Good games this weekend. City don’t cope well with Chelsea but they should have won the Cl Final 4-1. Will they falloff the Bridge tomorrow? Not this time. Chelsea 0-2 City United 3-1 Villa Toffees 0-1 Canaries (Hope not) Leeds 1-2 Hammers Leicester 3-1 Burnley Watford 2-0 Magpies Bees 0-3 Liverpool So’ton 2-1 Wolves Gunners 0-0 ‘Spurs Palace 0-2 Brighton & Hove Galacticos

Let’s hope the learned judge sees that this is commerce, not playground best friends.

Bear in mind the Court action is at the instance of Parks, not Rangers. Separate entitities. Lend credence to Timothy’s dreams. Bisgrove spent the summer hawking stadium naming rights. He reports to the Board that he can sign up some second hand car salesmen. Rangers hand in glove with cinch ‘til the SPFL lure cinch away with a better offer and Rangers, miffed, refuse to take part. So far, so good for the green dreamers Here’s the rude awakening. Bisgrove reports to the Board but Directors with significant shareholdings say no thanks, try again. Can’t see the problem but to be fair, SPFL senior counsel, Lord Keen of Elie, knows more than I do about this kind of stuff.

Two - nil down in a cup tie, ten minutes to go and Livingston reluctant to visit the last third of the pitch, what’s the point? May as well have conceded when the second went in.

Poor chap may not have a playing future.

We know the answer to that. Rangers should do the opposite.

You can wait so long?

… in one of the funny Cup competitions despite a 3-0 defeat at Ayr. Ayr fielded two ineligible players but only as substitutes in the last nine minutes when they were already three goals up. Ayr have been reprimanded and the tie has been awarded to Rangers B who are now scheduled to play Alloa in the next round. Right decision by the Beaks. It would also be right for Rangers B not to take advantage of a mistake that had no effect whatsoever on the result of the tie and withdraw from the Competition. Just a shame that Alloa would be the beneficiaries.

The Eye of the Tiger, a book on the great captain, available on Amazon at £15.99 from 11 October. I can’t copy the cover illustration but check it on Amazon and you’ll see why Bobby Shearer, Tam Forsyth and Don Corleone aren’t so frightening after all.

Turning point of the game.

Last season’s multi-million pound assets look like selling-platers.

It’s wrong to pick defenders who sleep-walk during the day. I only switched on ten minutes ago. In that time the defence blundered thrice and an excellent opportunity for a goal for Rangers was wasted.

Greaves had an eye for the space in the goal area where the ball was likely to go and he’d be there to meet it while every other player was still trying to work it out. Think of Roofe against Dunfermline. Greaves must have scored umpteen like that.

Very bad result for Wolves. Stung 0-2. Newcastle and Leeds draw which may suit both at the moment but later in the season, Newcastle will regret losing points at home.

Some good matches this weekend. Mags 1-2 Leeds Wolves 2-0 Brentford Burnley 1-1 Arsenal (Relegation battle) Liverpool 3-0 Palace City 4-1 So’ton Norwich 0-1 Watford Villa 2-2 Everton (Match of the day when I was a little lad) BHA 1-2 Leicester ’ammers 1-3 United ’Spurs 1-3 Chelsea

Like Harry Davis used to do sixty years ago?

All incomers to Rangers suffer by comparison to illustrious predecessors. We were wanting a replacement for Ian McMillan. Neither Penman or Alex Willoughby before him could do that. Let’s face it. Who could? Penman did very well, though and at Dundee he was consistently excellent in a top team. Perhaps the early sixties Dundee was a better side than the late sixties Rangers?

Very good but are they going to float there for a couple more weeks and then drift back to 7th, 8th?

Star signing from Scottish Aces celtic notches a debut brace. For those without an HND in sports journalism, French Eddie scored two.

When he hit it, I thought it was going miles over the bar but before I can snarl an oath, the ball’s in the net. Anyone else get the dread when Clark went lolloping up for the last seconds corner?

Does timothy know about this?

Ronaldo scores two in a 4-1 win. The title on its way to Old Trafford, unfortunately.

That’s wrecked everybody’s coupon. Bottleham Bluntspur. Nearly forty minutes gone in all the other matches and no goals. But in added time in the first half, some trialist by name of Ronaldo pops one in for United. No goals elsewhere and nearly an hour gone.

A draw in Embra tomorrow and that should be the Table set for the season..

He’s not very good but others are much worse.
