    Currently there is no play off between the team that finishes 2nd in the championship and 2nd bottom in the premier.....but I can see that changing or an expansion to 14 teams.

    Both XIs look very decent and baffles me as to why we play so bad (well it doesn't, its a combination of management, coaching and opposition). But how they would do in the top flight is tricky to judge.
  3. Gribz
    Hearts still have 2 seasons in the Championship though. But I can honestly see a restructure meaning 2 teams will go up next season.

    If we were in England it would be scary to think how much of a bigger mess we could end up with given Green, Whyte and Co could end up with 100 times what they got out of us last year. Yes the potential is there and we would have had a stronger squad but time wise we would have been league 2 at best. But if the original OP meant how would this team fair in England right now with the squad we have then my answer would be: With Ally we'd be bottom 6 in the Championship and Mid League 1. With a much better manager and coaching staff possibly mid Championship.

    Thread already going in footie chat, and Blackpool have confirmed Ferguson will take charge in the next game. Admin can merge the threads if they like, its semi rangers chat.

    Nobody would bat an eye lip if that was the reason. But if (an its only an if) the reason was due to a personality clash then its wrong.

    Selling someone for 7.5million when you already have a ready made replacement worth 4 times that (Scholes) is different from sending someone out on loan when you don't.

    You will have to watch it again now! 33 secs 45 secs 1.17 2.41 2.53 3.05 3.13 3.38 The rest are not bad though

    Some may say Alex Ferguson got rid of players, but he did so with Roy Keane at the end of Keane's career. There is no way he'd had got rid of Keane at his peak in the late 90s. And since retiring he has said his biggest mistake was letting Jaap Stam go.

    Dundee has a Hilton? Where did they steal that from!! Jeez its so long since Ive been in Dundee. I was thinking that maybe they didn't need to stay anywhere but in that case they would need to travel early in case of traffic and then they would be stuck in Forfar for hours before kick off doing nothing so they would need a place to prepare.
  11. Gribz
    Where else are they going to stay? Split them in half into Dundee's 2 Travelodges?

    Glad you put the word 'some' because some of them are shocking! Just needed a Susan Boyle at the end with a Celtic strip on.

    I agree, there is to much of a "you or us" mentality IMO. In every company in the world people wont get on with people including staff getting on with bosses, but if you have a good employee you don't get rid of them based on not getting on with them.

    Will we see him on Match of the day with an interpreter standing next to him? To translate the likes of "Wat a fud"
  15. Gribz
    That's why you set up with a 3-5-2 then have your defensive midfielder or 2 to get back and defend.
  16. Gribz
    Agree but 3-5-2 works if you play players in natural positions. 3 natural centre halves, 5 natural midfielders (this includes holding players, creative players and proper wingers) and 2 strikers. Liverpool have done it this season and done well. And I hate to admit the best Celtic side ive ever seen was under O'Neill played this.

    He would be the worst of the second keepers, bit of a screw up aswell in the 1994 cup final against Dundee Utd. Billy Thompson was a cracking keeper in his day but Utd got the best out of him, he was more a coach when he came to us hence not mentioning him.
  18. Gribz
    And Ginzburg. But 2 out of 15 isn't bad going!
  19. Gribz
    I think goal keepers are the only position in the last 25 years that we cant have a compliant about therefore it doesn't matter who is doing the goal keeping coaching it seems they are doing their job. Woods, Goram, Klos and McGregor first choice. And now Bell is probably the best we could ask for in league 1. Maxwell, Snelders, Niemi, Wattereus, Charbonnier and Alexander all back up along with emergency keepers like Dibble and Myhre.
  20. Gribz
    Can only remember him playing for Dundee utd, but echo the sentiments, sad news. He was part of that cracking side that got to the UEFA final in 1987-88 and knocked out Barcelona. IIRC there was an article by him posted on here a few months ago that was a good read....
  21. Gribz
    And Craig Moore midfield hence why it didn't work. When it should have been something like in 1996-97: _________________Goram_____________ _____Moore_____Gough____Bjorklund _________McInnes____I Ferguson_____ Laudrup______Gascoigne_____Albertz ____________Durie_____Van Vossen____

    I keep hearing pundits saying its an ageing team but its anything like an old squad. Only Ferdinand and Giggs are nearing the end of their careers. Evra, Carrick and Vidic are wrong side of 30 but could easily do 2 years at the top level. De Gea, Rafael, Jones, Smalling, Evans, Cleverley, Juanazai and Zaha are all young. The players like Rooney, Van Persie, Hernandez, Young, Nani, Valencia, Fletcher, Felliani and Kagawa should all be at their peak. Its all about the lack of quality. Throw Mata and Modric into that squad and all of a sudden it would look very different.

    John Fleck

    Gribz replied to sairdyy's topic in Rangers Chat

    Coventry started the season -10 points, so had they not they would be 5th and in the play offs, therefore Id say they are doing pretty well. TBH I forgot who Fleck was playing for these days, but I have been keeping an eye on their score every weekend to see how they are doing and I'll be reading a bit more from now on to see how Fleck is getting on. Id say things were probably unfair on him, he played a few matches and showed some glimpse of quality and all of a sudden he was going to be the next Rooney, it was so far off it was unreal. The only comparison he had with Rooney was build, looks and a tough tackle.

    Terry Butcher keen to bring Shiels to Hibs.......(Sky sports transfer news)
  25. Gribz
    Ive been saying the same for a while, yet can also see the argument FOR the signings as its a catch22 due to promotion being an absolute must every season. Just read Peter Lovenkrands is out of contract in the summer and at 33 qualifies for a 3 year deal with us
