Fair do's. I'm sure most folks here, myself included, have no objection to your posting here. A wee bit of banter never hurt anyone and I have not found anything objectionable in anything you have so far posted.

Ah, it must have been the stench of hypocrisy then... :fish:
-
Also, my granny could have swung a better right hook than Gary Caldwell
-
Exactly, it is ludicrous. There's always the risk of nutjob elements of all sets of fans doing stupid things. I await a dismissive response from Celtic at some point.
-
Ok then, so what are Celtic likely to do? It's not an official demand for the stadium to be closed because it's from a supporters body. They have no obligation to take this seriously and are likely to come out with something dismissing the notion as laughable. It's definitely leaving us open to tit-for-tat retaliation and I think it would have been far better to allow the SPL/SFA to handle the fall out of the incident. That way, the club can make their views known privately and whatever sanctions can be imposed as seen fit. Now, if the SFA/SPL chicken out of taking action or sanctions, that would be different.
-
Perhaps. As I said, I can see the tactics that may be in play but there is no way that Rangers would demand Celtic Park be closed -certainly not publicly. If Rangers did do this then the outcome would be damaged relations between the two clubs which would be bad for everyone.
-
Fair do's. I kind of understand that this may be driven by ulterior motives i.e. to raise awareness surrounding the lack of action from Celtic surrounding sectarianism, fan behaviour etc; but it doesn't sit well with me. I think there must be better ways of doing this...

I'm annoyed at the spin the Record has put on this. Perhaps I have misunderstood and given the way it has been reported it's perhaps easy to see why. Am I right in saying that the RST want to have some dialogue with Celtic with regards to crowd safety given recent incidents? At no point was any RST spokesperson quoted as saying that the game would be played behind closed doors - to say that would not show the RST in the best light in my view.
-
I knew this and it's good development for Ally. Without doubt he is being groomed to takeover in the next few seasons.
-
Craig makes some good arguments. Perhaps the crucial one for me is the fact that if we finish the game without losing then the league is virtually in the bag. It's perhaps a cynical view to have and I have no doubt Cuellar regrets doing it but had we got the draw then instead of having this argument it would be about whether Carlos cheated or not.
-
I have been once before and was too pished to notice if there were plumes of anything.
-
We've been grinding out results and scoring late goals too so I dont have a problem with them doing it, however jammy they are. What I am annoyed at is the amount of space afforded to Nakamura - especially for the first goal and the shot which Cuellar saved. He was cutting inside a lot more and getting involved so perhaps Strachan deserves a bit of credit for adjusting his tactics to get the best out of him. We had him in our pocket for most of the game - it was just dissapointing that a couple of lapses in concentration have cost us.
-
Yes, it was a gamble that nearly paid off. It would have been save of the season had we held out for the draw.
-
This just makes it interesting. Altogether now... "We shall not, we shall not be moved!"

Putting aside the content of the article, I am envious of the speed in response that the Celtic heirachy of shown. That said, it's typical of the 'offended minority' attitude so often seen from the Mhanks. The nightly frothing-at-the-mouth sessions, or football phone-ins as they are otherwise known, have been highly entertaining of late. Strachan must stay!!!
-
I'll go for 65.
-
Aye but they struggled against the Sheep at Shittodrie so that gives us a chance regardless how many they put past a Dortmund team which is in decline.
-
You'll have a better chance of getting a ticket then!
-
I think we will win by two goals.
-
Are you gonna write it or shag it? :fish:
-
I agree with the sentiment so long as we dont become complacent. For the first 15 to 20 minutes against Sporting, we went on to the park and started knocking the ball around with the confidence of a team who believed they were good enough, and deserved to be, in the quarter finals. If we can continue that into the semis then I think we have a chance and I agree with Gribz - I fancy us to give anyone a game at Ibrox.

To the tune of 'Cant take my eyes of you...' Oh Carlos Cuellar, You are the love of my life, Oh Carlos Cuellar, I'd let you shag my wife, Oh Carlos Cuellar, I want curly hair too...

Sporting Lisbon 0 (0) : 2 (2) Rangers - Player Ratings and MoM Poll
stewarty replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
Davis and Cuellar I thought were excellent. I would go for Davis by a baw hair due to the exceptional energy levels he showed to set up the first goal which ultimately won us the game. A special mention for Dailly as well as he was quietly effective despite it only being his 2nd (I think) appearance at centre half for us and the only mistake I can recall from him was being beaten to a header which flashed past the post. -
I said to my father in law before the game started that I could see Fergie getting a booking so no surprises from me to see it happen. I would prefer him to miss the first leg of the semi rather than the 2nd leg or the final

Ended up watching the game on STV last night and in fairness, the commentary was far better this week. Perhaps it was because we played so well but would be interesting to hear how the ITV4 coverage was...
