Probably the same folk that did Da Luciano's, Vincent Marini's place and Jennifer McLeish's car. I'm not convinced it's strictly football related.
There’s a connection between Liewell and them?

Are you and Column a double act
Or are you part of the corrupt Fab Four: Collum, Clancy, Roberson & Walsh

Closer game than we’d have liked because we’re not creating enough in the final third despite all the possession we get.

Aberdeen will be cockahoop after Saturday and will fancy their chances it’s going to be a bruising ninety minutes I suspect the referee might have to sharpen his pencil at half time.
They’ll turn up tomorrow alright. And Don Robertson is referee which worries me. I just can’t forget our goal he disallowed against the yahoos at the start of the season.

Beale was an over-promoted coach

Interestingly, as I was doing a quick skim through their annual report, they list obtaining/retaining the safety certificate for their stadium as one of their principal risks and uncertainties. Take from that what you will.
How they get a safety certificate for their North Stand is anyone’s guess. The very narrow passageways between the stand & the cemetery wall are a death trap.
plenty for an investigative journalist to get his or her teeth into there I’d have thought

Don’t forget too that when the Stade de Gadd got rebuilt nearly 30 years ago the cheapest materials were used including Bulgarian steel was it? Maybe some of these materials reaching the end of their working life. Could be a new or rebuilt Stade de Gadd May be required

It’s vital we keep Butland at least to the end of the season anyway. Whether we can keep him beyond then I’m not so sure. There will come a point when we & him get an offer that one of both can’t refuse.
It’s therefore vital we keep an eye on the goalkeeper situation for next season. We need to keep an eye out for a potential new no1 as I don’t think McCrorie is ups to the job

A Fire without a Chimney.
Peter does NOT tolerate Sellik problems being vented.
The weekend saw the kindling assembled being lit by both Sellik admin' staff allied with favoured Sellik-minded Journos. The flames grew and the Podcasters were articulating the thought that something was rotten within the state of Peter. Of course, the biggest Sellik vlogging site is the PQ Gang Hut and they were on the cusp of picking up the bellows. Peter acted to douse the the fire and stop the necessary supply of oxygen.
Today, there is barely an ember glow. Sellik stories are dominated by tranfers our ie david Turnbull, James McCarthy and, Gustav Lagerbielke. The Daily Record's Michael Gannon is another trusted shill, he has a piece today setting out the way ahead. The rarified air no longer crackles. Stephen McGowan and Ewing Grahame will be pulled in later this week for interviews without coffees and chairs. The will be informed they must live ra Sellik reality, they will not be aloud to effect it.
McGowan and Grahame opined the £70 million in the bank and, highlighted the wealth available to this season's title winners from the revamped, bigger Champions League. They identified the spectre of Clement and extrapolated, "Rangers will throw every penny at it" combined with McGowan's heartfelt plea, "Rangers will do everything to win this title by hook or by crook". Whatever does he mean? Chris McLaughlin and Peter Martin are not fanning the flames, they know the reality. They have appeared before Peter, dropped their breeks and, took their sans lubrication punishment.
The reality at Sellik is a distinct dynamic, three seats of power. Dermot Desmond is the majority shareholder but is an absentee landlord. Peter dominates Scottish football from Sellik Park whereas, Brenda is confined to Lennoxtown. Is Mark Lawwell carrying stories from the training centre back to his Paw? The Sellik family might want to be told.
As the smoke clears, the one certainty all Yahoos can absolutely rely upon is Sellik's next game is against Aberdeen. Three points from six goal margin victory is guaranteed. Perhaps PQ Gang Hutter, Big Dick will utilise his Aberdeen Press and Journal column to further soothe worried brows?
One wonders what happened hat supposed £70m in the bank is for? If it exists at all. Maybe the PQ gang hut could ask

The rumour mill was being heavily cranked by Sellik admin' staff on Saturday evening.
Brenda did his after match presser, complaining both bitterly and pointedly about the state of the pitch. Apparently, this was a dig at Peter who decided to cap funding on pitch maintenance. Brenda has participated in a running feud with Mark Lawwell since Peter's mini-me insisted upon signing Liverpool's Phillips on loan. Further, Mark and Peter fail failed to secure the services of Liverpool's Owen Beck. Brenda was pyoor ragin' and headed off on an errie tae Chamonix. Brenda does NOT ski.
Desmond does ski and Brenda traveled to put his case.
BBC Radio Scotland had Peter's favourite shill in the print media, Stephen McGowan on with RAB and Tam the Token. The boos continued to ring in Stephen's ears and he attempted to articulate supporters' concerns, "they're unhappy with nepotism inside the club".
Whatever the truth, the PQ Gang Hut are attempting to get a handle on the narrative. The ongoing spat with Peter over Tom English's current banishment makes the Gang Hut most uneasy.
Looks like Liewell back in charge at ra Styedome. What does CEO Nicholson the George Roper lookalike do?
Maybe the PQ gang hut could look into this

Long Term Calculation.
During the first week of the New Year, I listened to the Open Goal podcast featuring Jonathan Watson(Only an Excuse) and Graeme Stevely(Grado from River City). Both related advice they received from their respective Agents when first attending BBC Scotland for auditions/work, they were told to deny their support for Rangers. In fact, both were told expressing a preference for ra Sellik would enhance their careers going forward. On arriving at BBC Scotland, they were further surprised by a number of Staffers who they knew attended Ibrox refusing to admit they did so. Only an Excuse was first broadcast on BBC Radio Scotland in 1987, it transferred to TV in 1993.
There has been at least a forty year intent to marginalise, demonise and, dehumanise Rangers and Rangers supporters. It begins with the nameless unless, you read the end credits to identify the Producers, Directors and, Researchers. The Writers and Actors adhere to instruction. The QM(Queen Margaret) - PQ(Pacific Quay) Gang Huts know a plethora non-Sellik supporting Rangers haters are required as Useful Idiots. The likes of RAB Cosgrove, Jum Spence, Big Dick, James Cook .................... were anxious to be seen sticking the boot in, again and again because it is financially rewarding. The energy of the converted can also be harnessed, from Greg Hemphill to Sanjeev Kohli know the required rite of passage demanded.
Currently, BBC Scotland are broadcasting, 'How the Scots and Irish Changed English Football' - a three part series being utilised to lionise the contributions made to English football by a specific section of society. Did you know the GAA(Gaelic Athletic Association) had made such a telling contribution? You may remember the GAA banned all members of the Security Forces in the UK from participating in GAA sports from 1897 until 2001 but, BBC Scotland failed to mention. Instead, we had long calculating contributions from :
Martin O'Neill
Neil Lennon
Ardal O'Hanlon
Patrick Kielty
Niall Quinn
RAB Cosgrove
The rest of the series contributors are :
Charlie Nicholas, John McGinn, John Aldridge, Keith Gillespie, Josh McGennis, Pat Nevin, Graeme Souness, Brian McClair, Jonny Evans, Chick Young, David Moyes and, Sanjeev Kohli. Heavily slanted I am sure you will agree, RAB Cosgrove does his usual snide thing by referring to Souness as, "a calculating assassin". As bad or worse than his comment on Richard Gough(see Frankie's post on the 20 jan above), "ah don't think Gough was against apartheid"? Separate development ie the Scottish Education Act 1918 allowing the separation of children at aged five years for the purpose of education. Educational apartheid has been running for two more years than the GAA's ban.
The last named contributor, Sanjeev Kohli has a first class honours degree in Mathematics thus is fully qualified in calculation. His primary and secondary education was courtesy of St Aloysius College where he tells us he supported Rangers. He told Scotland on Sunday's supplement, Seven Days 25 years past he rejected Rangers in favour of ra Sellik because of the events surrounding Mark Walters debut at ra Piggery on the 2nd of January'88. Sanjeev was appalled at his fellow Rangers supporters standing beside him in the Rangers end, dressed in Gorilla suits throwing bananas at the debutant. Tell a lie, tell a BIG ONE. The only two folks who believed Sanjeev was in attendance that day were the Sports Editor, Kevin McKenna and Seven Days Editor, Charleen Sweeney.
Sanjeev is interviewed at ra Stade de Gadd, in front of the European Cup replica where he tells us another fantasy, "I always had a soft spot for Nottingham Forrest". We endure a montage of MON(John McGovern, John O'Hare, Kenny Burns, ..... etc all ignored) then the voiceover contributes, "when the Irish and Scots were good, they were the best". As the best is uttered, we cut to the Lisbon Lions strolling on to the Portuguese turf. This picture and voiceover are repeated continuously. Sanjeev's calculations have been well rewarded and he is intent upon remaining useful. You thought his brother, Hardeep was the pernicious creep?
The GAA is the recipient of the Gang Hut makeover. Last week, we suffered a GAA Social sponsored interview with Neil Lennon and the promotion of Irish rap band, 'Kneecap'. Jolly craicsters replete in republican balaclavas with names such as, 'DJ Provai' and, 'Mo Chrra'; performing in front of a flaming RUC vehicle backdrop. BBC informs the viewers Kneecap are not sectarian and are, "the epitome of wonderful Irish erudition". Sounded like another RAB contribution to me? Anyways, Kneecap sing, "Get them Brits Out" another appeal for separate development but only after they had secured £1.7 million in British Arts funding.
Finally, we return to RAB Cosgrove and yesterday's two hour sigh, "ah've fell out of love wi Scottish football". He vented for a couple of minutes on St Johnstone being rank without uttering the words, 'Craig Levein'. It is akin to Humza's two minutes of Holocaust remembrance without saying the word, 'Jew'. It is a long term calculation.
No mention of Brenda in ‘how the Scots and Irish changed English football’ ?
surely someone who’s managed three EPL clubs would have at least got a mention? 😳
maybe Peter’s keeping a tight rein on things if all not well again in the east end if weekends rumours were anything to go by 🤓

Only player we could get serious money for would be Butland.
He’d be almost impossible to replace without spending really serious money

I stopped the debate when the inevitable Hearts striker got brought into it. He's not a Rangers player, he never will be a Rangers player and the continuing so called speculation does my napper in
Shankland in my view would find it much more difficult to score for Rangers when opponents have 11 men behind the ball. He wouldn’t get the space he gets at hertz.

His replacement?
just watch how Liverpool (& all EPL clubs for that matter) don’t even consider Gareth Southgate

Can we replay our 2 league games against the yahoos this season?
Roofe’s goal should never have been disallowed in a million years in the first game & as well as the penalty in the second game how bug eyes their RB never got a second yellow was unbelievable

Delighted to get the 3 points & it’s good to see a Rangers manager prepared to make changes if he believes players aren’t contributing as he did at HT today.

A fine win. Very pleased with that.
Tin hat on now, one or two of Beale’s signings now beginning to settle after difficult starts? 😳

I would keep Jack.
He is our finest midfielder.
If we can get 20-30 games a season from him, along with his presence around the club, I think it's worth it.
(And make him retire from the national side.)
Makes sense for the euro squads too as he’s a homegrown.

An improvement on Saturdays performance and against decent opposition. Still lots of improvement required but think the manager knows that.
Back to games that matter at the weekend and hopefully the gaffer will have us ready for the 2nd half of the season - we have 3 trophies to win 😉
Decent opposition indeed. FC Copenhagen are in the last 16 of the CL playing Man City. Maybe 2-2 not too bad although the 2 goals we lost were woeful

The issue is, goalkeeper apart, most areas are coming to the top of our to do list ;
Left back
Centre Back
Midfielder who can dictate a game
Wide right player
Wide Left player (if we don't sign sima)
Centre forward or two
I'd say replacing Tav is bottom of that list
McAusland wide right?

I’m genuinely concerned about what we’ve got up front at the moment not just today

I often wondered what Lammers best position was. I think that might have been a big part of the problem.
Beale signed him & didn’t seem to know. Now it seems Clement isn’t interested in him

Surely only a matter of time before Scott ‘Lego muncher’ Brown joins the BBC PQ CSC gang hut.
Mouthing about a GAP between them & us, he might care to reflect the massive assists they got from referees in both OF games this season.1
Clubs hold ‘serious concerns’ over the independence of the Governance report

Incredible Doncaster has lasted so long in his position at the SPFL and SPL before that. His record is abysmal.
He seems to keep such a low profile nowadays. McLennan too
