Norris Cole 0 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I'm going to go for early doors, to settle the foaming hordes. Within the first 15 minutes. A Rangers red card is also an absolute given. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 743 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 It doesnt matter, Id be very confident McGregor would save it anyway. A Rangers win with 10 men and McGregor saving a pen would be even sweeter. If that happens we'd just have to watch out for mhanks dropping from the top tier. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

26th of foot 5,874 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 I remember 15 years ago, the then Sellik correspondent for the Evening Times was a rabid Yahoo, Ian McGarry. He was extremely frustrated at his beloved green'n'grey hoops lack of success at Ibrox. In the build up to an upcoming old firm match at the Stadium, he had a screaming back page headline, 'No Penalty for Six Years'. In a 6 year period over 11 games at Ibrox, ra Sellik had not received a penalty. You've guessed it, the ensuing game saw ra Sellik awarded a penalty, converted by John Collins. McGarry's back page headline on the Monday after the game was, 'Celtic End Six Year wait'. Further, he had comments from the likes of Billy McBungle, Tommy Burns, Brian Dempsey, Wullie Haughey, ... etc; all stating this was a most unusual occurance. Dempsey hinted at pernicious reasoning, an unquantifiable sinister hand, backing it up with, "all Celtic supporters are a aware of a litany of unawarded spot kicks". The scorer, John Collins advanced, "six years, I didn't know that, too long, far too long". Anyway, McGarry is now at the English version of the Daily Mail, I wonder what he would say to a run of 20 league games and a couple of cup ties; 22 matches at least without the award of a penalty to Rangers? Maybe his current successor at the Evening Times, Ronnie Culley will run the story, with accompanying quotes from interested parties of course. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Norris Cole 0 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 It would be interesting to know the number of penalty kicks the bheasts have been awarded in OF games since we last had one. Around six or seven? McGeady at Ibrox last season springs to mind fairly quickly, as does the bheasts whinging after the match that they didn't get two more . We can't ever have gone a decade without getting a penalty in an OF match before, and this in an era when we play them around 5 times a season. There will be 10-year-old Rangers fans who have never seen their team take a penalty against the glue-sniffers, and some people still don't think there's an agenda... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We've had 3 at Ibrox since 2000 and one at Hampden but none at Parkhead. Our last penalty was at Ibrox 3 years ago tomorrow and Celtic have had two since. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Danny 0 Posted October 19, 2010 Share Posted October 19, 2010 After all, unlike McCurry the Celtic fans can't sing sectarian songs about him. The NotW won't be able to print exposes about him either! If he does something timmy doesn't like, he will be chanted as a mason. The facts of his background are completely irrelevant to football fans. If a protestant ref took charge of an OF game and gave a bad call against us, we'd be calling him a ******. Football supporters rarely scrutinise facts - they just give out abuse. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
