...Not even on the bench for Hearts today. Ivan K says its coz Steven Banks is in a better position. But Hearts board not happy that he got a standing ovation everytime he warmed up at Dunfermline last week. He should have moved on in January, he is being made to pay now for Pressley and Hartleys moves

....Leaving his post and joining UEFA This is baffling. Its good that a scottish administrator has been chosen for a such high place but he has done an horrendous job for the SFA.

Some biggies in the EPL this weekend. Man U should have another banker 3 pts at home to Charlton but they have nothing to lose and might have a go at Man U. But the way Utd are playing it could be a cricket score. Chelsea are playing the in-form Middlesboro. I didnt think Southgate was a good choice at the start of the season but he has turned Boro round and made them mid-table and safe for now. They will make Chelsea battle for a 2-0 win. Newcastle v Liverpool should be a cracker and im looking forward to watching this. But game of the day is at Upton Park. West Ham v Watford is massive. West Ham HAVE to win. They lost this fixture in the cup a few weeks back and Curbs will be under bug pressure if they dont win today. 2-0 the Hammers and the gap will close with Wigan losing at Arsenal and Spurs winning at Sheff Utd.

Its pretty hard to counter argue this and not to bash Le Guen's management. I suppose you could say the players didnt step up to the challenge. Svensson was / is beginning to look better. J Rod came ok last season but went 2 steps back this season and Papac only had an impressive debut. But Hemdani looked assured when playing in the back 4. I think the 2 playing now (Weir and Ugo) are a little more up for the challenge and know that Rangers are a club you must give 100% for every game. They both may also know they are getting on a bot and for 1st team football they are going to have to be at there best as we now have a host of young centre halfs in the waiting. Webster and Svensson could be a long term partnership.

Yeah Joe Harper was talking out his ass - usual anti-rangers stuff. We can name a first team XI with Scots _____________McGregor___________ Hutton____Weir_____Webster___Smith Burke__Ferguson__Rae__Thompson__Adam _______________Boyd_____________ Murray Lowing etc etc And Gow, Brown and McCulloch could join in the summer

I agree its harsh on Hemdani if he is dropped but I can see WS thoughts. Plus Hemdani's good performances were under PLG. But ive a feeling all 3 will play. ____________McGregor_______________ Hutton____Weir_____Ehiogu______Murray ____Ferguson__Hemdani__Thompson____ ____Burke______Boyd_____Adam_______ Maybe Novo in for Burke

I think we'll see the best of him now But seriously i like Buffel and he has quality but blows hot and cold. He cant play on the wide positions where he has been deployed at times. Its a loss and i was kinda happy he stayed and i still think he is the sort of player who can turn a game for us. He has always been better in europe aswell.

I think they lost or it hasnt been decided. Coz i was listening to Martin Tyler during the Spurs v Man U game last week and he said Spurs are through

I think this could be utter garbage or surely we could afford more the Gow

Not according to the BBC report i read, but il take your word for it

Could be out for the season if he needs an op!

That was short and sweet. And to think some wanted him at Ibrox!! He has done nothing as a manager.

I think we could be done with a bit of marketing coz we have lost a lot of posters. The place was buzzing until the misfortune of going down. As you say Gav we will get silly jokers like Mhanks, sheep etc

Worst excuse ever!! I dont think you can use this excuse at international level especially with the host of players england have. They are normally saying how strong they are in depth but coz they get beat they com out with this crap. But what does he expect when he plays G Neville at LB, Gerrard on the left and Crouch in the squad. Crouch makes Owen look a player!! IMO they have the management team the wrong way round. It should be El Tel in charge with Mclaren the assistant

I think everyone has misinterpreted (sp) what me and Cammy are saying. We by know means tolerate violence and its worse if its in stadiums where there are innocent people turning up for the game. But it makes brings great interest IMO when reading about firms against firms from the 70s and 80s. If these guys want to meet up in some alley way and boot the crap out of each other thats fair enough. But the organising and the way they went about it with home and away battles is interesting. It was all part of there day out as long as innocent ones dont get hurt. I havent read that much but Cass Pennants first book was addictive. Unlike these days where you walk down to Pittodrie before a game and you get 10 sheep shaggin turkeys thinking they are hard jumping 2 quiet Gers fans just for walking down to the game. - Its this that bugs me as they claim the are casuals. They wouldnt last 5 seconds in the real casual world. But to bring it to games is unacceptable. It should remain fair and far away from others.

Shame!! McLaren will be in for a nightmare of a time from papers and media! I bet Massimo Maccarone is loving it!!

Italians need this to sort out there problem though. That means we have played Inter behind closed doors and they have played AC

El Hadji Diouf

Staunton should still be sacked for a 2-1 win. San Marino's average score is 5-0 defeats and that includes playing shite like Cyprus etc

Yeah but thats enough sometimes with Dado and he will still offer more than the other strikers we have now. He save the 90 mins games for Celtic

Great news :thup:

Thats right the Jack on a ship!! Remember now!!

Your right Pete, Id of loved to see Klos between the sticks again but looks like McGregor will make it

Funny you mention this. I was going to start a thread asking where "Jack" comes from again in the "Union Jack". I know it is Union Flag but gets called Jack. I knew this before but ive forgot

I dont want to read that! Is he showing his true quality now he has left us??
