The Cum Doctor Posted January 21, 2011 Author Share Posted January 21, 2011 Incidentally, should Rangers and Celtic draw in the Scottish Cup, the replay will probably be scheduled to fall on the date of this game. How many Celtic fans will boycott that one? Â You mean the game in the SFA's tournament and the most logical one to boycott? I'd imagine the boycott might go on the back burner there. Â The boycott does, of course, make no sense. Dundee doing much the same thing in the first division. Stupidity is all it is. Nothing else.

Paid Members Bettencourt Posted January 21, 2011 Paid Members Share Posted January 21, 2011 Add to the fact your actually playing in a real football stadium, as opposed to 4 sheds with seats in them like most SPL grounds. Hamilton's is an absolute joke. Falkirk's was ridiculous as well. Well, it's worth noting that the "real" football stadium that Rangers call home is starting to show some signs of wear & tear. Most likely due to the lack of financial resources they have to keep it in tip top shape, right? Â 7 or 8 years ago a situation like that wouldn't have been an issue. Â Well, clubs like us have been facing that financial position for fucking years. Some of us don't have the benefit of being financed by a fanbase of tens of thousands of people who live a few hundred years in the past when it comes to religion. Â As i've said before, you can't strangle the other 10 clubs in the league financially then complain that we don't have facilities and teams who are up to scratch. Â But we can blame the other 9 SPL clubs for their short sightedness for rejecting the Sky deal a couple years ago to sign on with Setanta.

Â Bang on the money. Celtic, Rangers and Aberdeen had the totally correct idea. Short-sighted is the exact turn of phrase I'd use as well when talking about the other SPL club's handling of the TV deal. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cum Doctor Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hearts 1-0 Rangers  That really does set the cat among the pigeons. I've never been this excited about an SPL season. If they win against Celtic, I think the OF will be worried. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jambo Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 Hearts 1-0 Rangers That really does set the cat among the pigeons. I've never been this excited about an SPL season. If they win against Celtic, I think the OF will be worried.  More importantly, Dundee 1-0 Falkirk. OOOOOFT! Think it's safe to say we are staying up, getting through the CVA is the huge task though.  662 minutes since the Dees conceeded a league goal. 13 league goals without reply. 1 FULL CALANDER YEAR without losing a home league game. 12 league games without defeat.

The Cum Doctor Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 It's a shame you can't be punished further, because you deserve to be relegated. I suppose it goes to show that you can cheat and get away with it. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Cum Doctor Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Other clubs might have debt, but other clubs didn't spend hundreds of thousands putting a team together to win the division and then moan when it didn't happen.

Last time I checked, it was you that was moaning...  WAH WAH WAH. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cum Doctor Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Morton can sell Cappielow if Dougie Rae gets into bother. Of course, ignoring that Crawford Rae has already committed to the club if something happens to his dad. Â What are the assets that Dundee own again?

Jambo Posted January 22, 2011 Share Posted January 22, 2011 What are the assets that Dundee own again? Â The DBBT last month agreed in principle to buy Dens back from John Bennett once the club exit administration, so the stadium would be one thing. Â Crawford will end up like Stephen Thompson at United, no doubt. Inherit something that costs his inheritance Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Cum Doctor Posted January 22, 2011 Author Share Posted January 22, 2011 Actually, Morton make a loss of about 7k a year. Not quite the same thing when you consider Golden Casket making a profit of about 250k a year. All of our debts are to Golden Casket btw, so if Dougie Rae DID decide to go, or Crawford, the only debt we'd have would come after they've gone.
