  1. C'mon Frankie - Manure fans go into meltdown when they drop a point (so do the media). So let's not use exceptionalism as an excuse.
  2. Sorry to raise an old chestnut, but I watched Liverpool last night play 3 teenagers from their academy in a high-pressure cup match. We had Cole McKinnon on the bench; otherwise no sign of our youngsters. Why? If they not deemed 'ready' (as Clement recently claimed of Bailey Rice) then why not? Please don't tell me that there is too much 'must win' pressure at RFC; there cannot be any less pressure at L'pool and ManCity who can afford to spend at will. In fact Scottish clubs in general are too unwilling to play youth. McInnes didn't start with the outstanding David Watson v us, yet we have seen the impact Lennon Miller has had at Motherwell. Even those blighters from the East gave a debut to an 18 year old last night. If our youths are really not good enough, then scrap the academy. I yearn for a Rangers team where at least half are home-grown and have been brought up with the club. The pride that young lad at Anfield felt, moving from Kop to pitch puts our 'policy' to shame.
  3. I wonder where she got that from?
  4. Had an aunt who worked for him in his cafe.
  5. Did Davie play cf? Don't remember that?
  6. Benfica! Not too happy with this as I wanted to have a run in the competition.
  7. No. Someone we can beat. Fancy Lens or another team we have not yet met.
  8. I can't see Beale getting another top job now, maybe a league one or two team.
  9. Great quote from Lee McCulloch: "Dessers misses chances, but he is ALWAYS there to miss them!" Priceless.
  10. A famous Brazil manager once said, "If you know how to play football, you can play it anywhere," in response to a rival concerned about the state of the pitch.
  11. Complacency. It's like a nervous condition; you can try to eliminate it, but it is insidious.
  12. Thanks. Was off the top of my head. Saw Scott before Willie but Ralphie was in that team.
  13. They are really feeling the pressure now. Hoped for this result but didn't expect it.
  14. I think that's all the members of the first Rangers team I ever saw live now departed for the Hall of Fame in the sky.😢
  15. Yes. I thought Clemente would be good at improving our set pieces. Maybe we need to work at sclaffing a few in!
  16. Yes. If you're talking about ice hockey.
  17. This idea comes from the prawn-sandwich munchers who have no real conception of the game. I once met a middle class 'fan'. I asked which team he supported. "Oh, I support all teams really," he quoth. No idea of partisanship.
  18. Well, Rangers could do with a 'snapper-up of unconsidered trifles'. Who is the agent for Autolycus?
  19. Was that the old Fairs Cup in 1969? I take it by 'bear' you don't mean a furry animal?🤣
