I’m not going to any non season ticket games until that fraud bastard is out the club. I was considering buying the Europa League package but forget that.

I’ve been through good times and bad and honestly Saturday was amongst the worst. It’s the hope that kills you… I like to think I’m quite level headed when it comes to football and I know where we are in the grand scheme. For once I believed this was the dawning of our brave new world but RM was a huge mistake. To not have sacked him now is just staggering. For me there is no way back for Martin. As soon as he had a dig at the support that was it for me!! Arrogant **** of a man!

Patrick Stewart and Kevin Thelwell need to get the next manager call right. For the money we spent on Antmann and the lad from Everton we could have signed Sima , proven at the club, Cerny proven at the club and the young lad from Hibs who is proven in the league

Your board seem to be taking a leaf out of our book. How to fuck things up by not really trying. We are the best at that. Although, your lot are only slightly behind.
 
Seems to be an awful lot of hysterical outrage over this team building day the Rangers lads had up in Loch Lomond yesterday. Thoughts @No.8 ?

Think it's way over the top. Taking one day out at the start of the week to get everyone together outside of football and try to build a bit of team spirit is not the end of the world. Still 4 days left in the week to put in proper work on the training pitch (a bigger concern whether that will happen or not) before a perfectly winnable cup game at home at the weekend. It seems like it's being used as yet another stick to batter Russell Martin with, but I don't see it as a bad thing at all. If we get beat again Saturday it won't be because of a cold water dip and a walk up a hill 5 days prior to the game.

Shark! Shark!

After, it's a workshop on necklaces made out of shells and pebbles.

Everybody leaves with a Kaftan, apart from Russell, or Sensie, he has two already.

Not sure you’re going to like my thoughts : ))

As a regular hill Walker and one who has done Conic Hill numerous times I’m struggling to see why he thought it was a good idea. They have recently put down Rocks from halfway to the top to help with erosion which has caused many ankle injuries. There players there with trainers on FFS

It’s where I had a wee health scare in May ( although I was doing that whole WHW section) Amazing views over Loch Lomond and the Highland Fault Line

No matter what happens now I’m never accepting him as a Rangers manager. What he’s said about the support was a step too far for me.

He’s learned nothing.

He’s an arrogant **** of a man.

Blaming the players. Blaming the crowd. Blaming the officials. Laughable stuff.

I’m struggling to think of anybody involved in football I dislike more at the moment.

I just cannot get my head round why he thought his possession based football was going to work here.

I’m just counting the days until this arrogant piece of shit is out my club and we can move on

......so you're basically saying, that my first post/reply to you, before the season started, telling you why 99% of the Saints fans wanted him sacked before the start of last season......was 100% bang on accurate! ;)

Neil Lennon? Scott Brown? Chris Sutton? Henrik Larsson? Rod Stewart?

The list would be a long one, I'm guessing!

Surely it goes without saying other than literally anybody associated with them

Nah fair comments mate if that's your experience of it. I've never heard of Conic hill tbh so have no knowledge of it but I've done plenty of lake District hikes of varying difficulties with trainers on and never had an issue personally. Obviously I'm not a footballer but my legs are critical for my own job as a postie.

Maybe theres a subconscious devil's advocate in how I've seen this situation given the widespread derision that it's attracted. Ive got into this with a few of the FF guys today about it. I gather I'm in a minority in really not being that moved by it and can stretch myself to understand why it happened. I think there are a million other reasons to hate on Martin for the job he's done so far and the stick he's taken for this is just a symptom of that. But it's pretty low down the list of justifiable reasons to rip into him, for me.

Don't get me wrong, I'm with you in that the sooner he's gone the better. I just think this situation has been blown massively out of proportion by a lot of people.

I was willing to give him time as he talked a good game. He said he’d learned from previous jobs etc etc etc.

He has learned nothing. Anybody at Ibrox could have told him his ‘horseshoe’ football simply doesn’t work!!

I’ve been racking my brains trying to understand why he hasn’t been sacked and I’ve not been able to find much in his defence . Playing devils advocate here as I don’t believe this but ….

Dessers a few inches out against Dundee at their goal it’s offside

Dessers a couple of inches out and his ‘winner’ against Dundee stands

Couple of inches and Souttars header stands against Celtic and we win that game. A couple of softish penalty shouts go our way we win that game

Referee does his job in Hearts game our goal stands and theirs doesn’t. Hit woodwork three times

Celtics deflected winner v St Mirren goes wide. They lose Old Firm and they don’t get the soft late penalty against Killie the league looks completely different

All of the above is the fine margins you live and die with in football.

Then again ‘If yer aunty had baws…..’

If you’re in the area do Conic Hill. Views are stunning. You can do the long route Drymen to Balmaha via conic hill.

Rangers went from Balmaha car park up and down. I’d also recommend The Oak Tree Inn. Last time I stayed there Matt O Riley was sitting at next table for dinner… His girlfriend was just WOW!!

If you’re young enough I’d recommend the West Highland Way. 100ish miles but if you get the weather it’ll be the best 5/6 days you’ve had walking

Doing a couple in the Lake District this December. Health and Weather permitting

I have been to the oak tree Inn before actually now you mention it tbf, me and the missus stayed in some little lodge on loch Lomond waterfront a few years back. Proper nice area but we stayed near the water rather than do any kind of hike. Will defo do Conic hill it next time we're there though, she's much more of a walker herself these days especially since we got a dog.

Where you going in the lakes? Buttermere and Helvellyn my favourites when I head that way.

Was at Buttermere last year. There was some paragliding gala going on. Had a great wee walk all round it. I’m sure that’s where the 6 RAF Typhoons flew through the valley. We were staying at Lodges near Greystoke. In fact it was the weekend of the OF cup final when goal was chopped off and Idah scored late winner. City v United final same day

We are staying either in or outskirts of Keswick. Brother in law has booked it.

Start of Conic Hill is the Car Park at Oak Tree Inn

Just read FF. you’re holding your own lol
