Argentina gubbed my coupon 1-1...see what happens when Messi doesn't have Iniesta & Xavi

Goodnight - Mrs E {Ed007's Note - Night Mrs E, take care.}

Mrs E, all your teams were good odds except "odds on" argentina who let you down typical. Germany and portugal draws beat me oh well next time...

Ed, what happened to your ankle? That looks a bad one mate. I bet you've got Moneypenny running after you? Take care.

Timalloy I never knew that your going through a bad patch with your health till I read a post from yourself from last night 5 mins ago. Take it easy mate.

Followfollow81 {Ed007's Note - I am an engineer to trade FF81 mate. About 10/11 years ago a pile of beams, about 8 tonnes, fell on me breaking my leg in 4/5 places and shattering my ankle. My ankle was rebuilt using metalwork and that became infected about a year ago. I had to have the metalwork removed and I am now needing ops to remove excess bone from the front of my ankle and at the back to pull muscle/tendons down to try and straighten my foot (hopefully). I always dabbled in writing so now I have all day to write/edit etc. I still have my ST for Parkhead but don't get to as many games as I like because I am still on crutches, although my seat is in the South Stand (old stand) and they let me in the main entrance to use the lifts. I have been asked for autographs a few times, people must think I am an injured player from some team lol. CFC do regularly invite me in for VIP treatment (dinner, few pints, sit with The Lions etc). My late dad was friendly with a lot of The Lions and high up people at CFC which means they do all they can to help me out, but even after all this time I still hate going out with crutches, I'm not that type of guy if you know what I mean. Hopefully the ops are a success, but my motto on it is, there is always someone worse off than yourself. Oh and before anyone asks I am not eligible for a giro ;-) 100% true.}

ED007, to help your bad ankle have you tried a "Giro Practor" ouch sorry I'll get my coat LOl Timalloy {Ed007's Note - I am not even at the physiotherapy stage yet Tim mate. It was bad enough having to learn to walk again after the initial accident, believe it or not your brain actually does forget how to walk after a while, you keep bringing your feet together rather than infront of each other!!!! Moneypenny is a wee angel though, that's twice she has had to help me through this 5hit.}

ED007, doctors say I took two mini strokes (TIA's) my brain keeps telling my feet to keep going right! walking in circles!! Timalloy Good Night {Ed007's Note - Night Tim mate, take care.}

You are a lucky man Ed. I like your motto mate. That's what my wife says all the time but that's a different story. Keep your chin up mate. I'm not being funny Ed but see when you went on holiday and went through the metal detectors did you beep? Take care Ed.
Followfollow81 {Ed007's Note - Thanks buddy and yes I did set the detectors off lol and going into clubs/concerts where the security had those mobile detectors, heavy red neck lmao.}

Ed, good health is something most of us do take for granted. When my Dad was ill, it was heartbreaking to watch him. He to was an Engineer and worked all his adult life but I felt quite let down by the NHS. It did not help when I seen the other day how much is spent on methadone scripts... (and I try to be open-minded - I work with Homeless). Really hope you get good news soon & Celtic go on a winning streak - Mrs E {Ed007's Note - Thanks, it was watching my dad during his illness that kept me grounded (no pun intended), I couldn't feel sorry for myself while watching him fighting cancer.}

Lol Ed. Goodnight everyone have a good one.
Followfollow81 {Ed007's Note - Night FF81, take care mate and thanks again for your well wishes.}

God sake ed! Sounds a sore one (where can I see a pic if the foot btw feel left out lol)

Also next time a see you at parkhead I'm goin to look out for a guy in crushes & as for a autograph lol hope you sign it ed007 tho lol

Come on you bhoys in green
Lenny {Ed007's Note - Just look in the CFC Sightings site, I posted a pic of it in there mate:

CB67

ED007 I recognise talent when I see it, unamed poster on gers site has just posted this ....

3 big companies are each putting £10m into Rangers FC in a joint naming venture. The companies an international gaming company, a famous toy store and a national newspaper have got together to rename Ibrox WII "R" The People
Unamed poster I take my hat off to you brilliant ha ha Timalloy

11 Nov 2011 20:11:44
Fact : Celtic actually wanted to sign zenden but he wanted to much money to come to us!! {Ed007's Note - Absolute garbage. Just like any rumour that says 'Fact' in it. Zenden himself and his father (his agent) said the move had nothing to do with money.}

Didn't lennon say that he chose not to pursue the signing?

WWW.WEBUYANYCLUB.COM hail hail Timalloy

11 Nov 2011 19:43:01
ED, is it not about time you reigned poor timalloy in? He is getting worse, I am actually feeling sorry for him. Some of what he spouts, makes him look about 12. Being serious, he is making a bigger tool of himself everyday. At least give him help, with some of his jokes...............poems and or songs. I am embarrassed for him. We come in peace. {Ed007's Note - I need to read the jokes too you know!!!}

Thanks for posting in unnamed bear
( naturally) my comedy will always find an outlet LOL Timalloy
PS Yes you almost got my age I was born in a leap year so my birthday is every 4 years

11 Nov 2011 19:04:56
Followfollow81 my mate has given me 2 outsiders in Gold Cup (typical of him) Tullamore Dew, he carries less weight than most, he should be about 25/1 or bigger.Other horse is ARALDUR about 14/1 who likes a fast run race. Back eachway, go to a bookies like Paddy Power who pay 4 places. Good luck Timalloy
PS forgot the colour scheme at this bookies ha ha just do it online LOL

Cheers Tim I will have a look at them. My wee grandad was called paddy. Would you believe it lol? I've never been in a paddy power bookies. Not due to the name or colour just that they aren't one where I stay.
Followfollow81

Since when has this site been into tips for the nags its a mugs game bhoys, I put this down to Miss E!! ;)
CB67 {Ed007's Note - I'm not a gambler either, you never see a poor bookie do you?}

It wissnae me...honest - Mrs E

11 Nov 2011 14:59:15

Followfollow81

I have ROI 6/5, Croatia 9/5, Scotland 13/10, Argentina 1/10, Uruguay 8/15..

Put it on in a bit of a hurry...i'll be returning to work even if it wins !

C'mon Scotland (I hardly ever miss a home game - once kids are older, i'm going Tartan Army)

Mrs E

Followfollow81 like your both teams to score coupon. Your 9 team acca is a big ask but good luck.
Mrs E, I like your patriatism Scotland to win away ha ha, hope your coupon come up. Timalloy
PS mate has promised me a big outsider for Paddy Power Gold cup Saturday if I like it i will post it LOL Timalloy

Mrs E I've been a member of the Tartan Army for the last 17yrs. I always get to at least one of the away games in the tournaments. When you do join you will love it. I was over in Alacante for the game against Spain. Spent 5 days in Benidorm it was brilliant. I would like to go to more but due to me following Rangers they take up most of my pocket money. Lol
Followfollow81

Tim post the outsider that's my kind of bet. I don't like going for fav as you can see with some of my teams in the ACC. Lol.
Followfollow81

I know you can join the Tartan Army next year...I go with my Rangers supporting pal & our 2 youngest sons (5 & 7)..including the friendlies at Hampden, we love it honestly. Was so gutted at the Czech Republic game, I could have cried. This is when the refs get it wrong it really counts. Celtic & Rangers win most things in here anyway but this was Scotlands big chance to get a major tournament. Anyway..World Cup qualifiers coming up but Wales starting to look really good..I seen Barcalona having been looking at Gareth Bale. Alicante looked right up my street lol :) Mrs E

It's just a Scotland thing (hard luck stories) we all come to expect it now. But hopefully it change in the world cup qualifiers. Wales don't worry me it's Croatia, Serbia, Belgium and Macedonia that worry me lol. Gareth Bale is over rated. Started off at left back then got dropped then Harry Redknapp was short of player on the left wing scores 3 goals against Inter Milan and now he's the best. Over rated if you ask me lol. What's your opinion on him Ed, Mrs E, Timalloy?
Followfollow81 {Ed007's Note - I think Bale is one the most over rated players going around right now, I can't understand why some Man Utd fans want to sign him.}

FF81, ED007 be honest both Celtic/Rangers would take him in a heartbeat. Timalloy {Ed007's Note - Yeah but he is nowhere near as good as he is hyped up to be.}

Do you...he's only young & seems to be getting better ?! Can seem to cover any position as well (on the left). Just under Gary Speed, they've got better. Croatia not the team they were (Samaras scored against them lol).

Did you see Kenny Miller's goal ? Can see him back in Scotland, I know my pal would love him back at Rangers. Still scoring in Cardiff... Mrs E

I hope Montenegro beat the Czech's...do not like them :(

Mrs E

Timalloy, Mrs E I'm with Ed007 on this one. The most over rated player out. Don't get me wrong Rangers/Celtic would have him but would he be a success up in our league? He is not Man Utd or Barca class. He has one good game against a poor Inter Milan team and nothing against West Brom or Wigan and he's a world beater. Well not for me I don't rate him.
Followfollow81

Barcalona 'allegedly' watched him at the Spurs v Fulham game....

Not over-rated...he has ability, speed, can score goals, defend, play anywhere on the park. What is it you don't rate ? Mrs E

11 Nov 2011 13:18:13
Unsure about this Bolo Zenden. Think he may be too old to do a job for us. hes quoted in the Evening Times today as saying "i want to finish my career with medals" but to be honest is he going to be our Ortiz? Or another llungberg?
Believeable hell do a job for us or Unbelieveable?

Celtic will be in contact with him during the weekend as hes back home with his pregnant girlfriend/wife.

I was telling my son last night how his Great U ncle William was a top class surgeon.
On one occasion a man who had been involved in a serious RTA had lost both his hands.Uncle William managed to sew them back on and that man went onto become a world renowned pianist.
Uncle William again came to the rescue after an accident where a man had lost both legs, years after surgery that man became a top 100m sprinter.
Lastly,you guessed it there was another RTA in which the man involved lost his head.Paramedics at the scene could not find the mans head so instead went into a nearby field and took the turnip from a scarecrow. That man (Neil Lennon) went onto manage c***ic.

Good Morning ED007. Mrs E and Gerry the Ger thanks for your good wishes over my hospital tests.
I am one of the lucky ones, I have received two scans, a 24 hour heart monitor and an ultra sound all within two weeks of coming out of hospital. So the much maligned NHS is working to help me back to health. Also a big shout for all the nurses who put in such long hours, but do a great job.
Finally on this day of Remembrance can I just say to Gerry the Ger, Neil T, Macca, ED007 and all who are having health problems I wish everyone good health.
Timalloy

Bloody hell timalloy am seriouse danger of thinking your orite will you stop being sound cheers .

Gazza72

Gaxxa 72 cheers mate for good wishes, you know I just post on gers site for a reaction within limits, good clean banter LOL Timalloy {Ed007's Note - I thanked you on another post for your well wishes Tim, have a look at this, but be warned, it's not pretty:
