  1. Neither in the same league as Jackie Milburn.
  2. Let's hope the headline isn't tempting fate. Pessimism Loyal.

    A print of that mighty banner would sell well with the over-seventies loyal.
  4. Dens is 11,500 though 43,000 + saw Dundee v Rangers in a SC tie in 1953. Firhill is 10,800.
  5. The Dundee v Hearts attendance is dire.
  6. I see the boy Jackson can't spell "sleight" or maybe it was a subbie. The old hot print guys were a class above that.
  7. Yes he did: " The idea of barring writers, some might feel, had disappeared with the fall of the Berlin Wall, but not at Ibrox, and indeed, not right across British football. Many clubs are at it, including Celtic." Maybe he doesn't claim to be a writer.
  8. Writers are not barred. Not even GS is barred. They don't seem to get it.
  9. I hope Arsenal hold off United to win it but Chelsea can never be wrtten off so long as John Terry is fit. I agree about Falcao but Mourinho tends to know what he's doing. Even more sensibly he doesn't flog a dead horse. If he makes a mistake he knows it. Can't fathom City's signing policy. They need defensive craftsmen, not prodigy midfielders and somebody to lend a hand to Aguero. He can't do it all on his own but he has a damn good try.
  10. Who wasn't "horrendous" against M'well?
  11. "I think there's an assumption that because he's Irish he must support Celtic. English is from Limerick and that's an unusual town and county by Republic of Ireland standards. For a start it's the only part of the Republic of Ireland where rugby is the top sport...." That's part of the point I was trying to make. To his credit, there is nothing in his broadcasts or his writing to reveal his allegiance. I know who he doesn't like. He did a bit of summarising in the rugby commentaries. I'm no expert in that game but he sounded pretty good. In the Irish match there was no favouring his national team unlike the SNP stalwarts who were sharing the broadcast.
  12. TE writes very well. He may support celtic - I don't know, nothing in his writing reveals anything - but he doesn't like Rangers. Strangely, he was at his most sympathetic when Rangers were at their lowest ebb with a second Administration looming. His posture on the "ban" is laughable. Come to our match but not to our trough. What's hard to understand?

    God's got his half-line sorted - McColl, Woodburn, Cox. Years ago on FF there was a debate on how the Iron Curtain would have fared in modern football. Someone reckoned, rightly imo, that Brown would have been too erratic, Young and Shaw would have struggled, McColl and Woodburn would have been just fine and Sammy Cox would have strolled it.
  14. A columnist can be biased, so long as he admits it. A reporter should report and do so accurately with no slant. CM is supposedly a reporter.
  15. No journo has been banned. The two smart alecs just have to pay to get in and pay for their pie and a cup of tea at half time. Withdrawal of privilege is not a ban on reporting.

    "Won't you play up the Glasgow Rangers, Sammy Cox, he's on the ball ...."
  17. A fairly boring encounter littered with mistakes. Arsenal's passing was extrordinarily bad. Ozil looked uninterested. Giroud made a difference when he came on. John Terry remains an outstanding defender. Cech did all that was needed. If either of these teams had been Rangers we would have been moaning to high heaven.
  18. If I understand it correctly, the posturing oafs have not been banned from Ibrox. It's just that they are banned from free access and goodies. So why the screaming?
  19. This is like watching celtic v Aberdeen in a relegation play-off.
  20. The photos in 850 show what a Rangers shirt should look like. The ball big Davis was throwing probably landed in Canada.
  21. "He wont get Sports direct advertised in the Champions League via Ibrox." Couple of snags there. First, it may be some time before Rangers are in any serious CL ties and second, the advertising shown on the telly is restricted to sponsors.
