The 5-1 against Hearts was the final I was going to post but you beat me to it. That was a display and a half. The semi final beating Celtic was also a cracking match with Laudrup lobbing Marshall for the winner. Also throw in the 1993 final to win the treble against Aberdeen at parkhead.

Arsenal to end the wait today, I think they will turn up and win it in style. 3-0.

Messi pens record £16m + per year deal
Gribz replied to Ser Barristan Selmy's topic in General Football Chat
To think Rooney was earning more is mad, Messi is twice the player and some. -
Scott Gemmill - Is This What We Need At Rangers
Gribz replied to chilledbear's topic in Rangers Chat
In answer to the title of the thread, its what we needed Ally to do at the start of the 2012-13 season, change the way we play for the long term. Germany have as good a set up as it gets globally so for the U-17s to get passed them is a job well done. -
Scott Gemmill - Is This What We Need At Rangers
Gribz replied to chilledbear's topic in Rangers Chat
A good read and great to see he is willing to learn and pass everything over. He is doing things the right way on and off the park. -
Matt McKay makes the provisional Aussie squad. And Jelavic is in the Croatian 30.
-
Its not but the list was put up of ex players who are available, its just a debate and comment. id welcome some fresh new faces, please give us your suggestions.
-
Indeed he is. Totally forgot about him even playing for Rangers.
-
Lets just hope dire Hibz come down aswell. Would like to hear what happened with Locke. For him to be chopped on thefirst day and have no comment seems interesting.
-
Will be interesting to see how many ex Bears also make the WC. DaMarcus Beasley and Mo Edu are both in the USA squad.
-
Ferguson He could ruin Macleod. Someone like Ray Wilkins or Trevor Steven would be the making of Macleod. Cuellar and Bougherra would be my first picks because as it stands our defence is a disaster waiting to happen. Cuellar was one of Villa's best defenders at his spell there then he made the wrong decision to go to a poor Sunderland team. He would cruise the Scottish league for 2-3 seasons. Blood in Gasparotto and McAusland (sp) with those 2 and Wallace / Smith would fill me with much more confidence than McCulloch and Moshni, although the latter does have his moments.
-
Ally albeit with a heavy salary stuck around during times where we didn't know if we had a team or league to play in, Levein seems sneaky to me and comes in as the off field problems look behind them. It will make beating Hearts next season a bit sweeter.
-
Another league where nobody seems to want to win it. Real lost with Barca and Atletico drawing meaning they have all dropped points again for another weekend. Sets up next weekend nicely. Barca v Atletico at the Nou Camp with a winner takes all game although Atletico just need a draw. Would like to see Atletico do the double but rather see them win the CL.
-
Im glad he is employed so he doesn't make the available list for future Rangers manager. Worst Scotland manager of all time! Even though Locke wasn't great and Im no fan it does seem a bit harsh on him. Sounds a bit like 'thanks for getting us through the season when nobody else would but jog on"
-
City deserving champs. They were the best team in the league. People judge on 'the now' but first half of the season they were looking unbeatable and scoring for fun until Chelsea went there and won. After that they were playing catch up due to games in hand. It wouldn't surprise me if they signed Messi over the summer. Yaya Toure can join the elite midfield from the premier league of Keane, Scholes, Vieira and Gerrard. Arsenal finished strongly and if they sign some world class over the summer they will challenge next season. They need a keeper, defender, winger and a striker. If they don't sign world class it will be them who drops out of the top 4. Liverpool will find it tougher next season, expectation will be to win the league but with the CL in their also they have to sign well. Man Utd will be stronger. With no European distractions they will be fresh every weekend and if they sign a midfield then they could be top 4 again. Chelsea will sign world class strikers. The competition next year is too close to call.
-
2 former 9IAR midfielders having good seasons. That result was on the cards and good to see 17000 witness the last minute goal
-
Ideally one of them would convert to a right back.
-
I am guessing Pete meant he is frustrated not pissed off...due to the fact Smith could have been a long term LB for many a year in his first spell and he has wasted his chance....maybe not though.

Robbed? Why Rangers could have been the first Champions League winners
Gribz replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
We should have been finalists, whether we would have beaten Milan is another thing. But the levels of cheating going on their, I knew they had match fixed domestically but obviously they got to CSKA also. I was only 13 then, but still remember every match of the campaign clear as day -
I agree, if Arsenal had just signed a striker nor not lost Walcott they would be in it IMO and of course Chelsea slipped up against Sunderland and Norwich. Yet the title is won over 38 games, I keep hearing about how Liverpool have lost it but the same could be said for Chelsea. Also if City weren't playing catch up they would have led a lot longer. As a West Ham fan its a game I don't mind us not winning to see City win the league. I wanted Arsenal first but after they were out of it I wanted City or Chelsea so long as Liverpool don't win it. I think City will come out the blocks flying and score in the first 5 minutes and it will be wrapped up.
-
I just see a bit of a pattern of players going backwards under this management team. Yes you could argue injuries and lack of a run of games hasn't shown them properly but I got the impression Clark was a player who liked the ball to feet and played in behind defenders therefore the Dave McPherson lump it into row Z passing game isn't going to suit him.
-
Additionally Ally played in a time when Scottish football wasn't light years behind the top European leagues and could score against anyone - English Champions Leeds twice / Oh and that striker against Switzerland at Villa Park in Euro 96 was possibly his best goal. 2 golden boots! Ally was a top European striker. Ally got that goal against Celtic, that was my favourite OF game as a kid used to play it back for about 2 years afterwards. I moved to England a few months after that game and Scottish football wasn't shown on TV so I took the video of it with me and watched that game loads.
-
No I agree, Ive always rated Miller but his directness and way he gets in behind has been his asset. Im not saying he would be a poor signing, it would all depend on IF his game / pace has decreased during his time in Vancouver. Again, we are playing in the Championship therefore he should be more than good enough for that.

SPL (or what ever) play off Hibs v Kilmarnock
Gribz replied to Gribz's topic in General Football Chat
It would be great if Falkirk or Hamilton beat Hibs but those 2 have now got a couple of tough games against each other which is in Hibs favour. What would also be good is if the Championship has pretty little TV rights and Rangers, Dunfermline, Hibs and Hearts are all there. Cant see too many tuning into the top flight enjoyment of St Mirren v Motherwell. -
Following this thread, we're just waiting on one from you about Barry Ferguson returning. I thought there would be more chance of that than me ever starting a sort of pro-Boyd thread.
