It's simply a must win game for us. If we have any aspirations of winning the league and becoming the dominant force in Scottish football, we must start to win / dominate these OF games on a regular basis.

Only one question needs to be asked if Rangers lose on Sunday. Will he be able to strengthen the team for next season? In fact, the same question should be asked if Rangers go on to win the league. Barring abject collapse in the remaining matches Clement has done enough.

We’re conceding too many goals at home for my liking

Well around this time tomorrow we’ll have some kind of idea if we’re going to take Celtics championship a win will be lovely but i think it’s going to be a draw the thing that concerns me most is our defenders inability to defend properly and often caught ball watching like zombies let’s hope the managers been addressing this during the week. mon the gers.

Arsenal top. Come on United. (Just for tomorrow, to be clear)

Did you know that Haaland scored more goals last season than the Everton striker Dominic Calvert Lewin has scored in his Everton career 😉

That's Ellis 'not-good-enough' Simms just scored his 13th goal in the last 10 games...

Oh, I agree 100% and maybe worded it incorrectly. However, football fans are fickle and some in our support will still ask questions if we lose tomorrow. Its inevitable. Clement has somehow managed to get us in a position where the destiny of the league title is in our own hands. It could be argued that its down to Celtic regressing (they have) but we are in pole position. A defeat tomorrow hands them a huge advantage and vice versa. Crucial for short and medium term that we win tomorrow in my opinion. Lose and we're back to square one. As for investment, its crucial Clement gets his own players in and the board must do everything in their power to assist. However, automatic qualification to the CL will make investment a lot easier.

I don’t like “old firm” either. Never did. Who wants to be partners with them?

J'Accuse Humza Yousaf. J'accuse was the title of an open letter penned by Author, Emile Zola in response to the events of the Dreyfus affair. Zola addressed the French President, Felix Faure in January 1898 and accused his government of antisemitism. The letter was published on the front page of the newspaper, L'Aurore and argued the sentencing of French Army Officer, Alfred Dreyfus to lifelong penal servitude for a trumped charge of espionage was deeply flawed, lacked serious evidence and, was vexatious. Zola pointed out the secret court martial that convicted and sentenced Dreyfus did not allow cross examination of evidence and the whole exercise was more an expression of comfortable French hatred for Jews than dealing with German espionage. I watched a Sky TV interview with Scotland's First Minister, Humza Yousaf last evening and he was specifically commenting upon the reaction to the newly created Hate Crime law, "It is not a huge surprise that when legislation is first introduced, there can sometimes be a flurry of vexatious complaints. We have seen that and I say to people don't make vexatious complaints. You should desist because what you are doing is wasting precious Police resource and time". It is only last month in another TV interview that Humza on being asked as to what he would prefer to be doing as opposed to First Minister, he answered, "Chairman of Celtic football club". On Tuesday, KC Thomas Ross took to a newspaper to predict vexatious complaints to Police Scotland in the wake of Sunday's Ibrox old firm match from a multitude of non attending Sellik fans. Will Humza's fellow Yahoos desist because they will not want to waste precious Police resource and time or, will they replicate Humza's behaviour after Steven Gerrard's Rangers won the Premiership title three years past? It was May 2021, Humza was Justice Minister and Rangers had received the league trophy at Ibrox. Lock down remained in force and the players in their strips hoisted the silverware, ran down the track to the cordoned gates to show their reward to the gathered supporters then, retired to the Blue Room to sing celebratory songs. A video emerged showing the players standing on tables in a hospitality lounge singing Sweet Caroline. The accompanying soundtrack was augmented with sectarian chants and the video went viral on social media. BBC Scotland latched on, they had an agenda and the usual suspects decided they needed the video to be real. The Justice Minister took to Twitter demanding Police action and the players involved be sacked by the club. Humza was strident, he had made up his mind that several Rangers players had indulged in anti-catholic chanting. He needed to believe that RCs such as Goldson, Aribo, Kent and, Defoe had been so conditioned by their existence at Ibrox that they would chant, 'fcuk the Pope'. It took Police Scotland two days of investigation to conclude the video soundtrack had been faked. The Justice Minister had been vexatious reference the players and continued even after Police Scotland had dismissed the fake evidence. Humza refused to apologise, claimed BBC Scotland had hounded him for comment then, switched attack to events in George Square. He compounded his prejudgement on the players before a proper Police inquiry by stating, "BBC Scotland were asking me to comment on the clip but that is not the point. The point is the clear anti-catholic, anti-Irish bigotry on display in George Square. As Justice Secretary I don't make an apology for calling it out and calling it what it is". The Justice Minister was comfortable that Rangers players be tried and found guilty by social media as opposed to a court of law. Humza was in good company in his failure to apologise, fellow Sellik supporter and SNP MSP, James Dornan was bold, "I have nothing to apologise for". 125 years ago, Zola's exile in the UK lasted several months before being cleared of libel. It took five years for Dreyfus to receive full justice. The French state awarded both men the Legion of Honour. Will Humza decide to be the bigger man?

The section on Beale goes from 1:03 to about 1:08. It starts as soon as you press play. I don't think a summary will do it justice, but: Ferdinand would still recommend him, even after a couple of dodgy spells with us and Sunderland, as he feels he will be a top manager somewhere. He jumped too early. He turned down Wolves because of the personal connection with Ferdinand. (Beale knew that Wolves would be coming in for him, so there must've been a chat.) No one took a chance on Beale because he hadn't been a number 1. He was doing what they wanted, in terms of player development, etc. He always knew that if he was going to move it would be to us, because Beale always spoke highly of his time with us; unfortunately for them - and us - we came in earlier than he expected. Beale is a confident person, and the young lads at QPR bought into it; his first gig and he was really well-prepared; he had the players eating out of the palm of his hands, then they collapsed when he left.

Johnny Hubbard. What a sportsman - Football, tennis, rugby, golf, excellent in all of them.

Rangers 0 Celtic 0 48,000 arrested under the new hate laws

GvB should've been sacked sooner but Beale was not a good replacement.
