Depending on who wants the top spot for the group the most it'll be more or less played like a friendly.

No he's not at the world cup its Ousmane Dembele of Barcelona who is with the French squad not the one currently plying his trade in the Eastend of Glasgow.

Welcome to the site mate. A buddy of mine whom I played a niche online sci-fi game with was also an USAF stationed in Okinawa. We also do a podcast every week when the season is in effect where we talk about current games and developments. So you can also keep up to date with what fans are saying as well as informations.

Clearing the whole stinking lot of them out of there will need some serious pest control outfit to do the job. Hopefully Mr King will have an arsenal of powder he's been keeping dry.

Jeezo these 'journalists' sure know how to mangle the facts. It is true that he had conducted an 8 month investigation before issuing these charges but that was on another matter that they found was entirely baseless. They then decided to try another approach with these two charges. It might not seem like a huge alteration but it is an alteration of the facts as they stand and also colours the readers perspective into the new charges veracity. It must be true they investigated it for 8 months before they charged them!

The Summer 2018 Transfer Window Rumours and Deals
Big Jaws replied to der Berliner's topic in Rangers Chat
RANGERS can today confirm that 20-year-old Ovie Ejaria has joined the club on a season-long loan deal from Liverpool subject to international clearance. The versatile midfielder, who can also play in attack, joined the Reds in the summer of 2014 after spending the previous nine years with Arsenal. A player with power, pace and composure on the ball, London-born Ejaria made his first-team debut for Liverpool on 20 September 2016, replacing Roberto Firmino in a 3-0 League Cup win over Derby County. Two months later Jurgen Klopp handed the talented youngster his Premier League bow when he went on for Philippe Coutinho during a 6-1 win over Watford at Anfield. After making eight appearances for Liverpool in 2016/17, five starts, Ejaria joined Sunderland on the final day of the January transfer window in 2018 and during his five months with the Black Cats he gained more top-team experience, making 11 appearances in the Championship and scoring his first senior goal in a 3-0 win over Wolves on May 6. Despite Sunderland’s relegation to League One, Ejaria continued to impress Aidy Boothroyd and the England Under-21 head coach selected him for this summer’s Toulon Tournament before he had to withdraw from the squad due to injury. Ejaria was also part of the England squad which won the FIFA Under-20 World Cup in South Korea in 2017. https://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/gers-confirm-ejaria-loan/ -
As the thread titles suggest Scotland were beaten 1-0 at altitude in Mexico tonight. From my perspective we were extremely lucky to finish the game at 1-0 as Mexico opened us up time and time again and if not for some poor finishing and a little bad luck, on their part, the score could have been at least 3 or 4. The Mexicans also had a goal chalked off for offside. I couldn't see anything wrong with it and for me the various replays showed it should have stood. We created very little, were over run in midfield and for my money the only player who had a decent game for us was Shinnie at least up until about the 70-80th min where the conditions began to take their toll.

I'm confused as to why MacLennan is described as a Non Executive Director (NED) of INM by the governing bodies as that is a completely inaccurate representation of him and his role within that company or the close ties to which he would be working with the Celtic shareholders under the spotlight. On the one hand, at best, it highlights a glaring incompetence on the part of the governing bodies. On the other it suggests an obfuscation or cover up of pertinent information and a lack of detail divulged to members before appointing him which in and of itself absolutely demands investigation and transparency.

Scotland U21 v England U21 Semi Final Toulon Tournament
Big Jaws replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
I know he occasionally played in red normally yellow with Scotland I haven't found anything on the internet that has him in green with the national squad. However I thought I had seen him at Hampden in green at least twice around the 72-74 seasons during international tournament qualification matches. As I said I may well be mistaken as I know he played in green with Leeds occasionally red. -
Firstly it doesn't matter what the amount of the share holding is. It's the fact that there is a connection at all that creates the conflict of interest. Secondly he's not a NED he's the chairman of INM succeeding Leslie Buckley . Finally the last quote relates to the body text of an article full of conjecture and supposition the very same of which they accuse Mr King of. There is very clearly a lack of analysis with regards to the information it has presented. In fact the article presents no case against anything Mr King has said, and further, it in fact supports Mr Kings assertion that there is a conflict of interest. Its not only full of holes as an argument... its absolute bollox! EDIT: Since the LSE removed the article in their news section and I cant be arsed searching the details I'll just use these two articles from the Morningstar and iii (Independent Investor) March 7th 2018 to provide a source for the claim that MacLennan is the chairman of INM. http://www.morningstar.co.uk/uk/news/AN_1520440397754379600/independent-news--media-appoints-murdoch-maclennan-as-chairman.aspx http://www.iii.co.uk/alliance-news/1520440397754379600-3/independent-news-media-appoints-murdoch-maclennan-as-chairman

Lee Wallace and Kenny Miller both fined for bust up with Murty
Big Jaws replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
Normally in situations where a player/s has been fined or suspended the media just leave it at that as its an internal club matter. Nice of them to inform/canvas us for an appeal in this matter. -

Did Dave Harvey not play in green occasionally for Scotland @pete ? Of course I could be mistaken as I know he definitely did for Leeds. -
The Summer 2018 Transfer Window Rumours and Deals
Big Jaws replied to der Berliner's topic in Rangers Chat
He's not a bad young player. Getting into the first team should always be a contest for me. Like Gerrard I'd rather see them fight for their place moving those in front of them out of the way and once they have the jersey, keep them out. So what constitutes not enough games could well be an issue if they bring him and if he's got to play X number of games. -
Rangers charged by SFA over 2011/12 UEFA licence issue
Big Jaws replied to der Berliner's topic in Rangers Chat
I said it because the normally fractured Rangers support all seem to be singing from the same hymn sheet on this one Gonzo. You know as well as I do that when we are in agreement nothing is beyond us. As far as I'm concerned the Rangers support is a sleeping tiger when it comes to actions. Just ask Ashley how that worked out for him? -
Did someone, sorry can't remember who, not post on these forums a few weeks ago that the same 7-8 managers had been floating around the top of the Championship and lower EPL clubs being recycled over and over again for the last couple of years?

Thats cause Frankie takes a week to say anything mate. I was rippin it in that post, as I am with the Frankie comment, Pete and to be honest there really isn't enough material to put a bloopers reel together. :O -
Rangers charged by SFA over 2011/12 UEFA licence issue
Big Jaws replied to der Berliner's topic in Rangers Chat
Enough is enough! This combined with the BBC report today when an even more high profile case is beginning have, at least judging by the reactions of Rangers supporters across social media, resulted in a swelling indignation. We've taken our punishments the witch hunt needs to end. Theres not one comment I've seen that hasn't been of the... 'Fuck Scottish football and fuck the SFA!' -

I think that may have been David Frazer that said that. As to the rest of your post I don't think Gerrard will be that rigid. I think he'll use whatever formation and tactics suit against the opposition the team face. -
podcast thread (image) Aberdeen, Hibs and Atrocious Referees
Big Jaws replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
I mean the date is set so theres not much we can do about that... it is what it is. Theres also a lot of 'if', 'ands' and 'buts' to be addressed before the draw is even made. If we base it on the current team then I wouldn't fancy our chances up against many of those sides. The current team is bi-polar at times fantastic and great to watch and at others horrendously inefficient and shipping goals. You just dont know what Rangers team you're going to see from one minute to the next even in a single game. If Steve G and McAllister can iron out some of those kinks by moving on and/or bring through some of those we already have then we could stand a chance of getting through a couple of prelim rounds but I still wouldn't see us progressing to the group stages. For me they need to replace Bates an Martin with two pacey CH's with a bit of quality about them football wise. They also need to strengthen the midfield as many of the chances against us this season were from playing through our midfield. I like players like Holt and Windass dont get me wrong but they are far too lightweight for me. -

Its still a competitive match/competition a full month before the SPFL season begins that I'd rather not have to do. It would be a bit of a mistake to treat it as a friendly. Also the Betfred cup ties that other Scottish teams will be competing in starts in the same week. @JFK-1 -

Big Jaws replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
Its gone from a spark of an idea to being a real thing. I'd like to congratulate all the guys who've contributed to the pod and made it what it is. Frankie and Officer Crabtree... err I mean Pete have been instrumental in getting it off the ground with their energy and drive not to mention sacrificing their own time at the preparation stage on what was really just a pipe dream. The world of the internet is generally not a hospitable place for females so a special mention to @plgsarmy for sticking her head above the parapet and not only taking on the internet but also the extremely toxic Scottish football crowd too. Oh and by the way@pete I have the evidence and I'm building a dossier of Pete'isms its just a mater of time before I release it to the public, shots have been fired. -
He said more than that @ian1964. He said he'd been fit since Feb and had been working hard to try and get into the team. That makes sense to me because when Docherty did his first presser he said that when he went into his first training session he said he got clattered by Rossiter in a welcome to Rangers type tackle. Bare in mind that Docherty signed for us at the tail end of Jan... the 25th to be exact and as far as Rossiter is concerned lads that aren't fit don't train with the first team. So who knows what was going on there?
