buster.

A wee bit down from the EPL but today is the last day of the regular EFL season in the bottom two tiers (play offs to come). Notable for pending exits to non league obscurity. - The worst home top in English football is sure to make the drop, Yeovil. - The oldest professional association football club in the world, Notts County (founded in 1862) look likely to go as well. Apparently Juventus based their colours on the original magpies.

Forgot to mention that McNulty is another who frequently leaves his foot in.

Did Messi copy the Kai Kennedy free-kick method ? The reserve Souttar and Berra central defence looked truly awful at the first two goals.

That particular case against Katic was more based on an automatic media/punditry induced response on the back of us getting a decent win whilst on a good run. It had no base in reality, if someone stands on your foot when you are moving, you fall down and if someone puts is arm/elbow in your face, not once but twice, even in TV slow motion, you tend to fall down. Rangers can't be allowed to win without a BUT.... Even Claire Whyte knew she'd be onto plums if she went for this one. There was a recent Scott Brown dive that was as blatant as anything I've ever seen, it was so bad it looked like footage of some comedy sketch but it didn't manage to survive the editorial cut for Sportsound. I don't know the rules regards a C.O. citacion in this type of inciident but it wasn't sanctioned in the game.

It'll be Craig Thomson for the OF match.

If you have a minute......a wee edit for that post, text just prior to graphic of our results, insert...in the top tier, ...by registering a 5th successive league win in the top tier, for the first time since 2011. Thanks ------------------------------------------ Whilst I'm on,...for the memories This is what consistency looked like Sat 30/07/11 PRE St. Johnstone 0 - 2 Rangers Sat 13/08/11 PRE Inverness CT 0 - 2 Rangers View events More info Sun 21/08/11 PRE Motherwell 0 - 3 Rangers View events More info Sun 28/08/11 PRE Rangers 2 - 0 Aberdeen View events More info Sat 10/09/11 PRE Dundee United 0 - 1 Rangers View events More info Sun 18/09/11 PRE Rangers 4 - 2 Celtic View events More info Sat 24/09/11 PRE Dunfermline At… 0 - 4 Rangers View events More info Tue 27/09/11 PRE Rangers 2 - 0 Kilmarnock View events More info Sat 01/10/11 PRE Rangers 1 - 0 Hibernian It includes a 0-3 away win at Motherwell and a 2-0 home win against Aberdeen....snap It also includes a 1-0 win against Hibs...???

Didn't know about that and yes, if he gets called up and does well you may well have a point. My guess, is that Queiroz won't be experimenting as per the Asian tour and unless some currently higher up the pecking order are unavailable, he'll struggle to get gametime.

Emery's Arsenal will go to Valencia after scoring three in London. Emery was in charge of Valencia when we were playing them on CL duty, unfortunately we couldn't stop the getting the three goals. It was a long time ago (2010) but some things don't change, Lafferty was brought on as an 83rd minute substitute for Edu, just as nearly nine years later, he was brought on as an 83rd minute substitute for Defoe at Tynecastle a couple of weeks ago. For the record, McGregor and Davis started both games as well.

Well done and the UEFA Youth League is a real tangible benefit.

I'd buy it only if Martin Bain has joined them. If we were to get a bid of 15M, we'd take it right away IMO.

No-one is going to start bidding at nearly 20M.

Surely it's the one area where most of the players can and will think for themselves, or at least within their own prejudices.

I'd prefer to take that challenge head on and look to set-up the final day for what could be termed the truly wonderful unthinkable.

Second time I've recently heard SG essentially challenging the board to come up with adequate financial support for the remit.

Thank's for that ! I've not been able to see it where I am. I can't see Cosgrove and Cowan leaving the building anytime soon. Even when Cos heads to the grave, I'd wager he'll have previously found a technology to have his own prior recordings used when trigger words come up on the show. I thought it was getting tired and repetitive a while back but instead of changing presenters or format, PQ added an extra post-match programme for the pair, increasing their Saturday airtime to 3 and half hours, 300 minutes. That's comparable to an Opeus Dei tool for self-punishment #cilice

Strange Stat In the 7 games against Hibs in the top flight since both were promoted from the Championship, there has never been a home win. Time for that to change !

I thought he was fairly straight in that respect but for me the premise I'm pointing towards is that a young journalist making their way in the modern world will tend to take the path of least resistance when it comes to their output (Newspapers used to be mainly about news and there was an opinion column for opinion. Now, too many outlets are all about opinion/slant and broadcast/print very little objective news). In today's Scotland, that means Rangers are an easy target and at PQ, it means if you want to get on, then, they are the target. I thought Ewan Cameron's observation about Tom English and some of the subsequent twitter conversation to be interesting and worth considering. That PQ tend to very often cover football with a political campaign like angle when others look to cover mainly the sport.

I read on one of 26th's posts that Craig Fowler now does some work for PQ. The angle his most recent article at the Scotsman takes would tend to suggest he needs some brownie points with the PQ heid yins after no Celtic players were up for the YPOTY award. It's titled... How Motherwell and future Rangers winger Jake Hastie grabbed a YPOTY nomination and it goes on to question why Hastie was nominated. It questions the voting process, how seriously players take it when carrying out their research before voting and states foreign players get a raw deal because they aren't considered young (inference is think Ajer) !!!....I kid you not Full article @ https://www.scotsman.com/sport/football/rangers/how-motherwell-and-future-rangers-winger-jake-hastie-grabbed-a-ypoty-nomination-1-4919749

I think that might be telling this weekend. I'll almost be surprised if Liverpool get the three points... Newcastle were 8/1 for the win and have already shortened slightly.

Back in January, the 6 month loan was ideal. It didn't really work out but there didn't seem to be any obligations beyond that. Once the season was essentially over, he started to perform to a better level coinciding with a change in shape that seems to suit the team as a whole. Is that worth a contract ? ... for me, won't know until after the Celtic game. Good business for the club for it to be only a 1 year deal opposed to 2, IMO.

I thought that line was an advert for hair products for a second. #HastySolutions

Worth clicking on the long conversation that follows this tweet.

Goalkeepers losing it in finals or star strikers hitting the post when easier to score, there is something predictable about Liverpool stalling at this time of year. Messi eventually took the tie away from Liverpool but the Scousers have themselves to blame for not having one or two away goals. The history of Barcelona in the early 20th century will have two very different chapters, the Glory Years of Messi and the Relative Famine Post Messi. All that said, it would be good to see Liverpool get an early goal and some momentum in the second leg and breath some life into the tie.

Thought it was very Barrie McKay semi-final goal, only better.
