Apologies but I presume Patterson is a young player?

Interesting idea but I wonder how they will accommodate the space around the pitch post construction?  I presume there is a legal requirement for some kind of track/path access surrounding the pitch and Ibrox is already pretty close to the pitch as it is. Closer than that dump across the city for example

Somewhat hyperbolic but if it makes the tims more enraged than they already are, happy days

Coming from a rather warm 31° in Colombia, to a pleasant 22° in Dubai.

Both options beat cold, wet and windy Glasgow hands down

Yeh Maric. Doesn’t sound like anything is happening with him. 

Thanks for keeping me right dude. Don't really read papers so generally only find out about transfers when they happen

Just now, DMAA said:

He’s a playmaker type centre mid

Doh. Is the other Croatian guy a striker?

Guy who claims to be ITK says Lovro Majer isn’t interested in the offers he’s had from Spain and Russia and wants to come to Rangers and will wait until the summer if he has to. Given he’d cost €6m+ I would think if it happens at all it will be in the summer. 

 

No problem whatsoever if this happens. I've always thought the Balkan leagues offer the best value in today's bloated transfer market. Players are generally technically gifted and adapt well to the the Scottish/British game (Prso, Jelavic, Barasic and Katic). 

Maybe a sign that we are laying the foundations for a summer departure for Alfie?

I think there's a thread about Scum FC transfer activity on Kerrydale Street.

Ok don't get your knickers in a twist. Just put the question out there as part of a casual chat.

He'll be 31 this year.

Lennon happened. Sinclair played over 30 matches last season but wanted to leave at the end of the season, Celtic invoked an extension to his contract trying to get a fee for him much to his annoyance. Apparently he has no relationship with Lennon and has wanted to move near Manchester for a while for family reasons. Or so the Tim downstairs told me! 

Aha. Sounds about right tbh. He's not kicked a ball since extending his contract.

52 goals in 12 games? That's nearly 4.5 goals per game. The goals against column isn't too shabby either. 4 conceded. 

As Darth Vader would say..."Impressive...most impressive"

Ok...off to the Tower for me...

Don't care.

I'm not asking you to care tbh. It was just a simple question really.

Nope.

Posted with tongue firmly in cheek tbh...

Joking aside...whit happened with Sinclair? Went from 20 goals a season player to nowhere man. He's only 29/30? Surprised a bigger team in the Championship didn't have a sniff. Or does he come with baggage?

Do they really want to open this particular door? 

I see Scott Sinclair is possibly going to Preston. Worth a punt as an attacking option? ???? Imagine the Timplosion?

I'll guarantee you, you'll never see Messi going that high. That was Katicesque in execution.

Granted but there are countless things that Messi does that Ronaldo can only dream about it

Can the SFA demand anything?

Mohamed Latif played for us in 1935/36.  I didn't have to look that up...honest.

 

 

Funnily enough he also played for Zamalek. An omen?

I watched the occasional Zamalek game when I lived in Cairo in the early 1980's. They used to play at a small stadium on an island in the Nile but I think they have new stadium elsewhere now. I never attended one but I heard the derby games against Al Ahly were a sight to see. Have we ever had an Egyptian player before?

Did the Cairo derby not get so bad that they shipped in Kenny Clark back in the day as a neutral ref? I'm sure wee Willie Collum has also officiated recently? It's apparently bonkers 

Not sure if we've had an Egyptian player? 

Talk of Mostafa Mohamed from Egypt coming on loan? U-23 striker

What a leap. Great height and unbelievable timing. Looks like he's just hanging in the air at one point.

 

 

Equally impressed by the fact that he didn't injure himself coming back down to the ground. 

With regards to Scott Allan...I read a stat somewhere that he he is 28 years old and has less than 100 starting appearances under his belt. That's insane

I saw this yesterday but at the end of the day the narrative by the gutter press, clueless pundits and the crazy tims is already out there and is "set in stone". Let's face it, if Alfie had gone off the pitch smiling with his thumbs up he would still be getting pelters. Shitty papers have to fight against dwindling sales and the only thing they have in their locker is peddling stories from the bottom of the barrel to idiots who essentially still keep them in a job.
