Why don't the players hire a mini bus between them ?

The higher you go in your career you reach a point where somebody older than thinks that somebody younger than you should replace you. Then the "restructure" takes place and with luck they offer you healthy compensation and an early pension. 🤗 By the time your replacement gets to know how the job really works somebody older than them ............ you get the picture? 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Sounds like the way of the Sith and the Rule of Two. The difference is they usually get the “younger” one to kill the “older one”, that is unless the “older one” kills the master then takes on his own “younger one”. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

It's league reconstruction they need to help their position. League reconstruction won't help their position just the league they play in. On the issue of league reconstruction. We focus rightly on the need for a 16 team top leauge but the same is at least as true for the Championship. The ten team format is horrendous Teams in league one that would be making up to six teams East fife Ardrie Clyde Falkirk Raith Rovers Dumbarton All reasonable sides that would add to the division 2 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Slartibartfast 6,940 Report post Posted September 20 Depends if your Tay-toes are from Republic or Northern Ireland I've never heard anyone use poh-tah-toe in my life, except in this context. Toe-mah-toe/toe-may-toe, yes, but it's always poe-tay-toe. I think they just made poe-tah-toe up for the song. 1 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites

Worked well when he was in good health and willing to part with substantial parts of his personal wealth. Eddie Thomson at Dundee United put in millions but when he was gone, his family gradually pulled the plug. 0 Quote Share this post Link to post Share on other sites
