  1. Sunderland, currently 9th in the Championship have sacked Tony Mowbray. 
    He’s been doubtful about the policy of their Director of Football to bring in young players from round the world, develop them and sell at profit. Reported to have warned the Board that they won’t get promotion that way.

    Tabloid suggestions that Beale or Muscat may be his replacement or @SykseyBear favourite, Alex Rae. Shows the kind of drivel tabloids come up with.

    No doubt Mowbray will take it on the chin.

  2. The Haaland/Grealish incident was inexplicable. Having said that I don’t think Grealish was going to score. Two defenders were arrowing in on him and they would have got him before he got his shot away. Maybe the ref thought the same and that City would make a better opportunity from the free kick.

    That may be the case but actual drummers can be very useful.  Unfortunately, the lads with drums at Ibrox aren't actual drummers - they're just people hitting something and ruining some good songs.

    How true.

    They sort of remind me how English fans have horribly bastardised Hello Hello, showing a complete lack of understanding of why it's such a good chant (hint: it's the rubato).

    “Hello, Hello” is a song but the English have converted it to chant. They yap it out far too fast with a bizarre change of key from major to minor.

     

    It must be their C of E upbringing.

  4. I struggle to think of any player who could play as a lone striker. I know the mantra about midfielders running up for the knock-downs and lay-offs but no use if they’re starting from too far back and much can go wrong on the journey up to the front.

     

    Hateley, Miller, Prso and the like had no trouble winning the ball but it’s much easier and more profitable if the second man is up there with them. 
     

    Don’t tell me playing two strikers will weaken the midfield and put pressure on the defence. Not if the midfielders and defenders are competent it won’t.

    What's yours Scott?

    Sterling and Ylmaz are little better than the incumbents but I’d give that team a go but no Cantwell. Lundstrum in between Rice and McKinnon.

    I’d be writing off this season, though, hoping for reward next year.

  6. I doubt anyone will be able to add anything to that. I hope Clement reads it.

     

    Look at the video of the players entering Ibrox last night. That didn’t look like a Rangers team. Last in was the captain looking terrified. A Rangers captain should look like this:
