    It's not until you look back at RTG that you realise how mental it is, and not in a good way.

    In that Mail story about Kenyon talking to them about the Mags it even says it’s close to being finalised and it’s partly written by Craig Mag Hope

    Thanks for the summary, I just wish this was all over and done with.
    Ha'way the takeover.

    Our man in Blackhill, last night, sent me a WhatsApp after I'd gone to bed.

    I wouldn't normally repeat something that Donald has said in confidence but he seems to have sidestepped that principle last night so balls to it.

    My mate was there with an in-law who asked Donald, off Mike after the event, what were the chances of it happening ...

    .... 99% was the answer which, ironically, is more than 50% so at least he's consistent <laugh>

    No it definitely wasn’t. The last year or so has made practically unreadable in my opinion. This place seems much more sane.

    Do you think the talk itself was gamesmanship?

    I know you have not quoted me but I think he couldn’t back out of it and just played the politician for the night .Said a lot without actually saying anything so it seems which I fully expected .

    I've posted on the SMB for years (first account is on a lifer) and have always found pure football to be hard graft. Every post gets attacked so I rarely post there and stick to the other sections.

    Just catching up on this thread and my optimism remains intact. I know there is always a chance this could go tits up but nothing I've read this morning has set any alarm bells ringing.

    The sheer volume of posts in some threads makes it very difficult on there for me especially on match days.

    No, it used to be brilliant back in the day. It’s progressively got worse for about 10 years and is now just a cesspit of misery and bitterness.
