Reminds me of a documentary I saw a few years back where they set up outside Parkhead and were asking people to name fruit and veg. Half the folk had no idea what a pineapple was!

Sorry, but who are “Glasgow Rangers”? Never been a team by that name play in the Scottish league so why do you refer to them as that? -

I think we'll be spending a decent whack, and Naismith will likely continue to explore the local market. We can bully the likes of Dundee into sales if we wanted to. Will we? Let's see. -

Wow !!! And yet I get called mr flip flop !!! Well I never !!! -
Thanks. It does answer my question about who Marshall thinks RCP polls are "juicing", and it demonstrates your own views in agreement with that. I don't read RCP's stories, and their headlines, like most headlines, are just patterns on the wallpaper of the Internet. I just read their polls and their overall poll tracker. Likewise, I just read the same stuff on 538, and I don't pay attention to their "prediction models" because they're just opinion packaged as science, no different to the Guardian telling me how it thinks the last couple of weeks of the EPL season might play out. I just read the numbers. Reading those numbers, there's a regular enough occurrence over the last 10 years where RCP's polling at the end of a cycle has either underestimated the margin by which the Republicans went on to win, or else overestimated the margin by which the Democrats did. That seems to be less the case for 538's poll tracking. There's a hint of the opposite happening in their case, but I haven't looked at theirs as closely. If RCP's polls are GOP-leaning, and 538's aren't, then how come RCP's poll tracking has been more likely to overstate the performance of the Democrats? You said yourself that RCP "always seem to rush to include polls that are good for Republicans and come up with a shifting goalpost when including ones that are bad for them." Yet they still have tended in recent years to underestimate the GOP's performance. That does seem like a pretty ham-fisted way of bigging up their favoured side, surely? Don't take my word for it, you can look up the polling records yourself, and RCP brazenly put the actual election outcome right beside their final poll tracker so you can compare them in an instant. I'm still waiting to see if I can safely rest my case about the impossibility of getting neutral observations from American observers. I live in hope that it's more possible than I think.

Doha airport/connecting flight advice (if anyone's had it)
Bungalow Bill replied to BudgeUp's topic in The Shed
Assume it’s Hamad Interational airport you’re flying in to, and not Doha international. Hamad is a great airport, it’s easy to navigate. Like others have said ask the airline about your baggage, if the flights were booked on the same transaction then I’m sure the bags will be checked all the way through. For security, regardless of the airport just be prepared is my advice. I tend to put my belt, phone, watch etc into my rucksack as opposed to having to deal with lots of loose items at security. -

Summer 24 Transfers - Vargas signs 5 year deal ( updated )
OTT replied to Juho_Makela_Goal_Machine's topic in The Terrace
I just want to see us using money wisely. Boaking on paying domestic fees, whilst wasting money on the likes of Kio and Tagawa is kind of offensive. Especially when players like Cameron, McCowan & Armstrong are availible. Assuming we sell Cochrane & get the European money, we could be taking £7/8m all in from that. Fair enough, we won't get the Europe prize money until the end of next season, but we should still have enough freed up from Cochranes sale to at least bring in one of Armstrong or McCowan. Even if just for 12 months, a front line of Shankland supported by McKay, Armstrong, Dhanda & Spittal is the best attackers in the league outside of the OF. But I believe Armstrong is the difference between a good attack and an excellent attack. Oh and if we did get Armstrong, we'd see the end of McKays/Cochranes corners which I can't see the end of quickly enough. -
