  1. That says it all mate, the man was a goldmine of talent for us, and the gold was in his heart also. Kinder man you'll never meet. Sad all the problems he has been inflicted with over his lifetime, and I hope he manages to stay on the path of recovery. For that one game alone he deserves nothing but the highest respect from us all.
  2. The degree of detail that W&W lay out when producing their plans, is one of the best things about having them both involved with our Club. Preparation, preparation, preparation seems to be the watchword from our management team, and it's paying off. This is another step in the right direction, and will surely bring us nearer our goal of challenging for top spot (next season and beyond), when all the parts are brought into play.
  3. Possibly his greatest goal after the ECWC. Great player and he knew what it meant to play for The Rangers.
  4. Exactly ...... If this is wee McKay playing badly, then we are all in for some amazing stuff when he hits top form.
  5. You know you have really made it when you get "cartoonified", it makes you immortal ...... can't wait.
  6. Congratulations to both and well deserved. Can't wait till they are getting them in the premiership, but this is a nice wee warm up for the real thing to come ...... I have no doubt about this.
  7. "Get your shitebags here...... shitebags, shitebags ..... three furra poun".
  8. Came to us as a 16year old and played ± 90 games and was capped for Scotland ...... so not a bad player. He was a midfielder and was a fairly good player for us ,but not up there with the best, but still he did play for us and was with us from 1999 to 2005. I liked him as he was a pretty good ball player and had a good pass on him, though not a prolific scorer. Sad that the drink has got the better of him, but glad he got caught before he did some real damage. Hope he seeks help and gets his act together.
  9. Oh his name is Peter Houston ...... he has no magic hat, He tried to beat The Rangers ........ but we said no fuck that, He cried, and cried, and cried, and cried ...... on the Falkirk fans' TV, "We could not beat the Gers today ...... cause the ref's a cunt like me".
  10. Thanks for this post BP, sad, sad story indeed, and I'm sure the response will be huge, due to the efforts you and GB have put in, well done mate.
  11. Eustace working for nothing ....... this must be a first, this shows he must have some respect for W&W (who doesn't), and bodes well for us if he finds his fitness and plays a part in the team in the future. Once again MW takes the pc in his stride, and is drilling it into the press his style of management. It won't be long before they get the message that "one game at a time" is just that, and is actually what it means.
  12. Agree there mate , before it was like Ally had to be in all the pictures like it was written in his contract. Now it's all about the squad and that is as it should be.
  13. Thanks for the update GB. Another great display by the support, well done to all who contributed.
  14. Condolences to you both and all your extended family Gogzy. Well done in making his final days comfortable by being there for him, and caring until the end. He sounded like he was a great person to have known, and that is what will shine through to you forever after the pain subsides. Take care mate.
  15. That looks like tables full of old £5 notes, they were as big as a dirty magazine, and you could buy an awful lot of magazines for a fiver, which in those days meant a lot of people having to visit the opticians .......... If you catch my drift. In the modern day we have moved on from this and we now spend our fivers more wisely, thanks to GB.
  16. I can't wait for page 20 or 21......... maybe then we will be notified as to the job description of the post, and other than being a legend, football wise, just what else will RG bring to the table that will convince everyone of his suitability in the position of Global Ambassador. I watched the clip from the official website (under 3mins.), and to be honest It looks like a very controversial appointment, as he himself does not really have a clear idea as to what the role encompasses. I'm all for legends being in and around the Club, but after the last ±4 yrs of turmoil and disappointment with various jobs for the boys scenarios, and their failures, I am not convinced this one has any substance to it, and unless it is really a low key appointment with the relevant low kew salary, I would be cautious with these posts. Honestly the title Global Ambassador could be the what's misleading, as it assumes a possibly higher status than it probably might entail, that needs to be cleared up before we can really make proper judgement on the validity of the position.
  17. Not sure, but this latest edition by DS seems to sway in that direction mate. One of the best from the players, he was cool calm and assertive and never faltered in his answers, so if they are not being coached for the press ,it must be coming from the team meetings as they all seem to be focused on the same issues. Either way it is a joy to listen to them batting every question right out the park for a home run.
  18. The reality check suggested by one of them was swiftly and effortlessly swept to one side by MW, and put into proper context. This is becoming standard fare for him, and they can come at him from any angle they like, but as he says, the formation will not change because of one loss .... similar with his determination not to change his style when dealing with them. DS like all the lads who have been schooled are sticking with the programme, as he displayed by cleverly avoiding talk of past regimes ...... they are irrelevant now.
  19. Cheers OP, just finished watching it on Alba, well worth the watching. He gave me so many good memories that I will hold dear for the rest of my life. When he passed away, I felt a deep sadness, and watching all the past players tonight, you could feel their emotion at losing a great friend. As for myself, who only knew him as a player for our Club, I also felt his loss then, and after watching this documentary tonight I am proud to say the feeling has not left me. The finest football talent Scotland has ever seen.
  20. Somebody in another thread said pair up Oduwa & Zelalem, this could be effective if GZ were to release some through passes to set NO off towards goal. Bit obvious all the same as this should be happening anyway. As ON is such a tall player, I wonder if he is any good with the head, and would he be a good target in the middle of the final third? We have still to score one from a header.
  21. Exactly, especially as one or two of the C Vigo goals were pretty much executed in the same style as O'Halloran's. They will now be in possession of the video of our cup game as evidence that the whole Barca ethos is shite, and the club has to be cleansed from top to bottom of this offensive game plan for the future of Barcelona ..... and indeed the world.
  22. Start with the same team that played on Tuesday and see if they have the character to bounce back and regain some credit. Man mark the Swansea loanee out the game as SJ did to Zelalem, if he proves to show any danger. If we are not getting the results with this then change at half time, that should give us enough time to win the three points. We have the players, they just need to prove they are up for it and have the ability to regain the front foot. Main thing is, we have to sharpen up in all positions, especially at the back, as this reduces the pressure up front that can cause bad decisions being made, and chances at goal being squandered due to over playing. We should not be worried about Morton or any other team in the championship. This will be an easy win for us, maybe not a high scoring game, but an easy enough 3 points.
  23. Some peoples' lives would improve with your take on this Bud, I have never booed either, but I have done a fair bit of shouting my disapproval when pissed off with poor play, but booing is a bit extreme for my taste. Even more so with this new young team, but we have always been a hard crowd to please and some feel the need to express their emotions differently, such is life, and as you say "we all have our own opinions."
