Meanwhile, flying the flag for the chip butty eaters, the Fat Penalty-Taker managed to score his first league goal for Bisto FC. 6-1 was the final score and, of course, we're hearing all the 'coming down the road' shite again. Raith Rovers aren't exactly world-beaters and, like Ross County, weren't really going to put up too much of a fight, especially against Bisto's team of overpaid prima-donnas!
It's pretty safe to say that Bisto FC won't be coming down any roads unless they get more money, and fast. Sooperally yesterday called on Ashley and King to put aside their differences and get together for the good of Ally's pay cheque. He's getting worried now; if Ashley does take over and Wallace is ousted, then the worst manager in Scotland would soon be shown the door. Meanwhile, if King's mad scheme was accepted then Ally's penny shares wouldn't be worth much more than what he paid for them. He's hoping that if they got together then they would cancel each other out but still put their money in. He says of Ashley and King:
"...both men are extremely talented individuals in terms of business."
Er...I don't know about Ashley but King is nothing but a crook. If you're going to use King as a yardstick, then Craig Whyte is an 'extremely talented individual in terms of business.' After all, he's made money and avoided jail!
It's not going to happen, Ally. King is full of shite and nobody has yet seen the colour of his money. Meanwhile, Ashley is out to squeeze as much cash as he can from his association with Ibrox. Still, you should know all about that since you've been travelling First Class on the Gravy Train for the past couple of years! Now here's a suggestion, Ally, if you're that desperate to bring funds in, then why don't you and all your cronies pay back those loans? Oops, sorry! I forgot. That would only be wasted in paying back all those creditors you shafted!
While I was reading up on Garngad it was almost impossible not to get caught up on blogs and Facebook pages about Garngad/Royston these days. Just like a hundred-odd years ago, there are still extremist Protestant groups that think it is their business to harass folk and dictate what they can and can't do. Strangely, these groups, like Vanguard Bears and Regimental Blues seem to think that they are victims and that their 'PUL community,' if there is such a thing, is being persecuted. I found the following statement by a woman on IMDB of all places. It's all about America but the sentiments, or, rather, the facts, she talks of could equally apply to Scotland.
"Let us remember our playground lessons, shall we? When you have had the ball all day, someone else getting to have the class ball for even a short time is not persecution.
Christians are not persecuted in this country. They are the majority of citizens. They are the majority even moreso in public office. Heck, there are 6 states that have laws on the books (completely unconstitutional laws, mind you) restricting atheists from holding public office.
Not getting to have your way all the time is not persecution. You are not being persecuted by not being the state religion. You are not being persecuted by not being allowed to have the government spout your prayers, your holy book, and laws based on your morality.
Persecution would be not being allowed to buy your books. Not being allowed to get the bible in the public library. Not being allowed to worship openly. Not being hired because of your religion."
At last things have sorted themselves out and both versions of my new book are available now.
