They did indeed but L'pool could have been two up early on. Great stuff to watch. Arsenal and Rangers used to be great buddies in the old days.

Brand and Millar?

dB - I respect your knowledge, experience and commitment to Rangers but for once you are utterly wrong. I know a bit about Peterhead, a worthy small town club just like my own first team (a bit better, if I'm honest) but any side purporting to be the Rangers should have slaughtered them yesterday, today or tomorrow. That first day performance set the standard for the following seasons. The way the Jambolians have been about their business is the way Rangers should have done it. Competence with an occasional bit of style is what I expected. The football management failed completely.

Looks like him. The tackler is Willie Telfer. Imagine the forward's relief at getting past Willie then his despair at finding Bobby Shearer waiting for him.

On reflection I see Colin Stein as a cutlass or a sabre rather than a knife.
-
I don't think Stein/Millar is a true comparison. They were different types of cf. Either would do fine for me.

On the thread about Vuckic Bearman posted this: "Mykhaylychenko was a fine addition to the squad at the time but no way can I compare him to Vuckvic? Comparisons: McCall - MacDonald. MacDonald. Stein - Millar. Millar. Cooper - Wilson. Cooper. Greig - McCulloch. Greig. Gascoigne - Baxter. Baxter. Ritchie - Goram. Goram. 'Bud' Johnston - no comparison Greig - Gough, Greig. McCoist, same as Bud. Albertz - McMillan, Albertz. Laudrup - Wilson, Laudrup. Shearer - Johansen, Johansen. Shaw - no comparison Anyone else prepared to make comparisons be my guest." My reply: "Very interesting comparisons. Shaw/Shearer shurely? Cooper/McLean maybe. Bud/Davy and Davy's the man. McCoist/Forrest?" Barca 72's comment: "I agree that Davy was a great wee player, plenty of guts and guile. Wee Bud on the other hand was the best we've ever had at hanging a cross ball, and more foreby." Any other thoughts?

Very interesting comparisons. Shaw/Shearer shurely? Cooper/McLean maybe. Bud/Davy and Davy's the man. McCoist/Forrest? This really needs a new thread.

It's in the Judge's discretion. A half decent beak would say ok, here's your order but you can whistle for your costs. The best advice for MD is to say I'll withdraw my request and you withdraw your Court application and cheerio.
-
Costs are incidental to the order sought. MD would only be liable in the event of him unsuccessfully opposing the application.

RSA Annual 1954/55 - Fantastic words from Bill Struth & Billy McCandless
Scott7 replied to a topic in Rangers Chat
I don't like to contradict someone who wore the colours with distinction but the answer to the perennial question is on Mr Struth's blazer badge. Blow it up and the word is there. -
RSA Annual 1954/55 - Fantastic words from Bill Struth & Billy McCandless

An old guy told me many years ago that older guys than him had a song with the words "two Irish backs you can' t get past". He couldn't remember anything else or the tune. -
King goes to court of sessions to become director
Scott7 replied to colinstein's topic in Rangers Chat
Think of all the tims busy writing in their objections. Assuming the learned Judge ignores them and grants the Petition, it would be hard for the SFA to refuse King's application to them. -
I've just had a horrible thought. Poyet's available. "Who's actually done well as a manager there?" - (Oleg) Peter Reid did not too badly. Steve Bruce was Steve Bruce ie mediocre. Surprised O'Neil didn't do better. And who but Sunderland would hire di Canio, see the light, bin him (so far, so good) then take on Poyet? Calamity followed by disaster. I thought the Stadium name was daft until I found out it wasn't a straight copy of Benfica but a reference to a Durham miner's lamp.

Manager at Sunderland until the end of the season. Good luck to him - he's sixty years too late. They were a Bank of England club then.

AS, JMcK and rpb have presented coherent arguements from opposite sides and I can be persuaded by either. But itcomes downto this: CG is entitled to his point of view; he is entitled to express his point of view; he is entitled to express it in the way that he did but having elected to do so in that way his suitability for office in a great institution is brought into question. Specifically, I don't think a Director of a company with a high public profile should conduct himself as CG did. A suitable apology, ie an explanation rather than an expression of sorrow, will suffice and an undertaking not to repeat. The question for the BBC hack is not what he knew but when did he know it? The timing reeks of suspicion.

What we must understand of course is that the Premier League is the only thing that matters. Any tournament that Chelsea get beaten in is of no importance. I believe SBS to be indisposed this morning so I've taken it upon myself to post this on his behalf.

John Bennett and Chris Graham join plc board
Scott7 replied to Little General's topic in Rangers Chat
This is the most depressing thread. -
Read dB again.

During niar Rangers spent umpteen times more than Aberdeen or Motherwell but for a couple of seasons each gave us a run for our money.

Scotland and Hearts football legend Dave Mackay dies aged 80
Scott7 replied to ian1964's topic in General Football Chat
On helluva good player. Hard as nails, never dirty. Ian Black and Scott Brown? Don't make me laugh. Plus McKay could actually play football. He'd be priceless nowadays. -
Three Bears call for Barry Leach to be sacked immediately
Scott7 replied to Steve1872's topic in Rangers Chat
The "happy time" years of ITs are long gone unless it's a question of discrimination. If a new board goes through the correct procedures they've probably got him bang to rights. What worries me is a clause in his contract that gives him a bag of gold on termination for whatever reason. -
The Seville avenger must have been Harry Davis, surely. Pretty decent right-half but world class enforcer.
