  1. anyone seen the pictures of trump course at aberdeen. looks amazing. starts at 5700 yards going to 7450 for championship golf. 150 quid a round. can't wait for summer tees, just a month to go. could be worse, we still get normal greens unless frosty.
  2. epl teams get around 40 million upwards for the tv deals, we get around s.f.a
  3. AJ, bain and Lloyds are just as culpable of the financial malpractices as murray and whyte. everyone goes on about cuts and been strangled by muir and the bank but truth was they cuts weren't hard enough, still relying too much on euro money to make up our shortfall. All it was going to take was 1 bad season without european football to force this issue. Dramatic cuts should have been made years ago after kuanas but what did we do we went on a spending spree getting more debt. That was the time to restructure the club not now, breaking even each year and keeping euro money for the tax case. we wouldn't have had the success we did in the last 3 years and not the same euro money as we had but still a bit stored. You do remember we had at least 7 central midfielders just after kaunas in mendes, ferguson, mculloch, davis, edu, adam, thomson, ridiculous. Then stupid signings like beattie. keeping fringe players on who had no chance of a game. Every bit all adds up and then bain taking a wage way over 10% of club turnover. negligence and weak willed all of them. no long term strategy of the club finance or the tax case at all.
  4. when it first opened i remember quotes to be anually 2 million a year to run murray park. would imagine slightly more given its been open 10 years plus.
  5. not appropriate. we got enough shit going on without the fans adding to it. do we really want rangers reputation even more dragged through the media as it is.
  6. i do think whittaker makes templeton look better than he actually is.
  7. to be honest we have been pretty crap for the last few seasons, apart from a few games here and there, celtic being the best this season. Look at the spl and what going on in other leagues. It's like watching a different sport at times. look at basel this year agaisnt man utd and compare what we were like agaisnt them. Im not on about the results just the way they played over the two legs. The likes of malmo and maribor were too good for us. Hearts were mugged 5-0 on their own patch by tottenham who played at about 60% and rest have done fuck all for years. The standard of scottish football gets worse every year and we just getting more negative in our approach to the game. The spl and our team have no pace, tempo, basic abilty to pass and move, our reading of the game is atrocious, first touch jezzo, i can go on forever. too many people burying their heads in the sand. We are the best of a pathetic bunch nothing more, more and more kids are supporting the big english teams now, our support will dwindle in future years if we don't get our act together and provide better entertainment. its supposed to be the beautiful game, that a dying trait of the scottish game. i actually get bored watching us play shamefully. Most of my workmates are the same way about their teams too, aberdeen, celtic, dundee utd fans. The spl is dying on its knees and the people who have run it over the years have dragged us too, even lead the death too, even to the point where dire is an acceptable level of play. put it this way a fat lazy fucker(boyd) was the best goal scorer and a slow 41 year old(weir) who in his prime was decent at best defender with no distribution skills were amongst the top performers in our league just shows up how bad some spl players are.
  8. one of the best fights i have seen in the octagon. henderson's right hand is a beast of a weapon and what recovery skills fom both men. would love a rematch but i wouldn't blame them for not wating one straight away.
  9. ch 456 on sky box nation. it's free until january. Groves is fighting paul smith on the same card.
  10. i'm addicted now, just want to be out on the course all the time now and it's only been a few weeks, dropped 9 strokes off by best score today chuffed to say the least. I'm at montrose and only playing the wee broomfield course 4500 yards long plus it's flat and fairly forgiving but next year will get the season ticket for the medal course which is only 110 quid more for the season with the broomy included aswell.
  11. totally agree with op. 1 win in over 20 games in europe is shocking, worse than Derby's premierships season. Yes we have put in the odd great back to the wall performance, but we have failed miserably agaisnt teams that we should be well capable of beating like kanuas, maribor, unriea, malmo. We seem too concentrate far too much emphasis on stopping the opposition playing than applying pressure on them, not just in europe but a lot of the spl games as well.
  12. if mcmillan does not get his chance now at 23 when will he. whitaker and broadfoot both have had many chances and both in my eyes failed miserably, not being negative but one is a carthorse and the other is a deer in the headlights when someone's actually running at him. i would like to see jordan get a run in team, liked him when watching the old rangers tv before setanta went bust. i don't see the point of jordan being at the club though if he can't get a fair chance. He is not a youngster anymore, he should have been established 3 years ago or let go. I just don't get why rangers do this, give players contracts when really know they will play no more than 3-4 games over 3-4 seasons. Little and kerkar also come into this category.
  13. much as i like hardy, very one dimensional and too reliant on that left hook. nice way for lytle to finish his career on. Some decent fights there and henderson tore miller a new one.
  14. just took golf up not that long ago only to be told by my mates who regulary play that i have a cack handed grip and i should change to convential grip instantly. it feels alien to me though, just not in the grip but i feel it restrictive in my left shoulder and chest area. Is it really that bad to play left handed with right handed clubs
  15. my main problem with whittaker is how he struggles when he is defending when the oppo are running at him, he bloody terrified when it happens. He always makes the wrong decision in that situation, plus he lets too many crosses in to the box. Got a decent strike on him though, and is one of our better players with the ball on either foot.
  16. really, when any of them play, i just don't have any confidence in them to perform to a high standard. Wasted wages all of them for me.
  17. so the get to fuck list is up to 4 mculloch, edu, whittaker and broadfoot.
  18. They were plenty of threads about the performances of whittaker being bad since he has signed before that moment of pure selfishness and moronic stupidity on wednesday.
  19. that's why i said if, cause no one really knows. I think it is bad enough that he was given a 5 year contract in the first place, the boy just can't defend, at times is a real liabiality. Of the last 3 seasons i would say he is by far the weakest of our back 4. I just can't fathom why our management would give such a long term contract to a player who is so inconsistent, it's not like he earned it like mcgregor who is performing heroics on a weekly basis. to me, it just seems rangers as a club keep making the same mistakes over and over again.
  20. don't know what is going on at our club, just never seems to be managed properly, undervaluing some players then overvaluing others who are just plain shit, whittaker prime case. If he is on 22k a week then something is seriously wrong in the heads of the people that run the club.
  21. just need to learn to overtake then. all pace and no race craft great driving from the top 3 this weekend, with hamilton showing in a competiive car that he's hell to beat. nice drives from others though, buemi, kobashyi
  22. with all the figures banded about for those two, ridiculous by any standards, but i just can't get my head around modric being anywhere near the same ball park figure as fabegras. It would be absolute scandelous for chelsea to pay more for modric than barca for fabegras. modric is a decent player but way over rated, and no where near fabregas's class and the stats prove it.
  23. just a shame about wiggins, think he had a really good chance this year especially since his win over evans just before the tour de france in the dauphne.
  24. can't believe the amount of crashes this year so far, broken collar bones, shoulder blades, wrists. can't be arsed uploading the video but tv car hitting the rider the day only to smack into another rider. One went down and the other went flying into barb wire, lucky he is still breathing. got away with thirty stitches. Mental, far more dangerous than ufc, boxing, rugby and formula 1 combined.
  25. i'm the same, terrible fight. haye head movement was better than usual but his offence sucked and that falling over got on my nerves after a while. Klitchko was bad too, fought at a faster rate than usual but just same old tactics. Klitchko gets so on my nerves, he goes on about how everyone is just cautious after a few rounds. haye spent half the fight goading him in with his hands down yet he couldn't do shit. tyson, holyfield, lewis all kick the living crap out of those two. Not all bad epic ufc though, best one for ages
