These are great times we live in if you are of my vintage. Hotels, casinos and a floating pitch to move for gigs and games. A private subway section only for bluenoses into ibrox station. A tenner for every fiver and of course Flo. Some of what we had to endure during the EBT years.
Now? A vibrant young team who feel they can, and have, stroll into ibrokes and control a game. A manager who puts our club before everything else. A man who is one of us. The club in a strong financial position, impressive in these times so well done US all, and the hotel and new complex will really force income up all year round.
Right now we are as dominant as we have ever been. ever. The most pleasing thing is we regard sevco, in a business and sporting sense, as a petty small irrelevance
and that feels like payback to us oldies.
On a wee side note, met our bluenose mate post match for a curry and a slagging, seems the talk is Pena is on 30k and Alves 40k. ED. you heard anything like that?

Was the Alves signing on fee not factored into his weekly wage as they couldn't pay it all upfront? Think Big Bruno is the highest paid player (haha) in Scotland.

totally agree jedi i grew up in the oldco 91ar era with all the shite that they were spouting.
I argue constantly wi all the man u liverpool etc fans where i live who say "how can u travel up and watch games where u know your going to win" to which they get 2 responses
1. i follow my team regardless of opposition
2. if they had grown up with that lot cheating there way to dominance they would understand how great it is to be a tim these days.

I've said on here on many occasions how bad things were during Minties reign of financial doping. One thing I can proudly say is that they bams had to work hard for every single point they got off us. Not once did we look as terrified of them that they do us now. Yesterday's performance wasn't a classic but it showed again how utterly dominant we are against them. Quite simply, they are not a good team and Mad Pedro is not a good manager.
Next time round is the time for Celtic to get a record score from them. I'll never, ever forget the time they won the league at Parkhead and their scummy fans attacking Celtic fans on Alexandre Parade. Even in victory they behaved like animals. So, every time we hump them, it just gets that little bit sweeter.

Pena is on £23000 a week and is the highest paid player at Ibrox.
