My birthday is the 9th of September.

Happens to be a Scotland game at Hampden on the 8th, so looking to get a bunch of the lads to go in preparation for what will be a historic piss-up that night.

Anyone got any idea when tickets go on sale? The SFA website is useless.

Good mate of mine is a Mhank and he's extremely upset at the prospect of paying this kind of money for Brown.

We were joking earlier that the only fighting we should be doing over Robbie Fowler is "No, you have him!".

Sky have ditched Prem Plus next year as a way of competing with Setanta, in the sense that they don't want people to be able to say "Setanta don't make us pay extra for games like Sky do" kinda thing.

Aye Chris that was the Falkirk v. Rangers game.. it was fucking murder.

I like Setanta.. as much of an all round cunt as Burley is I love his honesty. His analysis of the game yesterday was brilliant.

"Can we call this garbage?"

Fair play if someone doesn't like Charlie Adam, but suggesting he should be punted to a team fighting relegation like Motherwell is fucking moronic.

Not for me.

Clumsy as fuck, basically.

Ugh.. I remember him looking like an absolute clown at Forest.

I was furious when we were being linked with him under Eck.

 

FM canny be wrong

Sorry for fucking the page up.

Well, I'm not really.

Made a winning on Kaka for first scorer, all I'm bothered about.

No offence Fraser, but no one click the one's Fraser posted.

Just look at this one.

It was on Soccer AM, they ran the 2 goals in a split screen, side by side.. it's fucking unbelievable how similar.

Even the celebration.

Well, Man Utd cleaned up at the Awards tonight.

Ronaldo got Player and Young Player of The Year (First to win both in one season since Andy Gray in 1977), and the Team of the Year was Man Utd's first pick XI with Gerrard, Berbatov and Drogba replacing Carrick and the front pairing.

Well deserved?

If ever there was one typical way for Celtic to wrap up the title, it would be a last minute Naka free kick.

Was really hoping Chelsea would win today, just for the race to be as tight as possible if nothing else.

Could be on to something there.

Right back, but still.

Rangers manager Walter Smith hopes to set up a player exchange programme with David Beckham's future employers, Major League Soccer outfit LA Galaxy.

The Glasgow side will face Galaxy in a friendly in the USA on 23 May.

And Smith told the Scottish Daily Express: "We will be holding talks with a view to setting up an exchange scheme that can help develop players.

"With Beckham already signed, they will attract the cream of American kids who want to play alongside a superstar."

Former England midfielder Beckham will join the Californian outfit in a five-year deal worth a reported �£128m once he leaves Real Madrid in the summer.

"When I was Scotland manager, I spoke to then USA coach Bruce Arena at Hampden and he felt the best-ever crop of American players was just about to break through," said Smith.

"A club like Rangers can't afford to ignore such a vast pool of talent and I can't think of a better club over there to have close ties with than LA Galaxy.

"We would be prepared to have their players and coaches at Murray Park for a few months at a time and vice versa.

"I don't foresee any problems and it's something I'm very keen on.

"There are no regulatory issues with younger players coming over and, while you need a work permit for those you want to sign at professional level, you oten find American lads have European links and even have passports for EC countries."

LA Galaxy general manager Alexi Lalas feels exchange schemes can help his club grow.

"If there was a chance for players to move between Glasgow and the US, for example, it could be beneficial for both clubs," said the former USA defender

"Establishing connections is important for us and Rangers come into that.

"For us, it is a chance to tap into their history and expertise."

We're such money hungry bastards brining out a new shirt every year.

I still maintain I would of liked to have seen him played alongside Weir for an extended period in a bid to bring the lad on a bit. There's onyl so much you can learn form someone in training.

Let's be honest, Ugo hasn't exactly been fantastic when he's been fit, steady, yes, but still. Would of liked to have seen if Weir could of helped Svensson come on a bit in the art of simply defending.

That was a sight.

I despise the fact that we seem to be one of very few clubs who maintain bringing out a new kit every year.

It took a good 6 months for me to come around to the one we have now, I love it now, and we'll be moving on from it just as quick.

Aye, if he's in tomorrow I'm gonna have to hold back my temptation to laugh in his face.

Guy handed me a coupon in work today.. and slapped £300 on the table. Turns out he only has one match on it aswell, Preston to beat Leeds tonight. He'll stand to make £675 if it comes up.

Would of been immense at right back! Right, Fraser?

He's still a pure knob end though when he's out in town.

"You know who I am?"

Knew videos of this would come to light.

Embarrassing.
