He nicked my summer football and league reconstruction. Therefore I will through in that Id like to remove fat cats from the game and Id bring in more ex pro's into the business side. There is nothing wrong with genuine business men and women being involved in the running as they would be really needed but there would need to be a link between the running of the game and ex players / managers.

Happy birthday mate. :cheers:

Good win and I had a wee flutter on Juve as well. I have fancied them to win the CL since the last 16 but with Real getting an away goal id see them as clear favourites to go through. I'll put last nights winnings onto Barca tonight.
-
Agreed but Messi beating him in the final would be nice.

Juventus v Real Madrid Tough one to call but Juve will know if they are going to reach the final they have to win the home leg. I fancy Juve to win this one 1-0. Barcelona v Bayern Munich Barca will want revenge from 2 seasons ago's 7-0 agg pumping. Plus they haven't won the CL for 4 years now and know Munich and Real have. They seem to be peaking at the right time with the front 3 unstoppable. Pep will know everything about Barca though. Munich got a shock in Porto but came back well. Its probably because they are so far ahead of everyone domestically. Im going for Barca 2-0 in the 1st leg.

But because it was Stuart Pearce on the receiving end that one can be let go

They should make it 16 or 18 but to fill the weekends up, shift the league cup to weekends, have a xmas break and bring back the Tennents sixes

Not preparing on our plastic pitch because of................. superstition
Gribz replied to SteveC's topic in Rangers Chat
On another thread I posted that the players should be spending the full week utilizing our facilities which include a pitch like we are about to play on. Inverted decisions from the manager, the managers office must have a spell on it. If we lose 3-0 again he will look some fool. If we win 3-0 then its a different story. -
League construction decided!??! Maybe they cant risk Rangers not going up so they will bring in a 16 team league after all with no relegation, Rangers Hibs and QotS being promoted with Hearts.

Absolutely essential we get the right manager in for next season
Gribz replied to Ser Barristan Selmy's topic in Rangers Chat
Not for me. Done pretty miserably at club level and is as arrogant as they come. -

Gribz replied to Ser Barristan Selmy's topic in Rangers Chat
Seems like there is going to be a manager merry go round, Moyes linked with West Ham with Allardyce going to Sunderland. Meaning Advocaat being available, id take him back if he would come. -
Both! Would be a tad ironic if McCall ends up playing against his former team (Motherwell) in the final.

Just stupidity all round. What it should be is 4th place v 11th SPL and 2nd v 3rd....winners play each other.

John Carver says defender 'got sent off on purpose'
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in General Football Chat
I was kind of hoping to see Villa go down. A lot of pundits were saying Newcastle were already safe with 35 points, no way were they after Sunderland, Leicester and Villa having all winnable games yesterday. I thought Hull were going to be the 3rd team to join Burley and QPR but they have won 2 and I fancy them to get another point off Arsenal tomorrow. Therefore Newcastle could be heading down. They only thing going for them is they have decent fixtures. -

Gribz replied to Ser Barristan Selmy's topic in Rangers Chat
This would be a possible scenario. However if Brentford dont go up it is hardly a FAIL. Taking them to 5th and the play offs is over-achievement as it is. I dont see how we couldnt temp them if we go up and Brenford dont. Weir would fancy it. I dont see too many Premier League clubs taking a chance on them. Only Newcastle, West Ham and possibly Sunderland are going to go for new managers in the summer. Sunderland may go for Advocaat if he keeps them up or Allardyce. West Ham are going to go for someone higher profile and Newcastle will struggle. Plus also depends on who stays up. -
I think an entry fee for ST of a fiver would be ok with non ST playing 8-10 quid.
-
That really puts a disadvantage on the 4th / 3rd team. 8 days between the 1st round (not sure why they call it a quarter final). Why do they need such a gap. Then it jumps down to a game every 3 days. The English system is 3 days between the knock out then a week before the final.

McCall: I want the Rangers job next season so I can help rebuild the club
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
I think we can safely say McCall isnt the man. He didnt have his own players but thats not the argument, he duffed up tactics and decisions. -

Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
He is only being linked with Newcastle. So for him it could be either Ashley or Ashley. Its an ambitious punt but why not? -

Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Steve McLaren could be available in 2 hours time as Derby are losing meaning they could miss out on the play offs. For the majority of the season he has done well and is someone who would appeal to me at Ibrox -

Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Im in agreement with you, thats what I mean by his previous CV doesnt do him much good. An option would be to unearth the next Eddie Howe. What he has done is remarkable. The guy at Norwich who went from Hamilton also has done well in the last 2 years. Im not saying go for these guys or the likes but it shows there has to be some young ambitious managers / coaches out there. Celtic have brought in an unknown guy from Norway and over the season has changed the way they play, so a punt at someone from the not so elite Euro leagues is another option. But we should be looking now regardless. -

Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Nobody can be judged over a short run of games, his job was to get promotion via play offs. But what is going against him is his lack of tactical knowledge and inability to make big decisions like dropping players. His previous CV doesnt do him any favours either. The ambition has to be a far more proven manager who will excite the club / fans and put a bit of worry in the others. It needs to make a statement that we are on the way back to the top. Likes of McCall and Billy Davies will just waste a few years by maybe a run of 2nd place finishes while that and allow Celtic to win a few more titles. It was good to hear Butcher got the Newport job yesterday so he would be out of the running. It shows none of the teams in Englands top 2 tiers fancied him. -
Tom Lang - Birmingham City defender on trial at Ibrox
Gribz replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
Not only does the playing field need changes at the back the coaching side has been screaming out for a top quality defending coach. -
DJ: McCulloch move up front tipped to boost Rangers promotion hopes
Gribz replied to pete's topic in Rangers Chat
I dont rate Fellaini, certainly not at 27 million but McCulloch makes him look a player. -
Football fans to be breathalysed before matches
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in General Football Chat
Its not part of an anti-social behavior, its part of a long term control agenda. How can they say / prove that alcohol makes people angry and violent.....yes there will be a few donkeys who act stupid but some people can become a happier person with drink.
