  1. I have said it before but one of the biggest problems at the club is that Seve is club captain. No drive, no motivation and no willingness to roll up his sleeves when the going gets tough. Total wage thief who should have been out on his ear a long, long time ago.
  2. It came from a very good source. I totally understand if folks think Im talking shite though.
  3. Rangers were about to offer him a deal just around the time he signed his contract extension with us. Apparently he wasnt too chuffed but he had put pen to paper with us. It wouldnt surprise me at all to see him end up there.
  4. He must of had a real thirst for knowledge
  5. Going by your logic the following have also been the best striker in the world: Kevin Phillips Nikos Machlas Diego Forlan and the following would have won the title however the award was stopped for 5 years between 91-96: Ally McCoist x2 David Taylor (he played for some welsh team) an Armenian league player a Georgian league player. Tell me, would your Greatest Ever World XI include Carlton Palmer ?
  6. Maybe when you were playing Championship manager he was but back in the real world he was not the best striker in the world. Wait a minute, are you nae from Balmedie ? I couldnt give a fuck if a Dons fan is from Northfield or Northampton, the main point is they are a Dons fan. You being a United fan should appreciate that.
  7. I emailed John today as I was pretty disgusted at the alleged behaviour from AFC. I have since had a reply. I get the impression that the Red Ultras are not being exactly forthcoming with the background to this story and what has happened since.
  8. AFC in yet another PR howler. Im not a member of the RU but do appreciate that they try and bring some form of colour/atmosphere to a game. When we are worried about a drop in attendances at the club this decision is verging on the ridiculous.
  9. Jeff Buckley - Grace One of my favourite albums in the history of the world ever. Im psihed but its still on of my favourite records
  10. I have said it before on here but to repeat, since he has become captain there have been instances where Seve trains when he wants. He will have an "injury" during the week but will miraculously regain fitness on the Friday so he can play at the weekend. No wonder the guy isn't fit, he isn't doing the training required to regain a decent level of fitness. Apparently he has been Bertie Big bollocks since Anderson left and with him being captain nobody will say anything to him. If other rumours are to be believed he isn't the most liked bloke in the dressing room either. As far as I am concerned his continued selection is one of the major reasons as to why we have lacked any real passion or spirit since Russell left. People say Jimmy must go and IMO that is not going to happen. What should happen though is that Seve should have the captaincy stripped from him and given to someone else who will at least try and raise the team. A mate called it in the pub last night: it doesn't matter whether you are going through a divorce or you share a lodge with the manager, if your not capable of lifting your team or even showing a little leadership then you shouldn't be captain.
  11. As some of you have said JC is going nowhere. He has touted his name around for jobs in England but hasn't been picked up and that is the only way he is going to leave. We are stuck with him.
  12. I could actually deal with the tactical tombola IF players were selected on the basis of form. It has been said many times on here but Seve is not fit for purpose but is still picked week in week out. He was dropped last season and we played well, he came back and we went backwards. Stevie Wonder can see that he is a major problem at the moment and lets be honest here, it could be argued that Stephen Hawking has better communication skills than Seve. What Im getting at is that though people are quick to blame JC, the main problem is a lack of leadership on the pitch. That should be the first thing that should be addressed.
  13. Seve should have been dropped over a year ago. He knows he will play whatever happens. Last season he was not training during the week due to "injury" but would then suddenly be fit again on Friday allowing him to play at weekend. Around the time of the Madrid game he was dropped and we won a couple of games on the bounce. He was then brought back and team was reshuffled, we then went back to getting beat. Im not a fan of his at all and though they may share an interest or two, JC should have the balls to so something regarding what is in effect a large reason as to why we struggle on the pitch. Im not one for throwing the toys out of the pram in regard to our performances but I will give serious consideration as to whether I will continue to waste money going to games if our on the field leadership is to be provided by Severin.
  14. JC is the reason for the drinking culture at the club. Any manager that tells a player that they are not allowed to order coffee and must drink alcohol whilst in his company is a buffoon. It really is no wonder some of our players look like they lack fitness.
  15. So why continue to have Severin as captain ? The guy does not communicate with fellow team mates on the pitch and cannot be relied upon to gee up the team.
  16. Im sure he has said similar things in the past. I wouldnt read too much into it.
  17. Couldn't believe it when I heard about this on North Tonight. Absolutely delighted with the news, never thought we could have got him on a permanent basis.
  18. The radio commentators seemed to think it was a definite pen.
  19. Severin as captain is now beyond ridiculous, the guy couldnt organise a lash up in a distillery. Though he is young Diamond shows the right sort of determination and will to win that a captain should have. I have yet to see these sort of characteristics in Seve. JC likes his own boys, the ones he can have a drink with. He has to realise that a guy who is a good craic out on the lash is by no means a good captain of a SPL football team.
  20. Almost ounds too good to be true mate.
