Rubbish? Did you see his “touch” when he should have been going forward into space? i don’t disagree with you about pressurising Shinnie etc.

Back to Morelos sending off. Neither commentator mentioned him after the incident which was shown at least twice while he was on floor. As soon as the red is shown that tosser says “when will he ever learn” .

2-4 Defoe

Coulibaly a touch like an elephant.

7 minutes extra rime.

Coulibaly on for Arfield.

Katic in for Kent.

1-3 pen Tavernier

BB loses the ball when he should have made the pass, leaves space behind. They score.

At her Milngavie guest house, she was landlady for more than 100 Rangers Academy footballer youngsters for whom she provided accommodation as well as a welcoming home from home. She was also an extremely highly regarded and dedicated children's panel member in West Dunbartonshire for more than 20 years, bringing integrity, life experience and compassion to the task. For seven years she was a justice of the peace in Glasgow who enjoyed an excellent reputation for professionalism and abiding concern to always get it right. Born Morag Skinner Ballantyne Proctor in Helensburgh, she was brought up by parents Joseph and Elizabeth with elder brothers Kenny and Bobby in Bonhill. Times were hard for the family and household budgeting was a challenge. By the time Morag was 11 her father had died and by age 13 her mother was also dead. Needless to say these were devastating blows and teenage years were difficult.After Bonhill primary school she went to Vale of Leven Academy following which she worked at the Westclox factory in the Vale of Leven Industrial Estate for about two years doing various jobs. A short lived marriage ensued during which she had a daughter Caroline. The couple divorced but she maintained a close supportive relationship with parents in law, Mr. and Mrs. Main. She met husband Lachlan McNeill in the mid 1970’s while both worked in Glasgow solicitors, Bird, Semple, Crawford and Herron, she in the cashroom and he completing his legal apprenticeship. They were married in February 1979 in Bishopbriggs where they set up home and thereafter enjoyed almost forty happy and fulfilling years together. A year later daughter Kirsty was born and together with Caroline the family unit was complete, moving in 1986 to Milngavie. In the mid 1980’s she joined solicitors Bready and Co. in Dumbarton Road where she remained for almost twenty years. Principally a criminal law practice, she began as cashier before becoming office manager and was occasionally engaged in taking witness statements. Meanwhile in about 2000 husband Lachlan’s career was undergoing a change of direction as he began training for the inevitable uncertainty of a career at the Scottish Bar as advocate. For some time Morag had been contemplating starting a bed and breakfast business and given family circumstances combined with the increasing popularity of the nearby West Highland Way, the time was apt to do so and ‘The Best Foot Forward’ began. Business went well and in 2003 the opportunity arose to buy a larger house, ‘Westfield’, which was also the family home. This offered six letting rooms which proved very popular with walkers and others working temporarily in the area. When it became known in 2007 that Rangers F.C. were looking for accomodation for Academy players at their nearby training base at Murray Park, Morag met with Sandy Jardine, Head of the Academy who was impressed both by Morag and the facilities available, leading to an agreement being reached which endured till recently. This was a mutually successful operation as given her warm and caring nature she endeared herself to her many charges who derived much affection and support from her as well as the highest standard of care. If necessary she also kept them in line with appropriate ‘direction’ but always constructively. It was a role she thoroughly enjoyed in which led to many lasting relationships being formed with players, including Danny Wilson whose wedding she attended in 2016, Zak Rudden currently with Falkirk who dedicated a goal to her recently and Kane Hemmings now in England. Her contribution was enormously appreciated by Rangers. Doubtless her own early experience fed into her valuable input into these youngsters’ lives as it certainly did in her becoming a Childrens’ Panel Member in 1997. Although living in East Dunbartonshire, she wanted to serve in West Dunbartonshire having been brought up in Bonhill. Her ethos was that each child mattered and she enjoyed excellent rapport with them and their families. She was passionate in her desire for children to be given the opportunities they deserved and was delighted if over the years their circumstances improved and deeply disappointed if not. One accolade described her as ‘a great example of what a Panel Member should be like.’ Following a restructuring of the justice system, she was one of the first batch of ‘new’ Justices of the Peace to be trained and appointed in Glasgow in 2010. Till 2017 she sat regularly, earning much respect and admiration for the capable, conscientious discharge of her duties, one tribute highlighting ‘the empathy, wisdom and humour’ she utilised. A long standing member of the SNP, her main interest outwith family was the theatre. The large turnout at her funeral reflected the affection and high regard in which she was held by people from different walks of life. She is survived by her husband, brother Bobby, daughters and grandchildren Calum and Finlay. JACK DAVIDSON

Why would she be even looking at it? https://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/47137060 Rangers: Jermain Defoe faces no disciplinary action over penalty incident Jermain Defoe won the second of four Rangers penalties in Saturday's 4-0 win over St Mirren Rangers striker Jermain Defoe will not face disciplinary action for falling under the challenge of Paul McGinn to win a penalty against St Mirren. The incident was examined by the Scottish FA's compliance officer. However, there was deemed to be insufficient evidence to charge the former England forward with simulation. Earlier on Tuesday, Rangers boss Steven Gerrard accused Kilmarnock counterpart Steve Clarke of "trying to get" Defoe, 36, banned. The Rugby Park boss had compared the incident to one for which winger Jordan Jones received a retrospective two-match ban. The penalty was one of four awarded to Rangers by referee Andrew Dallas in their 4-0 victory over the Paisley side.

https://www.futboltotal.com.mx/futbol-internacional/gullit-pena-se-queda-en-europa/2019/02 Gullit Peña se queda en Europe Carlos ‘Gullit’ Peña continuará su carrera en Europa a pesar de que tuvo ofertas para quedarse en el futbol mexicano. El jugador llegó a un acuerdo con el GKS Tychy de la Segunda División del futbol de Polonia, que en próximos días lo haría oficial. De acuerdo con una fuente cercana al jugador, el mediocampista de 28 años pudo terminar su contrato con el Rangers de Escocia, club dueño de su carta, luego que el técnico Steven Gerrard le informó que no entraba en planes del equipo. Peña regresó al futbol mexicano en el 2018, cuando Pedro Caixinha decidió traerlo como refuerzo estrella de Cruz Azul. Sin embargo, su gusto por el alcohol y su indisciplina le trajeron problemas y terminó saliendo de la Máquina. El jugador regresó al futbol mexicano con el Cruz Azul, donde no tuvo éxito El semestre pasado el Necaxa optó por ficharlo pero la historia fue similar a la de los cementeros y al final del Apertura 2018 terminó el periodo de préstamo. Peña se vio obligado a regresar a Escocia, pero no entró en planes de los Rangers, que no le encontraron acomodo en otro club. Por ello, el mexicano decidió rescindir su contrato y probar suerte en Polonia, donde, de acuerdo con los rumores, será jugador franquicia. Actualmente, el Tychy ocupa la posición número 11 de la 1° Liga de Polonia, con 26 unidades. Será en próximos días que el ‘Gullit’ realice los exámenes médicos para que posteriormente lo presenten como nuevo jugador del club. Será el tercer mexicano en jugar en el futbol polaco, después de Rogelio Chávez, que está con el Arka Gdynia en la Primera División, y Enrique Esqueda, que actualmente juega en India pero tuvo un breve paso con el Gydnia. Erick Guti He’s joining a Polish 2nd division team after being told he not in SG plans!

I see Souness was in the directors box yesterday. Cool story.

I saw that a week or so ago, no club badges on it then.

Wonder why the SFA can not give assurances about the museum?

Dear Member, You may be aware that the mandatory cash offer for the share capital of Rangers International Football Club PLC, which the Takeover Panel required to be made by Dave King, has now been formally lodged. This is a short update to inform you that, in accordance with members’ wishes, Club 1872 will not be taking up that offer and will not be selling our shareholding in RIFC Plc. Members will recall that they were recently polled on granting an irrevocable undertaking to Mr King - that the organisation would not sell its shares for the offer price of 20p. This poll was 97.8% in favour of granting the undertaking, which was duly done, and so there is no requirement for a further poll of members on the formal offer. We have also received a number of questions from members regarding their options for shares in RIFC Plc which they hold personally. The decision on whether to accept the offer is one for each individual shareholder to consider and not something which we can provide guidance on. However, we can clarify that should you not wish to accept the offer for any shares you hold personally, you do not need to take any action. Club 1872

I assume this is new?
