We don’t rate the opposition.

The paean for Willie Woodburn contains the lines: We know your heart’s at Ibrox Park With the boys in Royal Blue Royal Blue features in the anthem Who’s That Team. I always thought “light” was to distinguish Rangers from the dark blue of Scotland but more knowledgeable folk say it’s derived from an early newspaper report describing Rangers as “the light and speedy blues” presumably because they ran rings round a team of cumbersome heavy-footed opponents.

While we are on the subject, I wish people would stop referring to us the 'Light Blues.' Our colours were always Royal blue; my first Rangers strip was that colour. In fact I have an LP with John McDonald singing a song called 'Royal blue.'

Steve Bloomer - 599 games 352 goals and Derby's all time record goal scorer & England International (23 caps and 28 goals)

Bit harsh. Maybe.

From today's Guardian in relation to the Notts Forest complains, it appears in England, referees must declare any allegiance to a club. https://www.theguardian.com/football/2024/apr/22/nottingham-forest-pgmol-release-audio-everton-game-premier-league At the moment officials have to declare their club allegiances and any others they have links to. This means they cannot officiate on the teams they support nor direct geographical or historical rivals to avoid a conflict of interest. Notts Forest want to add to this allegiances to account for contextual rivalries in the league table, not just local rivalries. I was not aware of this requirement on referees. If the rule were to be extended from supported club and rivalries to include clubs battling for relegation/european spots, it's a wonder they could get any referees to officiate, or maybe referees in England are devoid of any affiliations to premiership teams. Imaging if such a rule were to apply in Scotland.......

A UEFA spokesman said that it needed no lessons in corruption from Scotland.

As n aside to this European bosses have proved how bad Scots officials are by including NONE i for the Euro Nations finals.

I had awarded you your points correctly. You gained 3 points for the last match day.

An upsurge in support for Partick Thistle, Falkirk, Third Lanark.

The ref

I would stick with Balabun and Soutar give them time to form a defensive partnership so it’s goodbye Goldson

The scousers and the hammers both out of European competition but Villa through on penalties

We can only dream of gracing the field of play with sides like City Madrid or The Gunners as we’ve come to see our levels Ross County and teams like Dundee even then we’re struggling

This is the first stadium I ever seen the Rangers playing in Cathkin park home of Third Lanark
