  1. Without our black and red socks were are just another team wearing blue with white shorts
  2. On players who improved... Filip Sebo arrived as a truly woeful player and ended up as just garbage. Does that count?
  3. Let's face it, we could count the number of good CL finals in one hand. They are generally very underwhelming. I thought Liverpool showed how much they have progressed last night. It was less heavy metal football, more very good game management IMO. Finals are all about who picks up the trophy at the end of the game. Just a wee quiz question after last night... What do all Liverpool's Champions Cup/League wins have in common? 1977 - Borussia Monchengladbach 1978 - Club Brugge 1981 - Real Madrid 1984 - AS Roma 2005 - Milan 2019 - Tottenham Hotspur
  4. Agree Gonzo. It's Rangers. There is no prefix. Stuff like this annoys me. It's up there with us not wearing our black and red socks or us wearing blue shorts (wtf). While I'm at it, there should never be red in our home shirt. Should always be just be blue with white detailing. Red was first introduced into our home shirt in 1978-79 after over 100 years without it being used #pedanticloyal
  5. It looked like the temperature and a 3 week break put paid to high intensity game.
  6. After what's happened in previous rounds everyone (including me for a while) seems to think Spurs name is on the cup. If Liverpool click, I can genuinely see them battering Spurs tbh. (Much like Chelsea did to Arsenal in the Europa final). Those Liverpool players will really want to make up for last season IMO. I want Liverpool to win mainly for Klopp. He seems a decent guy and it would be criminal for him and his brand if football not to win big honours.
  7. Is Ashley not on the verge of selling to wealthy foreign investors? (Cousins of Man City owners?)
  8. 20 million for Morelos? I'll drive him there myself.
  9. I heard that Law wanted to hammer them to get his revenge for the 9-3 game in 1961
  10. I keep seeing that he has been "offered" the job. Has he accepted yet?
  11. Good luck to them. Would rather St Mirren stay up. United should reap what they have sown for a few years yet
  12. I wish him the best of luck for his future career but it was clear to all and sundry that he was not answer.
  13. Marshall?
  14. Arsenal have apparently handed back some of their 6,000 tickets! Way to go UEFA. A major final with very few fans of the competing clubs present
  15. At this rate I'll be happy if we leave this crap pitch without a serious injury
  16. Regardless of the meaningless nature of the game, it's clear to see that the formation and personel we have adopted over the last bunch of games serves us better than this. Worrel should be nowhere near our team and Alfie has to go if we are to progress IMO. I'm genuinely bored with his antics
  17. The sooner these pitches get banned the better.
  18. Just a different take on Klinsman Jr...he has "profile" of sorts and also is in line to play for the USA. Could be good marketing for the club?
  19. Agreed. You could compile these posts into a single volume/publication and I for one would not hesitate in parting with my cash. Fantastic work 26th. Take several well deserved bows sir
  20. Unbefuckinglievable
  21. Your reasons are valid but are exactly the reasons why I think we will win the league. Whoever they get as a manager will not be Rodgers or anywhere near his level. Their squad needs an overhaul so that requires money and a glut of new players which doesn't guarantee anything. IMO, this much change can go 50/50. I just hope we can capitalise if their manager and new players are struggling. For this time in years, I would say there is more uncertainty over the summer at Parkhead than Ibrox
  22. I may be going out on a limb here but I can genuinely see us not just challenging but actually winning the title strongly next season. Celtic starting the season without Rodgers basically renders them back at square one IMO. Whether it's Lennon or a different manager, they won't have the same impact as Rodgers had on that team. On the other hand, we have team and management that seems to be learning from it's mistakes and with a season under belt and few quality additions we can only go from strength to strength. Our club has a feeling of positivity and momentum whereas the mob across the city have uncertainty and departures to entertain them during the summer. Ok they will go and win a treble treble this season. I care not about that as the architect of that success is nowhere to be seen. A good start is a no brainer next season and we have shown at the tail end of this season, we have the players and tools to beat everyone in this league. Let's not forget, we didn't lose the league due to the head to heads V Celtic. We lost the league due to naivety in winnable games V Aberdeen, Killie, Hibs etc. Looking further ahead, I genuinely hope we can cash in on Morelos. Much of this season was side tracked by the circus that surrounds Alfie and I feel that if he is not there we will be more focused and we will have happy days ahead.
  23. I think if we can get anywhere near 10 million for Morelos it would be great business. We can then use that to try and pick up another striker for 2/3 million. I definitely would look at the Balkan leagues. Their players are not over priced (compared to England 2nd and 3rd tiers) and they generally have a great technical ability. There must be a striker somewhere in Serbia/Croatia who could fill that void? Look at Mitrovic at Fulham. A player in that mould would be great for us. I'm not saying him directly but we need to be looking for the next Mitrovic
  24. I definitely think this was a deliberate tactic from SG. Have their 3 least effective players with more of the ball. It shows that SG is learning and has come on leaps and bounds from the powderpuff performance at CP early in the season.
  25. Wasn't at the game today mate. Just heard about through this thread tbh.
