  1. get rid of velicka asap, need to keep mcculloch probably till january just incase kt and edu dont get up to speed quick enough.

    after beasleys performance at the emirates the only way he is leaving is a free transfer or on loan.

    steven smith deserves a chance, you cannot judge someone on how they played when they came back into the team out of position.

  2. No , Its just a lazy theory with no insight given to it. How would it help the situation? For a start if you amalgamate local clubs you are taking away their biggest games crowd wise. Imagine Arbroath, Montrose, Brechin and Forfar all becoming North East Thistle? Where would they play? Less people would go than are watching them just now and you've taken away the bigger derby crowds of Forfar V Brechin, Arbroath V Montrose etc. I believe the two Bottom Divisions in Scotland take about 3 million a year out of the coffers, if they didnt exist and that £3 Million was paid only to the top 2 divisions then Rangers would get an extra 150k a year...How would that help Rangers move forward?? Most clubs outwith the top two divisions are run well and should be left alone. The clubs who are in danger of going out the game are mostly in the top two divisions. I also think all the junior clubs should be allowed in the Scottish cup.

    Some may argue that we cant compete in the CL so should we merge with Glasgows second club Queens Park to give us more chance of winning the CL? same story

    how is there no insight into it, i researched the populations. it is pub banter not a thesis i am taking to the sfa.

    im not suggesting mergers of teams, that is ridiculous. i would never support a merged team of Q.O.S, Berwick, Annan and Stranraer and wouldnt expect any local person to do the same.

    sorry for sounding american but the most profitable franchises should be kept in the proffessional leagues and the rest moved into regional leagues or the juniors.

    it is not just the fact that junior teams are getting bigger gates than some sfl clubs, they are spending more cash on players too.

  3. When i was in the pub on sunday, i was discussing part of the reason i feel there is no money is Scottish football is there are far too many pro clubs, if im right there are 42 clubs in the leagues drawing support from a possible 5mill population.

    there are only 13 clubs in greater london getting fans from 9 million.

    is a possible restructing of say two leagues of 14-16 out of the question to boost cash, push the rest of the teams into the juniors and or south and east leagues.

    sounds unfair to the smaller teams but for the greater good of the game it might be worth considering

  4. was just watching an old dvd the other day (5 in a row) and the first game i attended was on there - 3-1 against partick thistle- at ibrox with gary mcswagen scoring the 1st goal.

    that got me thinking what was the 1st goal everbody else witnessed at the'brox??

    could you do me a favour and tell me who scored in the 2-2 draw at ibrox with raith rovers, as that was my 1st ever game it was in 5 in a row season. will always remember the day not for the shit result but for stuffing my fat little face with mr whippy ice cream and puking on the bus home. my dad had to buy everyone a pint when we got home to apologise for 85 smelly miles

  5. should definently get something going, i sat in the govan rear for 5 seasons, great view but very quiet except old firm and european, and the east corner is exactly the same.

    moved to govan front this season which is apparently the same.

    i liked what they did at the end of the season tried to get all the atmosphere in one stand where you could swap your seats. possibly an idea which should be expanded to all games and use copland stand for this purpose

  6. flying down on half 6 flight glasgow to gatwick on sat morning and back on sunday night, staying in etap straight across from the ground.

    madeline's is 13 miles from that hotel according to google maps, so say £25 in a private hire.

  7. Sevilla

    Sporting CP

    RANGERS

    Levski Sofia

    The ideal draw :D

    id take that draw happily, like the fact the beggars could get chelsea, real and juventus as a group.

    my group for trips away though would be bayern, real, gers and a scandinavian team. would absolutely love to go to the bernabeu

  8. 1. Rangers

    2. Scum

    3. Hearts

    4. Dundee Utd

    5. Sheep

    6. Kilmarnock

    7. Hibs

    8. Motherwell

    9. St Jognstone

    10. Hamilton

    11. St Mirren

    12. Falkirk

    I THINK KILLIE WILL REALY STRUGGLE THIS YEAR IMO

    i think killie will be suprise package this year, thought they really improved in second half of last season, and reckon kyle will do a bit of damage in the spl

  9. met mccoist signed top and got a photo with no hassle

    andy goram at league cup final against dundee utd and managed to get a pint of him

    met maurice ross(who was a prick), steven thompson, stephen hughes and emerson in trash

    the place to meet the players is sainsburys on woodlands road over the years met caniggia, arteta, mccann, bougherra, numan, beasley, edu and frank de boer all in the same shop.

  10. thomson is the ideal candidate, prefer captains to be centre backs or holding midfielders. so they tend to sit behind the play and drive the team forward, rather than pulling the team forward. also want captain to be scottish.

    if he captains us more chance of getting him as scotland captain in a couple of years, instead of caldwell, mcmanus or brown
