"Tynecastle boss Csaba Laszlo wants to re-sign the Pole but has to wait until he learns the size of next season's budget."

As before, nothing gets done at Tynecastle until Nero, sorry, Romanov touches it.

Oh, and of course Csaba has to travel to Lithuania to get Romanov's permission. Just so you remember your place, Csaba...

#1 Aye exactly. Did I read somewhere Romanov was "delayed" and Csaba had had to wait another couple of days. Still, nae hurry eh no? Ayatollah Vlad needs to show all and sundry who's boss. We could be onto a good thing with Csaba this season. But watch our supreme leader drag his heels and accidentally miss out (not on purpose of course..late fax anyone?) on the more expensive signing targets. At least Hartley is not a "World Cup player" (Remember we were going to sign a couple of those?) and that might mean we can actually sign him. Ah widnae hud ma breath though. Cynical? Moi? Bitter experience I'm afraid. Go on posters! Cheer this jaded Jambo up. You have my permission to lie if neccessary!

#2 - You read correctly!

The fact that another club might entice one of Csaba's signing targets during this "delay" period appears to be of no concern to Romanov.

But apparently, according to Gary Mackay "June is, historically at least, a dead month for the game as far as signing players is concerned."

So rest easy, Young Lochinvar, Romanov has it all under control...allegedly.

They are indeed Scotland's Shame....as they sing themselves : 'noone likes us , we don't care'.

That hard core loyalist section of the rangers support - which incidentally runs into tens of thousands - complain about being branded 'Scotland's Shame' yet they revel in trampling over every semblence of social decency, and think it a badge of honour that 'noone likes them'.

Shame on those who tried to justify this anthem of racial hatred as some kind of harmless banter....tis as much harmless banter as was kristalnacht.

#15...The sectarian racist bigots who follow rfc,have no shame.It is interesting to read Mullets comments on Kristalnacht.Prior to the racist attack on Romanians in South Befast by racist thugs "many of them wearing Rangers tops",some of the victims of the racist vermin had copies of Mein Kampf pushed through their letter boxes.

Evening Pax, Dun and other Celts,

Interesting that a court of law has judged that song racist.

Now that it is legally racist then whenver it sung at Ibrox, the police will be within their rights to arrest those singing it and they could be charged with inciting racial hatred which carries a maximum 2 year sentence.

Let's see what Gordon Smith and Murray etc, have to say about it. My guess is nothing.

17 Hey Pax

Yesterday a bit of a rammy occurred between me and Daillyman. In fairness to him he admits he has learned his lesson not to discuss religion with you or I. So hopefully he'll stick to football.

Dun what I find with DM is, he likes to give it out but just can't take it back.

He tries to be sneaky with the sly digs but when anyone digs him he chucks his teddy bears out of the pram.

At the height of the argument yesterday he was really losing the plot. He hasn't shown face today because of the hurt he endured yesterday. But most of it was self inflicted. He should have just stuck to football instead of staring off the day attacking other posters.

I hope he's learned.

21 Tim

FYI I have not been online today as I was out of town playing golf. Not because of any discussion with you yesterday. Make up any excuse you like for me not online, your good at that.

As for yesterday I made a comment that your mate should leave the belief card off the threads. And you are correct I could never win a debate on the sectarian/bigotry subject with you or your mate, I dont have the life experiences that you both do, discussing the subject daily.

I'm not a great fan of the so-called "famine song" but, whatever the chaps in wigs in Edinburgh say, its intended target is mockery of Celtic fans and their maudlin songs etc - and Celtic fans are not a race.
