    Yes the extra digit will be very handy. :lol: Seriously glad you are back on the mend. 

    Your industry has been through a hellish time and it probably does not help that Sturgeon seems to hate anyone enjoying themselves in any way or having a wee drink. 

    Most will survive mate and many have prospered and will continue to do so, the two hour table booking was genius as punters would drink double the normal rate and the folk in the next two hours did the same, we have been luck as we do food and we are 30% up like for like 2 years ago.

    I may even get a few days in Blackpool as a reward to myself 😂

    Hopefully you’re well and family, I heard Ken Bruce the other day playing a U2 new song called something like “We are the People” and he had a chuckle

    Sorry to hear about your health mate, not surprised about the business side unfortunately, but good to hear you are on the up again. :thumbup: 

     

     

    Health is very good now , while I was in hospital I got the two transplants done to make me fit in with the locals, it’s amazing what you can do with 6 digits on each hand😂😂

    Business is picking up although through the last year we downsized by 3 units which could have drained the others but haven’t, still 102 of the 125 staff we had so all is good the 23 decided to work outside the trade or got better offers.

    Yes it is all becoming very annoying and frustrating mate.

    Glad to see you posting posting. 👍👍

    I haven’t been anywhere just recharging  for 55 😂👍👍

    was up your way a couple of times in November but was no good getting in contact as standing or sitting outside in November didn’t appeal to me

    I think he will be liked by fans of all Scottish teams when he is having a go at us and while I never listen to sportscene now he does have a platform to hurt us and I think it would be neive to suggest anything else. 

    I also realise you and I will not agree on that either, but that is what forums are for. 

    I know 3 players who have played along side him and they absolutely hate him, also I think it was Billy Brown on Radio Scotland who told him that he was the most hated player within any dressing room that he had come across in 50 years in football

    My brother in law Andrew,  who was a good Rangers man and only 56 years old, and had been battling a rare brain condition and dementia for the last few years passed away this afternoon. His kidneys failed last weekend and we were told this last Monday that he would only last a couple of days. When he was still with us this morning my wife insisted I should go to the game, which I did with a rather heavy heart. 

    I noticed a voice message at half time form my wife saying Andrew had passed away at about 3pm, I stayed a wee while but knew I had to get back home and to be honest it is the first game I have been to that somehow I did not feel right about being there. A very strange game for me, but all being well I will be back on Thursday night knowing Andrew is no longer suffering.

    Andrew had been in a Care Home since August 2017 because he needed 24 hr care, unfortunately he never really accepted his condition and that made caring for him much more difficult, we visited twice a week and took him out when the weather was OK in his wheelchair, but the last few weeks it seemed he was getting worse and while losing a close family member is very sad and especially at his age, but we know his suffering is over and that we did everything we could for him, and that is indeed a comfort at this time. 

    The last time we saw Andrew reasonably happy with his life was when the Care Home arranged a visit to Ibrox in May 2018 on one of the tours, we were concerned he might not cope with it and we both went along just in case we had to take him back, but he seemed to love it and that is one of the memories we will keep in our minds over the next few weeks and months. 

    Rest easy Andrew, your team did you proud today. 

    Sorry to hear this mate, hope the family are all ok

    Where’s the brick wall ffs. 

    They are there to protect the club from out side and inside danger. We have a chairman costing the club millions by his stupidity but all we get is that big bad man Ashley. 

    We have the BBC doing what the BBC does. 

    One gets it both barrels rightly from 1872 the other doesn’t even warrant a mention in the statement about the retail clasterfuck, in fact they go out of their way to mislead the fans on what is actually happening. 

    So yes 1872 are a waste of oxygen and the quicker they fuck off the better. 

    I’m not disputing what your saying, my point was because they did say something they get it tight. They maybe don’t represent you or me but the do represent their members and I would imagine that they will be happy that a voice has been found.

    They can only mislead people who believe what they say those who don’t believe just carry on. 

    As for Ashley and King their Egos are the problem , richfuckers playing games at everyone’s else’s expense.

    He’s not bashing the board he’s bashing 1872 over the piss poor double standards of their statements. 

    I know what he is doing.

    The 1872 guys get slated for doing hehaw and when they do do something they get slated for doing it even though they did what many wanted them to do.

    Im not a contributor to them and have issues with some of their ways but credit to them for doing it. I would certainly trust them long before anyone at the BBC Scotland

    Since I like you, let me just say this, several knowledgeable and upright posters have made the same point in this thread, the club will be receiving zilch, indeed saint marshall has been at pains to stress the club has absolutely no involvement in this street market venture.

    And.....................SDI have the rights to sell all, as signed over to them by double thick dave along with £3 million don't prosecute me an ma wee bud paul any further...Mr Ashley....✔

    Thanks, that’s all I needed.

    And you wonder why you don't have clue what is going on ✌

    My first question was a yes or no answer but you never gave me one. I’m not reading through reams of court talk to find out, I don’t care who sells our merchandise as long as the club get what is due to them, so whoever is selling them out a hut can either do it or they can’t  and with them doing so they must be fine to do it or foolishness has taken over their brains
