  1. Newcastle oot to Stephen Age. Nice win on Giggs getting first goal... I couldnt believe my luck when he took the pen.
  2. Pretty much agree with all this bar the final part about the split. Teams in top half should still play same amount as bottom half as the 2 games less would be played at the end of the season where there is no likelyhood of European football. I would prefer just playing everyone twice in a 16 team set up but a split to get an extra OF game would still be good. Also RE the play offs, the only problem with this is seeing Hampden half empty for a play off with Dunfermline v Dundee makes it look like a poor match plus sounds poor on TV. Switch this type of fixture to Easter Road where you wold get a packed 20,000 would create an atmosphere give a better game.
  3. After the midweek results I thought at least 2 from Avram Grant, Carlo Ancelotti, Roy Hodgson and Gerard Houllier would have been sacked, especially Grant and Hodgson. With Chelsea there is something wrong behind the scenes there and Houllier has brought Villa from a top 6 side to a bottom 6 side.
  4. Once again non footballing men making silly decisions. I dont mean that you had to play football to be a football man, most fans talk plenty sense and can see the simple picture but too much business short term decisions get brought in nowadays. Everyman and his dog can see the leagues need cut to 3 divisions with a 16 or 18 team top flight with a 2 up 2 down from the 2nd tier.
  5. I well thought we would win yesterday, if anything it says more about us than them as i still cant believe how bad they are. If we win our games in hand we are back on top but yesterday game has left a sour taste in my mouth. Does it make the 3-1 look like a fluke???
  6. TBH i thought he was our best player today. He was the only one who a) wanted the ball and b) had a go at them.
  7. Scottish greats from my time who Id buy back - Cooper, Dalglish, McLeish, Miller, Leighton, Goram, Gemmill, McCoist, Lambert, Gough, Durrant, Ferguson.....etc...does Boyd deserve to be near any of them?? not a chance! Boyd is a donkey.
  8. Garbage. If Arsenal had everyone fit for the last 3 years they would be on 3 in a row. Terry, Fat Frank and a few others got injured and chelsea got found out. Im really enjoying seeing chelsea struggle. Their sub bench against Arsenal was great! Bolton will probably finish 5th
  9. Seeing John Terrys face was brilliant at 3-3. Glad to see Chelsea being shown up. On the BBC predictor i had them 11 points behind man utd by now and my mate said i was nuts...not too far off!
  10. As a anti-barry ferguson person (2nd spell) I cant believe how much he would walk into the midfield due to talent these days. McCulloch was found out today - he is a fraud. Young Hutton is by far the best midfielder we have and should be playing
  11. ^ agreed Mike, the centre midfield is so short since Thomson left and made up of Lee "i play anywhere" Mcculloch and Davis who is better on the right. Still wouldnt have Boyd back. If we were resulting 0-0 every week this season then there might be an argument for it but its a no brainer that we are better without him.
  12. He makes Webster look like he has been a success. Darren Anderton played more for Spurs
  13. What a limited manager he is. 5 good mins at Ipswich and 9 good games at Hearts....the rest is just a shambles
  14. And the Appy Ammers are out of the bottom 3 although its still papering over the cracks coz Avram Grant is still not manager material.
  15. U mean Want?? Heh sorry chief, I never correct folks spelling as Im probably top of the league on here for that but after a few beers it needs to be done. 1 more and Im hitting the town.
  16. Ive no fear for this signing at all. Ljungberg was quality for Arsenal in a top notch side but was finished when he was 29/30. He went to West Ham and I watched nearly all the games he played and he was a fraction of what he was at Arsenal. He isnt a play maker and will rely on their other dumplings setting him up playing 1 touch fast stuff which Celtic cant do.
  17. He would be a starter for me in a free role. If Naismith is injured then good chance for Weiss to play right wing where he is better.
  18. I have a grip, I have watched Rangers this season and enjoyed it from Day 1 in Pre Season Australia when we played 4-3-3 against Blackburn and played them off the park until the last OF game 2nd half etc....away at Pittodrie earlier this season we hit them on the break with cracking goals which Boyd would still have been crossing the half way line. We have more goals and better play due to the boy with sand in his shoes departing! It was good riddance in the summer for me!!. I wanted Novo to stay but we arent even missing him bar squad numbers
  19. Id honestly prefer we take Velicka back from Aberdeen that resign Boyd and I dont think Velicka can kick a ball anymore.
  20. Head says 2-0 Rangers, heart says 3-0. They have an absolute rank defence plus upfront they couldnt get past Dundee Utd, Inverness and Killie and home so if we perform it could be a stroll.

    Game Off!!!

    Unbelievable, I was planning on going down tomorrow.
  22. Absolutely agree! From a Rangers point of view. :grin:
  23. Read the report on the BBC then look at the teams. Without doubt the worst celtic team since early 90s when they almost went bust. Didnt even recognise half the names. Cant wait for the NY OF derby, WS gets a strong side out and we should pump them.
  24. Wasnt sure to put this in this thread or the "we cant buy anyone thread". If we got all our injured players back (and they all cant be far away) then things dont seem to doom and gloom, of course unless we start to pick up more injuries - Webster is a banker anyway. The players have had the best part of 3 weeks without playing which is a good chance to recharge some batteries for the mass fixture pile up in the 2nd half of the season. But if players like Hutton, Wylde, Fleck, Ness, Little, Kerkar, Weiss all get more games and perform well then its all good. At the moment Hutton would be in my starting XI and id like to see Fleck and Kerkar get on more. Weiss has ability but seems to be thinking elsewhere and he hasnt played on the right where he should. Jelavic is 1-2 weeks away from returning meaning we have him, Miller, Lafferty and Beattie available upfront. Throw in Fleck, Naismith and Weiss to play attacking roles and our forward options are fine. Centre midfield is still where Im concerned, I wasnt a big Kevin Thomson fan but when he was sold I knew the numbers went down to low. Hutton looks a player though. Centre half is light also but if Webster can make himself available it would be a help. The "limited" Broadfoot has embarrassed Webster this season with good performances and the fact I found astounding was Weir has missed less games than Webster has played for Rangers in the last 3 years.
