Im on the same page as you. Every Rangers team I can remember has had the odd home bizarre defeat like the Motherwell game, I remember being a game in 2000 under Advocaat as Kilmarnock won 3-0 at Ibrox. But they were total one offs and the bounce back was immediate. That defeat at Dingwall for me was the game where it all started and thats the one we didnt recover from.

Goodison gets a good atmosphere but if ever there was a stadium that was tired looking its that one. Im sure there will be the digital advertisements and scoreboard around the concrete middle before the start of next season which will finish that stadium off nicely. I thought the capacity would be a bit more than 52,888 they could have got nearer 60,000. Clubs building stadiums like Leicester, Stoke, Southampton and Derby was common for a while but there seems to be a lot of people saying they become soulless and clubs have gone away with that which is great. Aston Villa are adding 8000 seats with a new stand which will make Villa Park up to date and pretty awesome. Spurs built on White Hart Lane Site. Man Utd will either rebuild Old Trafford or build on site. Newcastle will build on current site (albeit may move 100-200 meters behind the current stadium). Nottingham Forest are staying at the City Ground and building a new stand. Palace - Building a new stand.

Poor result for Bayern that! Fair one to Feyenoord, I fancied them yesterday to go through.

Capitulated is the right word - and havent recovered since those results, just further regression. If it was a blip then fair enough, he originally had enough credit after getting us into the title race this time last year after Beale disaster but now we have gone a longer period with these poor performances and results so quite rightly massive questions to be asked.

Second legs tonight. AC Milan v Feyenoord (0-1) - This will be tough for Milan to overturn, I think it could go to Penalties. Atalanta v Club Brugge (1-2) I think a home win and enough to go through. Benfica v Monaco (1-0) home win to finish the job. Bayern Munich v Celtic (2-1) I think Bayern hit them for 3 or 4.

Sunderland have probably blown their chances of auto promotion, a couple of bad home draws and lates goals. Although its Sheff Utd v Leeds next Monday night so the door may open again especially for Burnley.

There is no way they will go down, Ipswich and Wolves would need to win 4 more games out of 13 than Man Utd and thats not happening.

Yeah Butland. Outfield Hagi but Dessers was good when he came on.

Holy Mahogany - Long long long time Pete. Hope you are doing well. For the thread - I'm trying to think of the most bizarre, it would defo be overseas somewhere

Tottenham win to get back to back league wins and 12th is slightly better on the eye for them. But Man Utd are in crisis, I dont think Amorin signed up for this and I can see him walking unless he gets about 7 first teamers in the summer.

Agreed chaps, Boyd drives me bonkers. He seems to have a personal agenda. We all want more effort and more attractive football. However we still have a far bigger budget than the other 10 league clubs and there is no excuse for being so poor away from home at St Mirren, Motherwell, Dundee etc.

I hear what you are saying but yesterday was a bizarre way to win, no way can we rely on 2 own goals every week and the keeper keeping us in it at 0-0.

Not sure what to say. That might go down as our worst win ever if there is such a thing. Second half was better than the first but it wasnt exactly difficult to play like the first 45 again. I dont think the manager or players can hide, that result actually papers over a lot of cracks. Still - a nice way to stick it up to Hearts though.

Got to sign McCart in the summer It was a great ball from Hagi back in his 10 role

One team that cant defend against one team that cant attack, it could be any scoreline. Liverpool v Wolves isnt a great game to be part of a Super Sunday double, fair enough if it was at Molineux but this should be a routine comfortable home win.

Absolute dire on the eye, Butland 3 top notch saves although he created the third one. Very lucky to be leading.

Depressing. I have the feeling we will get out numbered in midfield today

City back in the top 4 and I expect them to stay there and eventually get 3rd. There are just grounds teams never turn up and Newcastle cant show up at the Etihad. Bournemouth in 5th is unreal, and as it stands in a Champions League place. West Ham - disaster. The PE teacher is off to a slow start. The manager they should have went for was in the opposite dugout. Everton - What a transformation Moyes has done, they are now going for top 10. Arsenal - cant run the rest of the season hoping midfielders will bail them out like that.

And Eustace first game is a hammering at QPR that was so bad they dropped into the relegation zone on goal difference. The teams around them have 2 games in hand but luckily for Derby that Hull, Luton and Plymouth all have tough fixtures today

I hope you lumped something on that 7/4. The first goal from Mitoma is goal of the season - absolutely world class. And well done both the player and the club for rejecting 70M in the transfer window. Didnt see that hammering coming at all, I watched most of the game and Chelsea were so poor and out played.

Ok chaps, your going to have to help me out with a few names in the back row that has gone over my head - firstly this team would be circa 1975?? Ive got, Gordon Smith, Alex Miller, and Peter McCloy in the back row. Front: Sandy Jardine, Derek Johnstone, Alex McDonald, John Greig, Tommy McLean, Not Sure and Davie Cooper.

Hearts are in good form, they havent lost since the Edinburgh derby on Boxing day. They were dog awful in the first half of the season and the only time they showed up was on the opening day of the season against us with a 0-0. So they will be up for this again with 3rd place in their sights. Ive no idea what to expect from our side but its getting a bit repetitive that they are due us a performance. All that aside, Im looking forward to the game.

But they will be thankful Craig Levein created the 4-6-0 formation now that Havertz joins Jesus in the treatment room.

Was just doing the Hearts prediction thread and remembered I didnt reply to this one. I came into it too late and would be well off the pace so thought I'd just do my score predictions but no need for Rousseau to add me in. However I'll be promoted into it next season and be going for a European spot. That 4-0 Hagi was worth double points.

Hearts 1-1 Rangers FGS Igamane
