The only cliff relevant to them at the moment is the one Ole's about to drive off.
Ole's at the wheel. Long may it continue.
Best thing that happened was him pulling back from the brink last year. Long may he live to watch us win more trophies and watch his evil empire crumble.Fixed.
Actually I totally agree with you. It's something I've been saying for years. Whoever takes over they will always have that sense of the unwritten law 'must please the Govan despot' around the place. If a new manager comes in and wants to sign a player he'll have to have the approval of the Pisscan first. If a new manager wants try a few things out on the training ground the Pisscan must run the rule over it first.
It's a dilemma for whoever takes over at the swamp. If he's any good the evil lord will be watching to ensure he's not TOO good. The last thing the bacon-faced bully wants is someone to usurp him by challenging (or even bettering) his legacy. That way he'd lose his self-created aura of invincibility. But a manager who will come in and just keep things ticking over nicely, maybe the odd trophy here and there, regular Thursday night football for the plastic lemmings. I mean, let's be honest, their days as a regular member of the top 4 are over, if only for the foreseeable future.They've become bit-part players in a major Hollywood blockbuster, just minor members of the supporting cast on the world stage.
But this would be sufficient for the alcoholic tyrant because he'd still be the undisputed king of the big fish in the little pond scenario, a situation that would suit him until the grim reaper comes calling.
He could give them a couple of Pointers.
But he'd be hounded out, eventually.
Fixed.

I reckon Ferguson is still meddling in the realms of the club. In what capacity I don't know. But he's definitely still playing a part. No way could someone who brought a club that much success sit back and watch what is unfolding in front of their eyes today, without having a say!I'm not sure how much baconface is a detriment to the manager. The choirboy's big handicap is Woodward, who knows fuck all about football, but loves making money for the Glazers. Not sure a DoF will help them while they have these greedy owners and an ignorant CEO.
Long may it continue !
