I think you'd have to clear up the recent mystery fortnight double disappearance from the forum of Bill and Gonzo first...or you might be getting into politically correct difficulties... ....

You gotta laugh at this debate,...the new Sofia Coppolla? Comes down to Dirty Old Men being Dirty Old Men. Nowt wrong with that, most of us are.

The Spring & Summer 2019 Transfer Rumours Thread

You can only hide behind mitigating factors for so long and he crossed that line with his the sending off at Parkhead. -
Leave Robbo alone, he brings a 'Strong & Stable' quality to the table !!!

I'm looking at bet365 and both teams are 8/1 to score a penalty in the match. So wherever turf accountant Compo is getting those odds from is being miserly. The difference wrt penalties @bet365 is in the odds to miss a penalty,... we are 20/1 and they are slightly shorter at 18/!. This difference is down to stats or to put it another way, Tav and his excellent record. The B365 odds for there to be a penalty in the match are 5/2. For a red card to be shown it's 2/1, which is very short (but not as short as Compo's bookie). In your 'normal match' it'll range from 4/1 to 5/1.

Where in Scotland is Ufa ? -
If interesting means that she includes decent looking burdz, porno editing skills with the ice cream licks (knows her audience) and content linked to Rangers, then perhaps

The Spring & Summer 2019 Transfer Rumours Thread

The manager has to deal with reality, he doesn't post on a Rangers forum where perception varies along with buts and what if's. In the aftermath of the AM sending off in Ufa, I posted at the very end of the summer transfer window that SG had a decision to make regards Morelos. His decision was to back the player and any whispers of late August bids came to nought. Over the season, despite mounting frustration, SG continued to back his player but I think the Parkhead sending off was one too many for the manager and we've reached a grey zone point where the unconditional backing has been removed. It's now a matter of sort it out or you are of little use. Beyond Morelos, the sending off of McGregor hasn't helped the Colombian. It put's more pressure on SG to get a grip on the disciplinnary issue as a whole. No-one knows what'll happen next season if Alfredo stays but I reckon it's safe to say he'll have more competition for a starting place than the first half of this season and if he doesn't sort out his discipline, he'll probably be on the bench more than he has been accustomed to. On the other hand, if he were to sort it out, he may score 40 goals. The uncertainty would have me accepting a relatively decent bid this summer but I'm a messageboard poster and not SG. -

Forget the gutter press, this is now about the working relationship between the manager and player. The manager won't keep putting up with Morelos if he keeps doing stupid things that damage the team. -

We won't get close to 20M for Morelos this summer. By extending his contract, we put ourselves in a better negotiating position and opened up more the possibility of keeping him for next season. However, since then, the discipline issue has become more acute and I think the manager is one or two similar type sendings off from saying 'no more'. IMO it's now best for all concerned that he moves as early as possible this summer and unfortunately that would probably cost us somewhat re. transfer fee..... But if he stays and things go sour, it could end up costing us more. Some will say it could go the other way and it's possible but I don't think Scotland (certain things about it) and Alfredo are suited. -

Debatable if Hately deserves to be in that video in the first place but his jacket certainly shouldn't

That goal in Barcelona or the header at Easter Road in 1975... If you were around and aware at the time and I know quite a few on here were.............Which was more important for you ?

Morelos has on occasion been the one to blame and not the officals. However, Clancy (ref this w/e) is one referee who I thought looked as though he had premeditated his game in relation to Alfredo. Specifically, when it came to booking him early on for a perceived dive in the Scottiush Cup game in Aberdeen and in the replay, not giving a penalty when Considine fouled him, amongst others. I'd agree that it's in our best interests to play Defoe....First off, he has earned the start. Second, Morelos looked off the pace last weekend and that would only increase the chance of frustration and red mist. Then you have to think what another red card would mean in relation to the value of Morelos. The last red was a turning point for many opinions on the Colombian, another and SG is almost forced to get rid and in those circumstances, I doubt the fee would reach eight figures.

I agree with you Bill ! Ask yourself why this has developed in the way it has and what it relates to what has happened within the business culture, over the same time period.

Some would say that it's silly that European competitions include teams from outwith Europe. That wouldn't include the money men from UEFA. Sport and real competition are way down the list of priorities and that is behind why decisions that are being made threaten to cut off the potential for us (Rangers) to make decent European revenue that would allow us to remain competitive at a reasonable level.

A wee add-on to the above post that didn't occur to me the other day. It didn't occur because of the lack of coverage or in other words, the 'ignore tactic' tends to work. It was the media reaction to what Derek McInnes said about sectarian chanting aimed towards him from the Celtic support. Reaction may not be a good choice of word, granted. Mr.BioMechanic has been big on Strict Liability on certain occasions Sportsound made it their main mission after what Steve Clarke said but as 26th pointed out very recently, they aren't so keen to cover it now. But thinking of PQ (specifically Sportsound Monday programme) and Editorial Consistency, the almost blanket coverage to ZILCH, takes some front !

Compo, what was the bet ?

Graeme Shinnie signs pre-contract with Derby County

It's good because I think he'll be badly missed by Aberdeen. There was a case for him but on reflection, I'd prefer we go with what we already have, Greg Docherty. -
5.40am UK and nearly 10 million views of that utube highlights video yells a story. Well done to Klopp and his players. Perhaps the night when English club football took over from what has been a club scene dominated by Spanish clubs.

This weekend requires players who are committed to the cause. -
I think we can take it as a given that Barasic has got the ok from SG&Co for next season. Being on the bench and this article are both aimed to say exactly that. We really need to get ability that is already within the squad and being paid for out there on the pitch maximising performance levels. A fit and committed Barasic would offer a great deal and if Tav was to leave, the Croat has the tools to make up some of the lost creativity from the flanks.
