Disagree Pete, Walter is a Gers legend IMO for leading us to all the domestic success in the 90s. He did get handed a good side but in 1991 he changed the face of many players in the team with the likes of Goram, McCall, Miko, then the likes of Huistra, Durie etc followed before the big ones of laudrup and Co.

I was a little gutted today coz I was going to slap all my winnings on a Birmingham and Spurs double yesterday and id of got 1700 back. My thinking was its money i didnt have on friday. Maybe i was being a bit greedy but it was tempting, but i held off at the last minute so im happy with my winnings.

Another mad derby that wont get a look in from UEFA. I just dont know how can UEFA justify not clamping down on these teams when serious issues like stabbing etc occur.

Ive never heard of Grant Stott, but i couldnt think of a worse line up than those names above bar Archie McPherson. Ive always thought Archie was alright and i like his commentary. Andy Walker and Owen Coyle are as big a mhanks as you can find, not sure about Colquhoun, I assume he is a jambo. No comment about Spiers or McNee, both are laughable cavemen who should be banned from Ibrox. Spiers has got the most appealing face to punch on the planet and when he "tuts" before he says a sentance has to be the most annoying thing ive ever seen.

Agree with your post Frankie, but no more so than this. Ive raised this point a few times in my 3 years on GersNet. We no longer have a hero status player IMO, or the ones who are potential our favourites are becoming scarce. They have been phasing out over the last few years with the likes of Klos, Lovenkrands, De Boer, Ferguson (before transfer) and Prso our last lot. Maybe we were too spoilt in the 80s and especially 90s. The 90s is the era I grew up as a kid and into my teens watching Rangers and I know I was spoilt by McCoist, Hateley, Gough, Goram, Laudrup, Gascoigne and Albertz. I feel for the kids watching Rangers just now, its scary that if your around 16 years old you wouldnt remember much about Gascoigne and Laudrup - It feels like they graced our pitch a few short years ago. Looking at the current Rangers team Im a huge fan of Prso but as stated by Frankie the big man's career is over. IMO Ferguson has never been the same player as he was from the period 1998-2003 and been far too inconsistant to warrent any hero status. On his day he can still run a football match but on an off day he can be rotten. But to Fergusons credit he is maybe the 1 who knows what its all about pulling the shirt on, however being captain he sometimes goes about things the wrong way but thats getting into another story. However, we have pulled in 2 legends in Walter and Ally to run the team and as it currently stands they are probably the fans favourites at the moment. They have a huge task with minimum funds to knit a new team together which the Ibrox faithfull can get right behind again. The door is open for new players to stand up and take this mantle however!!!

That Sarah'O' burd was a bit of alright, those cans had me in a trance. Is that Shetland twat still on it? Ive no idea where they found a joker like that from. (Shetland obviously).

Cheers mate, you must have had your coupon up aswell with Chelsea nicking it late. Who else did you have on???

Strange playing so soon after the end of the season. Pity Beckham wont be there yet. Anyone fancy gathering a get together for this?

I certainly did have the bet on lads and its a double boost. I got the above coupon up AND i went for 7 homes like 2 weeks ago and it came up also: Scunthorpe 2/5 Stoke 10/11 Hull Evs Colchester 11/10 Man U 2/7 Charlton Evs Bolton 8/13 Had a fiver on that so got 233 return - add that to my 360 for the first coupon and its 593 quid back from both bets Perfect timing aswell, im off to Hong Kong on holiday next week. Cyber pints all round :thup:

I thought this was going to be a petition to get Scotsport off the air or to stop talking nonsense.

Rumours saying WS and Ally were at Windsor pk to watch a Swedish player and wont be going to Healy. Also, Koevermans is linked again for 2 million.

Interesting point, IF and its IF we did get parts of the stadium closed - would Rangers reimburse the fans for the games they wouldnt get to see? Surely the club have to think about this and there silence is more confusing. Anyway, A season ticket is only for Celtic games and CL matches, you can buy tickets for all others at ibrox. When i gave up mine i still got to OF games through being a bond holder with my season ticket in the club deck. However if i was all your shoes, id be re-newing if the cash was available and doing what Frankie said - sticking a note on the my form.

Aye, draws never really jumped out at me this week but i fancy Cardiff v Sunderland. Thought about Wolves v Southampton aswell but think Wolves will win that. Fulham v Portsmouth could be another - crikey you've got me started. What you going to Newcastle for bud? A bit of Geordie totty?

CHARLTON v Wigan Evs WEST HAM v Middlesboro 10/11 Barnsley v DERBY 11/10 HULL v Southend Evs Qpr v WEST BROM 5/4 360 return from a tener.

Just read that he isnt retiring though and will play in a more relaxed league. I thought he was retiring. He could easy have done a bit part job for us and just not trained every day.

Personally i think he's got more chance of playing in Rugby Leagues Premiership.

Fraser mate, you cant be serious about that?? After watching McCoists video in the other section, Boyd cant be compared to Coisty at all. And Healy certainly isnt Hateley Big Mark played with Monaco and AC Milan before us.

Aye, but back to the club coupon this weekend. I'll be having a wee look soon and decided which bookie is getting my tener this week.

Anyone else experiencing some pages opening slow or sticking and not even opening at all. Every 5th or 6th page i open sticks

Not a good thing to read, but the big mans knees come first. Absolute legend, he is a breathe of fresh air and gave everything with he wore the shirt and replacing him will be almost impossible. - Mcleish's best signing by an absolute country mile and that includes bringing back Ferguson. Big Dado was on same wavelength with the likes of Albertz for being a foreigner who knew what it meant to play for Rangers. The thing is, even with an injury he is still the best we have. I hope he plays a bit more this season and gets a well deserved send off.

We have to play 2 upfront. I really hope Teale isnt going to be a regular in the team. Big Eck always liked a bad egg in the Gers team, i hope this isnt his Scotland version. Malkys midfield is fine but id have Fletcher in the team and probably McFadden ahead of Maloney.

I cant see us paying a lot with the state Leeds are in. They could still be relegated to League 1 and then he would definatly leave.

I remember him having a bad spell at Villa but not as bad as the Equador striker who went there (or was that Southampton?) Ive no idea about his spell at Brugge.

The sooner we get Stevie Smith back the better. Ian Murray has been poor.

Good luck to him at his next club but if he is thinking of England then he better look up Stockport, Bury and Chesterfield on the map as thats his level IMO. He had a couple of half decent seasons for Dundee but thats it. Its a shame about his injuries but he has never been good enough for Rangers. When he leaves he will be on par with the likes of Gary Bollan as Ex Gers players - remembered for being gash.
