  1. What I shall do is when we've reached the 1k mark, I'll write down the names of all the donators, put the names in a hat at work and draw a name and post the shirt out to you if that's the best way of doing it? Ideally it'd want framed but Ill have to leave that up to the winner, I bought the shirt a few years ago and it's sat hanging in the wardrobe ever since. May as well let a bear that wants it have it. I think that's the best way unless someone has a suggestion? 

    Cheers lads.

    I dont get paid until next week (jakey loyal) but I'll fire in a contribution asap. My dads blind so although it's not the same I can empathise, all disabilities have one thing in common; they can make life a hell of a difficult.

    Don't worry mate, there's 29 days left for donations. If we do smash the target I'll be donating a large chunk of any extra to my local palliative care unit to fund things like wheelchairs or other equipment. So there's no huge rush. 

    All the best to your dad. You are correct, disability's are a bastard, but it puts in perspective all the crap that bothers you when a loved one is suffering something like that.

    I appreciate your contribution pal it'll go a long way. Many thanks. WATP

  3. Evening lads. Sorry if I'm not allowed to post it here, will remove if needed. 

    As a few of you know my mum was diagnosed with brain mets a couple of months ago. Well ever since radiotherapy she's been housebound. As we cannot afford to lose the chunk of PIP that would be deducted for a mobility car, I'm hoping to raise £1500 to buy her a used one privately. 

    Any donations massively appreciated bears, and if the funds reach £1000, I'll then do a lotto draw for a signed rangers shirt (from the first team in division 3) 

    I'll leave the post im sharing on Facebook in here. Thanks so much in advance.

     

    Hi lads. 

    Back in April my mum, a nurse of 30+ years, was diagnosed with brain cancer. Since then her Mobility has deteriorated. After a lifetime of giving to others I'm hoping we can give something back to her. 

    We want to raise £1500 to buy a cheap Wheelchair Accessible Vehicle (WAV) so that we can take mum out and about to do shopping, visit friends, go to the beach, do all the things me and you do without a care in the world. But being housebound is a horrible position to be in. With your help, we can Change that.

    Any donations are massively appreciated and when goals are reached of £500 and £1000 I'll share videos of a sponsored head shave and a back waxing. 

    Thanks in advance, and if you'd like to donate, please click the link below.

    I was all positive about him but after this last week ive got a feeling he's going to be the next Peralta.

    Tbf, I'd of took peralta last season - was nowhere near the level we need but no worse than what we had, and he wouldn't of shit out a tackle at the least.

  5. fuck me, we get embarassed once and they call for the managers head. Didn't say that when Brenda's Celtic lost to the mighty red imps, or when Man U lost to MK Dons. 

    it was an embarassment, move forward, give the manager til the end of the campaign and if he hasn't met targets (1 cup, strong second / push for first) then decide on his future. honestly a joke. We never expected to do well in this tournament, we are still playing a number of pish players (I will now include wallace in that) and the team we are building is going to be 10 fucking strangers, you need time to gel and work well together.

     

    patience is lost in some.

    I ordered a pair of trainers from Zalando a few months back and they use this horrific company - their 'safe place' was inside my fucking wheely bin :lol::lol::lol: . 

    ordered something online once, they cunts did that to me, on bin day... 

  7. I think hes going as he doesn't want to be a wage thief to the club he loves. he knows he isnt going to cut it this season at the very least, and wants to go somewhere new, an opportunity most of us would love, with sun, sea and European football. Good on him, hopefully he comes back on here and shares his stories.

    Aye deffo mate, they should be of enough quality to stop us leaking goals, just shows the depth we have compared to last season. I would give the youth any chance possible as long as it doesn't have any influence on a potential bad result, even after 60 mins, take a starting  Xi defender off for a younger player if we're cruising. 

    Oh definitely. I do think Bruno could handle 60 games a season as long as he isn't being hammered for the entire game, or to an extent, not playing every minute. Makes absolute sense to bring him off to conserve fitness, energy and reduce the risk of stress injuries. 

    The strength of the midfield will tell how much of the season he can realistically compete in, if he's got an easier life than the defence last season had (less chances going through to the defence as the midfield shouldn't let it get to the defence, especially with Jack, rossiter and dorrans) then he could play the majority/all of the season. 

    Obviously though it's only fair to give the youngsters a go where possible and he isn't really needed when we get queen of the south away or Inverness in cups, or Hamilton where we should cruise them with what we would now call a second string team (feels great saying that seeing as we wouldn't of beat them easily with our best XI just a year or two back!)

    See where your coming from, but defence is a lot less intensive than attack, hence why sir David of weir played till 40 for us

    Oh definitely - I'm also hoping he is rested to prevent potential injury - we are going to need him in the big games as much as possible - I think the other Portuguese defender and maybe Wilson can handle the bottom 6 teams. Squad rotation is essential, no need to field your strongest 11 every week. 

    DW may well have played a massive number of games, but no guarantees Bruno can handle a potential 60 game season. Plus, it allows the youngsters some invaluable game time that they'll need to develop.
