  1. Considerable disturbance in Swansea last night as mourners after a funeral set fire to a car, crash another one into it, break windows and attack police. Residents warned to stay indoors for their own safety. Will FM Sturgeon be calling on fellow celt-socialist, Drakeford, to deplore the incident and take the strongest measures against those involved and anybody else he can think of while he’s at it? Nothing to do with the SG, of course but that’s never stopped her from yapping about other people’s business.
  2. The origins of keelie I know not. I only mention the derivation propounded by Jack House, the Weegie-Kimg. Other speculations of equal validity are available. Did Weegie start in Leith? Wouldn’t be surprised. Much mischief comes out of there.
  3. The curtain falls on a season of predictions, abject even by my own pathetic standards. Gunners 4-1 BHA The Villa 0-3 Chelsea Fulham 1-2 Magpies Leeds 4-0 Baggies Leicester 1-3 ‘Spurs Liverpool 4-0 Palace City 2-2 Everton Blades 2-2 Burnley Hammers 1-2 So’ton Wolves 1-3 United
  4. Players about whom I could make a sensible judgement as opposed to childish adoration: Bill Brown, Danny McGrain, Eric Caldow, John Greig (C) Ronnie McKinnon Jim Baxter, Gordon Smith (Hibs) Kenny Dalglish, Alan Gilzean, Denis Law, Davie Wilson.
  5. How would bbc know? They weren’t there.
  6. Can’t help. My knowledge of current Scottish footballers who don’t play for Rangers is minimal. I like the look of Nisbet at Hibs. Gallagher knows how to defend. McTominey has had a solid season. Armstrong and Forrest are good players though Forrest like Robertson hasn’t been at his best. McLaughlin for ‘keeper of course. Patterson, why not? Tierney plays some magical stuff if he’s able. Can you have a team of fullbacks? Dykes from the Billy Houliston school of centre-forwarding, Dumfries. McGinn must be good - everybody says so. Is that eleven yet? Mibbees Gilmour.
  7. Either of Gazza’s famous outfield two against Aberdeen is the main contender for the greatest goal but they are only contenders, the holder of the title being Kai’s epic thunderbolt.
  8. Willie Miller could get “I seen” and “I’ve saw” in the same sentence.
  9. 40 - 50 kids (some of them in their twenties, thirties) trashed a beach a fortnight ago. Abolish kids, Yousaf? Educating them might be better.
  10. I hope the Club would endorse that article, send it to the SG and ask them if they think the author represents the majority of Rangers supporters. He speaks for me on this.
  11. You think so? Tiger’s second favourite in that contest.
  12. I doff my. Bonnet to Mrs Compo for her reasonable and understanding attitude. Not all spouses are content to let their other halves muse happily to themselves.
  13. Is this going to restrict your availability to contribute here?
  14. Dundee for old times sake. Billy Steel shouda-played-for-Rangers Loyal.
  15. True but I know what @Charlochmeans. The diversity of the team and the women’s XI are blanked out by the opposition. Rangers had a distinguished captain in Roman Catholic Lorenzo Amoruso but that doesn’t suit the agenda so it’s ignored.
  16. Not much time left to get this right. United 4-0 Fulham So’ton 1-2 Leeds BHA 2-1 City Chelsea 2-0 Leicester Everton 2-1 Wolves Newcastle 3-1 Blades Hotspur 2-1 Villa Palace 0-2 Arsenal Burnley 1-3 Liverpool Baggies 0-2 Hammers
  17. FF has posted a dreadful article in the Edinburgh Evening News written by Helen Martin of whom I have never heard. Anything known?
  18. Time to stop laughing at Yousaf and more than time to expose his practical ineptitude as a minister.
  19. Congratulations, old bean. Just remember the advice of Bob Ferris and Terry Collier, Friday night is lads’ night. Midweek football, Saturdays and Sunday mornings are also reserved times. My own advice: if you’ve got a garage, shed or even boiler room, defend them to the last square inch. The rest of the house is for Mrs gs.
  20. The Championship hasn’t offered anything exciting this season compared to last or the season before. I hope it’s Brentford but @Gribzis probably right, they haven’t got enough. Neither Bournemouth nor Barnsley have any appeal. C’mon ye Swans as we say in Welsh.
  21. First replay showed that immediately. It’s the delay that’s cruel. See the linesman with his flag up and celebration is cut short. You’re still dancing and capering about before VAR is sgnalled.
  22. See big Greig on the pitch? If I were a wee winger I still wouldn’t fancy trying to get past him.
