  1. Most were hoping nobody was called up so as our game would not be cancelled. I would let McKay and King go and still play the game as we have enough cover in Forrester,Clark, O'H'n, Law, Shiels,Miller.
  2. BD remember the words of our leader: respect, respect and respect.
  3. I think it was Rangers that made that decision. Warburton didn't want them this season.
  4. We did play that way until teams started parking the bus against us. Dundee thought they could play football and were left chasing shadows.
  5. Thinking over the last few games and over the season really the difference that Forrester makes is that he can and will shoot. Tavernier and Wallace can but Wallace is not always in a position being a defender and Tav is only really accurate from dead ball situations. I thought him stepping over and Halliday shooting was well worked and surprised everybody. Other than that we had nobody that would shoot. McKay, Miller, Holt, Law Shiels, Zelalem, Oduwa(don't laugh) and Clark in general hold no shooting danger and it was getting easy for teams to stop the final pass. Forrester has changed that and that pulls more opposition players out of position.
  6. Agree I haven't heard many Rangers supporters complaining as big DJ says.
  7. This article makes me think of an old saying. Who called the cook a cunt. Who called the cunt a cook. Cook becomes writer of course.
  8. I agree it is a lot of crap but he has got a reaction, Job done!
  9. That's what i actually meant I can understand that no names are given. I never thought of names to be honest.
  10. I would think the negotiators or people setting it up would need all the facts so I am not sure that they shouldn't have all the facts and figures.
  11. I have said for a while the best way to get at them would be to sing " Walk On" before they do at the start of the game. That would shock them.
  12. Dundee game highlights I am not sure if these have been posted yet it is the highlights from the goal camera's. If they have been on let me know and I will delete the post.
  13. I wasn't saying it was right or wrong or that it wouldn't be changed, that is Frankie's decision I was just stating how it probably came about. It was probably a case of nobody thinking about it. Sometimes you don't see a problem until it it surfaces.
  14. For me POTY is pretty easy. Barrie McKay has been the most consistent player and wins by quite a margin in my opinion. Waghorn has scored a lot but many are penalties and he has not been as consistent as McKay.
  15. What a lot of tosh! (The article) Attendances have fallen if you watch a game you only see empty seats. Dundee Utd had to sell most of their best players to Celtic to balance the books and that has had the consequence that they face being demoted. The upturn of Inverness and Ross county has nothing to do with Rangers being in the division or not.
  16. There used to be a television programme that read out customer complaints. I know Anne Robinson used to do it. Is it still running? If so somebody could send a full updated vanguard bear list in to it and see if they air it.
  17. Probably because Hun was used as discussion only by Rangers fans on here and Fen!an was used as a derogatory word and that is illegal and the site could get in trouble.
  18. Good positive article.
  19. Heads only roll for singing the Billy Boys.
  20. Alan Stubbs: Spanish sun can rejuvenate Hibs Alan Stubbs believes a few days of training in the Spanish sunshine will ensure Hibs are in the best shape possible for Sunday’s League Cup final against Ross County. The Easter Road squad last night checked in to the idyllic La Cala Resort in the Andalusian hills and will remain here until Thursday before flying back to Edinburgh to finalise preparations for the biggest game of their season so far. Stubbs thanked the board for allowing him to take his players abroad and believes the four-day stint on the Costa del Sol will help rejuvenate them following a gruelling run of fixtures across three competitions over the last couple of months. While cup final opponents County are taking a business-as-usual approach by remaining in the Highlands, Hibs’ head coach cited the chance to prepare in more harmonious conditions and the opportunity to escape the hype back home among his main reasons for requesting a sunshine training camp. “It’s something we had spoken about for a number of weeks,” said Stubbs. “It’s been a heavy schedule over the last month. We’ve had ten games in the space of 32 days, so I wanted to try and take them away from all the publicity around the game and have an enclosed training camp where it’s just us and we can work on what we need to work on for the game in a relaxed environment away from all the TV. “I just wanted to have a really relaxed environment before Sunday because I know the tension can build before the game. I asked about the opportunity of taking them away to do that and the club have, again, backed me and trusted me by doing it. “Our training pitches have been really poor lately. They have been really heavy. And with the uncertainty over the weather, we are now in an environment where we know we’re getting a good surface and we know we’re getting a decent climate where we can stop and walk through things without having to worry about players being cold.” Hibs had two training stints at the Spanish resort of La Manga last year, but Stubbs decided to take his team to La Cala on this occasion after being impressed by the facilities when staying here in his days as an Everton player. “I have been here before and the pitches are very good,” he said. “I trained here with Everton. It’s all enclosed, it’s very private and you get well looked after. “This is not a reward or anything – this is preparation for a cup final on Sunday.” The last time Hibs won the League Cup, in 2007, then manager John Collins also took them to the Costa del Sol to prepare. Dylan McGeouch arrived in Spain with his team-mates even though a groin problem, which was aggravated against Inverness on Sunday, looks certain to rule him out of the final. Paul Hanlon, who will definitely miss out through injury, also made the trip. Fraser Fyvie will be closely monitored in training as he bids to prove his fitness following a month out with medial ligament damage. Was Neutralscot not on here telling us how Hibs had such excellent training facilities?
  21. Warburton won't dance for the pie man.
  22. So the people who made the judgement now have to judge that they got it wrong. What the f is that. We can forget that then.
  23. I think we had the surprise element back again with the speed and intensity of our football. What happened in the opening games of the season when we surprised everyone with our play came back again against an unsuspecting Dundee. Dundee thought we could do it at Championship level but they were a class above. Rangers have actually turned all the championship teams up to a far superior level of fitness. Yes they almost all parked the bus but their fitness levels improved vastly. Hopefully Celtic will also make the mistake of misjudging us and we blow them away before they know what has hit them.
  24. Was watching a player in Belfast. Okay you Belfast lads who was playing and who was he likely to be watching?
  25. Seemingly he said yesterday he was praying he may make it so I think it is still doubtful at this moment.
