He needs to look himself in the mirror and recognize his time is long since over and fire himself. Al please put your ego away step down and let a real coach and general manager come in and turn this team around.

Apart from the total joke that is the wide receivers the Raiders actually have a lot of quality young players in all the other key positions.

I fully agree mate. apparently Al wants to fire Kiffin (ESPN - Report: Davis, Raiders set to fire Kiffin as soon as Monday - NFL)....

I'm wondering how good JMR will become once he has 4-5 games under his belt. McFadden looked like the business yesterday and as you said there are no WRs. Imagine this team right now with Randy Moss and Jerry Porter...

I think JMR looks like he has all the tools to become one of the leagues top qb's. McFadden, Buah and Fargas leaves the Raiders with as good a running game as there is. The defense is pretty solid. Plus in general in the key positions the Raiders have good young players so apart from wide receivers there is a solid core to build a team there. But sadly until Davis fires himself it isn't going to happen. Kiffin may not be what the Raiders need long term coaching wise but Davis should fire himself and hire a top general manager. Then I thhink the Raiders would be able to pretty quickly become a top team again.

Tell me, precisely how many times have you woken up at 4:30 in the morning, or even 3:30 on rare occasions on a saturday or sunday, with a raging hang over or even still plastered, just to watch Celtic play? I'm guessing not nearly as much as I have. Why don't you say the same thing to the Irish who follow Gaelic football, or even other Scotsmen who follow Rugby?? You really just came off as a huge asshat, and as someone who probably cries foul and Americans' collective ingorance and arrogance, you should take a long look in the mirror.

I love that word

and also yeah if it were up to you we would not have the famed worldwide support and we couldn't ever accept a foreign player because "they weren't brought up with celtic."

I thought the asshat was quality too. Got a good laugh at that one. Totally agree with the above post and Diegans before that although being on CT I get 2 hours more sleep:)

Those two hours would be so nice... A change from 4:30 to 6:30 would make all the difference in the world.

And back to football news, Ed Hochuli admitted that he fucked up massively, and has taken the odd step of responding to every hate email he has recieved from my fellow Charger fans.

I'm pretty sure you just lost respect from a lot of people with that post... considering almost every person on here follows another team in another sport, and considering that we have mods from Switzerland, the US, and Ireland, all outside of Scotland. And Lol at the last line, it's clear I've gotten under your skin to grasp at things outside of the argument, especially since it's a completely laughable statement.
