  1. Thanks guys, this is the first of me paying attention to the youth squad this season, as the main squad has been my main check when online.
  2. Surprised to see Luca on the bench. Starting to think he is well down the pecking order now.
  3. Were you at the game? Did you see his work rate? With Mark stating he likes to run a light squad in terms of numbers, I think Miller could prove to be a very useful player; even if its from the bench. Season has not even started yet and already we have some slating the players - absolutely pathetic.
  4. Are we questioning the manager already?
  5. Travernier was the stand out for me. I am not sure if it is just about the fact we have been crying out for a decent right back for a long time or he was simply fantastic, but wither way we are looking good in that position; with Aird and another youth as cover. Halliday looked eager but it showed in his touch. Not a sign of a bad player, just a sign of a lifetime fan shitting himself as he realises his dream - he will settle. McKay needs to invest in a flag, which he can wave when he is in open space. The amount of times we played through the middle and lost the ball, when he was wide and open was unreal. Foderingham needs to compose himself and watch his passes across the defence. Some nearly gave me a bloody heart attack. Apart from that, he looks good. All in all it was a good game with encouraging signs, topped off with a fantastic day overall. The Louden was superb, albeit the wife was slightly worse for wear as we were in a Glasgow Karaoke bar until 3am and I dragged her out for a liquid lunch, so she was mostly propping the bar up with her half cider.
  6. Youth scouts are quite easy to sort, I would imagine. I know of a man who did it for Man City many moons ago and they had a fair few so I am told. I am guessing we would have people looking out for us in every region of Scotland, including coaches of youth organisations.
  7. I agree with you but I am saying that our expectations should not change in year one and the objective was always to be promoted. I hope to hell we start thrashing these teams but that is hope and not expectation.
  8. Typical. We go from being absolute pish under a pish manager to expecting a full on romp of the league and atleast one cup from a new manager and squad. How about we just let the manager and team do what is needed to win this league and get us to where we want to be, with anything else being a bonus?
  9. Yep, 100% agree. I have not been a loyal supporter for a while now - I have not slept with a tim in case you ask - and this is really landed at the right time where I promised a city break to the wife and I just managed to insert this game into the breaks itinerary. That said, had I still had my ST, I would have been at this with my son and if it were not a city break with the wife, I would have been with my son as well. I see this as a game to welcome our new man to his helm and clear the air for all 2014/15 players, whilst welcoming the new.
  10. Did not see the other thread - please delete
  11. You talking about the Louden? Having been away from the action for a while I have been starved of it and the atmosphere, so I will be there nice and early.
  12. I understand it, to be fair and sometimes wondered why so many adults were in the stand with no sign of a child - thinking that they could be taking seats from kids. It's a good rule and not complaining, as I shall experience a different view to that of which I am used to and I cannie fucking wait lol!
  13. Having never drank at Ibrox and aiming to do on Tuesday, I was looking for details on this but the website only lists The Ibrox Bar - is this one in the same? The reason I ask is I thought you had to pay to get in but it states any fan with a ticket can enter. Louden is my first stop 'tho :-)
  14. Our old ST seats were available in BR2 and I immediately wanted to buy for Tuesday but as my sprog is now 18, I could not buy. The wife and I will be sat in Sandy's stand for the first time and my thoughts will be with the man when I take to my seat.
  15. The Louden will be seeing us on Tuesday, for the first time. As an adult supporter, I have always drove to the games, so no pub action, and the fact we shall be Subway Loyal on Tuesday means it's a sash bash for me.
  16. I don't get to many games these days but I will be at Ibrox on Tuesday. The £10 ticket fee is a bonus, the real reason I am going is that I love Rangers FC and I have forsaken them for my sons football and now his refereeing career. Ironically, I am taking my wife with me and we shall stay in Glasgow overnight - party!
  17. With the shite that MW and DW have to sort out, surely you can allow him one pre-season without an away tour? He is most likely worried that the players might need gel before being in front of the fans?
  18. To be fair, I had to google his number again as I got it from the official RFC supporters clubs list but I get you.
  19. Welcome to Fife. I am just up the road in Glenrothes. Fife Loyal bus makes many stops and I tried it from Glenrothes before opting to drive. A mate of mine uses it all the time, and he lives in Glenrothes but he likes to drink in Eddies bar in Kirkcaldy - the base of the SC. Contact Alfie on PM'd number
  20. I beg to differ. If they are not free agents in July, they are contracted and thus the club are happy to keep. January see's the players that have proved to their manager that they are not quite what they are after and/or they need to free up wages to sign those who are, thus January sales and there are plenty to be had.
