When did you also have the intelligence bypass? "bigoted comments"? A very strange statement to make. I have no idea what your religion is cockles and nor do I care. I personally have no interest in religion, I have no faith and do not care what other folk's religion is. You obviously have a major issue with religion as you continually use the word bigot. Which religions is it that you hate cockles? Why do you hate other's peoples beliefs? What do you want to do to people who have a religion that you hate cockles? With regards to "evidence", do you really think I'm going to waste my time trawling through posts to come up with this evidence? I know what I read... and so do you... You are one of the threatening Old Firm like mob on this forum. You are at the very lead of the knuckle dragging horde. You are an internet hardman! : Thankfully I can avoid distasteful people like you in real life. You are now on ignore cockles so don't bother replying. Your posts are full of drivel and are frankly laughable. Here's laughing at you cockles! : Cheerio!

If this is the cream of our youth academy then we'd be better shutting it down and spending the cash of finding players who can actually do a job in the first team.

What annoyed me previously about 10000 hours was that they were effectively going to use resources and assets belonging to the club (ie the shareholders) to make money to pay off the BoD. It sounded like a complete rip off to me. As I've now sold my shares, I don't really care anymore!

A sure sign that a post is nonsense, has been written by someone with the intelligence of a monkey and can be ignored is when its typed up in capitals.

I'm quite sure you can read billyg's post the same as the rest of us. Stuart's posts are responses to his post.

I see that Plaid Cymru have come and out and said that the SNP, the Greens and themselves will negotiate jointly in the event of a hung parliament... mmmm Is this SNP policy? I'm not sure I have seen this mentioned? Am I mistaken? Why on earth would the SNP agree to that? And why should they sell Scotland down the river and agree to allow these 2 parties to piggy back on Scottish votes before the SNP even know if their help is needed? Surely Welsh nationalism is something for the Welsh people to decide? Surely if Welsh nationalism is rejected by the Welsh people and Plaid Cymru's seats aren't need then why on earth would the SNP allow them to negotiate with them? Plaid Cymru are unhappy with the fact that Scotland gets more money than them... ignoring the fact that the reason for this is the vast land mass of Scotland. Getting into bed with the Welsh nationalists over this matter could end up with Scotland getting less money and playing into the hands of UKIP. And what on earth does Scotland have in common with a Green MP from the rich southern English city of Brighton? Why on earth would the SNP get into bed with a party that wants to wreck the North Sea Oil industry? It looks to me as if the SNP are hiding this from the Scottish electorate and are preparing to sell Scotland down the river.

Did they? Are you sure that the manager was paid off and not put on gardening leave? I was under the impression that he was sold because the BoD agreed to sell him for a reasonable fee when he signed the contract in the summer. I suspect, like most of your posts, that you just made it up. Didn't you...

On the contrary, I see myself as being very brave being an open Conservative in Scotland. Being a Conservative in Scotland is a bit like being a St. Mirren fan when playing the Old Firm. You have to hide your colours and disguise your support for the righteous cause for fear of being abuse and physically attacked by the mindless, cowardly hate mob. What's going to happen at this election is that the SNP are going to take away a pile of seats from Labour. Seats with which, had Labour won, would have enabled them to form a majority government with the Liberals. And this will entail the Conservatives being the largest part and forming a government with the DUP and the Liberals. Ernie says he expects the Tories to be the largest party regardless of what happens in Scotland. In reality though, the Tories will be the largest party because of what happens in Scotland. Its a fantastic prospect to think of Cameron & Osbourne in power for another 5 years on the back of the SNP vote in Scotland. And with an improving economy, we should hopefully see a return to a Conservative majority at Westminster in 5 years time. 10 years of Tory rule thanks to Alex Salmond!

Deary me. Its a shame when someone lacks intelligence to such an extent that they lower themselves to foul mouthed personal abuse. Your post has been reported. Hopefully the mods will do their duty and you will be banned from the forum. I won't hold my breath though. The likes of Ernie & Cockles regularly post foul personal abuse towards fellow posters when they lose the plot. Indeed, Cockles even threatens physical violence and gets away with it. So much for zero tolerance. Its like 1930s Germany on this forum...

And, as I've explained Ernie, the sole reason that the Tories will be the largest party is because the SNP will win so many seats from Labour. The SNP are going to deliver a Conservative government.

Nothing funny about it IOBS. Its currently looking like the Tories will be the largest party. When you take out the Sinn Fein MPs, the Tories could well be able to have a majority with the support of the DUP and the Liberals. And that's before the fear of the SNP holding the balance of power really starts to hit the English voters over the next few weeks. Alex Salmond will be the Tories main weapon in England. I can't see the Liberals supporting Labour if they aren't the largest party, particularly as they won't want to be seen to be siding with a party (SNP) that wants to break up the UK. Every seat that the SNP wins from Labour ensures that the Tories will be the largest party. I'll be voting SNP to try and help that happen, as are all the many fellow Tories that I know. 'mon the Tartan Tories!

I have decided to bite the bullet and vote SNP. The Tories will be the largest party after the election and, along with support from the Liberals and the DUP, I believe they can form a minority government. I don't believe that the Liberals will support Labour if they are not the largest party and rely on the SNP for a majority. If Labour were to be the largest party and did not have to rely on SNP support then I believe that the Liberals would back them. Therefore, it seems to me that voting SNP is the best way to ensure a Conservative government. And just as the SNP gave us a Margaret Thatcher government which worked brilliantly for Scotland, it will be great to see Alex Salmond & Nicola Sturgeon deliver us another 5 years of Cameron & Osbourne.

Doh! But not 636 people obviously.

So, let me get this straight (again)... because the BoD haven't issued a statement apologising for their laziness and pleading for supporters to support the team, this means they are sitting about quietly in the background? Do you think they just sit about all day at the stadium, waiting for letters to fall off above the main door?

638 views. That's a bit different from 638 people.

Should I add: "And we'll try to make sure no more letters fall off the front of the stadium"?

So, let me get this straight... You want the BoD to issue a statement along the lines of "We are really sorry for our lack of effort this season. We were too tired to be bothered thinking too much about the decisions we made. Unfortunately this means we are going to be relegated. Its all our fault. We'll see if we can be bothered to try a little harder next season. In the meantime, please come out and support the team. They could do with your support, especially as we can't be arsed ourselves. And here, we'll knock £5 off the gate price, its the least we can do in light of how lazy we've been."

Exactly what I was thinking! What the fcuk sort of message do folk want?

For once, got to agree with you.

Some very good work there WP. However... Just for balance... The first 6 seasons had the Old Rangers in the league and the latter 3 seasons have, in effect, had the old Rangers replaced by a side from the second tier. This season also sees the exclusion of Hearts and last season had a weakened Hearts, whereas all the previous seasons had a Hearts which had the 3rd biggest wage budget in Scotland. So, its not a truly like for like comparison... Interesting to note though that GM's 4 seasons in the top flight see a better win % than DL's first 3 seasons... despite the fact that he had a £3 million debt and no training facilities for a large part of that era and DL didn't face Rangers in his second last season.

Or, in other words, let Stu piss all over Ernie... as he does in every other thread.

Why don't you try offering an opinion for a change?

But "we" can tell Westminster to piss off if we want. "We" had that opportunity back in September and sizeable majority decided against. Scotland voted no. Deal with it.

Like I said, his political beliefs are irrelevant to myself. I can think for myself. I like (some) of his music (albeit my main pleasure was to hear him sing the 4 miserly Smiths songs that he did) and I connect with some of his lyrics. For me, The Smiths are the greatest band of all time. I do like your post however. Its got all of your hangers on into a rage! Particularly Ernie.
