    Lalit Modi, the first commissioner of cricket's Indian Premier League, has expressed an interest in buying a large shareholding in Rangers.

    BBC Scotland has learned Modi's representatives made contact with the chairman of Rangers' football board, Sandy Easdale, earlier this week.

    The groups talked about the potential sale of the 26% stake Easdale controls.

    It is believed a price has already been discussed. And a meeting could take place as early as next week.

    Modi was banned for life by the Indian Cricket Board of Control after they charged him with misconduct relating to financial irregularities.

     

    :rofl:

  2. Whether the money heads South to Westminster or South to Holyrood would make no difference to Aberdeen.

     

    Do you honestly think that if it weren't for Holyrood and fear of losing out to the SNP that Westminster would even come close to entertaining the notion of this kind of deal to sustain Aberdeen's economy?

    Take a tour around Lanarkshire (coal mining) or Renfrewshire (ship building) and it won't take you long to figure out exactly what Westminster has planned for Aberdeen when the oil industry starts to flag.  A great big fucking 'closed' sign.

  4. I haven't seen anything anywhere else but I have heard from my mate that we have made an offer to Ryan McGowan. Neilson doesn't want him seemingly.

     

    Apparently United and Coventry have also made offers to him.

     

    Take it with a pinch of salt until it is confirmed though I suppose.

     

    Signed for the Arabs.

  5. Don't concern yourself about me. Ask yourself where the ire towards you derived. Introspect. And if as I suspect you have the shit job that is stable and boring and a life that is bare minimum acceptable to you without risk and bereft of excitement, just appreciate how even a handful of words reveals deep aspects of personality.

     

    Bollocks. You're just permanently angry.

  6. Stunning fail.

     

    You couldn't have put it worse if you tried. It was your lack of empathy more than anything else, your inability to appreciate how it may have been received by the OP.

     

    Either it was an epic fail or you're a fucking liar. I couldn't personally give a fuck either way what you are. I just can't stand seeing a poster on any AFC forum behaving like an OF type thick bigot towards a fellow AFC. That was wanker behaviour. From an apparently middle class pretendy intellectual type wanker. The type of wanker who's sair needing the smack in the pus he's nivver had his hale life.

     

    Christ on a bike.  It's just as well you've got Donstalk, otherwise you'd be kicking the dog right now.

  7. What sort of mindset engages energy to express apathy?

     

    And without the slightest trace of humour, what was the point?

     

    I suppose the point was to express exasperation with the national predilection to obsess over the minutiae of every action of the old firm, as I suspect we're he at any other club nobody would be thinking twice about anything mentioned in the original post, especially when we are riding so high.

     

    In terms of humour, it was intended to be a somewhat lighthearted and throwaway remark. Perhaps if you didn't recognise this it's because you take yourself far too seriously to be able to consider that possible.

     

    Inform or entertain? That's the only possible objectives of discourse on forums such as these.

     

    Are you as much of a sad act wanker in real life?

     

    Inform, entertain and apparently abuse.  Feel better that you got all that off your chest?

     

    Rhetorical. You managed to illustrate your sickness perfectly in one post.

     

    :wave:

  8. Well you're entitled to your opinion nellie but I hugely disagree.

    I'll say this though, can you imagine how fergie would have reacted had an Aberdeen player behaved in this fashion?

     

    Paul Scholes is a massive Bolton fan, and used to go to their games on a regular basis.  I'm pretty sure Fergie would have had more important things to think about.

  9. Not really taking the context into account there nellie. Direct rival, clearly a guest of a player of a direct rival, self confessed celtic fan and reportedly seen celebrating direct rival scoring.

    Unprofessional.

     

    Trivia.  From start to finish. And not worth 5 seconds of McInnes' thought.

  10. So you regard a senior player behaving in an unprofessional manner as trivial nonsense?

     

    I'm glad you're not our manager.

     

    I disagree with your premise that it was 'behaving in an unprofessional manner' to go to a football match on his day off.

  11. Please, enlighten me, what would you do instead then?

     

    Concentrate on repeating doing what we've been doing for the last seven weeks, and pay precisely zero attention to trivial nonsense being turned into an issue solely by the nature of the collective stupidity of social media on a slow news day.
