Tea_Total 20 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 If he's fit, he's fit. He said he'd be back for St Mirren but just missed it, so I assume he's ready to play midweek. Why do we always look for a scapegoat at this club? "Right now, I am not yet ready to play. But I will attempt to do the impossible for this particular game. From the horses mouth papa I can almost understand it, even then. You need to realise that the African players are about 1000000000000000000 more passionate about their country than any of us apathetic Scottish people are, in general anyway. If he injures himself playing because he's not 100% fit then I won't be chuffed, but I'll wait until that happens before crucifying the lad for wanting to play at the World Cup I did a safety inspection of our base this morning in Hassi Messaoud Algeria. Every office has pictures of the national team proudly on display. Even the women are going crazy over this game. All my supervisors etc know I'm a big Rangers fan and have invited me a party to watch this game. Boughie is very much a hero over here. They are all confident he will play.

mrwin 393 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 This was on the cards this guy is only interested in the world cup i wouldnt play him again the boy Wilson is twice the centre back he is. The boy Wilson could go on to be twice the centre back he is right now, unfortunately thats not the case. l dont think its such a bad thing if Boogie is getting in some match practice before pulling on the glorious Rangers jersey and continueing in the fine form he has shown since coming on board!!!

Dietspam 733 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Boogie is very passionate about Algeria. I don't agree with him going, but for some players it's country before club. Just have to accept it. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
biotechnology 2 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 I have said it before & its looking more & more likely as time goes on he has kicked his last ball for us. Sure I read there is some clause in his contract over something or other. As for him being off in January-if Algeria qualify-who would want to pay big money for someone who will be away for ages-knackered in the Africa Nations.

Tommy WATP 86 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 if he plays for them then i wouldnt want him back in a Rangers shirt again this season , i fucking hate players that will turn up for their country totally disregarding whats best for their current employer. See- Lafferty , kingston from Hearts etc. I'm sorry but Lafferty got injured while playing for Northern Ireland, He didnt turn up half fit looking to play, dont you remember he recently pulled out the NI squad with a chest infection Totally different to Bougherra and Kingston's cases Anyway back on topic , Bougherra should realise who pays his wages , I'd place money on it he wasnt fighting 100% to be fit for St.Mirren on saturday Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ShootSpeedKillLight 0 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 The hysteria surrounding clauses in people's contracts is verging on the ridiculous as well. I heard Boyd has a clause in his contract that stipulates when he breaks Larsson's SPL goals record, we have to pay Killie £20 million. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Rambo1873 0 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 If he wasnt fit for St Mirren and is still unable to train with our first team then due to us being employers then he should be refused leave! I know that we cant do that but that is how it should be! as for african players being more ( up for it ) I dont see how you can say that when you take most African country's have major issues with squad bonuses etc the miute they start doing well and the team go on strike ie Zambia, Togo, Nigeria and Cameroon have all done this!

They're probably the hardest group of footballers to predict upon on this planet. Even though I totally disagree on Boogie possibly playing for reasons stated, on top of what you just said the rivalry between Egypt and Algeria is almost as bad as is between the greatest team in the world and the scum at the piggery.

CanadianBacon 2,088 Posted November 11, 2009 Share Posted November 11, 2009 Surely all it would take is a note from the Club's doctor to state something along the lines of; "To Whom It May Concern, Please excuse 'Boogie' from International duty as he's not able to play due to an injury which has caused him to miss the last six matches for Rangers FC, you know...........the Club that pays his wages. Any attempt to play him during this time of his injury will be deemed inappropriate and we may seek legal avenues against the Algerian Football Authorities through FIFA. Yours, etc., etc." He's fucked us about and it's time to play hardball with the big bastard!! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If he he has not played in a while and his fitness is in doubt, then why would Algeria play him in this very important match? Let's just wait and see what happens here.
