Off Topic Rangers EGM.

All over SSN that a second London hotel has 'declined the opportunity' to host Glasgow Rangers EGM and that it will now take place at Ibrox.

2 things made me chortle regarding this;

1.That it was being held in England. Chortle factor-7.

2.The reputation of the bunch of heathens is that poor no ****er will touch 'em with a barge pole. Chortle factor-9.

 

It's all about the hotels getting threats from unhappy fans. Rangers are saying some of their supporters are so aggressive & mad about what's gone on that they(the board) want to hold this meeting as far away from Glasgow as possible.
How the mighty have fallen.

 

Musta taken an effort even Bates would be proud of to **** over a club like that.

Chortle factor - 10

 

The fact that all this is happening to Rangers rather than Celtic. Chortle factor - 1.

 

Rangers, Celtic?

Meh.

All cut from the same backward, sectarian cloth.

**** 'em both.

 

Should be an interesting read when Brady logs on at 2 in the morning. He's an emotional guy after all...

 

Perhaps it's just a glimpse into the future?

 

Mike Ashley saves the club with a cash injection and installs Derek Llambias as CEO.

He's attacked twice in Glasgow pubs by Rangers fans unhappy that their club has received the cash to keep them afloat.

Chortle factor - 5.

Incredulity factor - 11

 

Kemps, honestly, even by your sad obsessed standards, that's stupid.

A once rich and successful club is basically ****ed.

Dr Allam took an unsuccessful and ****ed club and made it worth more than it's ever been.

 

Oh ffs Happy, smile a bit eh ?

 

Stop been **** a bit first.

 

Tru Dat

 

Look, sorry mate, but i'm not getting into one of those bitch fests we see so much on here. They bore everyone to ****, and smack of self importance.

 

Papist?

 

The fact that where they're having a meeting made Sky Sports News suggests a slow news day to me.

 

EGM stands for Extraordinary General Meeting apparently.

New to me is that one.

 

Funny word that.

Not just "ordinary" but, really really ordinary. I think that's Birmingham's marketing tag line.

 

Aha, a common misconception, allow me to explain.

"Extra" in this instance, and use, means beyond, or more than.

So this word really means beyond ordinary, or, so far away from ordinary it's really not funny.

I've never understood it in the context of meetings either, various institutions and clubs I've been a member of had EGMs to set and agree finances for the year, outside of the AGM as a standard approach. Never felt like they were beyond ordinary as we expected the ****ers. 6 months after the AGM.

BCFC's current tagline should be "It's just a flesh wound, cmon you bastards, we'll have you!".

 

Ta.
