Aye, I was saying on ChatBox the other day that a friend of the family had that MND and it's utterly ****ing savage. It was like looking at two different people entirely.

The picture wasn't about Ricksen it was about the fanny who created a Facebook group called "Lets All Pray For Fernando Ricksen"

Aye, because that'll help the man, some tube creating a Facebook group. It's self-appeasement and maudlin self-appeasement at that.

Almost as much use as a page wanting rid of the Easdales.
 
I'm looking forward to the first 'Old Firm' game in three years. I've booked a holiday for next week just in case though. Somewhere where there's no internet access.
 
It'll just be their team of auld cloggers trying to kick lumps out of Celtic while the mongsticks in the stands sing about Ireland & religion.

I'll no be watching it.
 
I was going to get a ticket but can't be arsed with the hassle and trying to get home and ****.

Plus, we'll get annihilated 6-0 because we are pish poor.

Watching the legends yesterday, bit of a cliché, but most of them would get into the current Rangers team. Gordon Durie played at RB and would get in in front of Richard Forster, Gattuso was flying into tackles and wee Tam Buffel was excellent too.
 
Quite a few folk have said to me it was a decent day out yesterday. It's frightening how quickly that disease takes over the body, the guy who I knew who had it was quite old so it wasn't as pronounced as it was on Ricksen. Wouldn't wish that on anyone.
 
I'll be there to see us put the tribute act in its place :grin:, but my feeling is that advert in the Herald is really badly timed. I have no problem with them saying it (cos no **** else will) but they have left themselves open to accusations of cranking up the tension. If they really felt compelled to do it, why not hold it till after the game?
 
Aye, it was terrible seeing Fernando like that. Guy can't even wave, hardly walk and he was at Ibrox last year and to see the regression he's made in such a short time is heartbreaking.

Stupidity?..

It's the fact that he's a footballer from the recent past. No like it's some guy who was playing 30 years ago.

Fine one week then the next the doctors telling you that's it you're ****ed. Scares the ****e out of me.
 
Yeah mate, not the smartest thing I've ever seen. All incidents outside the stadium will now be referred back to that add!

Spending £3k on it seems redundant anyway because literally no **** who doesn't support Scottish fitba will care about it and those who do support Scottish fitba have heard both sides of it ad nauseam
 
It's obviously in response to headlines like "when Rangers emerged from liquidation" and the idea that we should all just go back to how things were, nothing to see here. The media are determined to make us 2 halves of the same coin regardless of what we say.

My fear is it will contribute to some young guy getting his face ripped off.
 
I doubt there will be trouble round Hampden. Some fanny will get a doing in the town and it'll be blamed on the match.

I'm more worried that people see a game against a **** Championship team who play guff fitba in a joke competition as a big game.

The incumbents of Ibrox were for tearing the face off their own at the Hearts match. I don't think this Ad will add anything more to the expected trouble
