Hearts V Hibs
EddardStark replied to hannibal smith's topic in Football related - Discussion of non TA football
Hibs impressed me. They may finish the season stronger than any of the top three.Hearts where industrial but effective. Their defence is excellent and that's why they will win the league. -
last day of my free bets. Newcastle, Falkirk and Blacburn, 10/1.

Stevie Gerrard

Scholes was a superb player. A midfield of him and Lampard in club football would have been something to see. -
Stevie Gerrard

Lampard is the best English midfielder in recent years if you are talking about the era the Gerrard has played in. -
The battle is not over . This from Craig Houston of Sons of Struth. The Great Boardroom carve up I knew it wouldnt be long before for some sort of response from Ashley about the 3 bears buying Laxey shares and some sort of devious scheme to protect his position. His loan which was bullied through despite 2 better funding offers being available seen him get to appoint 2 directors. Despite Somers attempts at the AGM to suggest Llambias was independent not his first placement, it was Ashleys choice. He has been contemplating his second place but due to recent events, Somers email being outed and his possible required removal and the three bears buying shares, Ashley now thinks two directors may not be enough. His loan was for six months but his board placement agreement is for two years and if he could place three directors then this would keep him in power of the day to day running with out needing more shareholding. Over the next few days he will attempt to get Barry Leach on board as an "independent" Finance Director and then place his second choice giving him three directors under his instruction. This could potentially give him control in the board room regardless of the next moves of the three bears for years. Remember what I said yesterday, whoever underwrites the next share issue will control our club and if he controls the boardroom he will in effect decide who becomes the underwriter. I also mentioned yesterday that I was swaying from "game by game" to "not a penny more" these actions go some way to making my decision for me. Those who believed that because the three bears bought shares meant the game was over and the "good guys" had won, need to be aware that its far from over. We are dealing with men driven by greed and not the love of our club. It is my personal decision to become "not a penny more" and every fan should decide for themselves but they deserve to know the facts about who they are about to give their money to. Craig

Q&A session with Neil Doncaster from the BBC. I like this bit :wink2: http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/30646033 "In terms of the question about old club, new club, that was settled very much by the Lord Nimmo Smith commission that was put together by the SPL to look at EBT payments at that time. "The decision, very clearly from the commission, was that the club is the same, the club continues, albeit it is owned by a new company, but the club is the same." So the official take from the SPFL is that Rangers Football Club continues, it's the same club? "Yes, it's the same club, absolutely." People have extreme views on this, so what's the difference between a club and a company? "The member club is the entity that participates in our league and we have 42 member clubs. "Those clubs may be owned by a company, sometimes it's a Private Limited Company, sometimes it's a PLC, but ultimately, the company is a legal entity in its own right, which owns a member club that participates in the league." So, once and for all, the league is putting this to bed, it's the same club? "It was put to bed by the Lord Nimmo Smith commission some while ago - it's the same club."

Dundee's record in recent derby games is appalling.
