    I post here and there and the other there, and it's not all winding up and gloating :) There's a difference with blatant trolling and slagging the rivals. If the shoe was on the other foot you'd be rubbing it into us.

    How dare you suggest i'd be rubbing it in!
    :p

    Still "Agenda"?
    It's good to know you're still a wee bit paranoid at least! ;)

    Rangers fans seem to be the most paranoid fans in football just now

    I take it you didn't read the last thread when we won 3-2 ;)

    Pompey, every fan of every club demands success. It is upto hierarchy of club to manage expectations. I dont know enough about detailed finances of Rangers to get into a debate on this i am afraid. From the outside looking in, the punishment seems extremely harsh. It is like Rangers have been given multiple fines for same offense, ie going into admin. I would have said David Murray was a fine man and a very successful businessman. I wouldn't think anyone could describe Craig Whyte in the same vein. The genuine Rangers fan who goes to see his team play every other Saturday is not to blame here, that much is certain.

    So you're admitting you don't know what's going on but you think the punishment is harsh???!!!

    Only you Brewster...

    May I suggest you read up on the catalogue of maladministration over the last 20 that has put Rangers in the difficulties they're currently in before you come to have an opinion on it?

    I came into the Celtic forum to see what the comments were on the fantastic win on Monday night in the Youth cup final and cannot find any. ( I usually stay away as if I want to know about the other side I would go on their thread which so many Celtic fans seem to frequent).

    Well done to the youths for the fantastic win. Listened to the match on BBC and was a little upset not to be able to watch it. However have now seen the goals and highlights and am delighted to think we have so many promising young players coming through.

    Hopefully after Tony Watt's amazing debut last weekend we will see a few more get a run out for the last few games.

    I hope that Neil, Alan and Johann stay with us and continue to grow and nurture the team.

    Is there any further update on the team coming to Dublin in July? Any info would be appreciated.

    I agree, this thread seems to have been bogged down in stuff pertaining to our rivals.

    On your point, absolutely sensational win by the youth team. First off, credit to QOTS for getting to final, by all accounts they had a very young team with some 15 year old lads in it, whereas we can call on the likes of McGeouch, Fraser and Twardzik who have all played senior football.

    It sure is an exciting time for Celtic fans, Forster, Izaguirre, Rogne, Matthews, Ledley, Kayal, Wanyama, Hooper, Forrest are really young (prob left out another couple) in addition to these other young bhoys coming through. Have not heard any plans for the Dublin Super cup again this year, if memory serves it was not shown in the best light last year press-wise. I know there is another tour of US in the pipeline, but it will all be tailored towards CL qualifiers you would imagine.

    I was referring to the judgement Bobby. I have read the judgement and I stand by what I say. All the fines stem from one event, not paying the PAYE. This forced administration and fine, this forced bringing game into disrepute charge and the fine. The actions of one man has lead Rangers to their current situation. Nothing whatsoever to do with 20 years of maladministration in my view. If Craig Whyte had not seized control of Rangers would they be in administration now? I'd argue no, but that's just my opinion based on what I've read. You have a different view and that's cool. This is last I am going to say on this subject as its the wrong thread for it by all accounts. I dont want to annoy the posters on here, yet clearly I have done so which is not my intention.

    On football matters..is this sundays game the least hyped game v the huns in many a year? seems to be overshadowed by the goings on across the city. I also see Callum Murray is replacing Thomson as referee so Im expecting **** all but bad decisions and plenty of cheating.

    Ohhhhhh Really?
    rangers are at death's door.
    The SFA and SPL don't seem to care.

    Yet some of you're lot are still crying about refs, despite the game (For all intents and purpouses) being "meaningless".
    It's ****ing hilarious tbh.

    Meh.

    That was about one step up from "I thought you lot didnt do walking away"
    The lack of wit in this thread is worrying. ;)

    What do you expect the SFA/SPL to do so? They are doing their jobs properly but it sounds like you think they arent doing enough for Rangers. If they were, it would equate to favouritism.

    I am utterly confused by some of the latest posts in this thread and their subject matter considering what was said to me last night.. I give up trying to make sense of this....

    Easy confuse you.

    99% of mine and Eirebear's posts in the Celtic thread would be Celtic related. This would be the other 1%. 99% of the your posts would be irrelevant and/or in the wrong thread.

    Interesting defence ! As I say no logic to it. You'd swear I have a high post count in the Celtic thread reading your response! It's rarely I post here if the truth be told. You and others have little to be worrying about it would appear. Very childish behaviour.

    I post alot in this thread, in the rangers thread & the rangers in admin thread. A very high percentage is relevant to whats being discussed in the thread, I provide links to support my opinion, links to breaking news stories that other forum users might not know about and I dont lazily ask people to repeat their point of view because I'm too lazy to read back. You on the other hand...

    I'll make sure to give you a nomination for poster of the year come the time! This is the last ill say on this. I can't believe I got drawn into this childish debate. People are far too precious around these parts sometimes.

    "All intents and purpouses" (I even included the mispelling!;))

    Dempsey - you know as well as i do that there are factions within the SPL and SFA who would happily see us go to the wall, i never mentioned anything to do with recent punishments.

    That wasnt clear in the other post. Celtic had to endure this too

    I'm sure they have, as long as i've posted on this forum you'll know i have always said the SFA and SPL are shambolic organisations.
    More recently the SPL has become even more so under the guidance of Regan.

    goals from cup final


  • Registered Users, Registered Users 2 Posts: 20,529 ✭✭✭✭Dempsey


    Jackson Irvine scored a screamer

    I sound like a broken record about this but alot of those players should really be playing at a higher level than the u19 squad. They should be more involved with the 1st team or loaned out for 1st team football. Its very evident by Twardzik's interview after the match that some players are playing well within their comfort zone for too long.
