Is it a 12:00 kick-off?
I need to get my spot behind the couch ready...
Buzz off. I’m here already.

Arsenal top.
Come on United. (Just for tomorrow, to be clear)

English seizes upon one possible out of many interpretations of McCoist’s words and runs round the room brandishing it over his head and refusing to let go.
I had a golden retriever once who did that with folks’ cushions when I took him visiting.

Over half an hour in and no reports of drownings so far.

I don’t like “old firm” either. Never did. Who wants to be partners with them?

I believe PC has plenty credit in the bank for the way he has started, but it's undeniable that if we lose again on Sunday, questions will be asked.
Only one question needs to be asked if Rangers lose on Sunday. Will he be able to strengthen the team for next season? In fact, the same question should be asked if Rangers go on to win the league.
Barring abject collapse in the remaining matches Clement has done enough.

City before Liverpool any day of the week.

I think it’ll be the Gunners.

A point saved at St James is acceptable.

IMO, if we win this game, we will win the League title
I agree provided the team doesn’t get stupid.

Souttar had another good game. He was about the only defender not to blame for their goal!
Well observed, Tsb.

It's called a cannon, Rousseau
Good to see that shot.
A schoolboy was telling me how much he was looking forward to Easter holiday events especially being taught by his father how to play pool. I hope I managed to disguise my disapproval. A father should teach his son billiards. When the boy has mastered billiards, snooker on an occasional recreational basis is acceptable but pool never.

Wright’s foot in the box according to the caption. Not if he’d been brought down in open play, it wouldn’t have been.
I don’t think it was a penalty. The defender was on the way down from his jump when Souttar started his.

Throw in Charlton, and you'd need 500M GBP.
Mind you, that would be your forward line sorted.
How much wages would they command today?
Could one club afford them?
It would need a new club underwritten by the Spanish government. Reallona Unido.

How much for the pair? £300M?

I’m just getting started, Bill. This is really for dotards well into their second childhood. You’ve got a year or two yet before you begin to approach that stage.
God knows what young @CammyF is doing here. His observations are very welcome nonetheless.

There was a discussion on FF recently staring the the entire Fanous Five and Iron Curtain players never actually faced each other very often. Any of the resident Historians confirm or deny this?
Interesting point I’ve never thought about but it’s right. Jock Shaw was the first of the Curtain to retire at the end of season 1951/52 but played only twice that season neither time against the Hibs. The previous season, 50/51, he played in eighteen matches including a SC second round at Ibrox against Hibs (2-3 in front of 102,342) when all ten of the Curtain and the Five were on the park. Neither league match featured the tout ensemble.
The Five played together for the first time in season 49/50 and encountered the Curtain in both league matches so that looks like only two league games when the unstoppable met the immovable.
Don’t bother to marvel at my phenomenal memory. I got all this from David Docherty’s excellent book, The Rangers Football Companion. It only covers 1946 - 1986 but it’s great for teams, results and attendances with the odd bit of narrative and some photos.

I think the major frustration for me is the fee we paid for him (that's not his fault), I was expecting a player who'd burst into the team and outperform Barisic.
At the money paid you are entitled to both expectation and frustration.

And here’s the banger in of the goals, Lawrie Reilly of the Hibs. I saw him interviewed on the telly mentioning the respect that existed between the Curtain and the Five sides. He said he never wanted to leave Hibs but if they wanted to sell him he would have gone to Rangers.
Thank God he’s not playing on Saturday, nor Joe Baker nor Neil Martin. I wish Colin Stein was - for Rangers of course.

The keyrings had leather fobs with the enamelled crest not the cheapskate plastic rubbish you get now.
