It's not intentional from Roofe, he's simply trying to protect the ball.

Thank f*ck for that...

I don't know about the board, but the Edu-Arteta relationship has the beginnings of a valuable asset. Mustafi is rubbish, wasn't going to play and nobody wanted him. They've also got rid of Ozil, Kolasinac, Mustafi, Sokratis, and the troublesome Guendouzi. Partey and Gabriel are good signings, and Odegaard fits in with what they want. They've improved recently, and I think they'll get a EU spot, which is technically better than last season because they needed the FA cup to qualify.

My praise for Newcastle's new coach crashed and burned last night! They actually started well, again, pressing high, creating a lot of chances etc. Then, once they scored, they seemed to sit back and revert to type. The difference in that match was night and day. I think Shelvey is playing on past reputation; he's so lazy now. They'd be better replacing him.

Arsenal may have lost last night, but I've been impressed with their progress. From the little I seen they were the better side last night, hitting the woodwork several times, having a goal chopped off, before the red card and resulting penalty. It took two red cards, a penalty and a 30-yarder to beat them. They've got good youngsters stepping up and have got rid of some deadwood - although there's still more to discard, IMO. They're on the right track.

Do you think Wright or Simpson will play a part?

How many points clear, Scott? ?

I don't think Katic is good enough. Of the six CBs we have, he's bottom of the pile, for me. I would be trying to move him on.

Brandon...

Brilliant.

I posted a joke post about Scott Wright being able to pick up a league winners medal, but I've deleted it. I just can't bring myself to jinx it still... #BigJessie

Agreed. That gets rid of a lot of deadwood, and brings in a couple of, I think, decent squad players? Maybe even potential first-team players.

I'm in shock. I just can't believe it...

He's one for the future, and a squad player for next season, I'd surmise. We were actually quite short in midfield with Arfield and Jack out recently. Davis and Arfield are getting on a bit too.

Rangers 2 - 0 St Johnstone FGS Roofe

How many wins do we need now?

Newcastle beat Everton 0-2. The difference? Newcastle's recent appointment, coach Graeme Jones. Jones has worked with Roberto Martinez for 12 years, from Swansea to Belgium, via Wigan and Everton. You can see the difference straight away: 4-3-3, pressing from the front, little triangles in passing and they actually created chances. It's good management from Bruce, but you have to wonder what the point of him is... ?

While Morelos is a Rangers player, I will defend anything he does (within reason). The outcry from Ranges fans is due to the blatant double standards. @PoohBear

I think it was the Scottish Cup game against Cove Rangers, which has been cancelled.

But... you listen to the superlative Gersnet Podcast, don't you... ?
