shull Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 What about the Green Scum are they not bigger than Servco on its own. Rangers are no longer a global brand anyway, cos their deid. Its a bit like saying Hillman cars are bigger than Ford. Is the Imp bigger than the Ka ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Sunny Saint Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 http://www.dailyreco...th-tier-1265251 The Daily Record, astute as ever, kind of states the obvious. "Global Brand" Rangers have a bigger support than all the 11 current SPL "local clubs" put together. Its a bummer but we've learned to live with it over the years. File this article in the same place as "Old Firm reserve match draws bigger crowd than 5 SPL matches". Award winning journalism eh? The Dandy shouldn't be the only comic thats disappearing. Best bit of that story: And the final figure could present an embarrassment for the SPL whose combined attendance for last weekend’s five-game fixture card was 40,383. Yes, I'm terribly embarassed we can't pull in a bigger crowd than Rangers in the Third Division. St Mirren have the population of Paisley (roughly 80,000?) to pull on for home games. That's pretty much it, give or take a few here and there, and that's living in the shadow of Scotland's biggest city and biggest two teams. Rangers have more than 500,000 in Glasgow, glory hunters the world over and a catalogue of idiots from Northern Ireland to draw upon. They have also had trophy after trophy for these fans to feed off; our last national one came in 1987. No wonder they get significantly more fans. Shite journalism.

St. Sid Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Or is the Ka larger than the Imp ? Is the hybrid version called the Kimp....I overheard faraway saint saying he's got one of those in his dungeon...strange place to keep it but he's an odd fellow.

shull Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Aye, very good, but which one is bigger ? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insaintee Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Aye, very good, but which one is bigger ? The imp probably does have more interior space. I don't know for certain my Scout leader regularly got 10 of in his imp estate. Dont fancy trying that with a Ka. Its bad enough trying to get 4 in.

St. Sid Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 You will find the answer at the excellent Transport Museum. They have Hillman Imps on display...cannae beleive how wee Capri's were. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
insaintee Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 Good idea sid, give them a call. Capri was shite by the way. Saw a Rover 3500 in blue on my way to work this morning. Which is bigger a Rover 3500 or series 5 BMW? Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
shull Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 (edited) Wish i had kept it on topic.

reborn saint Posted August 17, 2012 Report Share Posted August 17, 2012 I hope so .... Lord Nimmo Smith will chair an Independant Investigation into the so called dual contracts at Rangers. The SFA managed to stop the appeallate tribunal by getting CG to accept the transfer ban. Rangers would be dead now if that tribunal was allowed to be heard and Lord Carloway has now resigned from the panel (in disgust IMHO) although maybe his new job is the only reason. Lord Nimmo Smith will make his judgement without any influence from the SFA and The stripping of titles might be the least of their worries. Make no mistake These titles are now as good as gone...It remains to be seen if he can make Shulls dream come true. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Should have been all 3 points for Berwick....very dodgy refereeing decision....I wonder how long the "faithful" will be demanding Green keeps fat sally in post.

shull Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 I'm not a lump it up the park person. Nothing wrong with a passing game as long as its done at pace and an attacking mode just like Fergies Furies 1976/77. It can be mixed up with the long ball tae like that wonderful Saints team of 1999/00 managed by Sir Tom Hendrie. Tippy tappy sideways and backward fitba is shite.

bud77 Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 They have just achieved one of their previous incarnations ambitions and played league football in England. Just imagine if they had managed to get into the championship. By the way, have they won any league games away from home so far this season ?

reborn saint Posted August 26, 2012 Report Share Posted August 26, 2012 (edited) fishal reason given was that the goalie was blocked. Naebody near him. I watched the game and to be fair the ref was distracted as he dropped his flute and had to rely on his 4th official Alistair McCoist.
