  1. Two games where Butland (or another) could have been tested ahead of Euros, and instead they now go into the tournament with less confidence in Pickford than before these matches. Very poor management.
  2. A lot of our moral betters and superior Scottish fans, who frequently challenge others supporters ability to support their team, quite enjoying John Souttar's bad performance online it seems. Funny that, can't think what might be driving that sentiment.
  3. Struggle to get my head round a Croatian international footballer whose Dad is a gangster being so easily, and constantly, feart.
  4. Have been critical as his mistakes have cost us goals, but fair play, he was excellent last night.
  5. Thinking of seeing the likes of Di Maria (albeit a bit of a prick) at Ibrox later, got me thinking. Who have been the best opposition players we've seen at Ibrox in this amazing recent era of European success since the Gerrard days? Always remember likes of Del Piero, Mendieta, Riquelme when growing up, but have any stood out recently? A few that spring to mind: Bellingham Firmino - thought he looked class that night to be fair Salah - horrifyingly easy cameo vs Borna Midfielder for Braga, maybe captain but can't remember his name? There must be more, but probably testament to how well we've played at home that not many are standing out.
  6. Loved Clements press conference. Says all the right things, no bullshit. Excellent and clear communicator.
  7. A Rangers Liverpool final would be as challenging for Dublin as it would be for our back four.
  8. Queen (God Save The) Blue Ulster Cult Sly and the Family Staunch
  9. This should be the team. McCausland is low on confidence and Matondo shld be hungry to show what he can do and has pace to hurt them. Roofe has looked quite sharp in his cameos and has proved himself in Europe before. Even if he only lasts an hour, I'd back him to get us a goal before bringing on the Dessmeister General.
  10. Someone should come up with an idea and post it on here. They are always well received
  11. That pass to Mackinnon near the end was outstanding. He's a terrific little player
  12. Great spirit and amazing result. Thought we were sloppy with the ball at times and really need players back. Diomande and Silva the standouts for me. Wee Ridvan also had some good moments
  13. Imagine someone told you around October that our strongest 11 for the title run in would include Dujon Sterling and Dessers in the front 3.
  14. He's getting better and made a right difference. Will always frustrate but he impacts games, is opportunistic with chances and never lets his head go down. God help him if he misses a sitter in the Old Firm right enough
  15. Fucking miles better than Borna now. Felt he added class and composure and a bit of bravery. Huge fan of the boy - needs to play every game
  16. Roses are red Violets are blue Would love a three nil But a win will do.
  17. McCausland might not be the finished article but least he gives us natural balance and pace on that side. Since Clement came in, he has simplified our way of playing and played players in their best positions (sterling left wing the obvious exception). Would like to avoid us going back to square pegs in round holes scenario. Would keep Cantwell central and Silva as number 9.
  18. The big man tires me out just watching him so the centre halfs must have been knackered.
  19. I've had my season ticket for 5 years - atmosphere was as good as any domestic game I've been to.
  20. True but they are hardly blessed with great goalkeepers so seems daft to not even get a keeper of his talent in for a friendly and a look even if he plays in a weaker league.
  21. If goes to a relatively poor Nottingham Forest team he won't be set up for success to get into the Euros. They will lose far more than they win, and even risk a drubbing or two no matter how good he is. Compare that to the prospect of trophies, showing how good he is on the European stage, perhaps being Player of the Year, and the main man at a huge club. Not worth risking that to go back over the ground of a mediocre English team again. Would be surprised if he did.
