"Jardine coming through the middle - he's a great player, this boy - shoots and it's a goal for Rangers." Not my words but those of David Francey in a radio commentary on Rangers v them very early in his career. The boy was a great player right enough. He became a great man.

Eddie is a Tim who has been to some (but not all) of the classes in an HND course in basic-business-law-for-the absolute- beginner-with-no-hope-of-going-further. I wonder if the lecturer was one James Spence.

Ahwuzzerrr! Saw the ball come back out to Kai. saw his foot go back. Next instant it's in the net! Truth be told we were lucky ovwr the 180 minutes especially the first 90. Thank God for Billy Ritchie. Second only to the Goalie. Old warhorse Jimmy Millar back to where he once belonged at left half. the order of succession after Billy was Martin, Sorensen, Neef. McCloy was next, much mocked for swinging on a crossbar but a better 'keeper than the previous three and generally did pretty well but not as good as Woods or Klos

Brit football star found dead in US
Scott7 replied to BrahimHemdani's topic in General Football Chat
I don't know anything at all about the poor chap except that he wasn't a football star. -
And good old Musselburgh.

" Presumably you do have your tongue firmly in your cheek with this suggestion!" They might give a thought to Mourinho but I reckon it'll be Eck. Van Gaal is probably tearing up his Arsenal application but he hasn't a hope against McLeish.

Fracas follows Hearts' Jamie Hamill goal celebration
Scott7 replied to ian1964's topic in General Football Chat
Should have been a red card. What was Adams doing running out to block him? Yellow for him. Hope County go down. -
McLeish for OT?
-
Ha'way the lads! 'Pool's title now.or maybe City. Chelsea aren't out of it though.

Glenn Gibbons: Rangers fans playing dangerous game
Scott7 replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
"Old club"? Is that "old" as in "venerable" or "old" as in "former"? -
I suppose he'd be alright for us but he didn't get a Goodison invite from Martinez.

dB was good enough to give me some tuition in German on one of our other forums so I assist him here with the great "somesuch" issue. A word it's not but a phrase "some such" it most certainly is. Should be the same as "somehow", "somewhere" or even "nonesuch" but it's not. Just another English language trap for the foreigner. dB avoids most of them. Cuellar was a cut above Bougherra who is several cuts above Moshni. Bit of a downward spiral there.

Can you imagine Sammy Cox or Bobby Shearer or Stuart McCall or any amount of others lucky to wear the blue coming out with the like of that?
-
I fear City have blown it. What happened the last time I thought that? It's either L'pool or Chelsea now. L'pool play the more spectacular football so I hope it's them. Can they carry the burden of my expectation or is the title bound for the Bridge?

"in more ways than one we need a Fergus McCann type at rangers. both to rescue us and to cease the gravy train." - gs. What's the wee guy doing these days? We could be doing with someone not very keen on the celtic-minded. Rescued them from insolvency, built them a new stadium - ok, not the best but better than the old cp - bullied them into an appearance of acknowledging the Ibrox disaster, castigated a certain type of bigot and all in a few years. Walked off with a shilling or two at the end but at least he did a job for his dime and the tims don't like him. Perfect cv!

"do Scotsmen living in Scotland believe that anyone in exile is no longer a Scot/has forfeited their birthright due to living in a different country ...... ?" Nope. You're a Scots South African or a South African Scot. Only the SNP think otherwise. If the McFuhrer wins you'll have to apply for Scottish citizenship - if you still want it by that time.

Manchester City to be made to pay a high price.........
Scott7 replied to ian1964's topic in General Football Chat
I would have thought there might be some anxieties about this at the Bridge, no? -
None of the above. I'd take Danny Wilson.

"Full speed ahead for the mighty ship Rangers." These days are gone now, And in the past, they will remain. I fear. (That song is about as bad as Merlin)

Terry >Kompany. Agreed. But Suarez>>than Terry.

Many red and white scarves as you would expect. One or two MC, well they are the visitors. Oh and a green and white one. Doubt if it was an exiled hi bee. They can't help themselves, can they?
-
Not quite "Mago" enough.

David Silva - El Mago.

Will they be shattering the seats in despair? Steve May the big star. Looks a bit weird but he can play. Tims will want to sign him.

Brahim Hemdani, whom I acknowledge to be a man of wisdom wrote this: "He (Aird) has often reminded me of Alex Scott. Unlike Willie Henderson, Alex Scott didn't beat many opponents but he was a devastatingly effective player." I quite like Aird. He tries and doesn't hide. But Scott he's not. Scott scored three on his debut while still in his teens and a few days later got two against the Gunners in a friendly at Highbury. He was the most direct winger I ever saw. Ian McMillan would take out one defender with the pass, Scott would rocket past the second and deliver the cross or finish it himself. A hundred + goals from the wing. So, yes, I like Aird but he's got a long way to go to stand comparison with Scott.
