League Cup 2017'18 Next: Celtic F (Hampden) 26/11/17 15:00
Villageman replied to gdalli10's topic in Club Chat
Wasn't serious about bombarding Flow with complaints but wasn't joking either that it is a poor deal for those pledging WS members who are not ST holders. I agree ST holders deserve priority but surely WS members should not be lumped in with the sale to general public many of whom I suspect have never been to FP in many years. Is this the way to encourage further investment in the WS?. -

Indeed.Should all of us in this category be bombarding Flow with messages of complaint. -

Does it really matter who the referee is?. From Saturdays display it looks like Collum, Thomson, Clancy, Madden and Beaton are the tutors at their coaching college of incompetency. -
I know what he means by the calculation!. My question is why deduct the original fee of 400k from any later fee thus reducing the add on value to us. In other words a xfer fee of £2.5m with add on of 10% is 250k AND the original 400k should not be deducted. Precisely why it is called an add on.
-
Why should the original fee whatever that was be deducted from the add on amount?. Example: Sold by well for 400k plus 10% add on. Sold later for 2m add on to well 200k deduct 400k result zero and it could be argued we owe money. On your thinking add on would need to be 40% just to break even. Tell me I am wrongly reading your post.

Mfc Podcast ‘Off-Air 3’ – 25 Greatest Mfc Post-War Players
Villageman replied to AndyRoss's topic in Club Chat
I digress but this reminds of a story of all those years ago. I had just been demobbed from the Army before starting work. An Uncle at the time had a decorating business and a contract for Fir Park. I went along, this uncle did not appreciate Hunter and said so in front of Ancell. He replied that the problem Hunter had was like a good snooker player, he was three moves ahead of every body else in the team. This reply had a few expletives added in and boy could Ancell swear. At the time I had not even heard that amount of swear words in one sentence in the Army. -

As i've mentioned before I can go back to early 1950's, most of my top ten when given a lot of thought will probably be from the earlier period. I can think of only a few exceptions in the later period that match the Paton, Redpath, Aitken and the Ancell babes all round skill level. But then the younger element would accuse this old codger of saying everything was better in my day. -
Because Steelboy does not rate him!.

Hope he ditches the back 3 plan. Anything Tait did on Saturday could have been done as part of a back fourr -
Agree Dembele was against Stirling, but they were evenly matched at Livingston. Just shows worries should not be based on 45 minutes showing. If that was the case you should worry about McManus, he was by far the poorest of the centre backs on view over the two games.
-
May seem like a silly question but just for clarification. if say say you have pledged £20 for 24 mths = 480 you will qualify for the rewards in the "steel" category and the "pre steel" Answered as well. Fingers smarter than brain this morning.
-
What? the shy or the defending.
-
Just my opinion. That information should only be available to members of WS and not divulged on any forum.
-
Am I being naive?. The WS own/are the Club. The income pledged or other is to "support" the Club. The only concern is that the support is not misused and it is up to the members to ensure that this does not happen.
-
No i don't know him. Watched him play a few times and impressed. Not just my opinion either. By best signing I meant in 3 or 4 years from now. Maybe my comment was too subtle for you.
-
Could turn out to be one of the best signings this transfer window.
-
I stand to be corrected but in the Robinson interview after the Tanner signing did he not say he could play "behind and across three strikers". 433 or 4213. perhaps?.
-
Since he has been injured most of the season he maybe just manage to WALK into our team. Noted thats why he has been released.
-
Ya Bezzer. I am not surprised you missed our best performance when you turned up on Wednesday. you were 24 hours too late.
-
Depending on quality all the replacements expected we will probably miss him. on the other hand has that statement not a repeat of previous years?. On the plus side if true we will not have to wait until 48 hours before season starts for a decision and then a further 3 or 4 weeks to get fit.

Coventry!!! just relegated to L2. Must be for money not ambition.

Only one former pal giving his opinion and yes we have a crap bunch of refs. I would like to see all SPL managers rate them 1 to 10 and publish the results. -
