We're playing Wednesday and Saturday next week. Our piss poor performance against Celtc was unforgivable and means we'll likely be playing catch up for the remainder of the season.

Compare and Contrast? We have experienced two nights of Scottish clubs participating in European competition this week. How have PQ CSC reported the attempts by Sellik, Aberdeen and, Rangers on their Scottish Football website? This webpage is important for Auntie's perspective on posterity, it is the equivalent of newspapers' cuttings libraries. In future when recalling events from a previous fixture between two clubs, this will be their first and major point of reference. First up on Tuesday evening was ra Sellik, Martin Dowden filed several reports from the Netherlands as ra green'n'grey hooped horrors took on Feyenoord in the Champions League. We can thank Annie McGuire back in the day for informing the listenership, "both Martins, Dowden and Conaghan are really good Celtic men". Positivity is Martin's mainstay when reporting on his heroes, no mention of the club's several year long Euro difficulties. His post match report was more of the same, nine man Hoops were brave : "In the aftermath of another Champions League defeat, it would be easy to say, 'same old Celtic'. The result - losing 2-0 to Feyenoord in Rotterdam in their opening group game - seemed familiar at this level but, at times this display was an accomplished display by the Scottish Champions. The script felt different though, and perhaps offers encouragement ahead for Celtic's upcoming home fixtures. Rodgers side played well in the first half, better than on many away days, before the hammer blow of a concession deep into injury time signalled the start of the demise". Now, Feyenoord had two goals chopped off, a penalty miss and, two goals awarded. Sellik had two players red carded. All these decisions were checked and approved by VAR. I understand PQ literally has, 'a Celtic State of Mind' two of that particular site's Podcasters are employed by the national broadcaster; however, long term employees of Auntie should be encouraged to report objectively. Adopting a more comfortable fan media stance allows Martin to crop the game to one half. Further, Feyenoord had the advantage of a greater budget. Last evening's starter was Aberdeen in Frankfurt for the Euro-Conference League. Dandy Don fan and BBC Scotland's Digital Editor, Tyrone Smith played a Pittodrie hand, positively bullish with established PQ bon mots sprinkled around, "one of last surviving members of the team that won the Europa Cup two seasons ago is the Keeper. Of course, he broke Rangers hearts denying Ryan Kent in extra time and saving Ramsay's penalty in the shoot-out". He concluded, "Aberdeen showed mentality, desire, fight and, tactical know how in abundance against their expensively assembled German side". Thus, two Scots sides endured battling defeats and added zero to the decreasingly important national coefficient. If Sellik had hit the post again, how much would the efficient accrue? The Rangers - Real Betis is PQ postres on the Euro' menu. If Sellik get a good Sellik man and Aberdeen can rely upon a Dandy, Rangers receive Kerrydale Insane(Kheredine Idessane). The privately educated Kheredine focused on Michael Beale's difficulties in build up, no problems because he was writing what the majority of the Rangers support were saying. The game itself was different because his initial report after the game began, "Real Betis will absolutely feel hard done by because they had Rangers on the back foot for long periods of the game". I say initial because by this morning Kheredine's report had been disappeared. Replaced by Scott Mullen telling us, "Sima goal gives Rangers narrow win". Kheredine's report read as if Kheredine and his PQ CSC chums felt hard done by the expensively assembled Andalusian's outfit inability to defeat a struggling Rangers. Rangers have played five Euro games this season so far, have won two, drawn two and, lost one. Rangers have and are consistently adding to the national coefficient but, no one at BBC Scotland will be allowed to mention the fact on their web page. PQ CSC are reverting to warmer, more comfortable memories of Pedro standing in a hedge after Progres Niederkorn knocking Rangers out and when Sellik hit the post against Real Madrid.

And so it begins. Some interesting results. Bo’ness beat Darvel at home. Talbot lost away to St Andrews.

There's always a pedant waiting to pounce 😆

Brilliant viewing mate, cheers.

I'd go as far to say a fit Roofe = at least one trophy maybe a Title

Mon the gers

Looking forward to it tbf, still got a bit of a buzz from Betis. The only definite change I'd make is Roofe - is that 2 in a week so far? If we manage his minutes this season then we'll have a better chance, it's that simple.

Especially when we've beaten better sides in Europe than Keltic.

We won 1-0 last night! Granted mainly down to Butland

These games always leave me feeling bitter sweet. Another solid result in Europe but we continue to take it off of Celtic. Absolutely nauseating.

There's no chance of that happening. We will be playing two games per week for the next two months and rotation is essential. On Sunday we could well see starting places for Dessers, Lammers, Jack, Yilmaz, Souttar and possibly even Scott Wright.

Beale on Bailey Rice? I'm sure I once ate that at the Gala Cafe in Hong Kong...

Our home record in EL since 2017 Played - 32 Won - 23 Drawn - 6 Lost - 3 Rather impressive record.

Coming in off the bench, in 'safe' games is just the thing for the kid. Unfortunately, those types of games are few and far between lately. Nice run of home matches coming up where he may fit in...hopefully.

Well done Rangers. We hung in there for the first 40 minutes, then stepped up. I think we controlled the second half, the Keeper and Kemer Roofe were outstanding throughout. I believe the last time we won against a Spanish team in European competition was Osasuna in 1985, Hugh Burns rampaging through the puddles and Craig Paterson scoring.

Bit young and wet behind the ears, why not go the whole way and appoint Roy Hodgson?
