5 - 2.

I feel it. 

Jings.

Listened to the bbc radio commentary for ten minutes before halftime while finishing a garden task and had to endure the exultant delirium of the wee grúacach that is Liam McLeod. Tempted to switch back on to hear how he coping.

They’ll be spreading the Sliperene on the streets.

Overlooking Barisic.

Saving him for the final.

Well done to get it back but don’t lose it again you fools.

Tonight should have been a championship celebration or at worst the victory clinching match.

I’m going to pretend it is. C’MON GERS, Or in light of the selection, should that be C’mon the two men. Butland and Dionande. Can they do it?

Save Jack for the Final. Bring him on 3-0 up, half hour to go.

Tame. Here’s the real thing.

The Cup Final could be his Fergie Salvation Day.

Not bad if you leave out the blue measles.

Butland - sell  etc  etc

Agree with every bit of that. If pushed to find a difference, give Hagi another go and sell Cantwell.

Right enough. I should have said two more years.

I still think we will be sitting in two weeks moaning about the same darn things. It feels like groundhog day

Two weeks I can cope with so long as it’s not two years.

Not arguing those points - but he's the best manager we've had since coming back to the top division. 

SG is contender for best manager since Walter but let’s see how Clement does after a couple of seasons. Remember SG got sacked by the Villa. How’s he doing in Saudi?

Maybe if the board had backed him after 55 we might have defeated Malmo, but we'll never know. When Gerrard left we were top of the league.

His team had the lead in the second leg at home against ten men. His team blew it.

He had one exceptional season when celtic were utter dross managed by Lennon.

Aside from this, we threw it all away at Ross County and vs Dundee. A dead man on a blind horse can see that while creating dozens of chances in nearly every game, we don't have enough players to make them count.

Say no more.

 Stats XGs go for nothing when we field a bunch of second raters who have no heart and a manager who looks incapable of changing our fortunes I dont think we have a lot of money in the cash tin so the future is looking rather grim 

I agree with except that Clement deserves another go.

Stats may be interesting but the fact is, for a time in midwinter the team were playing in the league better football than in previous seasons. Then as the High Statmaster himself said above Sima the Scorer got injured.

I'm much more comfortable about the future under Clement than I ever was with Beale, though. That's just me, though

You’re not walking alone on this one.

Relieved that a thrashing was avoided. That shows how bad this team is. For the greater part of my following life I was furious, not relieved, when the team dropped points at parkhead or anywhere else.

I don’t demand that the Board bring in Laudrups and Gascoignes, just some players who will be efficient and who will fight the jersey. I think Clement could do something with players like that.

Today’s game at Goodison will probably be the last league match at the grand old ground .

Shame.

The elven features a Rangers player, four workmen, decent enough and six who are a bit flakey though a couple are capable of genius one match in ten.

Inspiring. We’re going to win five nothing. Cement them, Rangers.

Stein and O’Neil both did it in one.

2-1 Thistle. Raith next. If they win they’ll be too knackered to beat St County in the final.

That defence will be overrun. Much better to pick - ah, well, I see what you mean. There’s nobody else, is there?
