Getstiffed 8,863 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 I'd like Riordan frankly. We're not talking about needing a world class forward here people. Walter needs a different style of striker as he has 3 in the target man mold. He has to do it for less than 500,000 and 10,000 wages (I'd assume). Can you imagine if Riordan scored the goals that cost them another league title or had ANY other discernable impact on Rangers retaining the title? Condemning them to a financial black hole?! Id laugh? Id fucking shit mate. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Id laugh? Id fucking shit mate.To be fair, there's a lot of truly massive potential for hilarity and GIRFUY factor in this ludicrous and unlikely transfer but I'm not sure I can cope with the existential strain of balancing my appreciation for him if he did such a thing to the tims with my recognition of the fact that he's an absolutely dreadful human being who should never be afforded the privilege of wearing the glorious royal blue of the Rangers.I genuinely would not know whether to laugh or cry.

Just like I did when the badge kisser put 2 past them at the midden the first Old Firm game after he signed.Absolutely fucking loved it pal. Couldn't have scripted it better. And if the wee cunt that Riordan is--is what spurs him on to damage that mob for years to come? Ha fuckin haSell him on for a profit and chortle my ass off.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 People who compare Riordan to Kenny Miller need to realise that maybe in general the situation is the same, but in reality it isn't. Miller came back having a huge hunger to prove everybody wrong, and refused to turn on the fans. Riordan, after 5 or 6 games of the majority of Rangers fans constantly booing him, would stick the two fingers up at us. We've seen his temperament in Edinburgh derbys were if he isn't getting his own way, he just does what he fucking wants. He's a clown of the highest order we need to stay well clear of him.

JimmyCR1 1,532 Posted January 28, 2011 Share Posted January 28, 2011 its a tough one, he is a good striker and could do us a job, but he is a rat. His free kicks could also come as an advantage as we seem incapable of ever scoring one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Much better player and has a left foot/could go to left wing if stuck.Doesn't mean I like the guy. He's an absolute turd of a boy, but in a footballing only sense - I can reluctantly accept it.
