  1. Im going to be contraversial and add Thomson and Davis to the selling pot. Thommo is out of contract next summer I believe and if we can get £3M for him I would take it. Davis still has stock in the EPL and we would get a decent fee for him maybe another £5M at least. So in this summer we would have got rid of most of the big earners, got decent fees in and could buy Ally a young squad to develop without fear of having to sell every year to make up the losses.
  2. Don`t remember him building the Stadium Brother try giving the acalade to David Holmes OK Ill bite, he had nothing to do with those signings as well.
  3. Anyone else think this is just a case of SDM looking at the supposed £3M he is going to make out of the Ellis deal and thinking no thanks? If this means continuing with the status quo for the forseeable future then I cannot see how we can look to be a major player in the game. With no chance of CL money for the SPL winners unless they get past the qualifiers we have no guarenteed big incomes and so I cannot see how our debt is going to be serviced. If its dropping by a mere £3.5M supposidly WITH CL participation and serious downsizing, Im quite a concerned Bear at the moment.
  4. Check out forums to see if its a common fault. Someone may have the fix for it. Failing that contact Sony themselves. If it is only a year old they may replace it for you.
  5. We did a straight swap for Van Vossen if I remember right. And theres another story...
  6. This reminds me of that scene in Dumb and Dumber when Lloyd 'realises' we have finally landed on the moon...
  7. Englands World Cup hopes look to be in tatters as a flu bug sweeps through the squad. The team doctor said Robert Green is fine though as "He couldnt catch fuck all!"
  8. FFS are we going to have these threads after every single bloody game?
  9. Fair one, but he more or less said if Walter stays then he will. Walter is staying, yet Boyd now says he is off. If he said from the start that he was going then he would have gained a lot more respect and all this fannying around now is losing him a lot of fans. Im not that bothered if he stays or goes but I can see how many have been rubbed up the wrong way over this.
  10. Dont tell me, The Daily Mail got another leaked memo with all the details on.
  11. I've a lot of sympathy for wanting Ibrox to be bigger than Porkheid but if you look at annual average attendances since records began then 50k - 60k is enough. Obviously we could get 80k+ for certain games but these would be few and far between. i know what your saying mate, but we are record breakers should we not have the biggest ground in Scotland? i think we should not you sifter, but i think the lack of ambition from some fans is quite sad, we are supposed to be this huge club, known world wide, yet we have a ground which is smaller than Hampdump(im sure) and The Glitterdome, i dont think thats good enough No point in having the biggest ground if its only going to be 2/3rds full apart from 6 games a year. Would be a huge waste of money IMO. Lets get Ibrox full week in week out before contemplating extending it.
  12. Dont agree, 51000 is fine and besides, stadiums that have loads of empty seats look pathetic. (See San Giro)
  13. Please tell me that's tongue in cheek. Ach goals are overrated, they're not that important © Tommy Burns. Was that not Ambre Solaire? Disgusting.
  14. So all will become clear in about 48 hours...
  15. http://cgi.ebay.co.uk/ws/eBayISAPI.dll?ViewItem&Item=350361237916&Category=68340&_trkparms=algo%3DLVI%26its%3DI%26otn%3D1
  16. Cant be that good if thats his options. Besides, GK is the last position we need to fill at the moment.
  17. From the evidence of his 8 wins out of 8, I fail to see why the OP has come up with this post. Sure, league was over but the games were there to be won, and he beat us at the first time of asking. Also we have just lost the first 4 players of a very thin squad.
  18. Ferguson captaining Celtic.....Boyd supporting the Toon......Is it just me or are the press giving the kids summer jobs which might be a bit above them?
  19. You really think we'd pay someone £1.5m in wages a season, on top of a signing on fee, and bonuses... not a fcuking chance! The day's of us paying big wages, and transfer fees have gone! Can we compete in Europe paying players 10 - 20k a week muff? i think its possible with the right coach. something has to change, either we pay more to get better players or our coaches get their fingers out, or do we just accept humiliation in Europe every year? I think 1 or 2 on 30k a week should be sustanable for us, look at the amount of money we have freed up in the last few years and the books look on the up now too even with the debt. We cant afford really to free up much more money from wages(although i wouldnt mind losing McCullochs wage off our bill!) or no one will be left in our squad but surely there must be something there to get us a better calibre of player. Petrov or not, we need wingers, we need a goalscorer and they must be better than what we have surely? Anyone expecting us to compete in Europe is beyond deluded, as things stand. Even with Gazza and Laudrup etc, we never competed in Europe. We are so far off the mark there, even Real Madrid cannot compare to the best. Staying on top in Scotland is where we should be aiming and that is as realistic as it gets.
  20. Especially on a free. He'll get £40-£50pw from a mid-level EPL team. Is this 1960?
  21. Its all academic now anyway as Boyd has always said he will stay if Walter gets sorted...
