Well done lads. These days we really need some young ones to come through the grade and go on to be first teamers long term. That's why we need to get the right manager appointment with right coaching team. There will be a few regrettable hairdo's in there in the years to come

In reply: 1. There was 41000 at the first leg against Hibs on a weekend, do you think another 9000 will turn up for this midweek match? EDIT - Just seen its a sell out. Plus if it allowed our team to have 4800 behind them in the 2nd leg then its worth it. 2. Point taken but for one off matches almost like a cup final teams always get larger supports.

Ticket situation is a farce again, only games organised by the SPFL would see grounds with huge empty spaces when its obvious the ground could be sold out - a terrible advertisement for the Scottish game as anyone viewing in from out the country will think its crap crowds. We should have given Motherwell 2000 they asked for in return for 4800. I always like to see a healthy away support to make a better atmosphere.

I used to sit up there, on the days I attended without booze Id run up the stairs - great exercise. But you may get a few bruises on the knees afterwards as the leg room is tight. Depending on which section you are in you will get a cracking view of the pitch but if you are further towards the back you cant see much of the rest of the stadium. Ive sat at the byline a few times and you do need to stretch out to see the corner flag at the same side of the pitch. But I certainly enjoyed sitting up there.

That was the real Jeff....When I was in UK last and watched this he has a new hairdo, tanned and an eyebrow lift...whats that all about. I used to love Soccer Saturday though, best way to ease a hangover. I started watching it when it was George Best, Rodney Marsh, Frank McLintock and Charlie Nicholas. Couldn't watch it now if Phil Thompson is on it, his voice breaks glass. Even if he is a hooped Horror I do like Nicholas though.

Hull have been poor upfront all season and Steve Bruce chopping and changing formations hasn't helped. Newcastle ending up finishing above Villa and Sunderland. Certainly hasn't been the greatest premier league season.

Getting paid pittance is better than getting paid nothing.
-
Ive mentioned his name on here a number of times. I think he would fancy it. Not getting promotion from Derby means Premier League teams will think twice about him plus I don't think there will be too many positions coming up this summer. Newcastle are the only team he is linked with now and why would he go there!
-
Pity. Would have loved to see him back. But if he takes it I think Sunderland will be a better team next season.

Darren McGregor urges SFA to alter "harsh" disciplinary system...
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Im baffled by this one. How can the ban be delayed until second leg of the final anyway? I thought suspensions kicked in straight away. -
Seeing the other post about Helicopter Sunday, that's unreal its 10 years already. I remember the day well, I was in Baku Azerbaijan and found a good bar which had both games on which had around 10 Celtic fans and me being the only Bear. Upon Novo's goal I had a bit of a good celebration but didnt think McDonald would then do that couple of goals....I went utter wild standing on a sofa. That kicked off a 2 day party with another Bear I eventually met.

I think some of the hatred towards McCoist is out of order, Id like to know how many fans would refuse the salary being in his position. Im pretty sure there is a lot of facts that haven't been revealed. His salary was stupid in the beginning and being put on 12 months garden leave was another bad move. Questions to have to asked about him also but unless a fly on the wall reveals everything then I wouldn't get personnel towards Ally. Nobody can deny he will go down as the worst manager we've had, I thought I saw some terrible tactical decisions from Alex McLeish but Ally took it to a new level. He was stubborn and kept this jobs for boys mentality which effected the club and teams performances. In another industry he should have been let go straight away but he has written contracts so the club cant around that.
-
I just thought they were playing well last season at he had made some good signings this season but just haven't been able to win games. On paper I thought they were going to be around 10th.

Newcastle fans plan to 'occupy' St James' Park after West Ham game
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Newcastle fans were screaming for Pardew to be out early in the season when he was clearly making them punch above their weight, they should have known then it wasn't Pardew to blame. -
Pleased for Advocaat. Sunderland are one of the more boring teams to watch but he has come in and done well. Still cant see how Hull can get out of this, yet I fancied them for a top 10 finish at the start of the season.
-
Sorry, I picked that one up wrong. I still think a move for McGregor would be good. He along with Alan Hutton were the 2 most improved players that came through Rangers in the last 15 years. First things first though, lets get promotion then look at the squad options.
-
Haha...I actually did think of typing one up but didn't want to tread on someone elses toes. But I fancied getting the match debate going......
-
West Ham finished the season in January. The only good thing for Hull is its Allardyce going back to St James and he will want to win there but the players aren't playing for him anymore so I can see Newcastle getting a point. Hull are gone IMO. They wont beat Man Utd
-
What has Steven Davis done more than McGregor on the pitch??? Id say Davis has been extremely lucky he was a club which is obviously being shined on from the heavens right now because they are well punching above their weight. But Davis hasn't been a stand out. McGregor has been hulls MOTM a few times. Yes we would love a young Andy Goram but we are not going to get that....I say bring Mcgregor in....he will be in his comfort zone and give us 2 solid years.....
-
Just kept sunderland up...all be it a mighty disaster
-
He has done the job at Sunderland.... If ever I liked a dick, its Advocaat Would love to him in charge at Ibrox again......has a Fergie aura about him.
-
Nah got to disagree with you there, yes ambitious with a bit of hunger in him and you cant blame him for trying to set himself up. I maybe overrated him, I thought he is top 4 class before. Id take him back instantly for next season (should we go up).....look how bad Arsenal have been without a good keeper.
-
Would you accept McGregor back Frankie??? I think it would be a shrewd move......Probably one of the forgivable ones who left. Hull are down they will well be looking to move players on,. Mcgregor is what 33/34, a young pup for a keeper - I just turned 36 yesterday and can still climb peaks every weekend so he can easily do the job.

Sorry state of affairs but our team should have just enough (to give your kids a treat, its full of Cadbury goodness....)
