  1. I went along to the JJB Sports shop on Lothian Road to buy the new Rangers home top.

    I usually get at least one top a season, but i've never had any names or anything printed on the back.

    This time though I fancied getting something on it, to make it a bit more personal.

    Many couples have silly names for each other, but they can mean a lot too each other. Well, my girlfriends name for me is Scary Bear. She didn't even know about any Rangers connection!

    Anyway, I thought this would be perfect. Never fancied having my own name on it, or a players name. But this would have rangers connections, and my girlfriend would love it.

    So I asked the guy behind the counter, SCARY BEAR as the name and I went for 84 as the number, the year I was born. He wasn't sure about it, he said he would have to as his manager if it was ok! I couldn't believe it, but was sure they would still do it. After a while the guy came back and told me they wouldn't do it. Only surnames were allowed, otherwise they might get into trouble!

    Is it just me or is this just mad? The top is £45, I should be allowed to put whatever I want on it.

    Who is that going to offend?

  2. Why are we all panicking. The transfer window is not closed yet. Lots of the big european teams have yet to make signings of any note. It's not as if the green troop have been splashing the cash either.

    Surely this poll would be more appropriate once the window is closed.

    So for now I won't vote for either.

  3. It's already too late to have somebody new in midfield for the Kaunus game. I agree that we will probably wait until champions league qualification before spending much money on a quality midfielder. If that is the plan the it is a very dangerous one.

  4. I do not expect Lovenkrands to return at all. I think it was just him responding to questions from the scottish media as opposed to a likely development.

    As for burkey, I really liked him when he broke through. I remember him breaking into the top team, it was so exciting when he came on. A player with some skill, always looking to take his man own. He wasn't the finished article though. He doesn't seem to have improved since then. I really thought he could have been a great player for us. :(

  5. I agree with most other people. The stadium could have a few modifications, but not a whole new build. I would also love to see the proposed redevelopment of the surrounding area. Bars, hotels, flats, casino and so forth. This would improve the area and our profits. SDM is no business novice and i'm surprised he has not made the most of the potential.

  6. A shop in Glasgow wouldn't take a five pound bank of ireland note I had one time. I tried explaining that it was sterling and the same currency, but they wouldn't take it. I run a bar in edinburgh and we accept all sterling, doesn't matter if it is bank of scotland, clydesdale, bank of ireland, bank of england, whatever.

    I actually caught a debate about this on tv about 3 or 4 months ago. A debate at parliament. Basically they concluded that scottish notes should be accepted anywhere in the uk.
