Guess we are all professional gamblers then...albeit not very good at it most of the time... If I was a professional gambler I'd have been sacked for gross negligence on my first day!!

On your second point, I'm not a grass. Adam Crozier doesn't post here does he? I can't judge if it's right or not, but every report from Age Concern to the parliamentary investigation castigated it as a disaster, destroying communities, creating "ghost towns", with a "sham" of a consultation process, I can't even find a dissenting report. However maybe the person was arguing that they hadn't been listening to the consultation , with the anonymous TAMBer claiming they had. Then the person with all the facts and knowledge would have been wrong.As evidenced by the ream of post event reports. That's why appeals to authority are a logical fallacy. All these "insiders" with their knowledge said Armstrong wasn't doping, yet the evidence said he was. Basically investigate the claim not the people making the claim.

If some people want to forget them then that's their shout. you still support a club called rangers and that's really what matters to rangers supporters. but you cant expect us to blindly comply. But then we've possibly been through this before I think... I've no idea what happened. Do explain,do you know anything about it? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not sure what Crozier has to do with this except reinforce people taking a stance based on limited information. Alan Cook was the MD of the Post Office which was and is a different legal entity from Royal Mail. Perhaps the TAMBER taking issue with it was just taking pish (not uncommon on here) rather than having a look first before preaching but carry on with your baseless assumptions. Equally the Post Office was criticised by the NFSP (not Post Office people directly) for not closing more outlets as even they recognised that the Network was unsustainable. You do get nobody uses them, they weirdly come out and protest if closure is threatened but never actually walk through the door. I am really unclear WTF Armstrong has got to do with this, they are completely unrelated events. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

When Aaid wouldn't let me know who it was, i brought my considerable intellect to bear and crafted a post intended to antagonize the person into revealing themselves. That was the purpose of the post you quoted. However your argument above has a false axiom that the Post Office had to make money. Anyway I the information i sought, cheers.

Scotty CTA Posted February 4, 2017 Share Posted February 4, 2017 The Rangers have zero points away to Celtic, Aberdeen, and Hearts so far this season... 0/12. V top 5 opposition, they have an away draw at St. Johnstone... 1/15 (and 2/6 v Saintees head to head). They have drawn all 3 games v County... 3/9. The point gap at the end of the season could be a record setting difference (40?) for a team out of Ibrox trying to compete with a team out of Celtic Park. Heads will roll (and that's just the on field stuff). Potentially add 15 or 25 points deduction for an administration. I can see no way out. The conspirators didn't do Sevco any favours by fast tracking them into the bottom league without 3 years of accounts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
