I wish they wouldn't call him "Coisty"
Can you imagine "Struthie"? Get you a life ban.

Speirs on Radio S on Saturday kept repeating the new mantra that Rangers' PR is aggressive , inept and tabloid style. Is he jealous of JT for getting the job?
What's more we've to stop blaming Dundee Utd. fans for the sins and ommissions of Whyte. Did anyone do that?

We keep hoping for this but it rarely happens.
Barce, Manchester United, Real never quite dish out the hammerings expected from them.

Just wait 'til the Liverpool Echo comes for him.

Never thought I would ever say this but here goes: "Good on you, Coun'eee"

Best non-goal. Super holds that record as well as all his others.
At Pittodrie pre-Souness. Somebody lumps the ball out of defence towards Ally positioned with his back to the goal he's attacking, half way in from the left touchline about 25 + yards from goal, closely superintended by Willie Miller. Ally chests it down, instant foot control and a turn easing Miller out of the way and a right foot screamer high into the Aberdeen net with Leighton rooted on the goal line.
What a goal! But no - away out on the right half way to Peterhead, Durrant or Cooper is standing offside under the old rules. Goal chalked off.
Miller was a top defender. That sort of thing didn't often happen to him.

Do Eck and Billy Davis not share the same distinction of getting the hoof from Forest?
I would like an early successor to Super but not either of those two.

We're toffs, mate. Only top quality silverware matters.

"to be fair i think he will have many offers from teams in leagues well above us"
Probably celtic.

John Greig was a legend as a player. No greater Ranger. But he couldn't manage.
Might have succeeded if he had started low and worked his way up. Ferguson and O'Neil did that. Even Billy McNeil had some success and he started at Clyde.
Lesson there for Super.

It is indeed 29th June.
'Gers will be having a special one later.

Sorry. Thought it was June.

"Looking forward to Armed Forces Day already"
I think it's during the close season.

Reserving judgement is perfectly normal.
Looks as though Mackenzie was over-matched.

Ah wuzz errr an' aw.
Di Stefano, Puskas and Gento. What a privilege!
Rangers were only Caldow, McMillan and maybe Millar short of the best XI I ever saw in the blue.

Fair play to Leggo. He's challenged Mansi to sue him if he's wrong.

I didn't know you did jokes, gs.
Wait a minute. It's not a joke, is it?

Forgot about about JF. Another good example.
Baxter was an experienced player with Raith so he like Laudrup don't fit theproposition though I'm pretty sure Baxter's Kirkcaldy debut would have filled the streets with jivers.

"Perry, Cribari, Hegarty, Black, Faure and Agryiou "
Only Perry and Hegarty are rookies but you would never have said from their first kicks of the ball that they were the finished article.

You could be right, dB. Let's hope so.

"laudrup was great from the off"
He sure was but he was a Danish Internationalist just out of Serie A. I'm thinking of first season ex juniors or schoolboys who do the business right off and carry on without dips in form. You don't get them nowadays. Even wonderbhoys donnelly, mcgeady and maloney didn't maintain their standards all the time. As for Fleck ....

Gordon looked a nifty player for a while but he and Weiss were experienced players.
The players I named were all new to top league football. Caldow and Greig in particular looked like the finished article from the first kick of the ball.

What players have run onto the pitch for their debuts and been instant successes? Exclude experienced players transferred in.
Eric Caldow - immaculate from day 1.
John Greig- future captain written all over him.
Willie Henderson - instant dazzle.
Alec Scott - immediate scorer from the wing, early hat tricks.
Mentioning early hat tricks I saw the debuts at Easter Road - (don't ask) - 0f both Pat Stanton (utter class) and Colin Stein (archetypal centre forward). How
I hoped they'd wear the blue one day.
Young starters nowadays need a good bit of time before achieving consistency. Durrant and Derek Ferguson came on reasonably quickly but they started in a poor team. DJ did not bad.
Any others?

I thought Wilson was the best young centre half prospect since Ronnie McKinnon.
Might he have a personal preference for celtic?
