I just hope we get a fair crack of the whip as the bigger the signing the bigger the target will be on his back by the hammer throwers. We all know teams try harder against us than they do against others and you only have to look at the tackles on Dorrans and Jack that went unpunished plus the disgraceful tackle on Rossiter to see what we will be up against next season if we sign top quality. If refs don't stamp out these tackles early in the season then no matter how good a manager Gerrard is if half our team is out injured then we will struggle and that is more of a concern to me than Gerrard being our manager

Joined Barton at Fleetwood

Probably tried to put gagging order on Miller but as his contact was coming to an end he would of refused to sign it

There was an article in the Sunday post a while back done by a reporter who was very good friends with the then hivs chairman. The chairman told the reporter in confidence what was going on and said he didn't want the clubs name dragged through the mud and that no parent would allow their kids to go there if they knew what was going on and so didn't report it to the police allowing Neely to come to our club without us knowing about what happened at hivs

Would have loved it if he had said " due to continued attacks on my club by the sfa I don't want to be considered for selection while the attacks continue "

http://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/news/16230547.___No_live_investigation____in_connection_with_Rangers_coach_Gordon_Neely_and_abuse_claims/ POLICE have said there is no live investigation in connection with coach Gordon Neely and claims of abuse while he was at Rangers. It comes after a former youth footballer spoke out to make a new claim that he was sexually abused by the coach while at Rangers and was reportedly told by the club he should pursue his complaint with liquidators. The man claims he was abused within the Ibrox stadium by Gordon Neely who was head of youth development in the 1980s. Rangers said they would “co-operate fully” with all those who had a “genuine interest” in seeking to protect children and “addressing the wrongs” of what had happened in the past

Do we have our own lawyer employed by the club ? If not then we should as it would be far cheaper than paying a law firm since we are under attack on a regular basis

Preliminary hearing is today who would have thought it. is it just the rhabid bbc who are running with the Neely story ? If so pretty clear they're trying to deflect from the convicted paedo being in court again. Be interesting to see if they report on the news

If the English FA start dishing out heavy punishments to clubs then the SFA will have no option but to do the same. I know what my punishment would be 1 league demotion for every coach convicted and let the scum be demoted all the way to the lowland league. Paedo fc are not the only offenders in this so if they let them off they have to let others off as well so how would that look. The sfa changed their rules to punish clubs so surely they wouldn't sweep this under the carpet no matter how much they want to.

Quite the opposite unless there is a new one which I've never heard. After Torbetts conviction the rules changed to say that clubs would be responsible for kids in their boys clubs and clubs would be punished if they didn't look after their welfare.

That wasn't all the fouls as in the 1st 15 mins we were given 3 fouls where we had an advantage and that prick ref blew for a foul instead of playing on.

For all warburton a possession based football we didn't have the 3 or 4 players with quality who could open up teams once they sussed us out. If we can get players who can do that then who knows

He was subbed with 25 min to go

yeah saw an interview with him and he said as soon as a new player came into the dressing room he watched them closely to see if their attitude and standards matched his. No one will last long with him in charge if he sees they are not giving everything.

He said post match interview he's been fit since Feb so that's probably the longest he's been fit since he's been here. He must be optimistic his long term injury problems are behind him.

Apart from 2 on the bench not starting not much else he could with injuries and suspensions.

never noticed at the time how close the ref i mean cheat was.

Hope Cummings spat in the bottle when he was finished.

Morelos, Jack and Mccrorie didn't start today.

Add the perfectly good goal against hearts that would have turned a draw into a win early in the season. The Stokes assault on tav that would have turned a defeat into at least a draw. The penalty that wasn't given against the taigs when it was 0 0 when Morelos was tripped in the box. The numerous red cards for Jack which were overturned but especially the one where he was sent off against Killie and they then equalised in the last min. The list is endless.

Is 1st round not regionalised ?

Yeah let's just not try In Europe we don't need euro money just to break even so why bother with the inconvenience of it

Gerrard will be pulling his hair out next season due to refs incompetence

He gave fouls every time we had an advantage and missed a stonewaller
