The nations league is just a big leagie of friendlies. It is not - it is a qualification route to the Euro finals.

Bobby Hope if anyone remembers him.

They are Nations League games not friendlies.

Hearing today that the 2 may sue Rangers for 100K. I cannot understand why some of our own would financially harm the club. They surely cannot need the money, as I would have thought that any fines they received in the first place would not total that much. To see their names vindicated surely should be enough.

You wonder if we might get him back one day. If we do we will likely be getting a better player.

Cicadas - midge type insects

i've never heard that suggested about anyone before - the early kick-off. How do you explain that?

The ref was very close to the incident; he is not going to listen to a linesman who is 40 yards away, only if he is in a similarly disadvantageous position. It was a mistake, not corruption - he booked Brown and didn't send McGregor off which many others anywhere might have done. BTW Willie Miller thought both Ajer andMcgregor were at it.

In a nutshell.

We knew their weakest point was the defence, yet we opted not to test it! SG must take some blame, surrendering the midfield.

Well, SG himself poured scorn on the jet lag theory after an earlier round. Modern athletes and fitness and so on...

You cannot explain it away like that; they had a game on Thursday too, one in which they were under pressure to perform.

SG has always been saying he will never look to just defend; can't believe he has us sitting so deep.

Coulibaly wouldn't have stood around and watched. These 2 shat it I'm afraid.

You're too late mate. I broke that news an hour ago!?

We're not coping with them down the left. Looking like a mistake to omit Candeias.

Just get to half time goal-less.

I'll settle for a draw. Horrible to suffer our first defeat (and it will come) against them.

And we've just signed McAuley! (till December) .15 players in now!

I don't see why not; the English on the whole see their country as England, not Britain. Scotland is regarded in the same light as say, Yorkshire. The UK as a concept is long out of date.

He's not the only one who can be sold for much more than we paid viz. Katic, Barisic, Goldson, Grezda for a start. We could yet get a Dembele/Van Dyck-type sell-on.

It doesn't scan! However, appreciate the sentiments.

Delighted to see him recognised but don't want to see him play at the moment as it's too much demand on him . Think his place may be at right back: central midfield is well covered with McTominay and McDonald from Fulham, also McGinn. Looking beyond, I think a central axis of Jack and McGinn would be a great sitting two.

That is an absolutely fantastic preview Frankie. Don't think I can disagree with a single word you wrote. Regarding SG as manager, it may well turn out that he disproves the old perception that great players don't usually make great managers (think Bobby Charlton, Roy Keane, and many more..). I've been watching the progress of Frank Lampard - similar age, status and expectation - and he seems to have had mixed start. I feel the same as I did when Souness came in 1986.

What would you do with Lafferty then?
