  1. There are a lot of European qualifiers being played this week in both competitions. As it stands bet365 makes Rangers THE shortest priced team of them all to win their match at 1/33.
  2. You are right but IMO the team needs a settled central defence when possible. It's not an area that should be tinkered with too much, unlike say the midfield combinations.
  3. May well have been "back-three" ! Edmundson may be considered if better with the ball at his feet.
  4. Interesting to hear SG mention the 3-5-2 yesterday. Very difficult to come up with a line-up given the number of options in the middle. McGregor Katic - Goldson - Helander Tav - Davis - Kamara - Barasic Arfield Defoe - New
  5. Bit of a pre-season feel to the podcast there Good to have them back though and thank's to all involved !
  6. I think that unfair on Durrant. "...the bleedin' obvious..." is a big part of football and no pundit that I have ever known restricts themselves to genuine insight. You can also say that the "...the bleedin' obvious..." is somewhat relative and those watching and listening will be at different stages in their fitbaw education. I agree with Gaffer regards Durrant offering more insight than the average RTV pundit.
  7. Very encouraging so far. Lots of goals...5, 4, 4 None conceded....0, 0, 0 Good football & entertainment No less than six against St.Joesph's though... The above will add thousands onto crowd for Thursday.
  8. I see St.Mirren are 0-3 down at HT to Dunfermline. Good start Jim edit Finished 2-3 Have a look at the other teams in their group of life Albion Rovers, East kilbride and Edinburgh City
  9. How to solve SG headache ? Sell Candeias to Marseille for 25M plus Payet
  10. After seeing him in Gib, I have a feeling in ma water that Jones will do well with us. I'd prefer us not to go for Kent and dedicate funds towards a central forward option.
  11. Barasic, Aribo and Jones on the left hand side (even if not all on the touchline) will be interesting.
  12. I can remember 3 games against Marseille and they all finished level. CL: 2-2 and 1-1 Friendly: 1-1 Anymore ?
  13. Link isn't opening for me. Located it another route and will put up another link to see if it allows direct route https://rfcyouths.wordpress.com/2019/07/12/18s-stroll-past-huddersfield-town/
  14. As per conversation we had on that, priority has to be developing the player for our first team. He has 3 years on his new contract and no time should be wasted. Year 1: First team football, 25 games or so at Championship level. Year 2: Evaluate, possible offer of further extension and inserted into our first team squad (optimistic view) First thing, he has to show he can hold down a first team slot at Ayr, which is more of a challenge than a handful of UCL games.
  15. You don't get journalism from a comic.
  16. A marquee signing at centre forward could be a loan deal or it could be financed from incoming funds from a Morelos transfer.
  17. Embarrassing was going out to them. Talk of revenge is just another lazy and routine narrative in Scottish fitbaw. Not worth getting upset over. We need to try and finish the tie in the first leg so the 2nd leg team can be picked thinking in the opening league game.
  18. As it stands, it would be Defoe....but I don't think we can go into a season depending on a 37 year old and expecting him to play week in week out. I also think it's time to move Morelos on. Excellent player he may be but you can't trust him and I don't think he'd be too happy or effective from the bench. So if we move Alfredo and Lafferty on, we need 2 forwards. One would be THE marquee signing, be suited to the formations SG is going to play and go into my starting XI, the other would be of a different style to Defoe.
  19. McGregor Tav - Goldson - Helander - Barisic Davis - Kamara Ojo - Arfield - Jones New Biggest difeerence is that there are lots of options for different types of games. My XI above would be for a game against Hamilton (A)......Aribo was difficult to leave out. You could probably select 3 or 4 different sides/formations and you'd be confident of them doing a job. Over to SG&Co to make the right calls at the right time.
  20. Results point towards an away trip to Luxembourg 3 days prior to our opening league game. Shouldn't be a disadvantage given Kilmarnock will most probably be playing in Belgrade that same Thursday !!
