Another painful watch at Rugby Park. Bottom line though, if Julien isn't such a big girl we go back up M77 with 3 points. 🙅‍♂️

The same problems that have persisted for some time are still very prevalent. Anyone who gets really physical with the two centre halves, Jullien in particular will have a field day. There's a glaring problem at left back which neither Taylor or Bolingoli is the answer to and the three behind the striker, Elyanoussi, Christie and Forrest, have been pretty poor for quite some time. As for Lennon, I'll never be a fan and his inability to make substitutions quickly is fucking infuriating, still though, nice to the old winger switcheroo making an appearance for the 50th time in the last 50 games.

It's not that different to loads of games at Rugby Park and I'm not into overreacting. If Julien does his job we win a scruffy 1-0.

That said, I don't know why Dembele was left on the bench or why we continue to tolerate passengers like the idiot that is Griffiths or perennial sick note Rogic.

Overreacting is my forte my man. It just seems to me we almost sleepwalked into disaster last year and we got away with it because post Christmas Edouard was sensational but more importantly Rangers absolutely folded. Make no mistake this year's is going to be a slug fest and we need to be prepared for it.

😂 Aye OK, you keep overreacting and I'll keep calm. We've nothing to fear from the huns and if we buy a decent centre half, left back and give young Dembele more game time we'll be absolutely fine 👍

I'm sure all the troops rounding on Ramy think they are being hilariously funny. It's not a good look however and it's becoming increasingly uncomfortable to read.

As with Rolling Hills just put him on ignore and do yourself and the board a favour! 

It has been uncomfortable to read for a while. It is bullying. Occasionally it is very funny but then it goes nasty again.

Ramy however has a huge and very fragile ego on him. He was pulled up for making literal GIRFUY posts not that long ago but when folk round on him he goes all 'forgive them Lord they know not what they do'. All the self referential vanity ( i am a legend here etc), endless selfies... he is inviting it. I think he enjoys the attention in a fucked up way.

It's hard to tell sometimes. It was uncomfortable reading at times and a lot was certainly unfunny and came across very much as bullying. But then in pub, face to face, you'd maybe laugh along. It's the trouble with a lot of written communication when you you don't know the people writing it. 

That's where this place needs the mods to be a bit more active again or for others, like Slasher in this case, to step in. I don't mean banning folk but gentle stuff to keep threads on topic.

Having said that, a thread called The Mighty (insert team name) is likely to go one way only.

If we sign a competent keeper, you go back up the M77 with fuckall. 🤷🏻‍♂️

Your keeper problems are nothing to do with us tho. Who knows, at the end of the season it might be a good point for either or both of us.

I think you've summed it up pretty well to be fair. I don't feel particularly sorry for Ramy for those reasons but the whole thing doesn’t sit right with me. On balance it's probably best I just check out of here for a spell 👍

Nor me. On balance it is probably better (for this place) you don't.

It's all down to the mods, if they actually exist anymore. For ages now they have let one bellend in particular run amok without sanction so it's gotten to the point that others are now just being ridiculous and probing to see how much they can get away with, just for sport. Let's face it, the place is fucked, it's barely worth keeping alive in all honesty.

The board is probably costing the people running it money every month. Consequently they are not prepared to put a single second of additional work into it, like moderation or replying to PMs, etc..

I expect it will just disappear one day. You will miss it if it happens.

I dont know why the owners tried to shut it down so abruptly and unexpectedly and then held onto it so tightly when others were looking to take it over.

Slasher stepping in to keep the peace? The man that constantly calls me a hun and has many sheep shagger references to his posts?

Hardly a man of decorum to keep the peace.

Who actually is running the show then? Out of curiosity.

There has been hun and sheep shagger banter on here for years. The Ramy situation has become something different recently.

Maybe so. Doesn’t make it right though, especially when they then go on and greet about the behaviour of others. 
 

If people don’t want to see any forms of grief being used, then they shouldn’t really dish it out themselves. 
 

I’ll happily throw it about and take it back again, but there’s some right hypocritical fuckers in here, it’s quite funny to read at times.

He stepped in and said something. That’s why I used him as an example. What you think of him isn’t relevant to the point I was making. He’s had a go at me in the past too but in this case he made an attempt to try to stop things going further.

I see the fat cunt is using up all his sad emojis on others now. I’m feeling left out. ☹️

With all his various log-ins also. What a boring bastard. Try Viagra and you’ll at least get to blooter your muck. 😂

Yep. The sad fat bastard who gets his semi in a knot over younger guys living more fun lives.

I’d guess at a few but don’t think any are huns. I know one guy for sure that took over and he isn’t. Pretty active in the TA clubs and charity scene, has run a few coaches and is a nice fella. I think whoever took over had good intentions but looks like they lost all interest. Every now and again there’s a suspension which seems odd as there’s little consistency. I’d prefer that there were no bans and just active moderation but I think those days are gone.
