3-2 in front but lost 2 goals with Sandros and Wilson at the back with Crooks just in front of them.

Waghorn taken off injured seemingly.

Not taking Rangers into account he is leaving the MLS anyway wherever he goes.

Scottish Premiership crowd study shows attendances are up at SEVEN clubs 12:11, 15 Nov 2016 Updated 12:45, 15 Nov 2016 By Graeme Young , Darren Cooney CELTIC and Rangers gates have increased on last season along with five other outfits to boost total figure in the top flight. AS the Scotland national team continues its downward spiral, it’s heartening to learn one facet of our game is on the up. Record Sport Online dusted off its calculator to find out what is happening with crowds in the Scottish Premiership. Thankfully, our old Casio delivered some good news. Comparing attendances between this stage of this season and last shows an improvement at seven of the 12 top-flight clubs. Also, the total is larger – by nearly 1,000 – compared to mid-November in 2015. Aberdeen’s crowds are up Celtic, Rangers, Aberdeen, Dundee, Inverness, Kilmarnock and St Johnstone’s crowds are bigger this season than last. Only Hearts, Ross County, Motherwell, Partick Thistle and Hamilton have seen dips. Some of these decreases can be explained by having not welcomed either of the Glasgow giants to their home grounds. Neither the Jags not Accies have played either of the big two at home this year – but they had at the same stage last season. Dundee’s biggest crowd was against Rangers Here are the figures...

I think they should watch this as well

Hopefully I will get home to do it one day. I got a guided tour of Ibrox once but I think that is 50+ years ago. I had to climb the ladder to the press box above the main stand. what a climb that was for a young boy. You did get a cracking view of the pitch though.

i hope he has contacts outwith a 50 mile radius of Liverpool.

Jellybeans on FF is posting we have a new first team scout. Kieran Scott (Ex Burnley)

I guess the most extreme idiots would have but I can't really believe many intelligent people would. I read about it a few weeks ago but filed it under crap straight away. Just the logistics of it make it bullshit.

:celebrate:

I guess it was a Celtic joke stemming from this story.

According to Irish newspaper The Herald, Rangers have joined the race for Dundalk winger Daryl Horgan – and also want to sign his team-mate Andy Boyle. Dundalk have been the story of this season's Europa League, having not only beaten Maccabi Tel Aviv in Group D, but also drew with AZ Alkmaar and fought valiantly against Zenit St. Petersburg. The problem for manager Stephen Kenny is that those impressive performances both in the Europa League and in the League of Ireland mean that a host of clubs are interested in signing their players. RTE recently reported that Aston Villa and Newcastle United sent scouts to watch star winger Daryl Horgan in action against Cork City in the FAI Cup final, whilst The Irish Sun reported over the weekend that Celtic had also joined the race for his signature. Meanwhile, HITC Sport understand that Ipswich Town have registered an interest in signing Dundalk centre back Andy Boyle, with both he and Horgan coming to the end of their contracts next month. Now, Irish newspaper The Herald report that Rangers are keen to sign both players, with Mark Warburton looking for January reinforcements after an up-and-down start to the season, though they could face a battle with Old Firm rivals Celtic for Horgan, whilst Preston are believed to the 'favourites' to land him. Winger Horgan, 24, has become Dundalk's key player, scoring ten goals in his last 22 games, whilst earning a place in the Republic of Ireland national team, and he would add some pace and quality out wide for a Rangers side who have struggled going forward at times this season.

I believe that was another story from the deluded that Rangers had tapped water from a local church for Ibrox because we couldn't pay the water bill.

I am not sure that UEFA have actually investigated it. I think they are saying any complaint has to come from the club. Celtic have said they won't pursue it. The SFA say everything was above water.

http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/rangers-agm-2016-you-need-9257965

The SFA have said there was nothing there. Celtic themselves don't want to touch it but maybe are pushing it underwater, who knows. UEFA have told them they are not interested. It is to do with the timing of a debt Rangers had. To qualify for Europe a club should have no tax debts I believe. The Celtic supporters are saying the small tax debt should have kept us out of Europe. It has been proven that that debt was not over date at that time. Rangers still had time to pay it. If I am wrong will someone correct me. The film the Celtic supporters brought out shows referee decisions where they say they have been cheated for years. I only saw a small trailer which any club could have made.

The SFA won't want to rock any boats sailing eastwards.

From what i have been reading they also showed their "Anyone but Septic" film yesterday at the piggery. Even a couple of Septic supporters said it was embarrassing.

Awe Nawwwwww.

I seem to remember something about Dave Smith renting a house out and then having a lot of difficulty getting the people out of it after the rental period was finished.

One of my all time hero's 73 years today. Have a good one Dave.

What is it they say about a bad rash.... They do try. In fact they are very trying. Rhegan gets sacked and thy move in a real sympathiser?

It is your meaning but again Boyd has confirmed that the players were not open to new training methods. If you do your best to undermine a manager by not performing and causing unrest in the dressing room doesn't sound like you really care to me. You are entitled to your own opinion though.

He isn't wrong as the cup final proved but he is totally unprofessional to talk about a fellow professional like that. He should worry about getting a game for his own team.
