McLeish isn't exactly a hero, he did spend big on Arteta for example and got a third of his price 2 years later iirc, probably not his fault as he probably was told to cut back. He brought in players that are the worst to play for us in my lifetime. He also brought us a 3rd place finish again the worst in my lifetime.

Some of them were truely awful. I think someone posted all the worst one last night from another forum I use.

I wasn't keen on these but like the one very he is pulled up on string.

EL HADJI DIOUF insists Scott Brown was five years too late with his Old Firm insults. Rangers star Diouf claims the Celtic skipper deliberately targeted him for verbal abuse in yesterday's thrill-a-minute Scottish Cup clash. But Diouf, 30, has hit back at the Scotland midfielder - insisting there was no way Brown was going to provoke a reaction out of him. The ex-Liverpool striker told SunSport last night he loved every minute of his first big derby game at Ibrox - despite the attention he got from Brown. Diouf promised his days of responding to the stick he gets are over, as he fears letting down boss Walter Smith and his new team-mates. He said: "I played my own game even though some people tried to wind me up. There was a lot said before the match, but I kept my nerve and was alright. "Brown tried to wind me up right from the start of the game. "He tried things to get me sent off, but I'm too strong for him. "I am not here to give a headache to people. "I am here to play my football and do everything I can to help Rangers win games. I know Brown tried to get me sent off, but that's OK. "I know what is going to happen in every game I play here. "It happened in England and it will happen in Scotland, I know people are going to try and get me sent off. But I tell you, I'm too strong for those people. "I am mature now - I'm a big guy and I know what to expect. "Maybe five years ago I would have reacted and done something to him and been sent off. But not now. "I tell you right now, I am not going to let anyone down. "I have a nice manager behind me in Walter Smith and nice team-mates behind me too. "I don't want to disappoint them so that's why I am only focused on playing my football. "I just want my manager to be happy with me outside the pitch and inside the pitch. "I am not here in Scotland to react to things. "I am here to win the league by helping my team-mates. Guys like Brown can do what they like. "My job was to play well and if you look at it, how many good crosses did I put into the box? I did OK. "I am going to score goals here, definitely, but the most important thing for me is my team wins game after game." Brown and Diouf clashed repeatedly at Ibrox. At one point the Scotland star urged the Senegal hitman to get on the ball and try to get past him when Sasa Papac was standing over a free kick. Diouf also claims Brown insulted his family. Advertisement But the experienced frontman insists there was no way he was going to react, not even when Brown scored and celebrated by standing right in front of him. He explained: "When Brown scored he came to me and did something, but I have been playing football a long time now. I am not a young boy any more. "Brown said some nasty things to me on the pitch - things about me and my family - but I am too big for him. "He can say nasty things about me and my family all he wants. "I am too big for him, no one knows him. He just wants publicity because if I react then people are going to say El Hadji did something wrong to him. "No one knows him so why should I react? "I could have said something to the referee but I didn't do that." Diouf couldn't have handled his Old Firm debut any better from his own point of view. Ignoring the flack, he also played well and showed his class. It was a big day for him, with the eyes of Scottish football glaring at him from the sidelines, but Diouf was pleased with the way he performed. He said: "I feel good and also tired. But if you play football this is the game you want to play in. "The atmosphere was amazing, unbelievable. "I have played in many derbies in my life like Liverpool v Everton, Newcastle against Sunderland and Bolton v Blackburn. But Rangers against Celtic is the best. "It's the biggest game I have ever played in my career, no question. "The manager gave me confidence and the Rangers fans all love me." Celtic now look to be favourites for the replay on March 2 at Parkhead, but Diouf insists there is no reason why Gers can't win through to the last eight. He said: "We are a little bit disappointed by the result, but we know we can do a job in the replay. "Nothing has been decided yet. "We are still in the competition so why can't we win at their place? "Last time Rangers played there they won so we can do it again."

I really do hope EHD scores a winner against them as there could be riots.

EL HADJI DIOUF last night branded Celtic skipper Scott Brown a NOBODY. The Rangers new boy accused Brown of trying to make a name for himself by taunting him into an Old Firm red card. The pair clashed time and again in yesterday's explosive Ibrox thriller but Diouf said: "I refused to react. Why should I react to him? No one knows him - I'm too big and too strong for him." Brown, who grabbed Celts' second equaliser in a pulsating Scottish Cup fifth round clash, was booked for an in-your-face celebration as he stood with arms outretched inches from Diouf. But Diouf, whose own fiery temper has landed him in bother countless times, was determined not to rise to the bait. He said: "Brown tried all sorts of things to get me sent off. "He said some nasty things about me and my family on the pitch - but I am too big for him. "He can say all the nasty things he wants. I won't react. "He just wants publicity because if I react then people are going to say that El Hadji did something wrong."

Congrats to the you Cammy! Confusing as hell though. Especially if they are identical. Maybe they will be called by their middle names? I remember one of my school mates had the same name as his father but everyone used his middle name, even teachers and they usually don't.

I'm more hopeful than before but need patience tbh.

ESPN pundit Craig Burley has been "spoken to" by his employer after complaints about his criticism of new Rangers signing El Hadji Diouf. (the Sun) Not good enough.
-
Just watched that Burley thing. How about you resign if you don't want to commentate on Diouf, you would be no loss. Burley is also a very over opinionated dickhead and he is usually wrong, but if you disagree with him you are wrong, according to him.

4-5-1 again, bloody hell

Hopefully a good win for us 2-0 or 3-0 and Black sent off would do me.
-
Tbh I'm indifferent. Although we did some business we still need points on the board.
-
Isn't it obvious, the one that tries. I was almost going to post about the ref not carding any of the scum players and carding 4 Aberdeen ones and a red card as well.
-
Aberdeen are a disgrace. Man off after a minute.

Liverpool only spent about �£4m as they sold Babbel. Not bad considering they spent �£58m and got �£54m back. Chelsea are walking a tight rope imo like Man City with Uefa after their spend, �£71m on 2 players on the final day, unreal.

January 2011 Transfer Window - Healy, Diouf and Bartley IN
metlika replied to stewarty's topic in Rangers Chat
He is tall so he will have height maybe not the full weight yet but I still think he will be solid enough. -
Tanner making an arse of himself saying a whole new strike force. What about the �£4m man Jelavic, he must be first choice when fit imo. Diouf can play wide so we will see.

Sammon has gone to Wigan, Nish is Pish and Kyle is overrated. I can see Bartley being used as a full back and on the occasion a centre back as Weir and Bougherra will still be main stays. -

He is highly rated by Wenger so he can add something. Webster just hasn't suited us but I don't get him rejoining a club he took to court. We tried to use him and get Conway suppose it was last ditch before we released him. -

Apparently he is calling us one of the biggest clubs in the world and the some fans from other forums are questioning it, hes sort of pleased me with that comment. I guess it is on SSN I need to see that interview. -

He is a hot head, he did something at Everton a couple of seasons back and he said something to a QPR player who was lying with a broken leg, apparently it was quite vile according to Warnock. I fear he may lose the rag in a match against the scum. -
So Carroll did go, nice calendar pic for the Newcastle fans http://i51.tinypic.com/ws2p07.jpg He needs a haircut as well.
