  1. Advice is worthless! A wise man doesn't need it and a fool doesn't heed it.
  2. It was always said in the old days that if Jock Stein could choose between a catholic and a protestant he would choose the protestant because he knew Rangers wouldn't sign the catholic. I have totally no idea the truth in that but it is obviously a mute point these day's.
  3. To be honest Scott Brown was said to have a Rangers tattoo and gave them not too bad a service.

    Any spares ?

    Sorry Craig I never knew you were back or I would have suggested it. As I said I was across late. I only even got on the train I got by being a bendy toy to get the train door shut. Nobody could get in at Partick or Govan. The early kick-off makes it difficult to have a beer otherwise I would have been up to where Frankie goes.

    Cheers FS thanks again. Yesterday was fantastic. Sorry I was a bit late. I misjudged how much time I had and how busy the subway would be,it was pandamonium.
  6. This was the worst after an airplane crash.
  7. I will put my hands in the air and say I never see the Nosu Render.
  8. It is the first time I have heard of Francis Urquhart.
  9. The Record also covered it.
  10. Take it to CAS. Accept nothing from this mob.
  11. I had the misfortune of watching a stream with Celtic tv. All they seem to go on about is how Celtic should have had fouls and how the referee got things wrong.
  12. I have sent a complaint to channel 4. Hello, Thank you for your email to Channel 4's Viewer Enquiries.

  13. After that statement I hope it is true.
  14. I can't believe after that tweet this guy can hold his job.
  15. press the > to get the full list of tweets.
  16. I must admit I missed the very beginning and hadn't heard who was commentating and thought that sounds like Thomson but he is far to much for Hibs. Later he was pretty even though. Craigen is bokeworthy. Every foul for Hibs was 50-50 and every foul rangers commited was a clear foul.
  17. That is crap Kamberi threw his arm back hitting Goldson in the face.
  18. I also thought Coulibaly got a good part of his game back tonight.
  19. Yes Candeias was very poor tonight. I agree with Craig we should have had a stonewall penalty and Porteous should have had red for that tackle. I defence for that Scott Brown should have seen red on Saturday when he took the Hibs player out the game.
  20. Totally agree I was screaming at him for that.
  21. I thought you had a man love with Kevin as well.
  22. On Wednesday we travel to Easter Road to play to play Hibernian. Or should that be Christmas road at this time of the year? I hope we get plenty of gifts anyway. Hibs got off to a mixed start to the season that saw them languishing down in the basement regions of the SPFL. From tanking Hamilton 6-0 on October the sixth to beating Hamilton on December the eighth they could not buy a win for love nor money. Even the bottom strugglers Dundee and St Mirren managed to hold them to a draw. Then on Sunday when Brendon Rogers brought his green and grey hoops over to the Auld Reekie they some how dug out a performance that sent Brendon's Rogered troopers back to Glasgow with their tail between their legs. Hibs were electric to be honest. They played a high energy quick pressing game that had the mighty Sellick short-circuiting all over the grid. The big question for Neil Lennon on Wednesday is that is this new found green energy sustainable to try the same tactics for two high voltage games in a row or will the Hibee's batteries be running on empty for the visit of Rangers. Rangers form of late has also been like walking with lead boots on. In the past few weeks we dropped two points to a bottom of the league Dundee team who had ten men for a large part of the game.We have some wonderful passages of football but when we get into the final third of the field we have been missing that cutting edge. Most teams having a packed penalty area where you need a killer pass which we have been lacking to make breakthrough. That is mostly caused by fear to take a chance and take an easier option. Poor decision making and sometimes just pure bad luck. One example of poor decision making on Sunday was Eros Grezda getting the ball about seven yards out just to the left of the goal. He had pulled the defenders away from lafferty who stood as free as a bird in the middle of the goal. Instead of a right footed pass to Lafferty he pulled the ball to his left foot and shot aimlessly into the side net where that corner of the goal was well guarded by the keeper and defenders. Hibs weak point is is in defence so I may be be inclined to go for a 4-4-2 with Kyle Lafferty and Alfredo Morelos up front. I know this hasn't been a great success in the past but if Hibs keep the same tactics as with Celtic and press the midfield high up then we may have to go for a longer game to force them onto the back foot. We all know that Ambrose is a walking time-bomb and he was accompanied by the nineteen year old Ryan Porteous who had a good game against Celtic but keeping a lackadaisical Édouard at bay is a different kettle of fish than a bustling Lafferty and ever working Alfredo Morelos. I think the back four is now starting to be the fast formation of Tavernier, McAuley Goldson, Barasic. I would the go for a midfield of Candeias, Jack\McCrorie, Arfield and Grezda with Lafferty and Morelos up front. That would make the team: Mcgregor Tavernier McAuley Goldson Barasic Jack Candeias Arfield Grezda Morelos Lafferty One thing we need to watch is the Hibs striker Florian Kamberi as he has really impressed me when I have seen him. He also scored a cracker of a goal against Celtic on Sunday. I have also chosen Jack over McCrorie as I think Jack is a little bit more flexible in managing to break forward. C'mon the Gers!
