Beale is losing me. So little of what he does seems to make sense. If Hagi has any self-respect he would table a transfer request.

St Brendan is back. Tom English will feel quietly vindicated

Everton are relegation fodder. A club in terminal decline

Sounds like an excellent idea.

A small item of good news from kilmarnock

Really? Where?

I'll tell you what Rangers fans really are. We're too often taken for granted, frequently let down by players who talk a great game but actually couldn't give a shit. We perennially suffer managers who stubbornly refuse to acknowledge mistakes and we're routinely served up utter shite in return for our unerring loyalty. So it's little wonder when Rangers fans sometimes get sick of the years of failure, watching our rivals hoover up trophy after trophy, season after season. There's now a deep and growing suspicion that the current regime is leading us nowhere and the frustration is building. Are you saying we should sit and sing platitudes in return? Or beat a fukking drum like performing seals?

I voted for Cifuentes. I meant to vote for Hagi. I can't be trusted.

No chance. Not until you grovel

"Hup Holland Hup" Dutch people are a lot less precious about what Holland means than we seem to be.

Strange, I've always found the Rangers support to be remarkably honest insomuch as they always reflect how the team is performing. If the team want a more generous reaction from the crowd, perhaps they might consider playing better. Or is that unreasonable? That said, it would be extremely arrogant to claim our dogmatic sing-regardless 'ultras' are somehow better supporters that anyone else in the stadium.

I moved from one end of the stadium to the other to get away from that God awful racket. Now it's going to ruin every game again. What is it about these adolescents that needs a deafening drum to support their team?

It's early days but some things are already starting to become clear. 1. Lammers and Sima have brought almost nothing to the team that we didn't already have in Hagi and Sakala. 2. Hagi will leave if he continues to be sidelined to make way for under performers. Probably in January. That would be a tragedy. 3. When he came to Rangers Colak immediately did what he was signed to do - score goals. His replacement with Dessers and Danilo, together with continuing to cold-shoulder Roofe, has taken us backwards. I'm genuinely confused about the lack of clear direction from Beale. I can't see a discernible football vision or a strategy to achieve it. New players seem constantly confused, old players are benched and selection seems to be on anything but merit. What's the plan, where are we going?

Not so sure about that. I thought Barisic had one of his better games.

We could start by putting our best players on the park. Too many are getting a starting place for no apparent reason other than being new to the squad, rather than on merit. Too many of our newbies need to earn a starting place but are nowhere near the mark in terms of effort or composure.

But I thought his name was Tamundo. Anyway it IS now.

Feckless tripe again. Maybe now Beale will consider the team he should have sent out in the first place. He seems to be adopting a sink-or-swim approach to his new signings. Unfortunately they mainly seem to be sinking out of sight at the moment. It's touching that he thought Lammers, Tamundo and Dessers were the solution for this game ... and that we needed Cifu AND Lundstram instead of some creativity in midfield. We could lose this game if the manager persists with this nonsense.

It's ridiculous that Hagi and Roofe can't get a start. The defence is fine but up front it just looks weak. We'll see.

A thought - are Rangers trying to set up the SPFL again?

As far as I can see there is no basis for anyone insisting Celtic fans must be given 15% of our stadium ... or any amount greater than fans of other clubs. The SFA can insist we make seats available to them, which we have said we will do but not how many seats.

What Celtic will get is the same as every other visiting club. What Celtic chose to decline is their own business. Bisgrove knows giving them the entire Broomloan stand will cause an uproar to make his Sydney fuck up look like a mild complaint.

The police won't accept that. It's ALL of the Broomloan or NONE of it.
