  1. Ramsden's crap? The guy who would have strolled player of the year if he hadn't been injured?
  2. I think they are both pant-wettingly amazing. Having them both. Bodyfit versions obviously as im a solid 10. The away is the Bologna away/3rd template from last season, which I had my eye on at the time if it hadn't been so expensive for a team that I don't care about.
  3. Big Handsome is so handsome these days, even the air gets flustered and moves out the way for him. Less resistance when he runs around.
  4. I remember walking to the ground from the car, and strangely enough it's the only time i've never felt edgy making that journey, purely because every single Rangers fan was in a great mood...they were there to party and we were there to make up the numbers. From my experience they were actually all in really good spirits, and not knowing what was to come...it actually put me in a good mood and looking forward to the game. Then they couldn't get the ball. Then we scored. I remember in the days before the wee corners were filled in and we were in the bottom tier of the Broomloan, it was common practice for the Rangers fans in the top tier to buy 2 pies and 2 bovrils, one for eating and drinking, and one for throwing, and by god did it rain down that day! The other thing that sticks in my mind of that match, was going off at half time 1-0 up, Rangers team, management and fans all absolutely raging at us...and the first song that gets played over the tannoy? Go West by The Pet Shop Boys.... 1-0...to the Motherwell, 1-0...to the Motherwell 1-0...... All of a sudden 200 of us getting absolutely pelted from above whilst bouncing up and down. Amazing times.
  5. I think that's cool as beans. Retro yer maw.
  6. First half of the season Ramsden was a stick -on, and second half of the season it's been Vigurs, but over the course of the full thing it has to be Lasley, with Sutton close behind.
  7. I must admit to being a bit pissed off to be fair. I mean...we've been so promising the last few seasons, but this year we've ended up easily the 10th shittest team in the league. Possibly the 11th shittest. I just don't understand where it all went so wrong
  8. The ball getting punted over the stand is fairly common...but Hutchy is the only player i've ever seen head a ball out the stadium.
  9. I'm quite glad about the "cutting edge" thing, because this constant retro bollocks is doing my nut in. Im assuming it refers to the Elite matchday bodyfit versions for the players...and im delighted we'll also have that version for sale. Excited to see the designs!
  10. Yeah I spotted that but no large's left unfortunately
  11. I bought a job-lot of tops from MJ a few years ago which means I have a few older doublers mate. They are in the back of a cupboard so I'll need to dig them out, but if you're able to find any pics/thumbnails of the ones you need i'm happy to have a look and see if I can help you out? On a similar note....i'm looking for the silver cash converters top in a large, and the petrol blue top in a large....ideally the long sleeve version if anyone has one to get rid of, but i'd take short sleeves.

    Stevie Hammell

    Talked about this before but Stevie Hammell has one of the best first touches i've ever seen. The amount of times he'll pull the ball out the air with his toe or kill a wild ball dead with one touch is outrageous.

    Top Six Split

    I miss constantly losing.
  14. The people that make these shows wouldn't have the faintest clue what a highlight was from a fan's point of view. I'm not convinced it's done by people who even like football.
  15. See when you're a complete wank, are you actually aware of it, or do you think you're making complete sense and it's everyone else that's weird?
  16. Aye and we put fans in the top tier because of the H&S issue of "slippery steps"
  17. Clubs would love better general atmosphere at games. In fact the only thing they want more....is points. And if making the visiting support less effective helps them get that, then that's what they will try. It's no different from Craig Brown insisting the visiting fans got punted in the top tier....yes, even we hated it because the overall atmosphere was less, but was there a single visiting support that managed to influence their side from up there? Not that I can think of. They are banning the drum in the hope that it limits the influence the visiting support can have on the game. They will be rubbing their hands together if half of us don't turn up. No drum might be quieter....but it's not half as quiet as no people.
  18. There not disallowing it for anything to do with that though? They are disallowing it because it's extremely widely known that our away crowd makes the side perform better! I hadn't even considered the thought that anyone would think it was for any other reason
  19. The only thing that baffles me more than the banning of the drum, is anyone not going because of it We all know how much of a difference we make to the side, particularly at away games (and hibs have clearly spotted this as well), so If we can turn up and then swan off with 3 points then it makes it all the sweeter. If banning the drum makes no difference to our crowd, we still turn up in our (relatively modest) numbers and dish out a humping, then they won't give two hoots about the drum in future. Whereas if the banning of the drum halves and silences our crowd, then it's basically proving they have done the right thing and will continue to do it. Mental to even consider not going because of it. Sing louder!! SIWY
  20. Agreed. half the folk on here won't be happy til they're walkin about dressed like their grandad. Although I have to say my top of choice for 5's is currently a Macron number, Leeds away...and I love it.
  21. When people ask why I don't support my local team, my answer is always pretty simple. I live in Falkirk.
  22. And he's got tourettes so he'd probably have a decent comeback.
