  1. His CV is decent, three titles in 3 years in Belgium. Out of all the candidates, I think he's the best fit. Unfortunately, the group in the dressing room is the real issue.
  2. He won't get sacked but he's on extremely thin ice. I would say yes if there was an obvious and readily made candidate but I'm not seeing it anywhere so I reckon hes got to be given time.
  3. I'm agreeing with @Bluedell It's not conclusive that the Celtic CB is definitely about to kick the ball, certain not clear and obvious, and if it were given against Celtic then we would never hear the end of it. But, we were poor from the first minute and we've not capitlised on a Celtic team bereft of confidence and half their team. The fans have lost faith with Beale. We have not played well at all this season except for a brief 20mins last week at Ross County. Last season's deficiencies are still there, we gift Celtic goals and our misfiring strikers are missing open goals. I don't see how he turns it round, the fans are sick of the excuses and constantly being behind Celtic. Our board has allowed this malaise to manifest and it feels like it's become our identity now, weak, pathetic and meek. Celtic should have been there for the taking but we started deep, let their bombscare CBs have all the time in the world and let McGregor dictate play. 2nd half, we were a bit better but still didn't play well, despite missing open goals or forcing Joe Hart to make some saves. Dessers, on another day, he would've got 2 assists so I'm not 100% against him but he is playing as a No9 and the amount of times he's not in the 6 yard box as a cross flashes across goal!
  4. Feared the worst, and so it transpired. PSV are miles ahead of us on and off the park and we drew the worst possible draw available to us. Last two summer windows have not been good enough and that's why we are where we are. Massive pressure on MB on Sunday now. Failure to win will have massive consequences for his tenure amongst a sizable portion of the support.
  5. A Veerman OG in the 89th minute that send us through would top 55 for me
  6. Sorry to say lads but think we will need to take one on the chin tonight. Think it's just come a wee bit too early for us.
  7. Beale has said in the past that LB is a good addition in the changing room and I can't believe that he's going to relying on LB other than for cover for one we are bit short.
  8. Very impressed by Cantwell, but most folk around me (who hadn't left yet) were dumbstruck when the announcer said the sponsor's MOTM was Ben Davies. Not that Davies had a bad game but it was quite clearly Cantwell.
  9. Not a fan, especially with the UBs asking for everyone to wear blue for the final... I'd imagine many will wear this strip instead.
  10. Particularly sore one for me, my son's has gone up from £170 to £510 by virtue of him turning 16...
  11. He was at fault for their first goal. I find him and Balogun to be quite erratic at times. Bassey is young and will get better but his delivery isn't as good as Borna's and I felt Barisic coming on mightve given us more attacking options, in the second half.
  12. I don't have an issue with this at all. Bisgrove and his counterpart, over at Snake Mountain, have obviously been tasked with generating as much money as possible. Whether we (or they) like it or not, the "Old Firm" brand is, quite possibly, the biggest asset in the Scottish market... I'd bet, they'll see how this goes and, if it goes well, then they'll roll it out elsewhere (USA/Canada) and possibly Asia, should the market be there for it.
  13. If Gerrard delivers our first title in a decade then he will win manager of the year. You get the impression that Martindale loses a few games and will stick the napper on someone.

    Stairway 13

    It's a horrifying thought for that to happen at a football game. Thanks for sharing the OP.
  15. Not surprised at all. Prepare for an onslaught from our friends in the media.
  16. He's not a new manager, he's been in the job 4/5 months and we've seen NO improvement whatsoever. Normally, a new manager gets in and you see an immediate improvement from the players - this didn't happen. Name one player who has improved since Pedro got the gig because I can't. In fact, I can name a few who got markedly worse. 4 weeks is plenty of time to get in a McInnes or even a McLeish or Smith type to get the basics right before we see another nightmare seasona unfold before us. One thing is clear, he's not got it at all, his record before coming to Ibrox wasn't particularly impressive and now he's blotted our History with 3 of the worst results we've ever had. Struggle to see any optimism at all.
  17. Sorry, but based on what exactly? He's done absolutely zero since he's come in. We've been stuffed at Ibrox by Celtic, 5-1 going on 10, we've lost a 27yo record vs Aberdeen, he's not managed to convince our best player to sign a contract to stay at the Club, he's now presided over the worst result in our history and you think he's a good Coach. Sorry, but you can't see the woods for the trees. He's tactically clueless, the players are obviously not playing for him and the season is a right off if he stays in charge. We have 5 weeks before the league starts, we need to tell Pedro to go and get in a Manager who understands the Club and commands the players respect.
  18. Minutes silence to be held before Saturdays Scottish cup tie vs Motherwell.
  19. That's what I think about nearly all of our players. Rob, Waghorn, Tav et al all lack consistency, confidence and belief. If we can make them feel 10ft tall then they'll be better players.
  20. Re: The Hearts 'offside' goal, defo offside? Couldn't tell from my vantage point.
  21. What is this about? Anyone know?
  22. Cesc Fabregas has went down the pecking order at Spartak Fulham
  23. Would be great to bring through more of our own boys. Best of luck to young Gilmour.
