While I am not as fanatical about Scotland as I used to be they will always be my countries national team and I won't let them change that. Lets also be honest, between 2012 until now we didn't really have a player who deserved to be called up. You can argue Lee Wallace but even that is a weak argument.

Or to be so far ahead by Christmas it won't matter who they bring in.

MISSING OUT Filip Helander and Greg Docherty dropped from Rangers’ Europa League squad Aidan Scott 19 Aug 2019, 13:33 Updated: 19 Aug 2019, 13:34 FILIP HELANDER and Greg Docherty have been dropped from Rangers' Europa League squad. The Swedish defender, who joined the Light Blues from Bologna in a £3million deal, scored on his debut against East Fife. 2 Filip Helander celebrates after scoring for RangersCredit: Getty Images - Getty But there is no room for him in the side that will take on Legia Warsaw in the first leg of their Europa League play-off. Docherty, who featured against East Fife, will also miss out on Thursday evening's clash. The duo have been replaced in the squad by new signings Andy King and Brandon Barker. King joined the club on loan from Leicester City last week, while Barker penned a three-year deal after leaving Manchester City. 2 Greg Docherty has been dropped from the Europa League squadCredit: Willie Vass - The Sun Rangers are just two games away from reaching the Europa League group stage for the second successive season. They have already overcome St Joseph's, Progres Niederkorn and Midtjylland to reach the play-off. But the Light Blues will face a tougher test against a Legia side that have yet to concede in the Europa League qualifiers this season. Meanwhile, the Polish club's fans have promised that even though their wives and children "are crying", they'll all be coming to Glasgow. https://www.thescottishsun.co.uk/sport/football/4621419/filip-helander-greg-docherty-rangers-europa-league/

A bit of a wishwash but I was writing between the chores on my wife's list.

I've got 37 degrees.

We're skint we need the money. Their donation will keep us going until 55 comes along. Coming to watch a world record holder has a price. Simple as that!

Jesus the guy is 5 minutes in the door and just hung up his jacket. At least give him a chance to get warmed up.

If anyone thinks the climb in the clubdeck is bad they should try the upper regions of the Dortmund stadium. You nearly need an oxygen mask.

She doesn't believe in plucking her eyebrows.

We have played them twice in cups and the time under White we lost both games and he was sacked the next day.

I doubt it will be a straight 25 mill. It probably will be appearance bonded. something like 15 mill. 50 games 10mill \ 100 games 10mill

Sorry mate in professional football you just don't have time to take in all that is around you and organise things before you make a move. Some of these guys run 100mtrs in 12 seconds so they cover 6 to 10 meters in seconds. That is why they train every day so that these things become an automation. For what it is worth I played a reasonable level of amateur football myself for more than 40 years many as defender in all positions and many as the old fashioned sweeper so I have a fair idea how to defend and organise a defence.

Yes stop the quadruple treble.

I agree with DMAA about his risk assessment and that is what should have urged Goldson to go to the player in front as he was the biggest risk at that moment.

Does anyone know where the two pager is with Aribo and Barker ticked off?

I can only say FF as I don't look in others but Moonlighter posts everything there as well.

The biggest risk in this situation is the man with the ball and what he can do with it. If you can stop the cross they can have ten players in there. I don't think it is only me you are debating with, I think most agree Katic has to step out to cut off the route to goal

That was posted before with a second page where Brandon Barker was quoted as a target. If genuine we have two of their targets

I don't want to take anything away from Arfield but if I was the Midtjylland manager I would have been furious at the feeble attempt of the first 2 players. The slide in was brilliant. I don't get your waiting 2 seconds for Goldson to see what Katic is doing. Goldson has a perfect view right along the line and can see Katic, the attacker and the player with the ball, This is near the beginning of the move the player with the ball advanced another 3 yards before crossing. Katic was obviously trying to get as near as possible to narrow the angle of the cross and cut off the route to goal. Goldson had his few seconds but decided to stick with his own player until it was too late.

Isn't it great we are discussing football matters and not off field matters.

I agree to a a point with the flanagan ball but he could have taken another touch and pulled the player away from Jones and I think that is what Jones was expecting. One thing I will say though is that Jones made totally no attempt to get back and track. As I said in another thread a leak is not always where the drip is.

Even when they were talking about Rangers the discussion kept going back to Aberdeen and what was happening there.

I would be quite happy if he could master one.
