Its certainly different. It will probably look good if your slim and good looking but if your a wee fat old bald guy with a massive beer belly and you cant get it past you waste then it will look terrible

I wonder how many on here are scratching their heads thinking "where's phukkem"

He is still about 4 or 5 years from being ready for the first team. I cant see him being thrown in before he is 18. But 1 for the future Well done on knocking back Chelsea - there shite anyway

Maloney is pretty pacey - not a world beater but he can get around. Ive no idea about Beattie. I wouldnt be downbeat if Boyd started (and i think he will) as I prefer to see Gers players in the team but the midfield HAVE to set service to him if he does. I really hope, no matter what team Eck goes with, its a 4-4-2 and not 1 upfront.

Just as I submitted my reply McCulloch came to my head as the 5th striker if need be, and its vice versa with Maloney as he can be left wing. Going into a tournament like the WC there would be an argument for 3 or 4 keepers but not when its 2 games and you can still call up players after the first game if the team did a chelsea and lost 2 keepers in 1 game. Im not getting at McLeish at all here, i actually think the squad is finely balanced and we are covered in every area. And as i said on an earlier post there are still otheres to come into the squad later like Fletcher and McFadden. IMO I just think strating with 2 pacey strikers against the Georgians is the way to go.

After reading your post Craig im in agreement that a 5th striker would have been wise. To have as much keepers as strikers in the squad sounds slightly daft. But as you say its each to there own.

Further to the McNamara thing, I did read on the BBC he is playing well for Wolves, but he is 33/34 now and has came out of internation retirement to play. Thats ok and fair play to him for doing that but surely when we have Hutton on top form he needs to be in the squad for long term solution. McLeish obviously called up the keeper Turner for experience so why not Hutton?

Yeah I said he should have played there in the 2nd leg in Osasuna. That way he doesnt over flood the central midfield and would tend to stay in the opposition half and hit on the break. He could still be done with toughing up a bit though. As for Hutton - IMO He should be in the Scotland squad on merit, he is my player of the month in the SPL by a mile. He has done superbly against Hibs Celtic and Aberdeen - The 3 other better sides in the league after ourselves. I read the other day on BBC that McNamara had been playing well for Wolves. He retired last year and is now 33/34 so Hutton should be in the squad for long term solution.

Its not a bad shout Ian (SPL) even though it does effect the majority who go to watch the team. I think you would still get a lot of travelling support trying to get tickets for the home ends of the ground and that could cause a bit of trouble. But it would be great to see the chairmans faces of the other clubs when they dont get the much needed revenue we provide. Its a shame we have to consider this option when we have actually travelled good in the past without anything major happening. then you look to Italy and see stabbings etc.

That is a classic example of the aberdeen supporters mentalily tho They cant ever think of anything constructive to say. This is also the benefits of a forum - opinions. Any problems or aquisations you have please PM me. And i think you'll find that im clearly not the only one on here who says Boyd is shite.

First sign of insanity But Gordon's lack of form is down to the laughable goings on at Hearts. But Gordon or McGregor in the sticks will be fine

Yeah its worth a shout and i did consider it but I think Gordon will rise to the Scotland scene. Guys like him, Pressley and Miller always seem to be that bit better in a scotland shirt.

Or Hullo Hullo We Are the Rangers Boys Hullo Hullo You'll Know Us By Our Noise We'll Give Anything To See Our Team, At Ibrox Or Away For We Are The Super Rangers Boys

Oh well, Anderson in for Pressley. Id keep Maloney upfront. Its not a bad squad when we can still add Hutton, Thomson, Riordon, O Connor, Fletcher, McFadden etc

This is what got me. Why are we not allowed to sing the tune but others are?? Surely that has to be looked into. But its obvious neds would use the wrong word but IF and its a massive IF - all the neds didnt use the wrong words then how could they stop us. IMO this song was once a symbol of Rangers - The words Hullo Hullo were used for many things. All we need to do is drop the F word.

Interesting debate. However what chance have we got of iradicating the problems when our own support is divided on issued - and thats not including the effteepee brigade. So we are split into 3 or 4 groups. So IMO its up to the club to set the rules out and Murray must speak out. I dont think UEFA are actually going to come down to hard with other songs. I think the club informed them last year after villareal what is sectarian and whats not. The media are not an issue. They are always going to print junk about us whatever happens. I wouldnt bring Donald Finlay back either - he is over in my neck of the woods anyway. Also, football and politics are 2 seperate issues - thats one simple thing that needs educated into the heads of some fans all over the country.

Fair enough about Alexander as Preston have been playing well. But i cant agree with Dailly, he has played about 4 games for West Ham this season and been rank rotten. Surely Russell Anderson is ahead of him and mcmanus.

I think thats the realistic thing - close the gap and make it more respectable. If we finish say 7 points behind them then WS has closed a 21 point gap down to 7 for eg. That will tell them we mean business for next season. If they lose at Tannadice its still 10 points if we win our next game. So they would need to lose at home to Motherwell, but even 7 pts going into the split would be tough to over haul

Dailly and Alexander?? I think you are McLeish

Massive game for scotland, we just need to take these 3 points and worry about italy later. Tough selection and no doubt McLeish will throw up a huge head scratcher but id go for this: (although Brown was close for Quashie) _________________Gordon_____________ McNamara____Weir______Pressley____Naysmith Hartley_____Ferguson____Quashie___McCulloch ___________Miller_______Maloney________

Hans Gillhaus was a great player but he bats for the other side - that was well known in aberdeen at the time. Yeboah was awesome, my sister met him in Ghana about 9 years ago

If ever there deserved to be a goal........ That would have been in the top 5 goals of all time had that went in

It was on the BBC rumour pages ya cunny funts

IMO the club havent done enough to get rid of the problems. They havent identified individual culprets who are responsible and it could now lead into us being kicked out of europe or playing behind closed doors. I bet the money makers at ibrox will complain then when they dont make every buck that they possibly could. I think even the fans have to do something now like start pointing out those who are making these ridiculous non football related songs.

...Deserves a bit of praise at the moment. He is getting better every week and has been outstanding against Celtic and Aberdeen. We have always said we want him to get back to his form Pre-leg break and I said the mental side and confidence would take time having experienced a bad break myself. IMO he is actually playing better now than he was pre injury. He is getting into great offensive positions. But he has to keep this standard up and improve even more. His crossing isnt the best in the world, but he is getting near a level which would convince me he is our long term RB.
