    The only way to change newspapers viewpoints and actions is to get in the mix.  Why would we not want Rangers supporters working for newspapers that obviously have an anti Rangers bias?

    Newspapers, political parties and councils are places of influence, of which ours has steadily dwindled over the last couple of decades. 

    this only works if he's allowed to publish his original version (within means obviously), if it's completely changed by the editor which will probably happen, then what's the point

    7 pages debating and crying like pussies about this is making my heart ache. 

    Our support have indeed melted into conspiracy theorists and victimhood crying like it's the end of days. Media, SFA, aliens, darkened rooms. 

    This opposition player deserves nothing more than being wiped off our shoe, yet we are indeed validating his existence. 

    Why can't we lift our chins, what the fuck has happened to no surrender, no one likes us we don't care?

     If folks are that concerned DO something about it. Don't cry like a baby on the internet. 

    Best post this week

    Roberts rode the challenge well, Had his feet been grounded im sure you could imagine the damage, But of course to you it was cowardly and no chance of a bad challenge. 

    Would you still have thought it was a great tackle if halliday had been sent off?

    The challenge did fuck all, Roberts was able to carry on as if nothing had happened. Took Halliday out the rest of the game though

     

  4. If we had the chance to get out of Scottish Football back in 2012 we should have taken it with open arms.

    This backwater cesspit totally scunners me now. punches one guy, hits a lassie with a chair and attempts to assault a football player and gets let off.

    Fuckin joke.

    Rangers fan would have been locked up for 6 months just for the first assault never mind singing a song

  5. He will be with the youths for a year or so then get punted out on loan to a number of small clubs which IMO will not help his progression.

    He could stay here, be in first team within a year and then grow with that. If he's as good as people say then build the team around him.

    Money hopfully isn't everything to this young lad. He needs some really good advice as this could make or break his career

    This has probably already been posted on here and I've missed it so here goes anyway.

    Our best option to move forward imo is to wait until the summer and do everything in our power to get Frank de Boer here,now it seems like the board want a permanent appointment made now rather than in a few months time.

    So would you rather wait and possibly get what should be our #1 candidate,or possibly jump the gun now and miss out?

    Me personally I'd rather wait,season's been a write off for months anyway.

    I can see both ends of this topic. I would love us to wait for Frank de Boer but I think we need someone to come in now and stop this slide we are on.

    At this rate we will finish 4th or 5th.

    Pardew has been involved in several controversial issues and events. In 2003, the BBC described him as being a "dangerous and distant animal" in the media, referring to his lack of public relations abilities, which has led him to making several rash comments.[93] When at West Ham, the club employed a media advisor for Pardew to help him win over sceptical fans.[3] The following is a list of controversies Pardew has been involved in:

    In September 2003, Pardew resigned from Reading after being refused permission to become manager at West Ham. Reading's chairman John Madejski attempted to create an injunction in the High Court to prevent him from moving to West Ham. Eventually Reading's legal action was dropped, and Pardew joined West Ham after a period ofgardening leave.[17]

    In March 2006, Pardew had a dispute with Arsenal manager Arsène Wenger, after he criticised Arsenal for failing to field an English player in their UEFA Champions Leaguewin against Real Madrid.[94] Wenger suggested that Pardew was being xenophobic,[95] a claim Pardew denied, citing his marriage to a Swedish woman.[96]

    In November 2006, Pardew had another dispute with Wenger after celebrating West Ham's win over Arsenal.[97] Wenger claimed he was provoked into pushing Pardew after Pardew's celebrations at West Ham's late win.[98] Wenger was later fined by the Football Association,[99] while Pardew was cleared of the charges in January 2007.[100]

    In October 2007, Pardew intervened on the pitch in a match against Hull City to try to break up a confrontation between Charlton and Hull players after Lloyd Sam and Ian Ashbee were sent-off. Pardew denied he made the situation worse by intervening.[101]

    In March 2009, Pardew stated on Match of the Day 2 that Chelsea midfielder Michael Essien "absolutely rapes" Manchester City player Ched Evans during a midfield tussle for the ball, in the sense that he bested him physically.[102] The BBC explained why there was no on-air apology, saying: "What Alan Pardew said was misheard, it was thought he used the word 'rakes.'".[103]

    On the opening day of the 2012–13 Premier League season against Tottenham Hotspur, Pardew pushed an official after an incident where the ball appeared to go over the touchline, but the referee deemed it to still be in play. Pardew later apologised, citing his behaviour as "ridiculous".[104]

    In January 2014, during the Premier League match against Manchester City Pardew verbally abused opposition manager Manuel Pellegrini. Pellegrini initially confronted Pardew on the touchline and accused Pardew of frivolously contesting every decision by the referee and was trying to dishonestly deceive the officials even when it was an obvious decision in Manchester City's favour. After the initial skirmish Pardew was caught on Sky Sports television cameras calling Pellegrini "a fucking old cunt". Pardew later apologised only after being confronted by journalists about his abusive language.[105] Pellegrini shrugged off the incident but said he disagreed with Pardew's approach to contesting every decision by the referee.[106]

    In March 2014, Pardew was sent to the stands after headbutting Hull City player David Meyler. The ball went out of play near Pardew and Meyler pushed past him to quickly resume play, at which point Pardew headbutted Meyler. Although Pardew apologised for his actions, he was fined £100,000 by Newcastle United and given a formal warning.[107][108] On 11 March, the FA handed Pardew a three-game stadium ban with a touchline ban for a further four games. He was also fined £60,000 by the FA, in addition to the £100,000 fine from Newcastle United.[109]
