  1. I am meeting a civi mate from back home who will be doing the run with me. The Mrs is coming along too after she heard it was the Spa Capital of Europe ,,,so yeh will have to try and no get caught eyeing up these supposedly hot Hungarian burds then lol
  2. Awesome guys cheers,,, there is always someone who has been,,, hoping to catch game tom,, and if finish in time catch the game on sunday too,,, even if i need carried in,, be a change fm carried out lol
  3. Prob a bit of a long shot but you never know on here. I'm travelling to Budapest tom and was wondering if any bears have been and might know of any bars that might have the game on ? Expecting to be a bit of an outcast as well as with their History I would expect the locals all to be cheering on Rapid lol. Also in case anyone is interested,,, reason I am going is to run the Marathon on Sunday for the Royal Air Force Association Wings Appeal. As I'm in the RAF and its the Service 100 yr anniversary year,, thought I would try and do something to mark it. Any donations most appreciated and go to a very worthy cause. Just hope I don't get beaten up by some mad Hungarians before even getting to the race lol. https://mydonate.bt.com/fundraisers/johnsteven1
  4. Mixed feelings the day watching at home. Contacted the SLO at start of the season and asked about any plans to mark Battle of Britain Day on the 15th Sep,,, as it is the RAF 100 yr. Tbf he replied a couple of times and forwarded on the emails to the charity foundation,, then never heard anything after that. I couldn't have made it up the day anyway once it got moved to the Sunday,, but have had lads at RAF Boulmer asking if I ever got anything back. Missed last year as well as had to go short notice to the Falklands,,,, maybe next year then. ?
  5. Exactly mate. In the Russian game when we were leading I kept thinking,, just roll it out and pass around a bit and take the sting out the game. We were in a comfortable position and had no reason to be punting it long. I can only guess as he was constantly doing it that he has been instructed to do it.
  6. Now the dust has settled a bit from Sunday and we can start thinking more about moving on and the games ahead. The one thing in all the games recently I think that has me the most concerned is that long punt up field we seem to have gone back to. I know we lost the midfield battle and a lot of tiredness was clearly visible,, but how can you win a midfield battle or gain any possession or a rest bite when you bypass then completely by knocking it over their heads? We did it too in the game against the Russians. Its no surprise then that the opposition will then just keep coming back at you. Now we have defended for the most really well, but at times I think we are making it harder for ourselves than we need to. I watched Shagger on Sunday and the Russian game and he was terrific,, dont get me wrong. But I dont think I seen him roll a ball out to the defence once. At every opportunity it was a long punt.
  7. Tbh Morelos doesn't even have to raise his hands or do anything to be accused of descent,,, one look with them crazy eyes of his is more than enough.
  8. Mate you have to be friends with someone on Facebook who is on there for them to be able to add you. Otherwise you would have to get someone on here thats on it to add you on their facebook friends list first,,, assuming you are on facebook.
  9. Have only tried them the once,, was the St Mirren game I think,,, was like 15 mins or even more that day in starting,,, and then when it did it kept freezing up and you could see the guy switching the feed to another stream link. That one always started a few more mins behind and forced u to watch what you had already just seen. Was like watching on the worst acid trip ever. Put up wae for another 5 mins then logged my VPN and jumped back over to RTV. Haven't used it them since,,,,, although one of my mates swears by them so maybe just got them on a bad day,
  10. Has he ever played in LCB ? I know some full backs move into that role when they no longer have the pace full back requires. He is over 6ft so perhaps could be trained for it,, Just a thought, would obviously still prefer another CB in before the window shuts.
  11. Couldn't agree more with the OP. He works hard (cant fault him there) ,, has the pace and is direct but lacks the situational awareness or skill to provide anything meaningful to his end game. At times just runs aroon like a headless chicken. I know its early but cant see him being a big player for us tbh. Its probably that old thing the Manager brought him in and as one of his own ,, is maybe more wanting him to do well rather than admit he aint. Middleton in what I have seen so far ,, seems a lot more dangerous and gets the ball into the box far quicker than Kent. Something that could well pay off this season now with a big target man like Lafferty in that box. I was actually screaming at the screen before the second half even started to either bring on Middleton or even Lafferty down than left instead of him. Time will tell I guess,,, but in the OF I think I would rather play Lafferty down the left to start with.
  12. aye ,, https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Neftyanik_Stadium
  13. Can Barisic no play further forward down the left wae flanagan covering LB area as well?
  14. Hope its an option to buy with a set fee pre agreed between the clubs,,, first option is all well and good, but if he just keeps getting better and better and having a great season with us then his value will rise along with it also
  15. Some of the shite Morelos is getting its little wonder he would want to go or his confidence is low. The lads a kid, who is still learning ffs,,, its not his fault he is our only main striker and a whole team is depending on him, quite a lot for any young lad to take on at a big club tbh. Why as a support are we always so quick to jump all over strikers. ,, and yet some that just run around get away scot free,, remember Sebo?,,, Morelos last season was one of the few that did run around all game and try, but still got stick and yet unlike Sebo was top scorer. Fuck even Marco Negri got shite because he didn't smile enough when he scored. We do need another striker to take some of the pressure off,,, hope this Sadiq will help but would rather someone with a bit of experience up there to help them both out.
  16. Saw an article on FB that says the absolute maximum is a 10k fine and a one year suspension from Football. You can bet if there is any chance in hell they they could ban us for a year and help their beloved club onto yet another tainted title closer to 10IAR then they will.
  17. Dont expect those kind of comments from a Rangers supporter,, even joking. Have you forgotten Arnold Peralta ?
  18. SPFL and Doncaster hoping to double their money on new TV deal now Gerrard is our Manager. Not surprised really. Can anyone remember what the current deal gives us? I recall the tv deals got restructured when we went into Div3. The other clubs out with them were demanding a more even share having most money previously been dished out between us and celtic. Dont remember now what the final outcome was and what we get as our cut. I'm sure we will be committed in the contract to go along with whatever "new deal" they can scrounge up. I hope we are not missing an opportunity tho, what with us having our own TV channel etc? Perhaps even just outwith the UK as there will be interest from Gerrrard fans now globally watching on. https://www.sundaypost.com/fp/spfl-hope-to-almost-double-tv-revenue-with-the-arrival-of-steven-gerrard-at-Rangers/
  19. I know but it was his dosh that kicked on the revolution,, that being my point
  20. Just a thought ,, what IF SDM was wanting back,, was it not rumoured not long ago and that he was wanting his son placed on the Board ? He steps back in to the mix and we appoint SG as manager,,, the whole thing sounds Souness esc . Perhaps out of guilt or wanting to make amends ,, or out of pure ego as 9IAR was his biggest achievement and he cant stand to see them get 10IAR either Imagine tho the timplosion that would cause. Its my Birthday the day so excuse the over optimism lol
  21. I wouldn't even let him back near the youths after his performance and comments today. Starting to see why so many of our recent youth players breaking into the team over the past few season have had attitude and fucked off first chance they got ,, Discipline obviously not being enforced from the get go,, if he's too scared of confrontation and causing conflict then he is the wrong line of work.
  22. Agree ,, but think with Walter on board would be all that is required to assist Murty ,, and then he could leave him to it after 10- iar is halted
  23. Whatf Dont think we even need that much in the form of money or signings (keeping the loans) to be competitive next season. Where would be now if not for all the points dropped by Cainxha ? New Manager is too much of a gamble,, could come in with their own new players and set us right back again IMO Ask Walter to come back in some form of Staff role,,, its win win,, Keep Murty and let him learn his new trade from one of the best,, all the while Walter ensures we get the best out of the team. Walter is Rangers through and through and wont want to see celtic run away with 10 iar any more than any of us. If the Man is interested in working with us (and he can pick his hours lol ) then its a no brainer ,,, him and Murty nest season and we would win 55 celtic and Brendan are shite ,,
