"Penalty to Rangers"? As of today 13th Feb'24 - 25 games have been played in the Scottish Premiership and the penalty/red card stats are thus : Sellik have been awarded 12 penalties, conceded nil and, received 1 red card. Rangers have been awarded 9 penalties, conceded 1 and, received 4 red cards. The much vaunted Masonic Conspiracy that fail failed to halt Sellik's quadruple Treble appears to be operating much in the same vein. However, the Scottish establishment triumvirate of the Scottish Government, BBC Scotland and, ra Sellik continually need a grouping to blame and be the recipient of the collective pointed finger when the facts get in the way of their preferred narrative. Rangers and Rangers supporters are necessary, so many mortgages and life styles depend upon the club. Small independent countries receive regular call outs from the Gang Hut, it is half term and the First Minister and his wife, Nadia are off to Qatar whereas RAB Cosgrove descends upon Sri Lanka. Burgeoning property portfolios aside, these brave, bold lands are ripe with opportunity. Humza can press his international credentials whilst meeting the Hamas leadership. At least he is consistent, it is a lot like being an MSP for Pollok whilst residing in Broughty Ferry. The concerns for the folks in Gaza are uppermost from a long, long away. RAB lionised Sri Lanka continually then, a corruption inspired meltdown occurred. Remember ordinary Sri Lankans were trashing the President's home whilst swimming in his pool? RAB maintains radio silence on the Democratic Socialist Republic of Sri Lanka these days. It is a bit like ra Sellik, this last week we have had two BIG stories involving both the First Minister, Humza Yousaf and his Health Secretary, Michael Matheson. Humza stated if he was not involved in politics, "I would be Chairman of Celtic". As if Peter would let him? Michael resigned his position eventually because he attempted to claim mobile roaming charges(£11k) incurred in Morocco whilst viewing his beloved Sellik, as a legitimate expense. It is the very epitome of establishment, two Sellik related inconvenient stories and the Gang Hut just switched off the amplifier. Once again, the national broadcaster abdicated it's responsibilities. Concurrently, Tam the Token ran a number of gags where Rangers players and Rangers supporters were the punch lines. Scotland's failure to defeat France in Saturday's rugby union match at Murrayfield was a VAR(TMO) travesty, "ah could not believe it, after five minutes they could not award a try then ah realised Connor Goldson was involved in that pile on". The national rugby side lose to France and it is deemed more acceptable when you blame Rangers. The comfort of the Gang Hut supersedes all, place a Rangers player into another sport, in another stadium with a different shaped ball and it runs more interference on a Government minister attempting to steal eleven grand due to his obsession in watching Sellik. Penalty to Rangers will run and run because it means Rangers and Rangers supporters are paying the penalty.

I think that's the first time I've heard John Souttar speak at length. Articulate, controlled and impressive. Comes across as a bedrock character.

There's a bunch of stuff I really like about Souttar that I don't see in our other CBs. He's great at dribbling out from the back at pace, great at zipping low passes through the lines, often skipping the midfield altogether, and he's not afraid to throw himself in front of shots to defend

Nation trained not home grown. Home grown needs to be in our youth system for 2(or 3 maybe) years between 16-21 years old.

Goldson and Balugun aren't awful at it but Souttar is different Gravy

The centre half union vote sees me go with Souttar.

what defender isn't

I apologise profusely for daring to mention it but Souttar's availability this season has been...exemplary? At least compared to his last few seasons with us and Hearts. Could be big for us in the short and long term. Maybe Clement knows what he's doing with these bespoke programs!

By all accounts there will be no limits come the summer in fairness.

Also another lesson for rangers fans in that Soutter took time to settle. Indeed personally i believe so much has to do with the manager. Look at the shite they have that was great under Ange and the improvement we have seen in so many under Clement.

Think old Roy should walk out at palace he’s done his best and he shouldn’t be taking the shit for well paid players not being able to do the simplest of things .

Soutter and goldson together have a simply ridiculous record its like 9 wins and one nil nil draw. barely a goal conceded.
