The session with Windass should be filmed and shown on RTV.

Darius72 reacted to Leeds_Bear in Players See Mind Set Coach
He's one of those players fully committed to being at the top of his game, trains really hard by all accounts, puts in extra hours and does everything he can to be an elite athlete and pro.
The complete opposite of players like Pena and Forrester.

Darius72 reacted to jintybear in Semi final ballot
I think the buses and RSCs should get a good allocation because as others have said they wouldn't be able to run without being able to give their members who have missed out in ballots (and I mean all, i.e. Away tickets). I don't have a problem with that. The problem I have is my husbands mate who gets freebies through work, and hasn't been to ibrox in all the the time I've known him, and he hasn't missed any SF or final at Hampden. It's folk like that that makes me raging.

I'm more wanting the wean to get one because he hasn't been to any scum games since we beat them in the semi-final 2 years ago because we sit in the family stand. Even if we get one adult and him then I'llbe fine with that.

Darius72 reacted to D'Artagnan in For whom the bell tolls
“Those who cannot remember the past are condemned to repeat it”
(George Santayana)
Allow me to summarise briefly. The Panel of Takeovers and Mergers ruled that the current custodians of our club did not act properly in their acquisition of same, determining they had acted as a concert party and consequently, having control of 30% of the business were thus compelled to make an offer to investors for the remaining shares.
This was denied by Dave King who took the decision to the Court of Session where his legal argument was rejected by Lord Bannatyne. The Advocate for the takeover Panel highlighted during the hearing an e-mail from George Letham to Dave King which cautioned King about the consequences of exceeding the 30% benchmark. These warnings clearly went unheeded.
Subsequently King was ordered to make an £11 million offer to the Club’s remaining shareholders despite the fact King’s lawyer argued that his client could not afford to make such an offer.
If alarm bells are not sounding amongst our support – they certainly should be.
When Laura Fawkes, a Director of Club 1872, challenged Dave King at the 2017 AGM with regard to the recruitment of a replacement manager, the timescales as well as apparent failure to put in place previous assurances given with regard to succession planning, Dave King responded as follows:
“As far as the manager, I don’t accept the comment you’ve made. It’s difficult to put a time limit on it. The issue with Pedro was not one of succession planning, there’s maybe a perception that Pedro was doomed to failure. It wasn’t my view, I don’t think it was the board’s view, we continued to back Pedro. Ultimately results speak for themselves and having taken action we were extremely aware that this is going to be a 3 year appointment. We have got to be a careful we don’t let adverse results distract us from the process and I’m personally happy that we have taken the correct amount of time.”
After 68 days we had still failed to appoint a new manager and eventually installed the youth coach Graham Murty, as temporary manager. That remains the status quo at the time of writing.
Our club is one home defeat away from our worst ever series of home performances on record. In terms of assessment of our club’s progress, rebuilding and vision to reclaim the top spot in domestic football, it serves as more of an indictment than a positive indicator of continuous and steady improvement.
I would hope by now the alarm bells are loud enough to suggest a major headache is imminent.
Any honeymoon period which the current board deserved is now at an end. It is fine being beholden to them for rescuing us but they need to be judged by the job they are doing now and if that is deemed unsatisfactory or below standard then criticism should be forthcoming.
Not silence.

To everybody who has taken the time to wish me well during this pretty horrible time I thank each and everyone of you from the bottom of my heart, I am not having a very good time just now with feeling nauseous most days and unable to keep any form of solids down. I promise you all that I will keep you all updated on my progress (if you don't mind that is) can I say a special thank you to "Zetland" for keeping in touch it truly means so very much, again a heartfelt thanks to each and everyone of you for caring we truly are a very special family, I thank you all??????????????????????♥️♥️♥️♥️?????????

Darius72 reacted to Ozblue in Connor Lyon (Aviemore)
I would say the answer to that would be that you don't expect that kind of shit from a Bluenose, especially one that has been seen at games by guys on here. For a Bluenose to rob/scam a fellow Bluenose is being lower than a fucking snakes belly.....and that's about as low as it gets. I hope the cunt gets the living shit pasted out of him.

Iceland shouldnt be underestimated. They are topping their group again and it isnt a coinsidence. They did something about their whole structure and 10 years later its paying off. Not bad for a country the size of Aberdeen.

Very happy with this result.
Great fight from the players, fighting for the manager. I think he deserves some credit here. He may not be the man that gets us our title win, but he has passion, and is fighting for us. He isn't like Warburton or Ally. He is Pedro, and we should all get behind him while he is here, at least for now.
Well done Rangers.

If Wes dives the other way then the commentators are saying 'great penalty!!'
A lot of nonsense.
Cannot understand why commentators can't just say how it is. If it's top corner or bottom corner, it's a great penalty. If the keeper saves one of those, it's a great save.
Otherwise, it is not 'great' from either.
