Getting first team football will help him but i just get the feeling we wont see the best of Smith again, he has had a tough time. Hope im wrong though

Next week then! Too soon for me, im looking towards then end of Feb. Il have a look at our fixture card to see how we have in the league

What date is the game? Im planning a trip over Feb/March so want to take a game in.

What was the crowd last night? By going to the semi final does it mean you get a final ticket? or how does it work?

Id say there is a shout for Novo, Boyd and Miller to be in the team or swap Miller with Fleck. That way WS gets his 4-5-1 / 4-3-3 with proper players in the wider positions and Davis benefits by moving in one.

You enjoy it! You've been so use to smoke signals and birds flying in with the messages in recent times

Robinho is making a mockery of things, he'll end up getting Hughes the sack. If i was Hughes id be trying to punt him to Chelsea in a deal for Malouda even if they made a loss on him

Aye, then he held the ball before it went out for a throwing to get his 2nd card - silly guy! Portsmouth board are still willing to fund Adams though, they are linked with a few players today

That thought would never cross my mind either except if your name is Jon :devil:

Novo is a must for the remainder of the season - a true attack minded player with talent. He can score when playing upfront! Ibrox used to be a lot wider IIRC but we narrowed it about 10 years ago. If you look at clips from the mid 90s its much wider.

Is that a 24 hour outcall contact Frankie??? Remember Im 8 hours ahead and need my daily dose of Gersnet with my coffee in the morning ;)

I wasnt close last night: Rangers - Won Spurs - Won Birmingham - Won Peterboro - Won Mk Dons - Lost Sheff U - Lost

Me also, but i managed to catch the final whistle

Portsmouth fans chanting "you dont know what your doing" to Adams

LOL But totally agree, I cant think of 2 bigger failures at managerial level. Butcher has been rank rotten at Coventry, Sunderland, Brentford, Sydney and Motherwell. Malpas was worse at Motherwell and Swindon. Gretna had a better chance of survival last season than Inverness have now!

Strange decision, his managerial career has been shocking. Yet they had a few decent people interested. Hopefully he quits the Scotland set up aswell. That may do the national team a favour. Get Gary McAllister in there as No.2.

Something will crack at Man City. Hughes mext few results will determine whether it will be him or not. I think signing the likes of Bridge and bellamy are better than world stars for Hughes to handle so Kaka not going may have done him a favour. Robinho is obviously wanted the fook out of there though. Manchester cant be his cup of tea at all.

Yeah I can see the pattern of heading back to the same as Vogts days. And I just cant see it getting better under Burley. He has shot himself in the foot a few times by handing out bizarre caps along with a few strange decisions. Taking Butcher and Pressley on as his No.2 and 3 havent helped 1 bit. I was probably 60/40 in Burleys favour when he took the job but im certainly around 20/80 against now. His team makes the Craig Brown days look marvellous. Looking back I was never a Brown fan but the squads he had were superb and he didnt have too bad a record for us! Maybe start another thread in footie chat about Burley.

I dont think he will be made a scapegoat at all. Burley is doing a bad enough job to show its his fault. If Burley picks Boyd for the squads yet not the starting line up then thats Burleys call again. It will be interesting to see Boyds reaction if Scotland do qualify for the World Cup! He will be itching to go! Yet that Norway game has stacked all the odds against us and i cant see it now.

Is Burley not man enough to call up Boyd and say he wants him to play for Scotland rather than this chinese whispers through the media! Burley is employed by the SFA to do the best for his country yet he isnt doing so. Im far from Boyds biggest fan but i maintain he should easy have been played before 2 debutants in the Norway game although his attitude maybe have what left him out. This situation has made Boyd a better player so he should be the 1 with a smile on his face and be ready to return for Scotland. He has to remember he is also representing his country and not Burley alone. The situation stinks from both ends for me.

More than Boyd?? :devil: Im maybe in a minority here but Thomson hasnt ever impressed me that much whenever ive seen him. He has had a few good games but thats it. Its maybe due to the fact I see selected games and have missed out on him at his best as everyone here seems to rave about him. He did seem to be striking up a good partnership with Mendes, so as said previously getting an injury has saved WS a huge headache to allow BF back in the team. RE Davis, he is by far a different player when playing in a more free central role. WS is ruining him by playing right wing. Id rather he sit on the bench and wait until BF moves on than be picked for the sake of getting in the team. Novo and Aaron are our only natural players for right wing at the moment, plus Fleck could play there. Davis and Thomson are both approx 23 years old so both are long term future midfielders for us and must stay.

I thought Chimbonda was a LB. Hutton is easy there best option when fit but Harry obviously doesnt fancy him. He started at Spurs well but had a bad game in the 4-4 at Arsenal which was when Redknapp arrived. The boy Bale is crap and I dont think Redknapp was impressed. I think HR just wants his own squad in.

I fancy a go at this seen as i cant win with accumulators!

Yeah I heard that which baffled me! He has been awful at Wycombe and now Portsmouth.

This could make Boumsong look a good signing! Ian Crocker could have a field day if Newcastle got their way and signed all this OF players. Crocker is forever mentioning when teams play "The Old Firm". This does my head in as its either Rangers or Celtic playing! Ive never seen the OF play in the same team before and he mentions it EVERY game "when teams are playing the OF". We dont want to be classed with them...:box:
