Yes, I think that's right. Or perhaps Sands should be the deep midfielder anyway. Lundstram just seems to contribute more when allowed to move further forward.

Yeah the balance looks better with those two and sands as the deeper lying.

he became first choice Let CB though not lb. 

He was first choice LB who out of necessity was moved to CB

Go right across the whole back line and they are all hopeless at defending not one of them are up to scratch.

lol, he was on the pitch for 8 minutes.  Borna gets some amount of abuse, seems to be the new whipping boy (not from you specifically, but the support in general) yet he actually played really well on Saturday and, indeed, created our 3rd to make the game safe.

What to lol about? It was't a go at Borna, just my impression from what I saw of Ridvan so far, with us and before.

Barasic played 5 games less than Bassey last year at 48 games.

If there's a point to this, why not cut everyone a break and plainly state it.

Oh I don't disagree at all.  Am I offended by their banner ?  Not at all.  Indeed, I chuckled at how poor an attempt it was. 

 

However, it is the lopsidedness that has people all bent out of shape.  If that was Kill all (add any Celtic adage) then the usual suspects would be all over it in an attempt to paint Rangers fans as bad.  This will be met with "it is just craic" or "it isnt that bad".

 

They created the hate crime bill (which is an abomination in itself) - but if they have introduced it as law then they should be enforcing that law !

 

I have heard that Rangers have made a complaint to Police Scotland asking how the banner was allowed to be brought into the stadium and why it was removed when it was displayed. 

 

I had my 11 year old boy with me on Saturday and he had a rucksack with him that had his hat, scarf, crisps etc and we / he had it searched before going into the game. Yet Aberdeen fans manged to "smuggle" a large flag in!

The sheep had a medium sized banner, which wouldn't be too difficult to conceal.

 

Stewards don't get paid enough and there are simply too many fans to do thorough searches, which I'm glad about because I regularly take a hip flask to matches.
