Looks like Aaron won't be staying at Ibrox. His valuation has gone up about £1million since he came to the club on loan (due to the state of the pound), and since Rangers have (to put it mildly) fuck all money we can't really afford the £3.7 to keep him. At least we have him for two years though, its a small comfort even though Walter refuses to fucking play him despite the fact he's been brilliant the few times he's come on. I can see his point in a way, we have him for two years so take the first year to get him used to the club and get him used to Scottish football but now Valencia are saying they might take him back after a year it all just seems a little...eh. He's a good kid we need to fucking play him while we have him (and pray we can keep him).
A friend of mine mentioned last night that if we sell Boyd (worth £4m) then we could buy Aaron (against the fucking point by the way) but that irritated the hell out of me as well. Just because he's playing in the SPL he's only worth £4m (recent events aside which may, although I fucking hope not, have affected this) had he been playing down south since the start of his career he would have been worth so much more; at least £10m (still "small" figures I know compared to what most people are used to hearing).
I guess I'm just really worried about the state of my club just now, financially more than anything (as well as the usual), it seems like everyday there's something else that is getting the alarm bells ringing. That's all non-football staff been made redundant now. Fucking scary to be honest.
Anyway, in better news. Five of our boys have been called up for the Scotland squad.
-McGregor (who I think should be first choice for our number one (I'm not just being biased) because yes, Gordon is good, but McGregor is better just now. Simple as that and he deserves a chance, he's been fucking spectacular for Rangers this season).
-Broadfoot (who I can't help but just go "aww" and I don't know why). He's just...special.
-David Weir (he's 93 now but he can still do it!)
-Barry Ferguson (now, the amount of SHIT in the papers about Fergie these past two days has been disgusting. He was one of the only ones on the park on Sunday who actually looked like he gave a flying fuck about the game (a couple of really daft mistakes aside) yet he's getting slated left, right and center for not being good enough, being a bully and players not playing just because he's on the pitch (what the fuck is that one supposed to mean by the way?) Nonsense. He's the best we've got to lead club and country, hate how every bugger going starts to come out of the woodwork against Barry whenever we lose something).
-Kenny Miller (first choice as a lone striker, which is quite right and although his form hasn't been great this season for Rangers (for whatever reason) he alone has scored at least half of the national goals of the current squad.
(No Boyd obviously as his toys are still firmly outside of the pram on this one)
+ OMG two weeks untl
reima comes over to Glasgow!!! *dances* so so sooooo excited! *g* (we need to talk btw, bb, so I know what bus to get and what hours to get off work).

And i hate when everyone gets on Barry's back when Rangers lose.There's ten other fucking players on the pitch as well not just him.Well judging by Sunday's performance,Barry was the only one putting his heart and soul into the game he may as well been the only player on the pitch.

Ugh, I know right? It's fucking shocking how many people just jump on the "lets slate the captain" bandwagon. Only the week before the same people were saying how great he is. Fickle fuckers.

What is there to know about the public transport system in Glasgow? Is there a travel card or something?
From:
no subject
To be honest bb I have no idea whenever I'm there I just get on a bus without even thinking about it. I'll have a wee look and find out for you though, I don't know if there's a card that would include the bus and the clockwork orange, should be though.
From:

We could ask my hotel if I could accommodate you there in my for the night? Although it is quite expensive if you have to pay for it, £60 or something like that (includes breakfast, at least) a night. A travellodge will undoubtedly be less expensive.
Would you, by the way, be horribly against us two going to buy me a ticket for the Celtic game that evening? 0:> I have no idea where their stadium is but I have time on Saturday to walk about and find my way there.
Also, I'm going to meet an old friend on Friday afternoon, if you don't mind. We haven't met in over two years and he's travelling to Glasgow to meet me (for a cup of coffee, two hours tops, I promise).
I hope it doesn't feel like I'm just using you, asking all these questions & being all "well, we need to do this and this and this btchplz".
From:
no subject
Okay. I know where the Celtic store is, dunno if they sell them there but I guess they do. Not sure how far it would be to walk to the stadium from the center but it shouldn't be that bad.
but Celtic, bb, really?No problem at all, I'll just mooch about for a couple of hours XD
Not at all hun, not at all :)

The Celtic website says that you can but tickets "at the Ticket Office Counter (Mon - Fri 10am - 4pm)" ... which actually is a huge problem. Damnit. Damnit. What kind of an hour is 4PM?? Idiots. Who closes at 4PM? They must sell tickets at the stadium before the game then, right? Because I can't buy the ticket before 4PM on Friday. What is 'the Ticket Office Counter' anyway, a ticket service of some sort?
I can't help it, I want to see Marc Crosas, okay? :(From:
no subject
Hmm. Well...if you wanted...you could give me the money and I'll get it for you...? Yeah its basically just where you get the tickets.
I'll let you off then ;)From:
no subject
I'll try and find alternative ways, but seriously, if it was possible you did that - just as a back-up plan, I mean - I could die happy. I'm so nervous I won't get a ticket. And I want to. BECAUSE OMKJASHDKAJSHD Marc Crosas, okay. He's such a sweetie pie.
I'm thinking about hunting him down in Glasgow and using all my charms to get him to propose to me before April 7th.From:

awesome, yeah i guess i would be able to do it if you can't get one any other way. haha go for it bb XD
From:

BUT I DON'T CARE. I want him. Or some magnificent Scottish guy who listens to rock and is all tattooed
and looks a lot like Daniel AggerOH MY GOD, SARAH, I'm going mad. I hope Glasgow will be as awesome as I think it is.+ Your icon is inhumanly sexy. My hormone levels are wicked. :(

I'm sure you'll find one down there. It is as awesome as you think it is! (I'm from there afterall XD, I joke)

Oh, Sarah. In my soul I sort of hate pairing Barça boys with anyone as it feels like pimping mah bros (and seriously, Bojan is like a kid brother to me at times, I feel so motherly towards him
whenever I don't fancy him like whoa), but ... ... Guhh.This fic needs to be written.
By you.From:

Thats oh so freudian bb ;)
Hmm, yes it does but I nominate you! (unless you wanna do a co-write sort of shiznis?)
From:
no subject
& YES, we should totally co-write. I was joking when I first mentioned a fic, but srsly, it'd be perfect.
From:
no subject
It would be, something kinda different as well from what there usually is. (How do you wanna write it? Just a thought but we could do two different perspectives? I also nominate you to start it XD)
From:

& LKjlasd. I suppose I'd be writing the Marc POV? I can start, sure. Maybe even later tonight.
From:

Yep :P Perfect, I'm working till about 1am but then I'm off all weekend till Sunday night, so Uni stuff aside I'm sure I'll be able to write something too :D

and missing Bojan. BUT IT CAN'T BE ANGST, OKAY? Maybe melancholy and shit, but they're both tough guys, no?So. I'm not sure. Maybe they'll bump into each other on a few occasions (one time either Aaron or Marc would be talking to Bojan on the phone in Spanish and the other one overhears, maybe?). But it can all happen in a long-ish fic, no need to chop it in chapters if it feels unnatural. Maybe we'll just see what happens. :D
From:

Just have to see how it rolls I guess. See what we think once we've got something written :D

Things are looking up, I think?

Oh that would be beautiful, thank you so much! The other one you wrote was so lovely. ♥(I wrote a Boyd/Aaron one the other day if you're at all interested)
