She'll be too knackered to hit you. No sign of the sprog yet?

Aye, that story was just the press trying to drum up stories coz there was no WC games on that day.

I'm prepared to wipe the slate clean for all the players that are at Ibrox. At the end of the day we've seen players flourish under different management, Ricksen being one player who's best 2 seasons were under Mcleish where he played mostly midfield. Having said that, I wouldn't be sad to see Namouchi leave although I think theres enough there to warrant a 2nd chance.

Gus Mcpherson's not doing too well either on the Saints return to the SPL.

Dharasoo is only paper speculation for now. To say he's only after players he's worked with before isn't true. To the best of my knowledge he hasn't worked with Svennson, Sionko, Furman, the 2 French boys or Letizi.

I'd imaging that Colshy is having a fit because the new kit is being modelled by a ginger...

5 stars crest says all we need to know...

how about just 'gersnet'...

I'm not convinced by it either but do think it'll grow on me as well (not literally tho)

Interesting stuff Frankie. I think Murray will struggle to let go. As much as he apparently wants to move on, methinks he loves being involved in all the hype and attention.

I think home advantage for the Germans is strong. They're building up good momentum although Argentina will be tough. If they beat Argentina I cant see anyone stopping them...

Riquelme was probably the difference between the sides over the 2 legs - he makes them tick and if I remember it was he who set up their equaliser...

It's actually on teamtalk http://www.teamtalk.com/football/story/0,16368,1873_1302865,00.html

The piece I read on this says that it was Bombers decision and that he was definitely not sacked. I got the link through newsnow....

Care to elaborate?

I think we'll need to be patient on this. Players will be reluctant to move as the chances of getting the same salary elsewhere is low. Therefore they will be looking for a pay off to move on. The best option from the clubs point of view is that another club makes an offer for these players. However, given that everyone knows that if they wait a couple of weeks then Rangers will pay the player off and they can get him for free, I would suggest that we are unlikely to get many bids for those players that are surplus to requirements. From the players point of view, they will want to get settled and begin preparing mentally as well as physically for the new season and wont be able to do both until they know where they'll be playing, so it's a minefield of uncertainty I'm sure will continue right up until the transfer window closes.

Interesting. Seem to remember N'Diaye being a decent player from World Cup 2002.

Colshy's missing his marbles methinks.

He was born 16th March 1989. If Sven plays him on Saturday then he'll be 17y 106d (if my dodgy maths is correct) Whiteside was 17y and 42d so the answer to my own question is.....no

Would Walcott take that accolade if Sven brings him on?

Anyone bored of this yet?
