A great achievement hitting 100 for the Teds. Who was the last bear to hit 100 for us?

Totally spot on. Wish I could say it better myself.

I've always been under the impression there has been some sort of personality clash between Smith and Boyd since the beginning of last season. Even when Boyd scored the 2 goals that saved us an embarrassing defeat to United in the CIS Cup final and then went on to score the winning penalty, Smith failed to acknowledge Boyd's contribution, when usually any other manager would have been lording him up to the high heavens for winning Rangers the cup and having the token photograph with the match winner that is often the case in these situations. He then doesn't acknowledge Boyd again after his goals in the Scottish Cup final. It can be argued, that Boyd saved Watties job with the two cups he won us last year, Smiths under enough pressure as it is with these to trophies, can you imagine the people calling for his head just now after our dismal performances in certain league games this season and the Kaunas debacle? I can't help but think Boyds contribution in the cups last season saved Wattie big time. It is very rarely you hear Walter praising Smith, despite the fact, Boydies goals have kept us in the hunt(I don't buy into the argument that anyone could have scored these goals.), praising him for his contribution this season in terms of goals without adding a negative on the end of every sentence. The way Boyd was treated in January was shocking from Smith, the stance over the transfer saga, where it looked as though Boyd was being forced out from my view and Smith showing no loyalty to the big man, but when it came to Mendes I'm sure he'd have pleaded to Murray not to let go of him(and rightly so.) We also seen Boyd dropped from the starting line-up at Pittodrie and Parkhead, which to me seemed very unjust and demoralising for him. I can't believe that no one can see how the events of January are primarily the reason for Boyd going off form, after a phenomenal first half of the season. Your not going to raise the guys morale by dropping him for games and showing little faith in him, it's only going to make the problem worse. I can't see Boyd staying at the end of the season. But I think if he goes the only people missing him will be Rangers. Theres only one person I'd like to see move on at the end of the season, and it isnt Boyd. Maybe it's time for Wattie to make a permanent move up the stairs and hand the reigns over to someonelse who has better man management skills... and tactical skills! I'd like to hope Boyd does a Coisty and bides his time til the current manager does the off.

You're no a spud-picker are you...? Certainly not... Ayrshire only!

Supposedly theres a picture of Eva Longoria above Allan McGregors peg!

I clicked none - Rangers need a bigger and better sponsor deal than they are on just now and as much as i am for Rangers supporting charities such as UNICEF, we need the money to improve help our financial difficulities.

It's time for Walter Smith to show us he has the bottle, 4-5-1 is pure stupidity, and so is playing an injured+off-form Miller

So much for the 'impartial' bbc!

Willie Collum is a complete arse. Only a few seasons ago I was watching him fuck things up every week in the juniors(I'm a Pollok fan) and now hes doing the exact same in the SPL. He was fast tracked to the top flight due to the influence of his uncle Willie Young.

Better than Gavin Rae?
