You got your wish Smile

So often as fans we idolise our heroes, we afford them legendry status, sometimes on occasions it is unmeritted.
Ally McCoist's  legendary status is without a shadow of doubt, on merit. His exploits on the playing field and his goal scoring achievements for our club will probaby never be beaten nor equalled.
But its quite simply wrong to base our opinion of Ally solely on his playing career - he had a stint as manager and to exclude both this and his conduct during that term of office would be like judging a football game solely on the first half. 
It is not Ally's fault that he was not a good manager - but those who continue to present excuses referring to the conditions he worked in forget that the boards he worked under he publicly supported and furthermore that those same boards gave him player budgets which were second only to Celtic. And thats notwithstanding the fact that Ally had facilities such as Auchenhowie which should be putting our club at a distinct advantage. Hearts of course closed that gap by Robbie Neilson insisting on training 3 times a day and warning those who allowed themselves to become less than fully fit that they would be jettisoned.
Under Green & others the gravy train culture which has been at Ibrox for far too long was allowed to flourish - it is of no surprise that we ended up in the state we did relying on loans and the selling of our brightest starlets just to keep the lights on. Stockbridge lied to us at the AGM when he told us wages etc were within our budget we now know they were not. We were hemorrhaging money at an unsustainable rate.
What it needed at this time was a Rangers man with the club's interest a heart to step forward and put an end to this by leading by example. Wallace's attempt to curb the excesses was doomed to failure when only the players were asked to take a cut - and Ally of course publicly suported his players in this fiasco. What should have happened is that everyone at the club should have taken a cut comensurate with the club's current position which had a direct effect on incoming revenue. None did of course. Shame on them - every single on of them.
Ally only offered to take a cut in wages after his income was released in a most unedifyng manner in more board shehanigans.
This may come hard to some - but the accusations of greed, avarice and opportunism can be appllied to Ally McCoist as much as any of the others who availed themselves of cheap shares - though not the word "spiv" for some reason. This was perhaps the most unsavoury aspect in all of this. Fans were buying season tickets (often more than required) and shares (stretching their financial resources to the limit & perhaps beyond) at a far greater price just to ensure the club survived whilst vultures inside the club were making a quick buck for themselves courtesy of shares at a knock down price. Shame on every single one othem - Ally McCoist incuded.
Ally McCoist had a wonderful first half but he should have been substituted long before the end of the 2nd.
People have asked me in this thread & others of a similar nature if I would have taken a wage cut or not taken the legal entitlement of my contract.
The answer is simple - if I was doing a job for the club I loved I would not accept a wage which was not comensurate with my role & the club's position. Furthermore if I was not doing the job to required standard I would be far too ashamed to continue to draw a wage after I had resigned from a job I had failed to meet the expectations and requirements I was asked to fulfil. I think many of us would echo such a sentiment.
Rangers and their continuation are far more important to me than my personal bank balance.
 
 
 

Brillliant,Hats off to that man

After the last few years Hibs are the first team we've put in their place since all the shite has happened.  Next season we put the rest of them in their place.

Brillliant,Hats off to that man

Some week for Stokes, Hibs getting beat twice, tims dropping points and some IRA cunt shot to death.

It's not just Hibs I'm laughing at, it's the Scottish football media who were so desperate to see Hibs beat us to the automatic promotion place that they built them up into so much more than they ever were.
If a lot of them were to go back and read the shite they were spouting a fortnight ago they would cringe with embarrassment.

Wee Murdoch with the goal aswell haha
 

With this decision to reinstate her and with 'The National' as a sister paper. They are obviously pandering to their target audience, I will not be touching that rag ever again and wish it a fast and painful extinction.

Yep. He really seems to have gone off the deep end. I just wish he delivered that rant in video format for the comedy value, given his ludicrous appearance.
He really is a bitter, bitter, bigot.
The scum signing this homophobic, journalist-threatening cretin really undermines his, and his colleagues', position.
They've had the full set of bigots in their first team in recent times:sectarian bigots, racists, xenophobes, terrorist-glorifiers anti-Semites and now a homophobe. 
Aye, they're so inclusive. They'll sign any kind of bigot.

Don't often post unless something really,really gets my back up.
The use of provocative language here really does my head in.Phrases like "free and democratic society" are being used to plant the seed into readers minds that what has happened here is wrong and an injustice to both Spiers and the hag.
Here's a couple of sentences that i have yet to read.
In a "FREE" and "DEMOCRATIC"  society.Mr Parks has the right and the freedom to take his advertising where he likes.
In a "FREE" and "DEMOCRATIC"  society.If you publicly go against your bosses you'll probably get the bullet

Wow. 
The way this group operates is scary as fuck. The scary thing isn't them getting the sack, it's the way they can say or imply whatever they like about Rangers and it's fans, and then become anti-bigotry martyrs at the drop of a hat with a mass of people crying Charlie Hebdo! over their sacking whilst ignoring the demonising, hypocritical, double standards bile that came from them when they had their platform.
I'm worried that their ability to play the victim martyr is working. Anything they've actually done before being sacked doesn't seem to matter. It's still going to be big bad Rangers unless our Board plays a blinder. We just don't have enough people in the media willing to put up an alternative point of view and there are too many in their evil, agenda driven cabal.

By the way. Fuck not listening to RC, Radio Scotland and the likes. If anyone is confident enough to do so they should get on and tell the true story about Haggerty if there is any propaganda putting her down as a martyr. The opposite side of the story needs to be heard.

International football is fucking awful.
Genuinely there's about three decent sides. The fans of national sides like Scotland and Ireland are a riddy, jumping about in kilts lonsdale socks and fake timbies whilst the tarriers jump around in leprechaun hats.
It's time international football was scrapped or confined to summer football or some shit.
Seeing people upset that broony and the boys couldn't do it is also sore to take for many bears. Cheering on a shower of rat bastards, supported by a shower of rat bastards and ran by a shower of rat bastards is pathetic.
