Is Arfield not kinda pish? Hun mate said he’s already the best midfielder in Scotland  He'll follow Barton and Alves as POTY.

I was working in Manchester when that happened. The stories didn't do the carnage justice. Tesco and Aldi on Market Street had to shut their doors around midday, because hundreds of huns were walking in, picking up crates and spirits and walking out without paying. Gangs of unaccompanied 10 year olds with cans of special brew smashing car windows on Princess Street. Dodging paralytic huns aiming kicks at you from doorways as you made your way home (there was nothing to indicate I was a tim, but maybe they could smell it over the piss in their jeans?) The 2011 riots were nothing by comparison. Thanks God they lost and thank God they died! Animals  the lot of them.
I may have recounted this tale before but I think it's worth repeating my Mrs and I took my 5 year old Grandaughter to Fuerteventura about a fortnight before the final, my Grandaughter got friendly with a little girl the same age, the family came from Manchester, In conversation the subject of the final came up, the woman had the idea it would be a Gala Carnival occasion LOL !! (they were a very nice family ) I advised them and anyone they knew or cared for to stay well away from the City Centre on the day off the game she said really I said REALLY ! Back home watching the carnage unfold I wondered if they had taken my advice. Never seen anything like it in my life and I hope never to again. I almost had to pinch myself to convince myself I wasn't having some strange vivid nightmare, not helped by the fact that the atmosphere was genuinely surreal. There was a real end-of-days feeling to the whole thing. I hope for their sake they stayed away too.

This the same Scott Arfield who went to the same school as Mark Burchill - St Margaret's Academy?
Arfield is a rangers fan, or at the very least prefers them over us He’s a decent player and probably a slight improvement over what they’ve got Either way, he is now or still a hun

That - the very Scottish sounding - Arfield opted to play for Canada as he couldn't get a game for Scotland tells me all I need to know.
Precisely.
He's better than what they've got, but that's not saying much.

Quoting limited to 3 levels deep
Arfield is 30 this year as well  No wonder he's taken a 4 year deal. Who else would give him £20K+ a week, knowing that his final 2 seasons are likely to be less fuitful than the first 2 purely because of age / declining fitness?
their whole philosophy is stop the ten at all costs. it remains to be seen whether they succeed, but at all costs may lead to bankruptcy. They are not worried about season 3 and 4 of the contract. One of the smartest things Fergus did was take his eye off stopping the old huns equalling our 9. Instead he concentrated on fixing the good ship Celtic up so it could run properly and efficiently.
Stopping 10 is all these idiots have to keep Sevco relevant now, and they know it.

I see Arfield is proclaiming himself a natural leader.
He won't be saying that when he's schooled by Broon like every other hun midfielder he's been up against. 
We welcome the chase ya hun bastards.

4 year contract for a guy who is 29 and relatively unproven for the wages he will command. Howlin. Stupid gullible bastards. if Aberdeen or Hibs or Hearts were signing Arfield you would say good signing. He's a lower half of the Premiership squad player. When Burnley started moving up the table, he stopped playing for them because they had better options.
Is he a step up from the likes of Pena - yes, probably. Would he get into our midfield ? No

Got a text this morning saying Barry(8) said in an interview that there are loads of ex Hun players being chased for tax payments from Hector but can’t see anything online Second text says Hector is also looking into ways of going after spouses for debt owed when assets have clearly been transferred to try and defraud. Oh I do hope this is true

TAX FALLOUT Rangers legend Barry Ferguson says aftermath of ‘Big Tax Case’ and EBT saga has left players in ‘difficult situations’ More than £47million was paid to Gers stars, managers and directors between 2001 and 2010 by Murray Group, owned by ex-chairman Sir David Murray
Spoiler: click to toggle By David Fowler BARRY FERGUSON admits the aftermath of the Rangers EBT saga has put former players in “difficult situations”. More than £47million was paid to Gers stars, managers and directors between 2001 and 2010 by Murray Group, owned by ex-chairman Sir David Murray. And last summer the taxman won a judgment over the Ibrox club’s use of loans to pay staff in a tax avoidance scheme. Ferguson was asked about “the tax situation” in an interview on BT Sport by presenter David Tanner. He said: “It’s not been life changing it’s been disappointing for a lot of the players. “There are still ongoing issues that you can’t speak about. “It’s disappointing for the players. “I know a lot of the players are in difficult situations just now, that doesn’t help. “But obviously I can’t go into it in depth but that’s what’s happened” Last July the ex-Ibrox skipper – paid £2.5million in EBT money – declared himself bankrupt with debts topping £1.4million. He was confirmed insolvent after he failed to settle large bills thought to be owed to the taxman. The long-running dispute – dubbed the Big Tax Case – played a pivotal role in Gers’ financial collapse. It ended with the Supreme Court dismissing an appeal by the liquidators of RFC 2012, formerly The Rangers Football Club plc, and ruling in favour of HMRC. The club had contended the funds should be classified as loans but HMRC insisted they were taxable earnings. Meanwhile, Ferguson has opened up on the one Old Firm game he’d love to forget. The ex-Gers captain and his friends were caught up in a scrap following the 6-2 defeat to Martin O’Neill’s Celtic in 2000. The former Scotland skipper went out for drinks with pals after the derby loss. He said: “Yeah, you learn from your mistakes. “That was after an Old Firm game. One I’ve got to say one Old Firm game I’d love to forget. “I shouldn’t have gone out. Had a few beers and got into a scrap because one of my mates got attacked. “As I said, I think I am talking for anybody here. If you see one of your friends getting attacked you are obviously going to help your friend. “And that’s what I done. But I shouldn’t have put myself in that situation. “ https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2635047/barry-ferguson-rangers-difficult-situations-tax-ebts/

Gerrard's first signing, "“I was aware of Rangers’ interest for a number of months, so it’s great to get it over the line".
ARF 'N RUNNING Rangers new boy Scott Arfield insists he can help end their seven-year wait for major silverware The 29-year-old has returned to Scotland and joined the Ibrox club on a four-year deal after helping Burnley to a seventh-place finish in the Premier League
Spoiler: click to toggle By Colin Duncan SCOTT ARFIELD has admitted he is proud to be the first signing of Steven Gerrard’s Rangers revolution. And the midfielder insists he has what it takes to end the Ibrox club’s seven-year wait for major silverware. The Canadian cap penned a four-year deal after running down his contract with Burnley. The former Falkirk and Huddersfield Town star had the option to remain at Turf Moor, but felt he couldn’t turn down Gers. Arfield said: “Of course there is pride to be the first signing. “I also think it is only going to go one way because these are exciting times and this club is going to be so successful. “This was more attractive for me. “Growing up around these parts, you know how big a club this is. “I was aware of Rangers’ interest for a number of months, so it’s great to get it over the line. “There were a few other options in England, but as soon as a club of this magnitude came in then it was something that appealed to me and my family. It was a no-brainer. “It wasn’t really a tough decision to leave Burnley, to be honest. “I’d been there for a number of years and I wanted to be part of something here where Rangers are going on to better things. “I want to show people in Scotland how much I have improved. “I think I left a good player and I’m coming back a far better one, mentally and physically. “I’m coming back as a natural leader. When I went down there I was almost like a wee boy. “If you can’t handle the expectation at a club like this then it’s not for you but I believe that I can do that.” Gerrard welcomed the arrival of the 29-year-old. However, the new Ibrox boss made it clear there is plenty of work still to be done before Rangers can even think about challenging Celtic. Gerrard said: “I am delighted to have added Scott to the squad. “He is a talented and competitive midfielder, who has competed at a high level in the English Premier League and internationally for Canada. “It’s pleasing also that we have been able to start our rebuilding process so quickly after the end of the season. “There is much more to be done, of course, as we look to build towards our Europa League campaign, which will start in early July. “Scott is the first one in and I look forward to working with him and the others who’ll be coming in to strengthen the squad.” https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2641534/rangers-scott-arfield-end-wait-silverware/

The only "difficult situation" the EBT recipients are in is that now most of their cash is in their other half's name they can't afford to get caught playing away

Got a text this morning saying Barry(8) said in an interview that there are loads of ex Hun players being chased for tax payments from Hector but can’t see anything online Second text says Hector is also looking into ways of going after spouses for debt owed when assets have clearly been transferred to try and defraud. Oh I do hope this is true
There's this from the 13th. TAX FALLOUT Rangers legend Barry Ferguson says aftermath of ‘Big Tax Case’ and EBT saga has left players in ‘difficult situations’More than £47million was paid to Gers stars, managers and directors between 2001 and 2010 by Murray Group, owned by ex-chairman Sir David Murray Pish By David Fowler BARRY FERGUSON admits the aftermath of the Rangers EBT saga has put former players in “difficult situations”. More than £47million was paid to Gers stars, managers and directors between 2001 and 2010 by Murray Group, owned by ex-chairman Sir David Murray. And last summer the taxman won a judgment over the Ibrox club’s use of loans to pay staff in a tax avoidance scheme. Ferguson was asked about “the tax situation” in an interview on BT Sport by presenter David Tanner. He said: “It’s not been life changing it’s been disappointing for a lot of the players. “There are still ongoing issues that you can’t speak about. “It’s disappointing for the players. “I know a lot of the players are in difficult situations just now, that doesn’t help. “But obviously I can’t go into it in depth but that’s what’s happened” Last July the ex-Ibrox skipper – paid £2.5million in EBT money – declared himself bankrupt with debts topping £1.4million. He was confirmed insolvent after he failed to settle large bills thought to be owed to the taxman. The long-running dispute – dubbed the Big Tax Case – played a pivotal role in Gers’ financial collapse. It ended with the Supreme Court dismissing an appeal by the liquidators of RFC 2012, formerly The Rangers Football Club plc, and ruling in favour of HMRC. The club had contended the funds should be classified as loans but HMRC insisted they were taxable earnings. Meanwhile, Ferguson has opened up on the one Old Firm game he’d love to forget. The ex-Gers captain and his friends were caught up in a scrap following the 6-2 defeat to Martin O’Neill’s Celtic in 2000. The former Scotland skipper went out for drinks with pals after the derby loss. He said: “Yeah, you learn from your mistakes. “That was after an Old Firm game. One I’ve got to say one Old Firm game I’d love to forget. “I shouldn’t have gone out. Had a few beers and got into a scrap because one of my mates got attacked. “As I said, I think I am talking for anybody here. If you see one of your friends getting attacked you are obviously going to help your friend. “And that’s what I done. But I shouldn’t have put myself in that situation. “ https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/2635047/barry-ferguson-rangers-difficult-situations-tax-ebts/
Boo effing hoo. Pay up, carrot  He doesn’t need to pay it. He’s a bankrupt columnist.
Hopefully they chase after his wife’s assets though.
