It’s like a having Ted McMinn XI. Never know what the hell is going to happen.

Half full, we had players returning from injury, think he hoped to contain, play the subs to take a win in the 2nd half.
im not sure if he had gambled from the start, whether they would have bottled if we had gone maybe one or 2 up then had to play that starting 11 in the 2nd half.
Handball rule needs overhauling, an Tavs pass for their opening goal…
We all know we need a clear out, but still take where we are now compared to when the Gaffer came in.

I'll give the team a lot of credit.
I said at half time that we were facing our biggest 45 mins domestically in well over a decade.
We stood up and salvaged something that looked a lost cause at half time.

Fucking hell this place just reeks of defeatism.
is it our strongest team? Of course not but give the team a fucking chance to prove themselves before giving up on it

I often get asked if I enjoy my work as a Football Agent.

Of course, there are times when it’s incredibly mentally and physically challenging. Much like a player, but in a hugely different context.

But there are times when it’s the best, and I mean the best job in the world. Just like last night:

Benfica v Rangers in Lisbon, last 16 of the Europa League 1st leg - which ended, against the odds, 2-2 with Benfica coming from behind twice (with two gifted goals from Rangers).

Dujon Sterling, who as many know, I have looked after for 9 years since 15 years old, scored his first senior goal in 137 attempts (I’ve probably watched most of those games!) What a goal, what a new memory. An many also know, in 2020, Dujon’s career was so nearly ended by a sudden illness, that kept him out the game for 10 months.

What struck me as it went in, standing on my own amongst 3,500 delirious Rangers fans, was what it meant to so many others.

To Dujon: it was his reward for the battle he won in 2020 and never giving in.

To his Mum: a moment that emotionally rewarded her for the countless hours since he joined Chelsea at 6 years old for her love and support every step (or run) he made.

To the coaches and staff of various clubs/ England (to many to name): a wonderful sense of joy for Dujon knowing his journey and the part they played at some point. My phone went crazy as he scored.

To everyone at Rangers (staff/teammates): it’s a team effort from start to finish and a measure of the hard work put in by all.

To those partners behind the scenes (the boot companies, the lawyers, accountants, concierge, insurance, mortgage advisors, barbers, car salesman (endless list!) who know Dujon.

To the media/ journalists: you know who you are and who have never doubted his ability and spoken about it.

To the fans past and present: an unreal bond through thick and thin. Rangers love him coz he gives 100%. He is an elite talent. The fan next to me last night was drunk with a thick Glaswegian accent. Couldn’t understand a single word for 90 mins but when Dujon scored he jumped on me, hit me in the stomach and kissed me 😂 another very special moment.

To Dujon’s close knit friends, in and out of the game: you never doubted.

To my wife, family, friends: thank you for understanding and being there. Countless messages as the goal went in.

To my other clients/ their families/ colleagues: again loads of messages/calls sharing the happiness of the goal.

Football is the biggest sport in the world. It forms part of the wheel of life for so many, for most of their lives. It’s a tough workplace for all involved.

But moments like last night, make it so, so satisfying….and enjoyable 😉

Have a good day everyone. And never stop believing ⚽️ 💙

P.S. in the 2nd leg next week Benfica will experience Ibrox at its firey best. Can’t wait. ✔️
 
 

I know the boy and was telling some of the boys from here about it earlier. What a fucking tragic waste of life, 2 young kids as well 

Didn't think of the lurkers to be honest.
Dear the aforementioned,
Hahahahahahahahahahahaha
P.s:

A manager who knows how to change a game while it's still winnable instead of one who sits like a fanny at a presser afterwards going, "We made mistakes and we'll learn from them."
On yersel big man, no surrender.

And so it begins 😂😂😂😂😂

What a difference Clement has made.
This same squad (bar a few new faces) would have shat the bed today, its been an utterly professional performance.....just what was required

To good :)

Too many folk focusing on NEH not turning a huge profit, or the fact it’ll take dozens of years to pay for itself.
Sometimes it’s OK just to spend money on something that will give a good experience to supporters. How many of us buy a new telly, knowing we will never be able to recoup our money on it if we ever sell it? But we don’t care because we will enjoy watching it.
I like NEH, I like that I can get a pint before a match and saunter right into the stadium, and then another one afterwards should I choose. I like the fact I can just go for a coffee if I have a free afternoon. I like that we have a venue ready made should we need it for any eventuality. 
Fuck the naysayers. NEH is great.

Establishing a new long term route to move income was important. Assuming revenue from the shop isnt included, I would say £30k profit in 6 months is a decent start.

Players allegedly went to Beale to sort it out and stop Jim from being sacked. Beale allegedly wouldn't say anything to Bisgrove which then supposedly turned alot of the squad off Beale. Comparing it to the time some board members wanted a member of staff fired for the 55 celebrations videos getting out but Gerrard said if he got fired then he would go too. 

Excitement of all the incoming players overloaded the server.
