2-1 Itten

Where there is someone with money to burn and a legal axe to grind, you'll find a lawyer willing to send an invoice for their time.

There are FIFA/UEFA rules against clubs taking their local FA's to court. Hence why we had to accept the 5-way agreement stitch up even though it wasn't legal.

They should get some Hamburg tops for sale on our website/shop.

There seems to be a bigger vacuum within the corridors of Hampden now that Whyte is no longer in post. If thats even possible? If I'm reading correctly, they now have a panel of referees review incidents and cite players, rather than, as I understood it, the Compliance Officer contacting the referee to ask whether they saw the incident clearly and acting only when its clear there were elements of an incident that were missed.

Same as the Alfredo incident - and as the Manager says, the referee was 5 yards away, sees the incident and gives a yellow card. I agree it could have been a red and we would have had no real complaint, but that was the on field decision and we can't be re-reffing games all the time. Its beyond a joke

Hamilton 0 - Rangers 5 FGS Kent

Agreed. I don't care much for the way he sets up his teams, but I would give credit to McInnes in the way he has refreshed his squads over the years. Not that its won him anything.

Rangers 3 - 0 St Johnstone FGS Goldson

Hibs 0 - 3 Rangers FGS Morelos

Quietly going about our business, while our "rival" is in the throes of an implosion... You love to see it.

Rangers 3 - 1 Ross County FGS Morelos

Its not a requirement, no. But its possible. It will be interesting to see if the club come out and explain the appointment.

I think its potentially both what yourself and Bill have suggested and/or strengthening the team given the range of strategic projects on the go. That includes the possibility of Champions League qualification and the step change in funding that this would provide if we can manage it.

Which they've known about for several weeks now. I get that there may be complications in that they may need to move a few fixtures around to make it work, but there is no impact on supporters regarding travel so really they have no excuses for wasting this weekend in my view.

In fairness to the lad, he has improved each year of his career so far. He will soon outgrow Aberdeen if that continues. For me the issue is not dissimilar to that of McCrorie. He's a good battling midfielder but is he good enough on the ball to fit in with the way Gerrard plays?

You're a conspiracy theory nutjob! Similar thoughts had crossed my own mind, in fairness. The only counter-theory that I came up with that made any sense was that there might have been a conscious decision by the SPFL to minimise the number of games in January to allow the players a little more recovery time after a hectic December, given there is no winter break this year. Even if that was the case, it would be easy to explain. But also, surely such niceties are dispensed with given the ongoing pandemic and the priority should be playing the games within a reasonable timeframe.

Their PR must be raging. They were working so hard in the background to shift the focus away from Celtic's ineptitude and hubris, and Lenny has brought it all back like a lightning rod.

Whilst we are on the subject to weird coincidences, Celtic have three games in hand yet jetted off to Dubai when they could have scheduled at least one of them. And they also have a free weekend coming up. I'm sure they wont whine incessantly about the inevitable fixture pile up towards the end of the season.

The obligatory youtube compilation! My thought watching that was he was like Jamie Murphy v2.0.

Davis for me. They deliberately congested the middle of the park to force us wide and Davis got us into good initial positions in the channel particularly, we just didn't find the right pass or get crosses in with enough quality regularly enough.

Motherwell 0 - 2 Rangers Morelos FGS

McInnes confirming that Rangers approached Aberdeen after the game on Sunday about signing Wright on a pre-contract basis. Also mentioned that there are board level discussions ongoing. My guess is that Wright will be on his way to use before long

I guess this is as clear a case of "reap what you sow" as you'll find in Scottish fitba

Timplosion imminent...
