Taunting of the worst kind, everyone knows the the huns are pot pourri people. Candles are a step too far and I imagine king will already have instructed police Glasgow about which charges he expects to see.Quote:

Au contraire, Rev Ian Paisley made a whole career out of his rallying cry of "No Pot Pourri!"Quote:

Another JJ article but its the reference to an article by Hannan that caught my attention.
The jurno seems to be equating the Rangers 1872/ Sevco saga with Hibernian Football Club stopping playing for a bit in the 1890's and restarting .
We were a football club then and the same club restarted with a new committee in charge. Nothing like the Sevco situation IMO anyway.
A quick google search does not reveal much other than we ran into financial difficulty and ceased to operate for a short period of time. I too would dispute anyone should equate our financial problems to the financial doping and tax avoidance possible evasion of the old Huns. Certain its ridiculous to mention it in the same paragraph as the old Huns.Quote:

I think much of our toil and turmoil around that time came as a pretty direct consequence of actions of Rangers' best buddies from across their city.Quote:

They tried to merge them with Senegal at one time.Quote:

Bobby Flavell was my favourite player in that team. Classy...which meant that he played 1 good game in 3.Quote:

Especially as it was in 1887 which directly led to the formation of Celtc 1 year later! All together now, if it wasn't for the Hibees you'd be Huns!Quote:

So, when Celtc were due to hand the money over for the tickets they sold their fans for the last game at Ibrox, they did so... minus 35k for the unpaid repair bill.
The Rangers are now planning a tit-for-tat measure for the next game at Celtc Park, for damage they allege Celtc fans did to Ibrox at Hogmanay
Easy answer here is for Sellik to charge Sevco for tickets up front!
I liked Bobby Flavell too. He was a decent player for us.Quote:

My hazy memory tells me that he maybe took his own life.Quote:
