The UK government decide work permits, not the SFA. There are some African countries where it's easier to get a UK work visa, and some where it's quite difficult. The real problem a club like Rangers has when it comes to academies, be they Scottish players or African ones, is the culture around the club. If Nordsjælland never win a trophy no one will be surprised, so they can blood young players, introduce them to their first team, allow them to make mistakes and learn their trade, safe in the knowledge they are only there to be developed and sold. Our support simply won't accept that. Young players will get a couple of games at most to prove they belong in the first team, then they'll be fair game for the crowd if they aren't pulling their weight. We can set up as many academies as we want, but good luck getting them first team football at Rangers.

excuse the language but Fucking loved that

Pleased with that. Dominant performance, two (actually three) cracking goals and delighted for Dessers. The boy always plays with a smile, does his best (maybe tries too hard at times), but if he can improve his finishing, he may end up a great signing. Lunny, MOTM, I don't think put a foot wrong tonight, and completely controlled the game. We Ridvan, winning me over again. Definitely a better option than Barisic, without any doubt, and what a goal. Unfortunate for Silva, should have won a penalty and Ton Lawrence's goal looked onside, so could easily have been 5-0 in the end. Can't grumble with that.

Beating the original Oirish team is always pleasing, particularly when it's so f*cking easy.

(See if this works again) Could do with another just to make sure…

What Compos arse....😀

England has a pyramid system, so going straight into the Championship is not going to happen. Other clubs and their supporters would, rightly, be against that. So if, and it's a big if, we were able to join the English league system it would be the Cumbrian Sunday League or similar, and we'd need to work our way up from there. The time to do that was 2012, I can't see it happening now. I think it's inevitable Rangers will eventually leave the Scottish league, but I doubt England will be our destination.

Nope. Veronica Lake.

Just read on facebook that he is 80 today! Legend. (Apologies if mentioned on another thread.)

Thought we were excellent tonight. So good to see us looking like we know what we're doing. Lundstram was just superb. Onwards and upwards.

A fine win. Very pleased with that. Tin hat on now, one or two of Beale’s signings now beginning to settle after difficult starts? 😳

I thought we had a shout for a pen when Silva was brought down in the box in the 1st half??

Special mention to Butland who kept them out at some moments that could have changed the momentum of the game.

Quite. Doesn’t decide the match but at some point, something like that will and it’ll be a season defining game for some team.

Great win, 3 goals, clean sheet, a few players getting a good run out. However still thought we were scrappy. Onto Saturday now, another win needed.

They just made up those lines to justify the decision they weren’t representative of the players positioning

I really like Ridvan. He makes mistakes but always gets forward and looks enthusiastic. Cracking finish for the first goal too.

0-3 at Easter Road is not to be sniffed at.

Right on cue…. Nice one Cyriel

Sterling is actually quite an improvement on Raskin - better ball winner and certainly a better passer.

You note the quality, he thinks much faster than most around him ...

An unconventional defensive strategy. Think the scene in Braveheart....

White South Africans don't really pay any attention to football. It's all rugby and cricket for them.

Doesn't matter; he can't defend the back post. Get him out, Sharon!

Such a big game for us tonight at Easter Road with our forward line selection perhaps the only uncertainty. Does Dessers retain his place or will the mobility of Silva be preferred? Hibs like to get forward so our attackers should get space so a good chance for likes of Cantwell and Matondo to show their quality. Three points a must! My probable XI:

Strange thing to focus on. Malaria is a curable disease. The Daily Record and The Sun may as well be.

Imo we have no need for another Smal left-back, would have been lunacy from the club.

Agreed. This obsession both appointing a 'name' is up there with a similar obsession within our fan base to always go for former players. Hire a real bloody coach. #comehomealfredo

That's not a partnership. That's the rich exploiting the poor. I'll leave you to decide which is which.

A village adjacent to Milngavie.

Did any of other pedestrians put a crunching tackle onto the space Willie had just vacated?

100% makes such a massive difference compared to Greegs last season

11 goals for Dessers now. Do we really need a striker? Tell you what he's just as good if not better than that Hearts boy that just misses penalties

Step up Dessers.

Great to be 0-2 up at HT, two good finishes. However we do look quite sluggish, a lot of wasteful passes. We need to up the tempo, get a another goal before this bear can relax!.

Some nice wee touches between him and Todd.

Take Tav off corners man, how can someone so good at direct FK's consistently hit the first man with his corners?

The name Anas is of Arabic origin and is commonly used in Muslim cultures; it means “affectionate, loving, friendly" or “friendliness.” The name Anas also has historical significance, as it was the name of a companion of the Prophet Muhammad: Anas ibn Malik was known for his loyalty and service to the Prophet ... Annass is just a different form of writing it. And yes, I noted the joke.

Seriously? Someone named their kid An Ass?

lol BBc so probably haha

Degenerate freaks that's all they are.

Booked my flight to France to watch it. Bring on the spoon burners
