Score early, then fuck around like it was a day at the beach. I've seen this movie a few times before. Spoiler alert: it often doesn't end well.

I don't know why you missed out golf.

I'm sorry, but our defence, really, is a fucking joke.

Goldson up front?

Ally Robertson?

I have wondered, on a few occasions, whether GvB & Co look upon this season as a 'free hit', one on which they may not be judged. They took over, mid-term, a team which was not playing to its full potential, and have had only a Jan window in which to operate. The results in Europe have been, at the least, acceptable, those domestically, not, and by a very long way. The question is, of course, if we end up potless, not a proposition I should bet against, is GvB to be entrusted with building his own side?

Schooled,

Every ball into the box -every ball- has met, with unerring accuracy, a fhilth player or the fhilth goalkeeper. That takes talent.

Rangers look, or are being made to look, sluggish in body and in mind. I really don't know how you might resolve that, over a half time break. This could be an embarrassing second half. They might run out os steam, but that does not look likely, and, if they do, they could be home and hosed by the time it happens. A very disappointing performance, so far.

Never in doubt. It was the bog roll wot dun it.

A draw is no fucking use whatsoever.

Soft; then loft

We get dragged down to their level.

I think it was the opposition who had the momentum.

Imagine their reaction if Rangers was to meet West Ham in the Final. Actually, we don't have to, David Cronenberg has done it for us.....

If it's West ham, it will be billed as 'The Battle of Britain', and the whole of Scotland will behind Rangers, willing the team on to turn over the hated English (and cockneys to boot). Sorry.........oh.....really?

We got horsed by Eintracht Frankfurt, 6-3, in the European Cup semi-final in 1960. It would be nice to turn them over, now.

I can't see beyond the ageing maestro, who kept his head when what seemed like all around were losing theirs. Sterling stuff. I confess that I have questioned, somewhat severely, his selection on various occasions this season, but last night, and last week, he earned redemption.

You are probably correct. The officials' catechism reading, on page one: Rangers? Check. Morelos? Check.

Who is worse: Beaton or Rangers?

After the opening few minutes, Morelos was thew only one who looked like he could play football.

Evolution is often thought, wrongly, to be a straightforward linear progression through time. It is more complicated than that, and involves sidetracks, wrong turnings, dead ends, culs de sac, and the like. Isolated backwaters, and throwbacks, remain, even today.....

The Super Soaraway well, soars away Celtic Boys Club victims CAN sue Parkhead club over sexual abuse, judge rules James Mulholland 10:05, 1 Mar 2022 Updated: 10:19, 1 Mar 2022 https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/news/scottish-news/8503310/celtic-boys-club-victims-can-sue-sexual-abuse-judge/ A JUDGE has given the go ahead for sex abuse survivors to launch a multi million pound US style ‘class action’ lawsuit against Celtic FC. Lord Arthurson gave permission for 22 former Celtic Boys Club players to launch a compensation claim against the Parkhead club. Lord Arthurson said that the legal criteria for allowing the action to proceed had been met The judge gave the ruling after being addressed on Monday by advocate Ian Mackay QC. He represents men who were abused whilst playing for the youth side and they believe that they are entitled to compensation. Mr Mackay told Lord Arthurson that the two entities were “intimately connected” to each other - a claim denied by Celtic FC who say the two organisations were separate from each other. Lord Arthurson said that the legal criteria for allowing the action to proceed had been met. He said: “Having considered parties’ position on the supposed permission application, I am satisfied that the relevant criteria in granting this application has been established and I can exercise my discretion to grant the application. “The averments which the pursuers offer to prove set out a background in respect that each was a player with Celtic BC when they were subject to sexual assaults and when they were under the supervision and control of these individuals.” Lord Arthurson spoke during a virtual hearing of the Court of Session in an action in which 22 former players have come forward seeking compensation for being sexually assaulted whilst playing for Celtic Boys Club. They have brought “group proceedings” against Celtic FC PLC - the procedure is similar to US class action style litigations. On Monday, Mr Mackay told Lord Arthurson that lawyers for the men have uncovered evidence which shows apparent close links between Celtic Boys Club and Celtic FC. He said the evidence showed that the two entities were “intimately connected” and that his clients should be allowed to sue Celtic. Mr Mackay said: “Celtic Boys Club was intimately connected to Celtic Football Club - it was branded as being closely connected to Celtic Football Club. “Players played in Celtic strips and wore blazers which were virtually identical to those worn by Celtic FC players. “Football kit, holdalls and training gear were provided by Celtic Football Club. “The pursuers’ understanding was that they were playing for the boys club of Celtic Football Club. JUDGE RULING “Celtic Boys Club trained at Barrowfield, the training ground of Celtic Football Club and Celtic Park as well as elsewhere. “Celtic Football Club exercised control over who played for Celtic Boys Club because scouts recruited players who they considered were good enough to play for Celtic Football Club and diverted them to Celtic Football Club. “The Boys Club was a nursery for senior team players. Celtic Boys Club was in effect what could be now known as the academy of Celtic Football Club. “Articles about Celtic Boys Club appeared regularly in the Celtic View, the club’s newspaper - and the club was referred to as being part of the Celtic family. “Celtic is vicariously liable for assaults.” Roddy Dunlop QC, for Celtic FC, told Lord Arthurson that the action shouldn’t be allowed to proceed. He said his clients believed they wouldn’t get a “fair trial” because documents which would be key to their case that the boys club and Celtic FC were different entities were missing. On Tuesday, Lord Arthurson said the issues being faced by Celtic were not so great as to force the action to stop. Lord Arthurson also passed a court order prohibiting the identification of the people who have brought the legal action. He added: The common issue in the proceedings is the question of the vicarious liability of the defenders for the actions of these individuals. The court accordingly grants the permission application.”
