gj923 reacted to Prso's headband in Daniel Candeias Leaves to Turkey
I find it amazing the amount of people claiming Candeias made Tav a better player. They’ve been playing together for 2 and a half years. It’s only in the last season that Tavernier has become an absolutely exceptional footballer, head and shoulders above anyone in his position in the entire league.
That’s down to Tav, not Candeias and saying it isn’t is a total disservice to Tav himself.

We have finished every pre season the last few years filled with confidence...then the league starts. Honestly need to wait to see where we are in 38 games in the league and if we win a cup.

gj923 reacted to govanblue in govanblue in Fund Retirement Shocker!!!
No it’s not a clickbait title- for once!
So after 6 years of fundraising, I’ve finally decided that it’s finally time for me to finally hang up my gloves, and finally start to draw the curtain down on my overly-long involvement in what was actually only supposed to be a one-off fundraiser. There are lots of random, unrelated and non-controversial reasons behind my decision, the main one being health-related, so that’s the end of that discussion!
I’m sure many of you will be delighted at the news of my retirement, because let’s face it, I’m an annoying cunt, even on a good day.
What I don’t want to do though, is leave either Erskine or the many Loyal Fund Members suddenly in the lurch, so I have hopefully come up with a workable exit strategy…
We have already just recently paid £2500 for 10 Erskine & Combat Stress Season tickets renewals for the coming season, and we still have a few hundred quid left in the bank to cover Europa and Cup tickets for the next couple of months, plus our previously promised donation to Bravehound, so we’re good for a while.
We will shortly launch the RM Erskine Fund 2019/20 New Season Membership/Donations thread just as we had planned to do. But this time, it will run only for about one month, giving any members who wish to continue their support into next season an opportunity to do so. After which, we will stop accepting donations into the current Fund account.
The money raised from that fundraiser, added to the money that we already hold in reserve, should mean that we will have enough money to maintain our spending for the rest of this season (albeit on a reduced budget), and also still hold enough money in reserve to pay for next season’s season tickets, which will be approx £2500 and will be due in May 2020, which means we will be providing continued support using just our existing (plus next month's) resources, until May 2021, which I think is not a bad exit strategy.
Of course, that’s using just our existing (plus next month’s) resources. After I end my fundraising involvement, it doesn't mean that other Members can’t keep things going in all sorts of ways – it just means donations won’t go through my bank account, so you’ll need to work something out yourselves for that side of things. (off the top of my head, I can think of loads of options, so it shouldn't be too hard to come up with some fully workable ideas). I will of course be fully available to the Fund in an offline advisory capacity for as long as my input is needed.
So may I take this opportunity to thank Everyone who has so wholeheartedly supported our efforts over those many years. I only made the outlandish demands I made, because I knew there were People like you there to meet them. And together, I think we made enough of a difference for it to have been ultimately worthwhile.
So there you go – that’s the plan. Keep your eye out for the season 19/20 Membership Fundraiser thread which will be along soon, and let’s make it a good one.
Oh and don't forget, you've got a Dug to feed too!

He’s some cunt this Ashley, just how did he manage to make us sign a new deal that we all loved knowing we would fuck it up and he could take us to court for the damages.
The seeing into the future fat cunt really is on his game.

His son gets paid so yes he is profiting. Also question how short if anything the list of potential candidates. It was clearly a thank you for giving them control of the shares.

Are we the only club in the world that has a club shop that pretends it's not the official club shop while being the only place that sells the official gear?
Great stuff

I thought Herrera had remained in Mexico to train with the team he had been on loan with? Surely we are not paying his full wage to kick his heels there. We not just released him already?

gj923 reacted to LiverpoolBlue in Feeling like a little kid again
Ambling through Formby this morning, wearing my Rangers polo shirt of course, couldn't believe my eyes to see SG walking towards me. He was going into one of the main street's restaurant chains with his daughter. Shaking my hand before they went inside, we did manage a brief chat - he is confident this year we'll see 55
Can't understand why a 60 year old can feel like a 6 year old again though

Gallant Pioneer is a great pub
Although last time I was in it there was a group of lads and one of them had decided to support Inverness sometime in and around 2012. Said it had nothing to do with going down the leagues he just enjoyed it more.
I gave him absolute hell for the duration of my time in the place.
