club. People will say you can’t go from playing at Accrington to the Europa or Champions League. “But I fully believe – and I can speak for Matt as well – that we can play at a far higher level than we’re at just now. “We’ve shown that with our performances this season. I’ve heard the European nights at Ibrox are incredible and I want to sample that. “I was at Old Trafford eight years ago when Rangers played Manchester United in the Champions League and the away fans were unreal that night.” Windass has rattled in 16 goals for Stanley this season despite not being an out-and-out striker. He’s been pushed further forward by Stanley gaffer John Coleman and hasn’t looked back since. Rangers faced stiff competition for his signature – Arsenal were reportedly keen on him in November – but Windass insists he couldn’t turn down Warburton. Especially as dad and former Aberdeen star Dean was always pointing him in the direction of Ibrox. He said: “It’s weird because at Accrington under our old boss James Beattie I was playing in central midfield. I felt I was doing well but not at my full potential. “I wasn’t going forward at all. But the new manager has pushed me on and I’ve been playing off the front. “I wasn’t getting goals from midfield but since switching I haven’t stopped scoring. “I prefer playing up there because I get more chances and I can use my pace more. “I’m a totally different player to my dad. He wasn’t really athletic but I’d like to think I am. I’ve got physique and I’m quick. “Clubs from the Championship wanted me as well as Rangers. But I spoke to my old man and my agent at the time. Paul Gascoigne was my dad’s hero so he wanted me to join Rangers anyway. “In some people’s opinion the Scottish Premiership might not be as good as the Championship down here. “But we all agreed you just couldn’t turn down a club the size of Rangers.”
  11. It looks like loafs of different opinions on him the comments section of the Liverpool echo article had pool fans who've watched him say he hasn't improved any in last 2 years
  12. He's been voted Whitecaps best player for April with 66% 2nd had 24%. So getting game time in a new position for him means we get the benefit then why not have him back here as cover.
  13. Jinxed it Hivs up 2 nil already
  14. My mate found this guys betting strategy on the fitty. How it works is this he waits til between 30th and 35th min. If game 0-0 he puts bet on under 2.5 goals if home team is winning 1 -0 he puts bet on under 3.5 goals if home team winning 2-0 he puts bet on under 4.5 goals etc. If by the 60th min there are no more goals he lets the bet run, if there is a goal between the time he puts bet on and the 60th min he waits until he gets or almost gets his original bet back as a cash out this only works if bet is a double or treble, if you do a single bet and goal is scored then you have to wait for an eternity to get your bet back as a cash out. If bet wins he then puts next bet on at whatever his previous bet wins ie £100 bet wins £200 2nd bet then is £200. I've attached his winnings from last weekend he started with £700 and fin with alot more. he says he doesn't bet on womans footy youth footy Israel spanish or italian.
  15. Better watching a twitch stream that way your seeing the hands live rather than them just showing the best ones. I learned how to play in my local pub in the redtooth poker league theres also couple of other pub poker leagues, redtooth is a fiver a game so cheap way to learn. Big blind and small blind are forced bets it's to save people just sitting waiting for aces all day. Checking and raising you will learn what to do with your style of play some people will check when they have a drawing hand others will bet big trying to get others to fold incase you don't hit your draw. 2 best pieces of advice I was given was if pots big 1 pair is never good enough 99% of the time and if you get check raised opponent has a very good hand ie 3 of a kind usually
  16. Considering we hardly cross the ball that's probably a good goals to crosses ratio and if that is the case then why don't we do it more when we are struggling to break teams down. Tav has also rattled the bar with 2 headers and probably others have as well.
  17. Thats now Dundee Hivs added to the list of clubs who have gone down or are still down. Dunfermline, Hivs, Herts, St Midden and hopefully Killie that would be 6 out of the 11 get a taste of their own medicine the rest we can smash them on the park next season
  18. Thought it was Mike from breaking bad for a min And Dundee hivs karma is indeed a bitch
  19. Pity he got the "words" wrong
  20. Good thing for us they finished 3rd in league meaning they have potentially 7 games in 21 days, that's a hard slog at the end of the season as we found to our cost last season and when we reached the uefa cup final
