  1. He was always going to come out of this as the ‘victim’ standing up to what has now been self identified as ‘sectarian songs’. In fact the very song sung by his own fans (both at celtic and Hibs) directed to a succession of Rangers managers. He wasn’t so eager to call this out then. In summary, he is a vitriolic fool doing what fools do best i.e. showing himself up for what he is...
  2. Sure the game quota minimum’ played is in play but additional ones for players out with this group have to be purchased...
  3. Remember him stepping up and facing the press after the European nonsense, something no senior player could and should have a done. The lad is an undoubted talent and on that evidence alone I hope his physicality matches his mental steel and he moves on to next season injury free...
  4. Point taken and agree with the narrative, but the footballing staff being beat in to a third place by a team who they have taken 10 points from over the course of the season points the finger first and foremost at them. Agree that the leadership from the top down has to be addressed but above that this team infuriating as they are should have realistically came 2nd...
  5. Hopefully Gerrard will restore some parity to refereeing decisions which reluctantly I have to say have been without doubt weighed against us this season. Right from the Stokes ‘assault’ on Tavaneir who outrageously got a yellow to today’s debacle. Gerrard is a big name who will command UK wide attention with his pressers whereas at the moment I honestly feel giving decisions (blatant) not in our favour against us is easy as no credible counter argument ever comes from the club. Hurting at what could have been but nobody to blame for today but ourselves for allowing a club who we took 10 points from to finish above us...
  6. Have just read Chris McLaughlins match report on the BBC website, no mention of the controversy surrounding Aberdeen penalty in stark contrast with Sky and even the Daily Records reporting. For their supposed top man his failure to even report the facts of the controversy surrounding same is professional criminality. Not looking for a blue tinted edge to the story but for a funded public organisation I expect an honest reflection of the facts.
  7. They crave respect for their ‘nationalism’ however fail to show any respect dignity or decorum for those outside their narrow mindset. This is dragged from generation to generation unfortunately...
  8. Surreal and very proud parent moment, she has a new scarf and I’d like to think in years to come she may recall to her own children how I took her to her first Rangers match the season just before Stevie Gerrard ripped it up and won his first Scottish trebble??...
  9. Can’t disagree with a single word of that, despite some of the play I had a smile on my face for the duration and the wee one was blown away with the experience ?...
  10. Mirrored that experience today, actually felt really proud to show her the inside of the stadium and to witness the look on her face to the team coming on to the park to Simply the Best. Sounds silly but definitely an experience that will live with me for a long time to come. Hope your daughter enjoyed her second game and more to the point second win...?
  11. Worked away from home the majority of the last few years however good friends have airways looked after me with tickets when home Big day today as this is the first football match I’ll have taken my 7 year old daughter to with a view to getting season tickets for us both for next year now I’m home permanently. With the ‘SG’ news the stadium atmosphere should be electric today and endear her to the Rangers family as it did with myself many years ago on my first match day experience with my own father. Onwards and upwards...
  12. Way I see things without knowing and detail is firstly Murty’s tactics of standing off were ‘clearly’ not working which became obvious from early on (ridiculous as the only time anyone has laid a glove on celtic it’s by pressing them in every area of the park). Post match Miller, (however outspoken as he sometimes comes across, is used to being a winner and passionate which obviously manifested itself in whatever happened in telling Murty the above). Wallace obviously feeling the responsibility to do so as captain backed Miller and whatever was said or done rightly or wrongly was done. Think after Sunday I’d have vented my feelings about the tactics but no doubt things will become clear in time. Murty’s tactics aside I would like to think both Miller and Wallace were as keen to let the players know their efforts were nowhere near good enough and told a few home truths to them...
  13. Love or hate their route 1 aggressive style of football, I take my hat off to the endeavour and commitment their players can produce. This game also sums up Aberdeen as a club who have flattered to deceive of late...
  14. Sure the ref would have been in to apologise to the manager after his interviews for making an incorrect decision over a penalty, is this not the way forward this season?...
  15. No excuses regarding injury’s, form or management, no Rangers team should be going down like that against Kilmarnock at Ibrox. Disappointment does not even come close to this. From the emotional rollercoaster and disappointment of last week this is simply not good enough...
  16. STV website and various news outlets led with stories yesterday regarding Alistair Johnston as not yet being passed as a ‘fit and proper person’ by the SFA. Was wondering why this story emerged at this time, probably too coincidental re the said appointment raking this issue up, or maybe to do with the rumours of possible future investment facilitated via Johnston from the states. Either way, was this the result of o ‘journalist’ suddenly thinking that they would randomly check and report on his status or a heads up from someone within the establishment to maintain negative publicity surrounding Rangers. Genuinely curious re this...
  17. Fair point, also before his appointment I heard McFadden giving him high praise and saying that he would be the best man for the job without doubt...
  18. As you say few and far between but credit to the guy for standing tall and doing the right thing...
  19. Sadly no they have not mate and are unlikely ever to do so. Following our public ostracisation and shameful demonisation how many politicians (who I have no time for at the best of times) have stood up and publicly defended or even had anything good to say publicly about Rangers, can’t honestly think of one. Compare that to the other side of the city and they are literally tripping over themselves to be associated with them. Scratching my head how things have came to this but how refreshing would it be to have a mainstream Scottish politician who was not afraid, and dare I say proud to publically defend and be associated with all things Rangers. A rant I know, apologies...
  20. Unfortunately, you are spot on with this observation...
  21. Thought he looked a yard off the pace today, love the guys endeavour, but he really should have put 2 away today...
  22. You would think that they had just refused to play ball (mind the pun) with celtic on re- scheduling a potentially important game but surely no journalist or editorial team could be this sadistic or petty:-)...
