Is that opinion based on the fact he doesn't vote for the SNP? In all honesty, I don't know how the players have maintained their challenge, so far, in the face of cheating refs.

I don't think we need to go to the lengths of banning people, we just have to be diplomatic in our responses. ...

Maybe experience has shown that some players play better with an 'I'll show you' chip on their shoulder.

I'll guarantee you, you'll never see Messi going that high. That was Katicesque in execution.

I wonder how the FA would react to Huddersfield and Stoke City and Barnsley fans refusing to attend matches with McLean on the team sheet. Really, don't f*ck with patriotism!! It worked for Kaepernick in the States.

If they keep this up, HMRC will end up owing the Oldco ... https://www.bbc.com/news/uk-scotland-50727197 HMRC drops further £5m from Rangers tax claim 8 hours ago HMRC's claim against the company which owned Rangers has fallen again, according to the latest report from liquidators BDO. It shows a drop from an initial estimate of £94m to just over £67m. The previous report highlighted HMRC's decision to drop penalties totalling £24m, relating to the company's use of Employee Benefit Trusts (EBTs). This time there is a drop of £5.2m relating to VAT and PAYE. The final HMRC bill is still being disputed. The bill currently includes a claim of £48m over the use of EBTs, a figure that BDO continues to dispute, with a resolution not expected until next year. The tax claim does not relate to the current Rangers set-up and it is not liable for any of the back-tax claim. The dispute involves the way some players were being paid from 2001 to 2009 by the company that then owned Rangers, and the tax that was not being paid on that income. Money was put into Employee Benefit Trusts (EBTs), located in offshore tax havens. HM Revenue and Customs said the scheme was tax avoidance and hit Rangers with a bill to pay back tens of millions of pounds. Could Rangers have survived? With that bill hanging over the club, it struggled to find a buyer when Sir David Murray put it on the market. Craig Whyte bought the Rangers organisation for £1 in May 2011 and it went into liquidation the following year. BDO, the liquidators of the old company that controlled Ibrox, have continued to tussle with the tax authority about the total bill. In June, it emerged that HMRC had removed a penalty of £24m, after an appeal to the tax authority's Penalty Review Consistency Panel. A report in The Times newspaper last month suggested the bill could be further reduced, as negotiations and legal manoeuvres continue. It said the final EBT-related tax bill could be down to about £20m. The Times reported that former Rangers chairman John McClelland had said that ambiguity over the tax burden repelled genuine investors and paved the way for Rangers' collapse. Mr McClelland said that if a £20m tax bill had been agreed during his tenure it would have been relatively simple for the Ibrox club to find a credible buyer. The latest liquidator's report said the current HMRC claim is £67.5m. That is made up of £48.8m for the EBT claim, as well as other tax claims and VAT, PAYE and National Insurance payments. The BDO report said: "The Joint Liquidators and their tax specialists remain in a dialogue with HMRC with a view to seeking to resolve the remaining issues."

Hollicom now have her on contract !

Yes we would be further ahead. You can always improve performance, strategy, tactics etc. but you can never improve a result in the book. Winners win, losers ... well.

Do you believe him? He is superficially plausible and facetious, especially when his side has won. He's laughing at us which is hammered home by his last word.

I wonder if Hollicom could do a better job of reporting the facts than what is on show in this thread.

Ordinarily I'd agree. However, Arfield is such a dominant figure when he is on his game I think SG is just trying to buy him time from the fans. The pressure to win 55 is intense for everyone, and this just may hopefully keep his head in the game.

Jack in the first half for a few tackles and Morelos in the second for excellent finishing.

That's it then, yellow card for a sneeze and a red card for a cough? Aaaarrrggghhh!

https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/UEFA_Youth_League After a two-year trial period, the UEFA Youth League became a permanent UEFA competition starting from the 2015–16 season, with the tournament expanded from 32 to 64 teams to allow the youth domestic champions of the top 32 associations according to their UEFA country coefficients to also participate. The 32 UEFA Champions League group stage youth teams retain the group stage format, with the group winners advancing to the round of 16 and the runners-up advancing to the play-offs. The 32 youth domestic champions play two rounds of two-legged ties, with the eight winners advancing to the play-offs, where they play a single match at home against the Champions League path runners-up. The round of 16 onwards retain the same format of single-leg ties as before.[5]

https://www.rangersnews.uk/news/ibrox-sources-leicester-fixture-provided-exactly-what-rangers-needed/ ... The source said that while “none of their established stars” featured, Leicester fielded a genuine U23 team, similar to the kind of side they would deploy in Premier League 2 football. It was always unlikely that the Foxes would have their big guns on display, with the vast majority of their first team away on international duty. Yet, this was clearly still a hugely beneficial workout for the Gers squad, against stiff opposition. ...

I have to say that I think this is a rather exuberant proposal from Rod Petrie.

His value just went up a few million more ... Internationals at Hard Rock Stadium 16-11-2019 KO:01:30 REF: J Marrufo Colombia Alfredo Morelos 90+3' 1 - 0 FT HT: 0-0 Peru

It has to start somewhere, why not at the top? His associates could be pried loose in the process.

That Davis goal reminds me of the goal by Pedro Mendez at the piggery when Davis rolled a corner out to Mendez and he shot a beauty by Boruc. Same distance, similar power.
