Ya wee beauty.....

Received my NEW Gers' home jersey in Friday's post!!!!

It's a cracker. In fact, it sooooo "phat" it would make the Captain handsome, Jinky slim and Regs looking like a throw back to Dr. J's days in the ABA.

Nice.

Follow, Follow, We will follow Rangers
Everywhere, anywhere, we will follow on
Dundee, Hamilton.....you know the rest

That is pathetic.

Obviously that will change when the Auld Firm got to the EPL or Nationwide league though.

Rumour is Martin O'Neill is locked in at Parkhead for a while and his contract reworked?
Good for the hoopsters I guess.

What is a....

Hoopster? Are you referring to the bead rattling, Great Unwashed or the basketball team from Boston?

In regards to the specky, Tourette's patient who manages Shitic, he'll be away after his contract is up. Your heard it here first.

God Save the Queen.

Buckfast.

PS - Captain, I'm busy on the 12th.....being a Friday night and all. Can we arrange for this pint on the Sunday?

Hullo!....Hullo!.......

A Hoopster or Hoopsters (plural) are green and white mucas filled tubs 'o shite my good man Buckfast who are soon to be dethroned from their lofty perch. :eek:

Although some may argue that 1 out of 3 pieces of silverware does not constitute a lofty perch. :eek:
However, 2 out of 3 pieces of silverware could be served as a better debate. :cool: :cool:

AC Milan 2 Boys in Blue 2.

Fcuking all over them.

Keep your heads up Bhoys.

Here....we....go!

Mucas is normally green isn't it?

OK, OK, OK.

Just a small wee dig to get everybody's attention.
Maybe a bit offside as well.

I think my opinion on the mob fe' Parkheed is well documented.

The last thing I need is to feel the wrath of my idol here on this site.
I mean, other than Ally McCoist, you're it in my world Jinks.

Looking forward to this year's SPL and getting a little excited to say the least.

All in jest and love and kisses, :)

The guilt trip continues........

With much thanks mate.

BTW, you will note my love of the Irish with respect to this mentioned themed restaurant which sponsors TTP.....

Also, have I ever told you I'm a half breed?

Grasping at all straws for forgiveness,

No SPL?

Scottish clubs plan to quit despite TV deal

GLASGOW (Reuters) - Ten of Scotland's premier league clubs plan to resign from the SPL after failing to resolve their bitter row with Celtic and Rangers. ADVERTISEMENT


All 12 SPL clubs agreed a two-year TV deal with the BBC at a meeting at Hampden Park but failed to find common ground on the issue of the league's voting structure.

As a result, the 10 non-Old Firm SPL clubs confirmed their intention to quit the league, just three days before the start of the new season.

"The 10 SPL clubs do intend to resign in the next 24 hours," said Motherwell administrator Bryan Jackson on the SPL's official website.

The group of 10 first raised the prospect of resigning after Celtic and Rangers blocked the launch of an SPL TV channel in April.

League rules state that two years' notice must be given for clubs wishing to leave the SPL and there are hopes a compromise will be reached eventually.

At present an 11-1 majority is needed to implement a major change such as the TV rights deal, but plans to change to an 8-4 majority were rejected by the two leading Glasgow clubs.

Before Wednesday's meeting, Celtic chief executive Ian McLeod said: "If the disagreement over the SPL's voting structure remains unresolved, I would be in favour of the issue going before the Scottish Football Association and letting them act as independent arbiters.

"We've responded to the SPL request and both Celtic and Rangers have accepted the TV deal that was on the table. But we have to draw a distinction between the current TV deal and the future of the SPL."

TV DEAL

Rangers and Celtic had earlier joined the other 10 clubs in agreeing the new television deal with the BBC worth 17.5 million pounds over two years.

"We are obviously delighted the television deal has been finalised. I think that is what the fans want to hear," said McLeod on the club's official website on Wednesday.

Rangers chairman John McClelland was also happy an agreement had been reached.

"I am delighted that after many months of discussion we have now completed broadcast TV contracts which can only be good for all members of the SPL," he said in a statement.

The package includes live action, highlights and radio coverage. However, the cameras are unlikely to be in place when the Scottish season starts this weekend.


Should be an interesting couple of days before the start of Celtic's third in a row........Somehow Rangers are behind it, so they don't have to tie all the shizer teams that they have tied over the last few years. You know, the ties that found them 18 points behind Celtic at the end of the season. Anyway, would anyone else be interested in seeing 30 auld firm matches this year? I would. However, both teams would have to sign another 22 players each, in order to deal with the injury problems.

The above post would appear to be moot at this point...

The Old Firm today threw their weight behind a TV deal which should end the long-running dispute over rights to screen this season’s SPL matches. Ian McLeod spoke to the press at half-time during the Hoops’ 3-0 friendly win at Love Street to confirm that both Celtic and Rangers have voted to back the league’s recommendation that a deal be signed with the BBC and Setanta Sport.


It looks like Celtic can go on and win its' third championship in a row. Sorry Guinness, Bucky, RF, and any other supporters who are silly enough to follow the 2nd place team in Glasgow....:p
