    Great news, I don’t  mind saying I was greetin last night watching some of the clips from yesterday’s match at Bournemouth.

    That lad is everything good about the game, fiercely competitive, determined and a managers dream coz he will literally do whatever he’s asked to do, and do it well. He shows how hard work a dedication can pay off and, just like many of us he’s a dreamer, and this kid dreamt big and his dreams came true.

    Tommy Locks goes down as one of my favourite players of all time, he has played in every division from Conference to Premiership , I was lucky to watch him for a good few years, to see him grow from youth team to first team, from player to leader/captain. And fortunate to sponsor him/his shirt for 5 consecutive years, stood and spoke to his proud father many a time. 

    Good luck Tom, a full recovery and I can see him back out there proving folk wrong all over again. Best wishes to him and all his family and friends.

    Because Shankland is clever enough to pull onto the smaller fullback when there is a cross incoming from the opposite flank. Good header aswell tbh.

    Every league has boring matches.
    The EPL is the best league in the world and to say English football is soulless with no atmosphere is mad.
    The attendances and support throughout the full football pyramid in England is unreal and no other country comes close. Clubs in the 4th tier get 10-15k attendances and conference teams even get 5k+. Some of the big teams can have average atmospheres but that's true of any team. Our atmosphere can be shit in run of the mill games too occasionally.
    You often get people complain about the quality of the EPL after watching something like Forest vs Burnley, yet they're comparing it to Madrid vs Barcelona or whatever top 3 teams in each league they've seen. Go watch Almeria vs Valladolid or Verona vs Lecce which is comparable and you'll see a huge difference.

    Can we please go back to bringing in Davies to try and salvage something from this season, even if its just a bit of pride.
    Souttar is leaving openings in almost every fucking game that are getting punished.
    Davies is rotten too, but not to the extent that we are directly losing goals every fucking match.
    Time for Souttar to be heading to the bench for a while and has to earn his place back in the team.

    Not really seeing it with him.
    The only thing I can kinda say to defend him is that its probably unfair that he has a thread all to himself to slag him off, where as Danilo who has shown absolutely fuck all so far is avoiding scrutiny.
    I got pelters for suggesting we should have went for Shankland in the summer mostly due to the scottish quota thing. I would have expected him to be a squad filler, but to be honest, I would probably have him leading the line over what I have seen from Danilo and Dessers so far.

    Not the point though, 
    Any player coming here from outwith scotland that's in a decent league (and not the arse end of a country's football tier) will need a decent wedge to come here
    PSV can sign players on lesser wages than we do because holland is a better place to be in, better league to play in, is much more respected by international managers and has proven to be a successful pathway to top leagues for players
    We can go on about how we are a big club, big history, the name Rangers is known across the world, but unless you are a fan, absolutely no player gives a fuck about that when they know its scotland they'll be playing in and staying in
    Anothee example 2 players, totally identical in ability and position, literallt exactly the same player
    We go for one and PSV go for the other, bet you a fiver it costs us more wages to convince our guy to sign for us than PSV have to fork out
