Gribz

Anyone who would Boo McGregor would be bonkers and they know that. Like Goram I think even our most fierce rivals know how good he is and what top form he is in.

None with the recent squad due to injury etc but lets see the next squad when all our players are fit. McCrorie, Jack and Dorrans should all walk into it.

Looking forward to seeing Grezda. Id still start Morelos against Hamilton to try get the tie wrapped up early then perhaps start with Grezda wide for fitness purposes, alternatively give him the last half hour upfront if we are leading. We will be stuck for the Semi though, could Candeias even be an option through the middle in that game? That could mean Tav playing ahead of Flanagan for width.

I think its fair to say Rangers are moving forward and Scotland are moving backwards. Overall Scotland have been on a mass downward spiral for the best part of 15 years and of course the SFA wouldnt even consider looking long term back then with a Belgian, Spanish, German type model in place. We are never going to reach that heights but you see countries of similar population punching well above their weight. I would say the current Scottish Gers would at least be in any 23 man squad but its pretty obvious the SFA have a criteria to keep to - of course that wont be admitted but we all know the fans of other clubs would become Boo boys if there is a team with Gers players.

Aberdeen complaining about 16000 tickets with an option for 4000 more. If it was St mirren they were playing would they be saying the same. They are only going because its Rangers.

What helps a defenders confidence is having Scotlands No.1 behind them. McGregor has been outstanding and hasnt looked like he has been away. Shame he is 36. I think when you get a keeper of this quality they will always be even better playing in their comfort zone and for the team they support which is why McGregor (like Goram) is never anything less than a 9/10. And playing for Rangers can be quite tough for some players so its a compliment saying McGregor is in his comfort zone with Rangers.

That was a good listen again. Heard the first few viz youtube and its always an enjoyable listen. The contributors are realistic, level minded and just talk sense from what they see which is refreshing.

Interesting, I dont really see much Anelka in him. He reminds me a bit like Daniel Cousin who could be unplayable on his day.

Agreed, from the games Ive watched Katic looks quality and the best so far. I think the addition of Worrell is clever though as we need 4 centre halfs for the amount of games and Gerrard is just giving them all game time. With McAuley and McCrorie then the position is covered.

Cheers buddy, it was a busy summer. Hope your well.

Rangers 2-0 Hearts Morelos FGS (no need to add me to the table if there is still one). So long as there is no hangover from Thursday then it should be a win. The Edinburgh sides have done OK at Ibrox in the last season or two so its time to correct that.

Having him sign a new contract was vital he has been a good find. Was it JJ who got him over? Gerrard obviously rates him and likes him playing on the edge which I agree with and having Lafferty as a back up is good business.

How you doing Pete. Was listening to you on the podcast a few times, good stuff. (grumpy old bugger) ?

Assumption is the mother of all f*** ups, yet because you said this we will let you off. ? Calscots fingers have probably worn away with the length of his posts ?

Like Ian said Parma was good but probably Bayern Munich under Advocaat. 1-1 going on 10-1

Ooosh... All I can say is Everton though. Ive done 3 aways today. Arsenal, Chelsea and Man City.

Your right mate Saturday card not the best and I just reluctantly parted with 50 bucks on a Burnley, Watford and Everton Treble. Watford is my iffy one. I fancy Everton strongly today with a good price. I do like Klopp but cant stand Liverpool and think its time Pep got one back on them. I just think Man City are starting to show a bit of professional class which eluded them previously. Arsenal are really intriguing at the moment, same personnel mainly but over a few transfer windows may have some quality and this gaffer likes attacking football. Im not fully convinced yet but they are good to watch and they could sneak top 4. Tottenham need 3 squad players or they will have a bad time mid season.

I would say it is, we arent the 6th best team in Scotland. League tables usually take around 10 games to map out. Always room for improvement.

Yo Scott...how you doing mate. Im taking a Man City win this weekend, I hope they go there and stuff liverpool. Elsewhere. Arsenal should win and are building something, a few good signings and they will be awesome.

Thought the first half was average with good effort. Second half was immense. Whats good about things now is Gerrard installs and expects what he did...and unlike Roy Keane he has social skills to relay this. League position is fake at present, we were by far the better side at Pittodrie and should have had another 2 pts. Motherwell and Livi was two out of the blue games we would get in any era except they were close together and Im sure Stevie will sort that. Im quite enjoying RTV except the sound quality from the stadium is shite though...

Solanke and Ings were mentioned on Premier League TV on Saturday. Don Hutch said Liverpool are bringing in a world class striker and it will allow one or both of these to go north with Stevie G.

Docherty on. Christ, he should have started along with Goss. Its easy maths.

Goal difference taking a hiding here, that was an extra point in the fight for second. Its now bordering unsafe if we lose at Aberdeen and Hibs.

No other team in the league get a whipping like this, its embarrassing and its due to behind the scenes nonsense. Beaten in the mind before kick off.

This is appalling. Not even teams like Hamilton or Partick gift them and get walked through like that. Massive internal issues and I hope that is relayed to the incoming manager.
