The Dutch are giving a subsidy of 300.000 euro's to clubs who change back to grass but they won't ban plastic pitches.

Coverage: Watch on BBC One Scotland & iPlayer; listen on BBC Radio Scotland 810MW/DAB/online; live text commentary on the BBC Sport website & app Auchinleck Talbot are looking to create history on Saturday in the Scottish Cup against Ayr United. On the three previous occasions the Ayrshire junior side have met senior opposition in the competition they lost, but now they hope to claim their first major scalp when their county cousins visit Beechwood Park in the fourth round. This is the seventh season the Talbot have competed in the Scottish Cup since it was revamped to include Scottish Junior Cup winners and the junior league champions. Their most notable appearance was in January 2012 when they lost to Hearts at Tynecastle by a solitary goal. It ended controversially when a last-minute goal by Gordon Pope was incorrectly ruled out for offside, therefore denying Talbot a replay. Not Rangers news but I know there is a few Talbot fans on here so will move it to general football tomorrow.

He is rehabilitating from a long term injury so didn't play. He is quite popular though.?

I think you will need to get used to it because it will come.

Awe well I guess it is FC Twente then. Just for Gunslinger.

I doubt they will confirm it is on but they would announce it being postponed. ?

New evidence has been found that rangers have had a spy watching Celtic training at Lennoxtown. (stolen from FF)

I am pretty sure Gerrard said Friday was too early for Goldson so he won't be playing. i would bring in Foderingham as i don't think a keeper will get a lot of sharpness from this game. Gerrard also said that Barasic would appear at some time so maybe Halliday until the 60 minute mark. I would put lafferty and Defoe up front and keep Morelos and Kent for a runabout on Sunday. Don't risk them in a cold high risk of injury game.

That is what makes the winter break so stupid.

Sounds like the wife although she is probably colder.

Weather watch on FF is saying it is not freezing due to cloud cover. Tomorrow the covers are going off at 11am and it is +2\3 degrees so should be okay.

Have Celtic had their 6000 pound fine yet.

Don't be daft we do not have one player good enough for the Celtic team.

The guy saying his father telling him to keep his hands up brought back memories as my father used to tell me to keep my arms crossed in front of my chest. The shouts trying to stop people pushing from behind are another thing stick in my mind. The surprising thing is that it took so long for an accident to happen as it was literally an accident waiting to happen. I have said before that was my first OF game but thankfully I was only allowed to go as I could use my uncles season ticket for the main stand. Thankfully as I used the Haugh ferry that was the stairs that I would have been on.

I am not sure if this has been posted before as I haven't seen it. If it has I will delete it later.

Do you not consider that we are interested in Messi as a big deal.

I used to love us playing in the blue and white stripes. It is better than the white with the sash.

I can only say any info on here you and indeed Craig have given us recently has been kept private until it was common knowledge.

Anything to do with Tony Fitzpatrick?

I put my name in for Livingston but if anyone would like to do that especially then it is no problem. A few more names would be great as games are coming thick and fast.

Thanks i thought he was smaller.

And I totally agree with him. McCrorie was a bomb-scare as centre-back and not really tall enough. He is my first pick in the midfield in that more defensive role.
