Also read the most MLS pitches including Toronto are plastic. Absolutely spot on. He's in Scotland so going to have to play on them. Didn't realise most in MLS are plastic which is good.

Bakbear 3,586 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Momentum is critical at his stage of the season. We simply have to come out the traps flying. We have an awkward run of fixtures over next 5 or 6 games and need to improve our away form. The Old Firm win should have finally given us belief and we need to capitalise. I like TMB’s formation and selection but would be fine with the same starting 11 too. I really want want to see Katic back in the fold Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

scottyscott1963 18,329 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Another rhabid hater taking liberties and having a swipe at Rangers. Hopefully SG has them fired up after that prick clarke was discussing Defoe's wages on SSN. He has one of the fuckin ugliest fenian faces you ever clapped eyes on,and i'm fuckin ragin at the bastard. Doubt whether he would mention the tramps wage bill,and hope we batter the shite out them. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As much as it annoyed me, we've done the same when talking about the money Villarreal spent on their team after playing them. He actually wasn't even quoting the ridiculous figure and used the accurate one to then point out that's his total team wage budget per week. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Essandoh 21,208 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Funny how Auchinleck and other junior teams can afford grass pitches but Kilmarnock, Livingston and Hamilton would go under without one. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BlueboyG 5,238 Posted January 21, 2019 Share Posted January 21, 2019 Same team that pumped the scum, possibly change Davis for McCrorie , bring on Defoe for Alfredo when we're up 0-2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A below par performance and we start cheering him, his own fans booing, could down tools the rest of the season the list is endless. For him to even think of champions league football it is in his interests to lose this game. They might play him, I'm just speculating. I wouldn't play him personally.
