  1. Decent enough gesture from Motherwell but how many season tickets did they sell last season ? Maybe 1,000. Tops. At what price ? Maybe 350 quid. So not a large sum of money involved. Guess work on my part I admit. Goodwill factor covered by a player sale = a good bit of business. Mind you I still want them relegated next season.
  2. Before Xmas we would have beaten Slavia home and away. We faced the racists after we had gone off the boil. The squad was focused on the title. I don't fear them at all. There is going to be upheaval this summer with some leaving, new chaps on the block, squad may not be as settled, etc. With the Euro's there will be many not as rested as they should be. Whole scenario makes qualification harder. But my confidence in Gerrard and the backroom staff to overcome these hurdles remains undiminished.
  3. Player of the year and players player of the year are different. Not surprised that Kent made the list. Players must hate playing against him.
  4. I won't be there. Too far to travel with too many problems. But, if I was still in Scotland, it would be a bus to Buchanan Street after the game. Don't drink and drive. Short walk to the square. If this cop thinks a warning is going to put people off he needs replaced. What he should be doing is planning for the best way to allow the celebrations to take place with the minimum impact.
  5. Seems that way to me as well. But I assume that our manager has his own sources which suggest otherwise.
  6. I shall speak in his defense. Warburton and Pedro were more or less board appointments. Murty was always to be stand in. King, himself, spoke to Gerrard and liked what the man had to say so he ignored (or convinced) the board he had left behind that this appointment was a good move.
  7. King did a great deal for our club. But the best was bringing in Gerrard. Every time he speaks he makes me proud. Thoughtful, incisive, and swats away the irrelevant questions from the tabloids.
  8. Obviously the club think this an idea worth exploring so I will go along with it. Standard will be on a par with the bottom SPFL league. If RTV cover the games I will be watching them. A concept that works well in many European leagues.
  9. That was Marseille I think. I had forgotten about that. Manager resigned in protest about having Ntcham forced on him after he had said he didn't want him.
  10. Well done Heart and Hand. Nail on head. If Brown had walked with his mouth shut nothing would have been said. But from the moment he opened his mouth somebody laughed. I would have done the same. Look forward to hearing more on this in today's daily update. Hard to credit the amount of hilarity scum have given us in the last 6 months or so.
  11. Honestly I will be OK with a draw and no injuries. The final game is the big one. sheep at home. But I want a win there.
  12. More inappropriate than wiping your nose on the corner flag or tying a scarf to the goalpost ? I doubt it. I demand to know who this senior employee was so that I can campaign for a pay rise on his or her behalf. Truly the definition of a complete non story. Tabloid junk written by a Rangers hater.
  13. A couple of years ago I had high hopes for Middleton. I thought that he would become a first team regular. But he has failed to develop. He will still have a career in football and could earn a very decent wage in England (lower leagues). Just can't see him pulling on the jersey again and strutting his stuff in the CL. Ryan Kent he is not. So probably best for the club just to cash in this summer and see what we can get for him. That said I expect Gerrard to take him to the preseason camp before making a final decision.
  14. Who would we miss the most ? Not one of those 4 we would not miss. McLaughlin and Patterson in the starting XI would not upset me in the slightest so, for me, I guess it's Goldson or Davis. I think that Goldson just shades it.
  15. scum don't have a recruitment team so it's hit and miss with them. We, on the other hand, get most signings right. Due diligence, value for money, potential, etc etc.
  16. scum don't have a manger yet so I don't see how they can have a recruitment plan for next season at the moment.
  17. Spoonburners are always difficult to deal with. I don't see us splashing millions on a player who will spend most of his time on the bench. In the ability of our recruitment team to find value I have no doubt. If Borna goes this summer then I sure they have better options lined up than Doig for the same price.
  18. I doubt if Gerrard will even care about this award. No doubt that he should get it but if St Johnstone do the cup double then it will go to Perth. Gives those that don't want to vote Rangers a slightly credible alternative.
  19. While we have done fine without him it's all about Gerrard having options regarding who starts on a game to game basis. A fully fit Jack has a role to play next season.
  20. Doig could push Bassey for a spot on the bench. Nisbet we would never sign. Too many better players in his position. If that list was extended to 11 players they would all come out of our squad.
  21. No that's the day we announce him as Defoe's new boot polisher.
  22. Too soon to say if the op was a complete success but fingers crossed he gets 40 odd games for us next season.
