Pretty grim to be honest.
Dempsey wrote: » Thats some tripe you are spouting now. A match on TV and they dont put on undersoil heating for enough time with the current weather forecasts? They cut a corner and were exposed like the lack of crowd control outside the stadium afterwards, Hearts buses being wrecked as we speak
Dempsey wrote: » A picture of another pitch in Glasgow thats fit for purpose despite the weather is getting the one up alright! :rolleyes: Its not a case of having a better undersoil heating, its a case of having it on for a proper amount of time. Has Ibrox fallen to the level of Fir Park or something?? How do you protest Ashley by vandalising away supporters buses and kicking people on the ground?
Broxi_Bear_Eire wrote: » Really you are surprised this board did this. They believe it makes there point for following Ashley money. I wonder why there is a lack of security and that he spivs are happy to see these morons act like this. And let's be straight here they can make sure there's no trouble at other games. Once again I wonder why. Wel I don't really
Dempsey wrote: » Of course I'm not surprised. Its been clear in every post I made this evening. The match was pushed ahead this evening for cashflow. I assumed undersoil was on but looking at pictures of another stadium in the same city, i.e. Celtic Park, its clear that it wasnt on for the required length of time if on at all. Its not petty one up man ship, its looking at something that can be reasonably compared and seeing spivs and chancers at their finest and calling it for what it is. Also, hard to see money going from on table offers into accounts when a battle for control is slowly underway.
