    I've said several times I haven't taken offence to anything. clear on that now?

    I've also already said I made my comparison ridiculous to show the nonsensical point you had tried to make about "its OK coz they can do it too".

    You just don't seem to be able or want to understand. 

    So to be ultra clear. Nothing, especially you, has offended me. your point was nonsense.

    I've omitted the analogy so you can hopefully get it without Deflection this time.

    Stop taking things to heart, you can't take offence at everything on the internet.

    If you say so. 

    I don't even know what that term means but I'm guessing it sits alongside the " I've no answer to your point, so I'll throw out a made up term" universal defence? 

    I simply stated that I believed people wouldn't find offence with a particular flag if another side happened to use it(we can't factor in Rangers fans incredible sensitivity into normal conversation).  A hypothetical situation.  You have clearly taken real offence to that, used ludicrous and nonsensical comparisons which absolutely doesn't elaborate whatever warped point you were trying to make.

    Apparently one of the banners declaring war on the huns is actually a love sentiment from the song 99 balloons according to an imaginative soul on here. 

    It's everyone else's fault that it is not understood as such.

    I think that was the latest excuse anyway.

    Ninety-nine decision street
    Ninety-nine ministers meet
    To worry, worry, super scurry
    Call the troops out in a hurry
    This is what we've waited for
    This is it, boys, this is war
    The president is on the line
    As ninety-nine red balloons go by

    If I was a Celtic fan, that's the reasoning I'd be using.  We all know how they enjoy 80's music at Celtic Park with Depeche Mode and Simple Minds being favourites...

    So being a bellend is ok as the other side are allowed to be equally as big bellends? 

    And how far does this reciprocal arrangement extend?

    Assaults, murders? your point is ridiculous. 

    Not as ridiculous as that response.  As stated, it referenced the banner people seem to be up in arms about and if that banner was reciprocated by Rangers towards Celtic, I doubt anyone would be bothered by it(I may be wrong).  No one, not anyone, apart from you has mentioned murders and assaults justified because the other side have may have perpetrated such acts, that is the musings of mope who longs for such situations to happen so they can be offended by it.

    The Rangers statement is a mere smokescreen to cover the pumping they've just had, the indifferent start to the season they've had, the lack of proper investment in the squad, the questionable singing policy, dubious finances of the current BoD, complete lack of infrastructure modernisation and that the manager is able to manage the side Monday to Friday from London whilst looking for an out.

    Moving on, Nena of 99 Red Balloons fame; Aye or Naw?

    No one said it was. 

    But can you imagine the uproar if there's a banner saying tattie picking scum at the next derby at ibrox?

    I assume many defending these actions would be outraged. 

    If Rangers hung a reciprocal banner saying "know your place Tim scum" I doubt people would be that bothered by it.

    I like this push of the "This is it bhoys, this is war" as some sort of call to arms in the Glaswegian Sectarian Wars, has no one ever heard 99 Red Balloons?

    Nena is in her mid 50's these days and would definitely be worth a ride.

  6. If you can keep Hamsik quiet you go a long way to getting a result against Slovakia.  They are pretty cumbersome at the back(Skrtel is atrocious), have dodgy keepers and are woefully short of options up front.

    Granted we still look poor at the back, but I was impressed with our willingness to go forward last night and our eagerness to get the ball to the front 4 as quickly as possible.  With Paterson in at full back being an improvement going forward and in defence on Hutton, that area is also a potent attacking threat.  I liked Bannan and Fletcher sitting, it looked a more composed set up compared to the last campaign.  

    If we continue in the same vein as last night, we will give ourselves a brilliant chance of Qualification.

    22, 23 and 26 year old and on 2/3 year contracts rather than the usual one year and they've played at reasonable level. Happy with that. 

    Rumours Pearson heading back to India. 

    Bannigan has been offered a deal, Brill having a medical before discussing a contract and McDonald to re-sign.

    Pearson has been offered silly money from an Indian club so he may be off and we'll get a decent fee for him into the bargain.

  8. Croatia have been (barrring a 15 spell of implosion) the best team I've watched in the tournament so far. A population of 4.2m doesn't seem to hold them back.

    The SFA and SPFL are the biggest barriers to the progression of football in this Country.  The unfortunate thing is, it will never change change as there is too much apathy across the board.  We won't be qualifying for a tournament for a very long time, if ever, under the current qualification systems.

     

    Poor coaching, poor facilities, nepotism, dinosaur attitudes, small mindedness, incompetence, social exclusion are amongst a long list of failings in our game and Scottish society in general.

  9. Been busy at work and only had the opportunity to try this morning.  Hibsed it.  On 5 points and have booked up to go, but don't think I'll make the effort if I can't get to the match and just take the hit on the flights.

    I'd forgotten about him, looked really promising last season, apart from his interview skills. Can take a punch too...

    He certainly seems to have screwed the nut has featured a bit more recently and is still very highly thought of at Elland Rd.  He can definitely be in with a shout of Scotland honours in the future if he progresses. 

  11. Don't agree with Martin and Mulgrew playing at all.  Both are dug shite.

    I like Bridcutt and think he is a useful addition to the squad and young Burke looks a player.  I would have liked to have seen Jamie Murphy get a cap tonight, but hey ho.

    Tierney and McGinn impressed on their debuts.

    I'd take shite one nil wins in every qualifier.
