Rangers always overshoot the LZ.
Over 30...A 2 year deal is fair.
But it will be 4.
To be honest, with the exception of Goldson (was he over 30 at the time?), I'm struggling to think of any over 30s that we've chucked 4 years at?.

Agreed, they are utter shite, I wish we had them next week.

Raskin is definitely a player, but since his injury he's looked ponderous at best. I think he'll benefit from a full pre season, and hopefully the competition he now has will drive him on.

If he was happy to renew for 2 years at 20k a week it’s a no brainer. If he wants 30k a week for 3 years it’s a no thanks.
This.
And there's no big if around Roofe, times up sadly.

I'm not seeing much celebrating about last night's result. Most of us are just pleased the tie is still in the balance and happy to be competing with teams of that standard.
Absolutely, it's nothing like being near to celebrating failure.

Prefer high waisted shorts to necks and arms covered in drawings, holey socks and love heart goal celebrations, any day of the week.
Christ, you'll be wanting to exhume auld Montford anaw! 😆

I think ‘UEFA Cup’ makes more sense and sounds better.
It was indeed a thing.
Back in the day, we had the European cup, for league winners only, UEFA cup was for 2nd, 3rd and maybe 4th IIRC, and Cup Winners Cup was for National cup winners. If UC was brought back, it would be the prime trophy now IMHO.

I have often asked this question. It's not a champion's league.
It's a champion and top contender league.
It has been for 33 years now, if the UEFA cup was brought back, it would be the top competition.

None of his our last two leaders have given us an identity, a style of play or a focus like PC has.
Neither of them improved players, had us looking hungry, no matter who was in the line up.
Neither of them overturned that lot, and made us look genuine favourites.
Midweek we weren't lucky, coming back from a goal down isn't lucky, it's what champions do.

Great article sir.
£200k for the captain has to go down as one of the best buys in our history.

It's fairly simple to my mind. To question, or expect better from referees as a whole is fine, we're paying customers after all. To chase a referee, after the event, to harass him outside of the football realm, to blame failure of our team over a season on someone, well that's your personal choice, and you leave yourself open to criticism in my opinion.
Really there's no answer, no defining line, it's up to you how you carry yourself.
Anyway, I've work to do, enjoy the rest of yer day.

But to be clear and to put a line under this
It'd be the first time you've put a line under something!

If Gonzo was to call someone yahooesque whilst sitting amongst Bears at Ibrox, or an away ground for slating a refs decision or performance, I'd bet he'd get a more robust response 😀
Moaning at a ref during the game is perfectly normal.
It's carrying that on for weeks after the event, looking into said ref to see who his father was, that kind of behaviour that is very, very yahooesque.

I for one hope the Jambos get a couple of yahoo-esque penalties at the weekend. 😉

The money and effort invested in youth players has only one objective - to produce players for the first team squad
Mibbe 20 years ago, nowadays the big teams produce talent to use as makeweights in FFP, to fund buying other players, or to fulfil homegrown requirements. It's a complete racket, just look at how many homegrown players Man U or Chelsea had on the park last night. Liverpool have a decent youth academy, but they also have a team full of injured players, needs must. Chelsea could even buy players that they've sold on back, and still call them homegrown.
Sad state of affairs.

EPL teams youth academies are bound to churn out players, the sheer size of them is incredible, they hoover up everything that is around. IIRC it was Palace that chucked theirs, as Chelsea and Arsenal were taking everything locally.
We shouldn't compare ourselves to the EPL, aspire by all means, but don't compare.

the most successful teams only make changes when injury intervenes
Maybe back when we had 16 man squads, but it's definitely a squad game now. I think it's added to the game, having more subs, we've won a fair few games this season off the back of good substitutions.

It looked as if his arm came out to an 'unusual' position, but that was possibly as it was struck by the ball, I'm guessing that's what the ref went on?. VAR check may not have made a difference, when you consider that Hertz penalty went to VAR.
One of the Killie handballs was a stonewaller, and right in front of the ref as well.

This incessant moaning about refs is very yahooesque. Theirs was a stick on penalty.
Good victory at a difficult venue.
Very much so, terrific result. Wee bit unfair to say it's a typical McInnes performance, he's had them playing some cracking football this season, much as it pains me to say it!.
Fingers crossed on Cortes injury.

Just watched the highlights again, what a ball that was for Dessers first goal from big Souttar, superb.
We're playing some fantastic football, but its also great to see how PC allows/wants us to go direct when it's on. Having players with the great distribution that both centre halves possess is a huge advantage.

It really says a hell of a lot about PC that he's made us almost forget about Sima. Unimaginable a couple of months back.
Bravo.

Aye, pictures tell whatever story you want. The guy went in with both feet off the ground, and when your feet are higher than your arse, at the speed he was coming in at, you make the refs decision easy.
