He’s a bit of a Pep lookalike. However, the great man himself would struggle with the current playing staff.

No interest in the world cup at all.

Not quite. Just minimal. If Germany play Argentina or France play Spain I’ll watch it. That’s on past reputation. I’ve no idea if they are any good.

I never think of 1957. I’m not that senile.

I was referencing the 1969 Scottish Cup final

It was indeed the SC final. Why did I suddenly called it a League Cup Final? Onset of senility at a disturbingly young age I fear.

Ferguson was a really good centre forward when he played for Dunfermline. I saw him in a match against some team that a year or so later went on to win a trophy abroad somewhere. Ferguson terrorised their defence that day and I was elated when Rangers bought him for £60,000 but overall I was disappointed with him at Ibrox. Colin Stein on the other hand ……

The League Cup defeat wasn’t Ferguson’s fault. You can’t blame your centre forward for a defensive error.

No one really knows because the club keeps it a secret. 

Strategic information of use to the enemy?

Great question

It was indeed a great question which I struggled to answer. You’ve just done it brilliantly. Thanks.

It would almost be worth it to observe the hysterics.

I am concerned people are setting high expectations for a guy thats missed a year of football

That’s why I have hopes, not expectations.

Larsen came back as if he’d never been away. Mols never made it.

What exactly is the Rangers brand?

I’ve been thinking about this. My answer is I don’t know. Sixty years ago the easy answer is Protestantism and Unionism but that’s more to do with the club’s adherents than the club itself. I don’t think any club had a brand other than football with the exception of the two Greens. Perhaps Rangers and Hearts developed brands so as to be in contrast to the two others. I don’t think there is much overt Protestantism nowadays. Unionism flourishes but it’s not sold as a club brand.

Anyone know what the Arsenal brand is?

Otherwise for fans its pay up and shut up. What a terrible way to treat your paying customers. 

Football is a unique business and supporting a football club is a unique state of mind. I have been a Rangers supporter since time immemorial. I don’t know how it came about. The advice of big brother I suspect. Why I took that advice ahead of father (Spider) mother (Hibbee) big sister (Aberdeen) I don’t quite know. I liked the sound of the name and.  I liked the colour blue. I could reel off the Iron Curtain well before I was completely proficient in multiplication tables. And that’s it. I couldn’t change. I’ve never wanted to change even though I admit the many triumphs are always marred by the memory of disasters and strangely, worse, spells of mediocrity and the anticipation that they could all happen again

So there it is. I don’t own the club. I’m not a shareholder. The club owes me nothing. In the days when I attended matches, I paid my gate money and in exchange, got to see a game of football. I very rarely buy merchandise - too tatty mostly and I don’t wear team shirts - but if I were to buy something I would get the use of the article and the club doesn’t have to acknowledge my great generosity. Oh, I can rant and rave with the worst but I know that’s all I can do.
 

Rangers - take them or leave them. I won’t leave them so I just have to take them.

Long for the day when talent like him plays alongside talent like Tillman.

They will need an Ian Ferguson type to play between them.

Every Rangers manager’s position is precarious if the team is not top of the league and out performing the nearest competition. Supporters know that. The Board knows that. It’s useless to make statements about it..

Jimmy O’Rourke, illustrious inside forward with Hibernian has died aged 76. A bit of Bobby Johnstone’s skill and a lot of Eddie Turnbull’s energy he was a cracking player. 100% energy every minute of every game.

As you know, r_s is the master of the slow play so that it takes time for his hand to be revealed, if ever.
 

I assume his position is that a demand being dumb doesn’t mean or indeed imply, that the person making the demand is dumb. It’s a reasonable inference to draw, however, entitling the reader to an explanation why he should not so infer.

Expect the explanation sometime on Friday morning - if ever.

Can’t work up much enthusiasm. England will win easily, as is their right, if you believe the media. Selfishly I’d rather they were put out early on so I don’t have to watch or listen to the cluelessly demented but that’s unfair to English football supporters who go faithfully to their clubs’ matches home and away.

South Americans usually produce some exciting stuff. Are Brazil and Argentina any good? I don’t even know the bookies’ favourites.

Not forgotten. His absence provoked the memory almost every game. Let’s hope recovery-wise he’s Larsen, not Mols.

I would have Gerrard back but only if celtic took lennon back at the same time.

Thank you, neil, for your part in the 55.

I have withdrawn from the CCCS and cancelled the automatic renewal on Mygers.  I won't be at the Leverkusen game or renewing mygers.

I’m not a member of either scheme but If I were, I would withdraw and cancel but if I could, I’d still turn up to cheer the team on.
 

Or more probably moan at them.

Would it be ok if the banner text was “Kill all Rangers Supporters”?

They will have their wallets under their pillows, something which aids restful repose, immeasurably. 

I’ll have to take your word on that, old bean.

That’s quite funny ‘tho I expect the bannermen are deadly serious about it.
