Perhaps WH fans will get off BFS's back then. He isn't a long ball merchant as everyone takes him to be. Very unfair on him.

Not unfair - he IS. In today's paper he moans about being labelled one - which he denies - then says "Here's a question: if the club against whom you're playing have spent ?100million more than you have but can't cope with your team's tactics who is the guilty party?"


That's a bloody admission. Not just the long-ball it's the "There-are-away-games-against-big-teams-we-can't-win-so-we-may-as-well-not-bother-too-much-and-save-ourselves-for-the-home-games-to-guarantee-survival-but-f*ck-all-else" attitude. I hope he goes.

Charles Green has told Rangers' board he intends to leave his chief executive role "with immediate effect".


Green took up the position last summer after leading a consortium that purchased the assets of the liquidated Rangers Football Club plc.


He is now the subject of an independent investigation, commissioned by the club's board, following allegations of covert dealings with former Rangers owner Craig Whyte.


Green says it's "appropriatew" to leave.


A club spokesman told the London Stock Exchange: "Recent weeks have seen media interest in the circumstances surrounding the period prior to the acquisition of the club by the consortium led by Mr Green.


"Whilst Mr Green strenuously denies any wrongdoing, he has recognised that this negative publicity is a distraction and is detracting from the achievements and reputation of the club.

Have a look at the 2nd set of stats for passes. There isn't much difference between WH and Man U for example apart from the number of short passes.

Stats schmats they don't prove anything - after all a couple of players can rack up the pass count by meaningless exchanges in harmless areas of the pitch. But stats and 'tables' are what BFS relies on too - "Look at the figures - we're not as long ball as some teams...etc etc\" -


I am not trying to present a reasoned unbiased argument like a Lawro et al - I just don't like the way things are developing. We're not Bolton or Stoke and I would rather be relegated again and rebuild from scratch than use muscle as a substitute for skill. Mad innit?

      Councillor McAsh defects to the Greens

      By Blah Blah · Posted

      Morally they should, but we don't actually vote for parties in our electoral system. We vote for a parliamentary (or council) representative. That candidates group together under party unbrellas is irrelevant. We have a 'representative' democracy, not a party political one (if that makes sense). That's where I am on things at the moment. Reform are knocking on the door of the BNP, and using wedge issues to bait emotional rage. The Greens are knocking on the door of the hard left, sweeping up the Corbynista idealists. But it's worth saying that both are only ascending because of the failures of the two main parties and the successive governments they have led. Large parts of the country have been left in economic decline for decades, while city fat cats became uber wealthy. Young people have been screwed over by student loans. Housing is 40 years of commoditisation, removing affordabilty beyond the reach of too many. Decently paid, secure jobs, seem to be a thing of the past. Which of the main parties can people turn to, to fix any of these things, when the main parties are the reason for the mess that has been allowed to evolve? Reform certainly aren't the answer to those things. The Greens may aspire to do something meaningful about some of them, but where will they find the money to pay for it? None of it's easy.

      Yes, but the context is important and the reason.

      That messes up Wales, Scotland and Northern Ireland - democracy being based on citizenship not literacy. There's intentionally no one language that campaign materials have to be in.

      TBH if people don't see what is sectarian in the materials linked to above when they read about them, then I don't think me going on about it will help. They speak for themselves.  I don't know how the Greens can justify promising to be a strong voice for one particular religion. Will that pledge hold when it comes to campaigning in East Dulwich (which is majority atheist)? https://censusdata.uk/e02000836-east-dulwich/ts030-religion
