Pardew's favourite to replace him. I'm not really sure why they're so intent on filling the role with mediocre English managers who've never won anything. They're hardly going to get England challenging for major tournaments again.
They spent a lot of money and tried the foreign manager. It didn't work. What they need to recognise is that hundreds of millions of pounds pouring into a league where the main aim is to simply remain in that top league one position above the relegation spot while spending over the odds to import foreign players does nothing for the national team.
The result is any English player who gains a national cap sees his value triple straight away.
Much like the manks they have an over-inflated value of their own worth. They will continue to get through to major competitions but will always fail when meeting a team of true professionals.
Their home sides are managed by foreigners. Big Sam was their last hope. Look to multi millions being spent on another foreigner taking charge.

I'm told there were debates on tv before the match questioning why Rangers and Aberdeen hate each other.
I don't know about you guys but I don't "hate" Aberdeen. I've no time for them and would rather see them lose a game but that's mainly down to the sad and pathetic way their fans, ex players and officials seem to hate Rangers.
I'd rather treat them as inconsequential. A team who had a short run of success away back in the 80's.

Just announced on BT Sport - he has resigned.

Wright has a book to sell so much like Barton will be filling it with half truths and downright lies. He had absolutely no effect on our club, or indeed any other Scottish side during his short spell in Glasgow. He got chased out by that mob in the east end because he was picking up a fortune despite being garbage.

I've been away since Saturday morning working to do a mate a favour so didn't see or hear the match. I'm debating with myself whether to bother searching for the highlights.

I'd think nobody here knows what happened during the incident and too much is being made of it. If the female concerned is alleging assault and someone or something corroborates her then the police have no choice but to charge Miller and report him to the fiscal. The fiscal then has to decide whether to take him to court. At court the evidence is heard and a verdict reached. As far as I'm aware, being charged and being convicted are two separate things.

I've no time for Sutton. But DJ deserves all he gets. For years he was there as the jovial, non controvertial Rangers fan who's only purpose was to sit there while being constantly mocked by manks. He also didn't make any attempt to correct many of the lies spouted on air. It's too late now to be trying to grow a spine.

Disagree with you. A reasonably large part of our supporters group is female so they deserve representation. It does not have to be exactly 2 that was just giving a number. I think a balanced team is far more important than just picking the candidates with the highest pay group.
I never mentioned Blacks or Catholics by the way and it is not a brush you can tar me with. I have too many friends and relations who are Catholic to give a damn about that.
I'm afraaid I have to slightly disagree with you Pete. "Fair representation and positive discrimination" has led to just about every sector of British society going to hell in a handcart. I strongly object to someone being placed into a position of influence just so they can fill a representative quota. The best person should get the job - if that leads to 10 men or 10 women, 10 gays or 10 martians then so be it.

As a sidenote to the subject, did anyone else complete the online survey from Rangers yesterday ? I got through the "who is good/bad for football" bits but got bogged down and eventually bored with the "companies you associate with Rangers/football" stuff. Sad to report I gave up before the end.
In my opinion the whole exercise was a failure. Find out what the fans think and want. Sponsors will only ever come down to who is offering the most money and the fans opinion will get ignored anyhow.

BT Sport a couple of minutes ago - "This is a vital game for both clubs."
The crowd looks to be about 3000.

Braindead will get removed and the latest Rangers-hating, obsessed sellik fan will fall off the assembly line, straight into a job in the Scottish media.

Quite a few shares have been shifted in the past week.

Is this of any importance ? More to the point for a nosy parker, do we know who's involved ?

Sometimes it seems like a group of A*****ES gathering round a table and being asked what S**te can we write next to appease the yahoos.
King selling out to Brian Kennedy, the stand roof costs escalating, court missives from Ashley served on Rangers, Warburton threatening to quit because he got no money, Barton was not a Warburton signing, etc, etc, etc - just the latest garbage doing the rounds from those with "inside knowledge".
If you believe what the obsessed are shovelling this week it would seem that our board have learned nothing from the colander we had before.

Thompson solicitors are a bunch of ambulance chasers who make a living out of taking hopeless cases to court. I'd suspect they charged a couple of hundred to provide the quotes.
The article itself is worthless garbage. Still, hardly surprising given all that's going on right now.

They went & got Howard Webb's opinion & he said it was a straight red.
Maybe it was a straight red but did they go on as much on Sunday for the Sviatchenko tackle which was a straight red ?
Or am I just paranoid?
No, You're not paranoid Rab.
That's just how they play the game these days.

You have to wonder if Chris Sutton ever get over Helicopter Sunday and the 6-1 thrashing of Dunfermline?,the man is a fucking idiot,why do we have to get these clowns commentating on Rangers games?
He had the neck to take a pop at a former team mate for not throwing the ball into the net so that sellik would have beat Rangers on goal difference.
That act alone gives the sum total of that scumbags character.
Sutton is a no-mark. A player who when his side were losing took to deliberately playing basketball to get himself sent off. A guy who made a living out of going down for soft free kicks and penalties. He now gets gigs on tv by creating soundbites which feed the paranoia of those who very rarely see the inside of a football stadium but carry an obsession of Rangers. He's good for BT Sport - but only because his co-pundits are so piss poor.

Well done Rangers. I came home from holiday on Wednesday having picked up what seems to be a viral infection and hadn't left my house until today. Thanks to my hip flask I lasted until just after half time before coming home. The game is being copied and I'm looking forward to seeing later.
Nice to hear that twisted bastard Sutton suffering. I only wonder when he'll manage to vomit up a bit of praise for our performances.

Taking a step to the side for a moment - I was away with a few of my family for a few days there and something caught my attention - what kind of halfwit walks around Disneyland Paris dressed in a sellik top ? Not just him, but the wife and weans too ?

Click on "settings" (very top right of the page) and then scroll down to "edit email and password" from the options on the left.
Thank you my friend.

Why change to a personal password? Keep the one you were allocated and just use that boabie.
Think yourself lucky...I had to create a new password and wasn't allocated a new one.
It's a bit difficult to remember a selection of random letters and numbers mate.

After spending a few days in Paris I logged on to find I'd to change my password as the old one was 180 days old. I've copied and pasted the new allocated jumble of letters & numbers but being a bit of a Luddite don't know how to change to a personal one.
I'd be obliged for some help guys as I've several issues with this old laptop as it is.
Thanks.

The celtic brand is nothing without Rangers. A stadium less than half full with whole sections closed and covered in big flags proves that fact.

To digress for a second - I see the manks are saying there's a risk Griffiths may not play through an injury.
Since the mid 60's before every single important match their "star" player might not make it. Why do they persist with this garbage ?

Allardyce resigns

He's already under investigation for a transfer when he was at West Ham.
Looks like 8 others will be sweating right now ----
Manager 1
Ex-Premier League manager allegedly liked “bungs” in cash or deposited in a Swiss bank account. Pagliara said: “I can call [X] now and all it is with [X] is 'How much, Pino? And will it be the same Swiss bank account?’”
Manager 2
Ex-top flight manager has had “more backhanders than Wimbledon”. Pagliara said: “This is what I hate... the guy that used to need the money but he’s had so much now that all of a sudden he’s whiter than white.”
Manager 3
After managing several British clubs, he was allegedly fired by one for having “his fingers in the till”. Pagliara said he would get involved if “you understand that when we do deals I have to have a carrier bag with some cash”.
Manager 4
Pagliara said of this boss with Premier League experience: “We know him very, very well. We do a transfer, [X] has winked at us and said 'Yeah, I want the player. Is there a little coffee for me, Pino?’ Yeah, course there is.”
Manager 5
Ex-Premier League manager who, said Pagliara, would call him and say “here’s the number”, and give him details of a Swiss account. He said: “It was always numbered accounts.”
Manager 6
A former player who now manages, he allegedly likes extra money to secure deals because he is not on a big salary at his club. Pagliara said: “[X] takes a few [inaudible] because he’s not being paid big money.”
Manager 7
Ex-Premier League manager is another “we can put on the payroll”. If a player was transferred for £10m, “we’ll turn round to [X] and say, listen, if you take this player we’ll look after you. OK? OK, boom.”
Manager 8
Agent Dax Price said this long-serving manager would pick three trusted players and tell them he was paying them an extra £8,000 per month, on condition that they paid him £4,000 per month each.
