BlueSuedeSambas 53,959 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 and I'm not talking about his footballing ability. Despite him pleading his case, he's not picked up 13 yellow cards this season for nothing and with McCulloch, Dailly and Ferguson all carrying injuries, but still being expected to start on Saturday we might see him trying to basically kick them at any given opportunity. The last thing we need is to be forced into a change early because of his thugish play, as it could upset our entire gameplan. We need Thomson to crunch him early so he cowers away for 90 minutes.

Muff 245 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 First tackle he makes will be a booking, hopefully he'll also take a whack to his ribs whilst making the challenge and be forced off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the goal machine 7,806 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I think he'll get sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Muff 245 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 If we take an early lead and it isn't going celtc way then I can see him getting sent off. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skol 401 Posted March 27, 2008 Share Posted March 27, 2008 I imagine Brown will have a big part to play in this weekend's game. Despite the fact that he's had a poor season, he is still a player capable of something a bit special. That said, I think we have enough in this Rangers team to keep him quiet and I hope he features for all the wrong reasons (losing the head etc). Ferguson taught him a lesson in the last one and is well capable of doing the same again. Thomson will probably be charged with keeping him quiet and I don't think there's a better player in the Rangers squad for that role. I'm more worried about neutralising their left winger. It's the 1st OF game in ages that I've actually been concerned about him. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cuellar on the outside and Thomson in the inside. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
BlueSuedeSambas 53,959 Posted March 27, 2008 Author Share Posted March 27, 2008 It's the 1st OF game in ages that I've actually been concerned about him. I think we will see Novo or Davis start on the right and initially their job will be to double up on McGeady, give him a sore one and then hope he drifts out of the game.

likeacare 9 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I think he will get at least one yellow card. Hopefully more. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FlippinEck 3,708 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 hes a danger to him fuckin self and his teammates if he keeps up his "unlucky" booking streak. All for it i guess Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
nvager 498 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 I see Thomson taking care of him. Looking forward to JCD vs McManus and Caldwell WE will win it - trust Walter Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JanVanRinkydinksaGypo 0 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 The boy is a puzzler theres no doubt in that. He has ability but its clear Chesney doesn't know how to utilise it, and i think its clear they are not working well together, perhaps his intention all along was to join them for a season, see how it goes, take a massive sign on fee and move to the EPL and the end of this season, get another sign on fee and a tasty pay off from Celtic. If he did end up with us via the EPL in a few season i have no doubts Uncle Walter would get the best out of him, but then again he has a terrible attitude and do we want this type of character at Irbox? I personally don't. Give me a Kevin Thompson and a Steve Davis anyday. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 Brown, McGreedy and McDonald are ALL good players and carry a threat - but we have our own threats. JCD early on, Boyd later on. Novo has been consistently good against them (and would not surprise me is he starts), Barry is consistently good against them, Carlos and Davie are solid. Thomson is dynamic and AMc is at his best. I think its going to be a great game, blood, thunder, snot and goals (for both sides). Really looking forward to it! Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Stars Bearette 1 Posted March 28, 2008 Share Posted March 28, 2008 big Carlos will get a few solid tackles in just to get the message across Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
