    Why would we take him off penalties when he scores a ridiculous high percentage of them? Free kicks he's the best we have and has scored some screamers in high pressure games too.
    He is dog shit at corners and defending yes but people are rewriting history here to suit agendas.
    His time is up aye but he's been a unreal player for us.

    You would have to be stevie wonder to not see how many times he’s bailed us out over the years.
    The point I’m making is when he’s not doing the business, no one else is stepping up to make things happen either. Which is where we currently find ourselves once again… as I said it’s fucking nuts that we are so dependent on a right back. One that’s aging and quite clearly struggling with the amount of games he’s being asked to play. But due how important he has become to our “style” of play and our piss poor recruitment he’s basically been undroppable.
    We have reached the point where those who rate Tav and those who don’t rate him finally agree… it’s time to move on.

    Tav will always be Tav. He’s either an 8/10 or a 4/10. 
    The issue is that he’s currently the only player in our squad who is capable of rising to the occasion. It’s been years since we had another player who can step up to the mantle and drag us through games. When others fail to show up - Tav has saved their skin… when Tav has a stinker or finds himself on a bad run of form there’s nobody else who’s willing or capable of stepping up. We are so one dimensional.
    In reality it’s fucking nuts that we expect so much from a right back… it’s also quite frankly insane that the club have let it get this far. What other team in the modern game has spent the best part of 8 years building their entire team and style of play around a right back!?
    We have built a team that allows him to smash personal records… but it’s came at the detriment of the clubs wider success.
    I say this as a massive fan of his… it’s time to go. We need a massive culture change at the club.

    Last one was probably the sheep cup final.
    There is no denying he has dug us out of some bad situations in the last but if that’s all he is bringing to the table and it’s happening less often as he doesn’t have the legs anymore for it then it’s time to move on so we can start to share the burden across the team instead of players just hoping he scores a free kick or penalty.
    Much like letting Morelos go, we could have kept him on but it’s living off of past successes that is now the problem, likewise for lundstram, goldson, Barisic, jack, roofe

    In isolation the result at the weekend hasn’t really changed what I believed we needed to do. A win with that level performance against relegation fodder would have raised just as many question about the teams desire to win the title.
    Prior to dropping points to County I was of the belief that if we want to win the league… then we needed to go to celtic Park and win. That’s still the case now, we just have to do it without our safety net.
    Our players going into that game against the mhanks thinking a draw was good enough wasn’t something I was overly comfortable with… the temptation to set up to avoid defeat being forcefully removed might be a good thing. 
    Regardless there’s 4 massive cup finals to be played prior to that match starting with Dundee tonight. Mon Rangers, time to wake the fuck up.

    Even had we beaten county and beat dundee tomorrow night, given our howling record at the piggery id still not have us as favourites 
    Far cry from pre admin when you thought "walters team will scud every cunt at this stage of the season" hell even helicopter sunday season, when we won at Pittodrie the day after hibs done them at the piggery, you had the thought "we can fucking do this" 
    With this lot though, even if we came out the game at the piggery top of the league, id still have a dark thought that we'll somehow shit the bed

    Modding on the Steam Deck is possible - even beefy mods. However you are basically stuck with Bethesda's own mod portal which is limited.
    Beyond that modding on the SD can be a pain in the ass since it runs Linux. If modding is a priority then Windows based device like the ROG Ally or Legion GO is a better option.
    Upgrading storage in all of the above handhelds is very easy.

    If you used the switch guarantee(CASS) then your direct debits will be fine. The mandates are automatically done when they open your new account and close your old one. 
    However if you didn’t switch and just created an additional bank account you’ll need to set up new mandates.

    Thanks for clearing this up, given the sheer volume of complaints that seem to be being made I am sure that your last sentence there will prove to be the case. Obviously the number of complaints will die down a bit after the novelty factor and publicity fades, however there will be events, like Sundays game, Indy marches, Loyal order, Republican parades, celebrity and political outbursts and ill advised statements that will see huge numbers of complaints being made that could see it take weeks for complaints just to be logged, never mind investigated or acted upon. An utter shambles, that absolutely everyone except Useless and his troupe of clapping seals at Holyrood saw coming.

    Makes it considerably harder for the police but not impossible to locate individuals. Like when dealing with ISP’s it’s going to require court orders etc… VPN providers still track who is using their services and the police are still able to request more information from them. Where people fall down with VPN’s in terms of identification is the payment details and personal information supplied.
    VPN’s make it safer to browse the internet… but they don’t give people a golden ticket to partake in illegal activities. 
    The police barely have the resources to deal with actual crimes. Anyone reporting an online hate crime without significant evidence that identifies an individual will be given an incident number and told to fuck off.
