It looks as if Jefte thought Butland was coming to catch the ball so he ran off wide to receive a thrown pass, which suggests he was completely unaware of the presence of Halliday. Bad mistake. He doesn’t defend all that well but not much worse than his predecessors at left back. He’s better going forward though. More energetic and with more options than Barisic and more productive than the expensive Yilmaz.

Apparently the academy staff really rate Goodbrand and Curtis looks a talent.

Finlay Curtis seems to score every game. Also seen a 15 year old lad came on at halftime. Oliver Goodbrand. Must have something about him.

Just been informed that we've done this prior to the last couple of AGMs - file this under "move along, nothing to see here".....

We've spent years moaning about Tav's lack of defensive awareness. Jefte showed an acute lack of defensive awareness in that moment. He's young, he can improve it, if he is well coached.

To be fair, it was a superbly timed run from Halliday, when you seen the cross coming in it looked way too far ahead of a player who is essentially a defensive midfielder.

Rangers B currently leading Partick Thistle 4-0 - Hagi scored and Finlay Curtis with 2 (4th goal a penalty).

Because trading has been suspended on Rangers shares.

Maybe a takeover in the offing or an announcement of some kind of major financial news or just to say we’re skint 🥸

I got the e-mail and wondered the same thing. I assumed I'd see something on here or FF if it was something unusual or concerning - haven't seen anything.

Don't know, but I don't see what rationale would be used to stop a trade between willing owners/parties in ordinary circumstances. Why do you ask?

With the benefit of hindsight, and having watched it a few times Butland should really be dealing with that for me, it's in his box.

Cerny but could easily have been Raskin or Barron as both had good games.

... somehow, I had an instant reminder of 55, i.e. the season we played in front of empty stadiums. Anyway, I leave these numbers and projections to others. Mainly because I can't change anything about it, have at best a basic knowledge of what they "might" mean, and being too old to worry about other people (with probably not much more knowledge than me) going ballistic (one way or another). I do believe that those at the helm try to do their best for the club and won't go into any greater detail (for obvious reasons) about what is going on financially (e.g. litigation). Most of them, albeit business-men, are Bluenoses too, who will try to safeguard the club from any future harm. Idealistic maybe, but that's MHO. As pointed out before, we failed to cash in on our star-players (Kent, Morelos, Tavernier, Goldson etc.) at the height of their game, and IMHO, that's not due to us not wanting to sell, but there were simply no offers. Which begs the question: were they really that good? That's all past, though. In the here and now, the main way to get income is getting into the CL, whether we're getting hammered or not does not matter ... in regard to the business topic. Once we get our finances in order, we can look after European results again. And, truth be told, we'll be also-rans in the CL for years to come. Our biggest failure since the start of last season was not to capitalize on the Scum's bad run at the end of last season, but instead throwing the title away within 14 days. It cost us direct entrance to the CL (and its riches) ... and the way our transfer window went, getting there through the qualifiers was hopeless. For much of the latter, I still blame the management, as they - like this season - stubbornly play the "Plan A system" no matter what, toiling and failing time and again. The straits look pretty narrow these days ... (at least from the perspective of an average Bear)
