buster.

When it comes to this type of subject, experience tells us that proof is in the pudding, not ITK posters, newspapers or the club (eg. week to 10 days). Puddng = on the pitch playing

Unfotunately makes logical sense. Yes, they were yellow cards but red cards were also shown. edit 48.01 As a rule, a player who is sent off the field of play is suspended for the next match in a UEFA club competition (i.e. UEFA Champions League, UEFA Europa League or UEFA Super Cup). In case of serious offences, the UEFA Control, Ethics and Disciplinary Body is entitled to augment this punishment, including by extending it to other competitions. https://www.uefa.com/MultimediaFiles/Download/Regulations/uefaorg/Regulations/02/55/82/82/2558282_DOWNLOAD.pdf

If he got the ok from our medical examination to sign then he'd have surely went to the Albanian training camp and started to train. I reckon he must have got injured at training. Given timescale from earlier in year (out for a month). I wonder if it was a grade 2 sprain that hasn't healed properly. I'm not a doctor but have had similar problems.

Chairman Murdoch MacLennan (Shifty)

Found it strange he got into the squad given he hasn't played any football this season. These are the last games he played for Osijek and Albania (number = minutes played) 13-05-18 Hajduk Split 1 - 1 Osijek 65 09-05-18 Osijek 3 - 1 Cibalia 62 05-05-18 Inter Zaprešić 1 - 0 Osijek 24 03-04-18 Lokomotiva Zagreb 1 - 1 Osijek 35 26-03-18 Albania 0 - 1 Norway 90 18-03-18 Osijek 3 - 3 Hajduk Split 90 14-03-18 Osijek 1 - 1 Inter Zaprešić 90 11-03-18 Cibalia 1 - 1 Osijek 90 17-02-18 Osijek 2 - 1 Rijeka 90 10-02-18 Osijek 2 - 4 Dinamo Zagreb 90 If the report is to believed, sounds like he further damaged it training for Albania. Edit It appears that the game on 3/4/2018 was when it 'flared up' given that he started the game but was taken off after 35 minutes. He was out for a month, came back and played a little then missed the beginning of the season. He may of came back too soon and done some damage.

Man City............. 22 man A List Bayern................ 24 PSG..................... 22 Barcelona...........24 Real Madrid........25

A post that helps explain why the Orange Order is short of mates.

Don't take everything so literally.

If we talk politics then we won't all stick together. If we talk about football, we might.

I think you have to take into account the 2014 referendum, the way social media has effected debate which leads on to and contributes to an increasingly polarised society (many places). I think the above has had a marked effect on current attitudes, rhetoric, situations and the in your face nature of them.........in many different strands of society, concerning different groups and issues. Not to mention, the exploitation by interested parties (eg. lobby groups) to use new technologies to influence matters in a way that can often contribute to polarisation. Easy access to target markets for agitation.

That was out of Left-Field.........good luck to him.

Wallace was 'club-trained' by Hearts.

You can have 25 Association trained players (locally trained) but you'd lose 4 slots and be limited to a 21 man squad. There is a link to the rules a few posts back.

No You must have 8 Locally Trained players (ATP and CTP) That includes a maximum of 4 Association Trained players Hence if you only have 1 Club Trained player, you lose 3 slots in the squad.....As per us with only McGregor.

I think they'd have to arrange the draw so as the first match out of the hat would be for the Saturday (if us and them were kept seperate / if drawn together, it'll be the Sunday) Otherwise the SPFL would need to make a decision they won't want to have to make. The following midweek has another round of League fixtures. We are at home whilst Celtic play away from home, a game that would probably be moved for TV.

Opinions

Being born in X won't make you patriotic.................... Familiarity and a bond/love grown over years might produce what I'd consider a 'pure patrotism'. A good objective education may better inform you of background but would probably mean you didn't make life decisions based upon only patriotism. Indoctrination of one kind or another is a route to a different type of patriotism.

Here is a 'naughty' question for you. If the UK is a longterm political construct, a Union of nations. Then in 300 years might a football team be flying the EU flag at it's games ?

Patriotism in it's pure form is indeed noble. As for 'getting rid of flags', rather than a serious proposal, it was a metaphorical viewpoint. The abuse of Patriotism is very different than simple mediums like TV and social media. Although there is an argument to say getting rid of TV & SM would in many ways improve the world

You'll be able to get Kenny Millers version in the Daily Record further down the line. Via his go to plumber, Keith Jackson.

That is the point. Many seem 'to value' the Union, ahead of the nation and (metaphorically) wave that flag. I was brought up in the East and I always considered myself Scottish and as I got older, the Union, as a longtime political construct. I'd do away with all flags tbh, patriotism is too often badly abused by the few and often used against the best interests of the majority of the people.

As we all knew, the League games after the European matches have all been moved to Sunday. https://rangers.co.uk/matches The potential issue occurs if: 1. Rangers and Celtic get past Ayr Utd and St.Johnstone respectively and reach the League Cup semi-finals. and 2. Rangers and Celtic avoid each other in draw for semi-finals. Both teams have EL matches on Thursday 25th October League Cup semi-finals are scheduled for Saturday 27th and Sunday 28th October. Either us or them would have about 38 hours between BIG games. We have Spartak Moscow at Ibrox. They have a trip to Germany.

Yes, it is.....just a different flag. In Scotland, you have Celtic fans with Irish flags and Rangers fans with Union flags

Fine, I would say Dorrans being available for 2 or 3 group games in a position we are short trumps that of Wallace, in a position we are well covered....but thems opinions and wrt Dorrans return from injury timescale that will only be known to a few, including who selected the squad (SG). You said the club in your opinion, was being vindictive. If that was the case, why did they allow SG to bring him onto the pitch against Motherwell when the player had already taken the case to appeal ? I'll leave this one here as I think we'd just go round in circles.

Fine, but from a football perspective We can only pick 4 Association Trained Players...... Would you put Wallace ahead of Arfield, Jack, Halliday and Dorrans ? After Barisic and Flanagan, Halliday offers cover at both LB, DCM and potentially more. SG has used him and trusts him. That leaves Dorrans, he gets ahead because he offers something we are short of and if he could be available for the second half of the group, it would IMO provide a better option than LW, with three options in already for Left Back.
