Rengade Master

I do work for the hotels that the government are using and the wife and kids had their hotel room cancelled at £275 a night due to it being commissioned by the government. Don’t do MSM. Sorry

You spoke of rushing into signings not me I fail to see how it is “childish” to assert that we should not be rushing into signings right now. Enjoy your Saturday night. The whole point was we never did any last minute business to strengthen the squad! feel free to argue with yourself 🤣

Occupying £200 a night hotel rooms doesn’t matter then 🤷🏼‍♂️

My apologies I certainly have mixed you up with another Scott then!

We’ve rushed into zero signings hence my point being made! Playing the victim on that point is a little becoming of you though! Enjoy your night!

Just over 3000 last week arriving in small boats over the channel been the same for weeks! All requiring accommodation and feeding mainly Albanian where no war or persecution exists! https://www.gov.uk/government/statistics/migrants-detected-crossing-the-english-channel-in-small-boats-weekly-data

Why are you another who is hard of thinking? 🤷🏼‍♂️

Now you are talking ****e you work for Sky and get Sky, broadband and Netflix free!

Austerity was because of Labours wilful neglect of budgets! The note in the Chancellors notes saying there was nothing left was entirely true. Balancing the books is a requirement for all business and government! tacking up debt is often the downfall for both as debt and interest needs serviced! Due to the pandemic we have incurred massive debt! I hate to say it but the huge immigration issue at the moment is only exasperating the situation. No matter who is in power the self serving MPs MSPs will be totally fine in all parties! the current situation is not Tory caused they are currently the party in charge of trying to fix it without bankrupting the country. Like Greece did a few years ago!

I was talking about our bigger picture sorry I’ve had to explain that utter guff to your intellect! Sigh

Was a great win for us today and Kelty. Falkirk now have the option to rotate and tweek their selection for their next game! If/when we lose, pick up injuries and suspensions what have we got? stop being so childish and start looking at the bigger picture 🙄

Scott, I was deliberately keeping politics out of it because it is a worldwide problem not just the UK I think that has to be remembered and taken fully into account! Russia has turned off the Nos Trum pipeline this now seriously impacts Central Europe with gas rationing already being spoken about for Germany, thankfully Scotland and and have their own gas reserves in the North Sea. Unfortunatly unlike Norway they are owned be foreign companies same as the wind turbines so we are forced to buy energy at full market value!

After doing this job for 25 years, working on various council contracts and housing associations and you are sometimes in and these houses 4 or 5 times you can build up a lot of information from speaking to the occupants. also if you are doing a block of 16 flats and they are all in the same situation you see 16 different living conditions. I’m more than able to speak from experience.

Wow! I've already explained I'm still out at work everyday and spend many hours in the homes of the most vulnerable and less well off, and I see first hand sometimes next door neighbours how one person copes while the other is in a complete mess. Same flat same income different lifestyle choices. Then I can go into the poorest housing schemes in Glasgow, and see the occupants wanting for nothing having never worked in their lives, electric meter by-passed, new car on the drive. Yes I see it all still so very well placed to comment.

Ross petrol is going down, it should continue as OPEC increased production but that is a global market. All depends where you set your start point, in 2020 during the first lockdown it was £1 a litre. People do have choice, people have always had choice. How do you know record amounts of people will die this winter? Crystal ball or because the MSM want you to think this? No-one is predicting what type of winter we will have, surely that is the first discerning matter before you can predict a record number of people will die? Remember the same MSM predicted thousands were going to die a few weeks ago due to the heatwave.........

I'm happy to listen to your point, but for starters fuel has come down from £2.00 a litre to £1.65 as you say, that is almost a 20% reduction, when it went up 20% it was a fuel crisis all over the news. Bad news story scare scare scare! Energy costs are capped at £3600 per annum (£300 per month), which means the average home won't pay any more than that, it's not what everyone will pay a single person in a one bedroom flat will pay a lot less. But it is rarely reported like that. Bad news scare scare scare. Lifestyle choices in many cases are the reasons people don't have spare cash, it starts at the top the bank says 2 years ago you can afford a mortgage for £240k you immediately start looking at houses at £240k and end up buying one at that price. Then you need it to look like a show house, then you are too busy to cook so you end up eating takeaways, while you and your 3 other family members sit down on their £40 a month smart phones, flicking between netflix and Sky Sports on their 70" television while browsing the take away menu, wondering what Costa coffee they are having on their way to work in the morning. Quickly change mortgage to rent and you have the choice as to what you want to pay, where you want to stay and how big a property you choose to rent. A generation has missed out on cooking meals, good hearty meals made from basic ingredients, affordable sustainable and great fun to cook with your kids or for yourself. You can still buy 25kg of potatoes for £8.50, pork is less than £4 a kilo at the moment, diluting juice for 40p free water out the tap. People need to reflect on how they deal with the worldwide situation in their own way and it is more than possible, continual free handouts is wrong as it is only going to result in higher taxes and keep the country in economic decline. The point about the windows was to show that the older generation has seen all this before and we got on with it the best we could, the younger generation haven't. The constant negativity on MSM is not good for peoples mental health, and should be avoided and people look at their lives and work out the best life for them and live it and it doesn't have to revolve around money. I have a far bigger insight to peoples lives than most on here as I spend much of my time in and out of peoples homes all over Scotland, from refugees, housing associations, students etc up to the the best houses in Scotland. The biggest threat coming is the energy supplies to business, that is where the focus needs to be, because if they close then people lose their jobs then all the first paragraph is compromised in the stack of cards.

No we are not, we are on the receiving end of more media doom and gloom. Covid, climate change, party gate blah blah blah. Cost of living crisis is basically all part of the grand reset! As we did back in the day, you worked and worked more, you cut back and learned to live within your means. People praise the club for doing exactly that, yet bemoan the cost of living and look to point blame! I can remember interest rates at 15% and ice on the inside of my bedroom window when I got up in the morning and going to school with patches on my knees of my trousers. I watched a couple with a buggy last week outside a foodbank with a case of tennents and 2 bottles of Buckie in the bottom of the buggy and both smoking tailor made fags! I had relatives booking holidays at Craig Tara with the last government heating grant of £400 in July. I totally appreciate that some folk are really struggling to make ends meet, but I bet there is wiggle room in their budget but they are not prepared to face it! No utility company is looking for £3600 next week, that is an annual cost (£300 a month) on an average family home, pay what you can when it stabilises pay off your bad debt and reset the DD. Global markets will increase production as we will in the UK to bring these prices down as quick as we can. They have too to show Russia they can’t control a global market on gas! UK and the rest of the world need to increase that long term production to prove the point. ps fuel prices have come right down but you don’t see the media publishing it!

🤣 Dorrans ffs.

The pound stretchers version of George O'Boyle!

The final insult would be he signs for A N Other and is fully fit next week! I would not put it past him!

But to blatantly compromise the club's ability to sign players, draw a wage, not kick a ball. take all the medical care and physio then do this! 🤬

Here is another perspective obviously missed by the board totally that they are now and only now realising the magnitude of being in this league. If we are offering the best facilities, full time football and the highest wages in the league what does that say about our club that makes it so unattractive? For everyone who says footballers aren't loyal and will follow the money, well unless it's Dunfermline Athletic?

With Dorrans I actually feel direct anger to the man, he knows full well his wage was hindering what we could offer a player (seeing as the multi millionaires won't back a decent wage for a player). He waits until the transfer window closes and agrees to terminate his contract. What an absolute P****

Sorry missed that yesterday KP. No mention of Dorrans but good news on O'Hara and Wighton.

It's not love, it's merely making comparisons. They are our greatest rivals we are in the same league as them and they have shown intent. If you think we have a better squad than us then fine, but McGlynn came from our other biggest rival who have been our preforming us in recent seasons. I'm sure McGlynn thinks he has a squad their that can win the league and has a degree of back up to cover injuries and suspensions. I guess your theory will have an opportunity to be tested very soon. I think it would also be good if the club now can at least say when they expect both Wighton and Dorrans to be back and available.
