JFK-1

I think a judgement is being handed down sometime in September.

There are no great teams in Scotland right now. All Scottish teams are mediocre in comparison to many other European leagues. But in Scotland Rangers are no more mediocre than any of the rest are and in fact considerably less so than most. The performance at Kilmarnock was mediocre in comparison to what I believe the team is capable of and i'm remaining confident performances will greatly improve along with consistency.

PNE fans have said from the start that he always does that. But remember this. It's not cheating. That has been verified since Griffith's did the same thing. I wont be complaining if Garner gets a penalty for that at the midden.

Couldn't agree more. That wasn't a tackle at all it was a deliberate attempted assault in which Bartons experience to some extent saved him as he jumped at just the right moment to get his weight off the ground.

One positive point I suppose is that Barton isn't crippled. Looking at that tackle over again in slow motion is horrific. Barton got lucky. It was only millimetres away from being his last ever game and probably a permanent limp at best.

Nothing is going in our favour here and it's going to be hard to get back into this.

The Killie pitch eats another of our players.

Apparently Wilson injured in the warm up Hill starting.

Foderingham, Tavernier, Wilson, Kiernan, Wallace, Rossiter, Barton, Forrester, McKay, Miller, Dodoo. Subs: Gilks, O'Halloran, Hodson, Hill, Kranjcar, Halliday, Garner

And again making claims that it's artificially created is irrelevant to the fact that THIS is the bottom line to borrow a phrase you used yourself. Even if it were artificially created so what? The entire middle east and Africa too were created in the same way yet by sheer chance the only place they go batshit insane about it for 70 years is over the park sized patch of land occupied by the Jews??? And you think that's remotely rational while taking the side the terrorists who perpetuate it and who freely elected a group who want to genocide not just Israelis but Jews worldwide? What would you think of me if I wanted to genocide the Palestinians or supported a group who had a charter openly stating it? Turn that around replace Palestinians with Jews and get an idea what i'm beginning to be forced to think of you in this situation. See what you do is veer all over the place making disjointed nonsensical comments about it many of which are irrelevant and many entirely erroneous while ignoring all facts presented to you as if they had never been presented at all and it appears to be the case that all you know about it is the pointless babble which "many on the left" parrot which has no basis in reality. "many on the left" includes those idiots at parkhead last week large numbers oif who as was pointed out by soime couldn't even place the middle east far less Israel on a map. Turn that around too. Yet YOU want to pin the blame on the Israelis and excuse the Nazis who want to genocide them not for being Israelis but for being Jews. You're saying absolutely nothing which is of any worth about this while displaying an ignorance about it that is so startling you really shouldn't be commenting on it at all and a perfect example of that is this. You're obviously entirely unaware of why that is or you wouldn't have mentioned it at all and yet still try to talk about this as if you know anything at all about it. A very brief example of how ignorant that refugee claim is. And once you know the cause of it I fully hope you and "many on the left" go after the culprits. THIS is how they originally became refugees. And I hate to keep talking about ignorance but I can see no other way. You're actually being ignorant enough on this to talk about a mere 700,000 people who Arabs have not resettled in seventy years with lands larger than all of Europe not including Russia to do so in while Europe resettled tens of millions of refugees inside a few years after WW2 and still apparently you don't get what's going on here though to be true you obviously didn't even know that either. They have never been resettled because Arabs want to keep them there as an excuse to continue hating Jews. No more no less. Stop filling your head with what "many on the left" say and research it yourself and believe me that will involve a lot more than a youtube clip or a wiki article. I have been reading about it for over 20 years.

Send me an email saying that broonaldo is robbing charity boxes. I will find two anonymous punters who weren't there to corroborate it then inform the press.

I like to see people still having enough confidence in the team to predict 3 and 4-0 I feel myself that such a result has to be in the pipeline but it's hard to say when they're going to fully click and hand out a real hammering but it's coming. Who knows when. Next two weeks would be nice.

Probably advised to at least try to be more realistic when you're bullshitting in future. Why in the world would anyone think it remotely credible that Rangers fans had the slightest motive to prevent cops from reaching that stadium to get at the rampaging hibz hordes.

Yes very good preview indeed. He should be made to write them all.

Skybet offering 7/1 for them to lose all group matches while paddy power are offering 6/1 for them to qualify from the group while the rest to qualify are Barcelona 1/40 then City 4/9 and Monchengladbach 15/8 All of which suggests group whipping boys. Boohoo. What do you think Rod?

Ever wondered if at least one of the reasons Rossiter hit it off so quickly is that he was playing through the Summer with England under 19's so he came to us already fully match fit and probably pretty much as fit as he can realistically be.

I agree he got a bad one but i'm guessing that surely such bad ones don't happen week in week out on such pitches because if they did then surely they wouldn't be allowed. I have seen managers who decline to use some of their older players on such pitches because they feel there is a lot less give which is less forgiving on joints. And incidentally I was just thinking. Barton seems to fall down a lot. He might find that an uncomfortable experience if he falls down on plastic especially so if he gets a bit of skid into the fall.

Surely it wont happen again and at least we have a couple of weeks to get over any minor injuries it may inflict.

Well i'm one of those who is in his 50's but still has a full head of thick hair with still no grey in it plus always taken for a lot younger and still more or less the same weight I was back in the day. All is not quite the same as it was on the inside such as joints etc but I can still pretty much chase them in more or less the same manner I once did if the wife would let me.

I feel that on several fronts this game is an absolute must win and ideally be won convincingly. We must win it because title challengers are expected to win at places like Killie and we absolutely must win it to go to the midden top of the league and to maintain morale since this is the last competitive match before heading to the aforesaid midden. I hope Garner plays a part and I hope he hits the ground running with a goal on his debut to get his confidence soaring before he too heads to the midden for the very first time.

Anyone think Souness is saying something here that may be relevant to us? The video isn't displaying because the link is set to start at a point just before he begins to comment on what i'm speaking of so you need to click on the link. https://youtu.be/bYkxXQxFVZM?t=5m43s

Well no doubt many of a certain age would give everything they had if the transformation were permanent but he specifies a 90 minute transformation. If I were back in Scotland for that 90 minutes and given that I was never a professional footballer I might spend my 90 battering the shit out of every mindless NED i could locate.

Sure they have a chance, they even have a chance of topping the group. A 66/1 chance. Barcelona 2/5 Man City 3/1 Borussia Moenchengladbach 20/1 Celtic 66/1

To clarify that he isn't saying that he is going to play again he's talking about what he would give to get another chance to in a 26 year old body. Video interview. http://bbc.in/2aQgAid

While taking money from their lying arses would be a nice bonus it's not the priority. If we have incontrovertible evidence that the raving of this harridan is total bullshit we should be going all out to force a retraction and an apology at a minimum. Further if there is any evidence that she knowingly lied then we should be going all out to illustrate her lack of credibility and potential bigotry rendering anything she ever has to say on Rangers in the future instantly questionable while recycling the point that she is a known and proven liar.
