  1. Devastating news. I was heading to bed when I jumped on twitter and was floored with the news. Bawled my eyes out and again when I woke up the next morning. There will probably never be anyone like him ever again. We'll no longer be able to see him on RTV and say to ourselves "aww there's Walter" accompanied with that warm feeling of security. This will take a long time to heal. We've lost our Rangers dad??

  2. Happy with the result. They're a very capable side but we've seen enough to know we can take them at home providing we play to our capabilities. 

    Thought Hellander was outstanding, Patterson is growing with each game, Kamara put in some shift and Mcgregor - one of the best saves I've ever seen. 

  3. The system is a joke and has clear flaws. Let's focus on the Roofe incident. It's a red card, it's reckless and dangerous albeit non violent conduct. The referee books him(coming back to this). 

    The incident is flagged by whomever as well as given maximum exposure on Tbs and from there the CO goes to the ref asking if he saw all of the incident. 

    This is to me coercion. In asking the referee this question it indicates to him his mistake is apparent and has been highlighted. Natural instinct is to protect himself in many if not all occasions. 

    But the question should also be raised of if you didn't see all of the incident then how can you constitute that it is a yellow card offence? Makes absolutely no sense at all and makes you wonder just how much peer pressure was in his ears inside the corridors of the sfa to "have another few looks at it, are you sure about this one son?" 

     

    Of course there's plenty not being cited. St Johnston boy on Roofe earlier in the season, the lad for Hamilton on goldson just last week where he's looking at the goldson before he delivers a forearm/elbow... (Alfie was done for pretty much the same and one of the reasons was it was premeditated), Kane for St Johnston with a reckless studs up challenge on Davis in the recent game at Ibrox, nothing done there... 

    The whole thing is a disgrace and I'm sure the club will be doing all they can to make changes but not holding my breath.

    I can’t make out a word of that other than his name.

     

    i think we need the old bouncing ball on the lyrics added to the clip!

    So long as that wee bouncing ball isn't Andy Cameron's heid?

    Regards the comment on STV by Maxwell "the Compliance Officer may look at it"!!!

    The Compliance Officer will look at anything that has nothing to do with Sceptic but of them no chance.

    Still waiting on Lennon being cited by the CO for his interviews regarding the referees decision to send Bitton off in the OF game. I'm not holding my breath... 

  6. As a fan this is working out as I'd hoped. I said to my step dad in the weeks leading up to the OF how I'd like it to pan out. 

    I wanted them to go on a mini run and then lose to us at Ibrox because it would hurt them more. 

    In essence, the fact they played really well for 40 odd minutes and still couldn't score, then we go on to win was an extra dagger I wasn't expecting but most welcomed. 

    Now what I want to see is us emptying the tank. The next block of 4 is crucial. If we show we can consolidate the Ibrox win, it will burn them more. 

    It's so much about the mental aspect during this stage. 

    Nothing is done yet but we need to keep chipping away because it's two fold... It gets us closer to 55 and at the same time throws them further into chaos!

  7. I see us probably going to our European style for this game being happy to hit them on the counter. Midfield is going to be absolutely key, as usually is. My only slight concern is with Jack and Arfield out we have plenty of skill and endeavour but perhaps lack bite in the tackle. If it becomes a cluster fuck in that midfield it may suit them giving that they'll be trying to break our rhythm. 

    We need to play it smart, they need the win so we don't have to hammer and tongs it leaving ourselves open. Hoping we draw them out and pick them off from there. I'm confident that with the front 3's movement they'll be all over the place. 

    Go for the win but pick our moments. 

     

  8. Slight bit of squeeky bum time at the end and not because they offered anything second half, more incase they got a lucky one. 

    Fantastic result against hammer throwers and a pitch that cut up badly. 

    Poor Alfie had a mare, it just won't drop for him. 

    Great free kick and header from Tav and Goldson, our captain and vice captain stood up for us today. Job done!
