you should turn your camera 90 degrees then the sideways pics will be the right way up (or upside down) -

it's on BT sport so we'll get interviews with our guys as well -
[FT] Falkirk 3 - 2 Rangers (Miller 7; McKay 9)
colinstein replied to Frankie's topic in Rangers Chat
Falkirk had a go at Ibrox and looked useful going forward. Let's hope they make a game of it tonight. I think Forrester and O'Halaron will play as the squad is rotated. -
Great stuff. It's they way forward. We need to own Rangers and the rest of them, tims too, will need to do it as well Is there going to be a bar of 21% or something that RF/RST can buy ? I don't understand that

there's a quote from him somewhere else saying he was a Celtic fan until he was 11 years old. He also said his family were Celtic fans. I'll try to find it today. That doesn't square with what he's claiming in that interview
-
see the BBC were covering their arses last night on the wireless. McLaughlin was wheeled on to talk about Celtic fans IRA chanting and the SPFL response. Guess your complaint has made them try to appear even handed. Just note that this was on 15'th March after several complaints had been sent to them
-
they'll want to get the league signed, sealed, delivered a.s.a.p.
-
wish they would spell "focused" correctly.

I'm for a publicly funded broadcaster but I don't expect impartiality. At a national level the BBC and their news coverage is a propaganda machine for the British Government. Always has been.

Kyle Lafferty: I would love to return to Rangers FC

was it Owen Coyle who shafted us for a transfer fee for Lafferty? -
Scott McDermott: Rangers WILL challenge for Premiership title ...
colinstein replied to ian1964's topic in Rangers Chat
you have to dig deep on the Record website to find that article. He's right of course. We will be challenging and we won't need to spend millions (I hope we don't) -
was just thinking about Rouseau's stuff. Is Kenny Miller the metronome now ?
-
McKay's proved me 100% wrong. He's created space by beating his man and formed a productive partnership with Wallace. I'd vote for him
-
when we went to Wolverhampton town he played a blinder. he was a reserve then in for George Niven who must have been injured. Ritchie, Shearer Caldow, Davis Patterson Baxter, Scott, MacMillan, Millar Brand and Wilson.......................was the first 'Gers team I ever saw v Stirling Albion....5....1 at Ibrox
-
didn't Aberdeen beat them recently ?
-
I think there were times when Greenco wanted to punt him and he said no
-
Lee's been excellent bombing forward but maybe Strachan doesn't want to play that type of game. Frankly when Lee (or Tavs for that matter) are one on one with a tricky winger I hold my breath. He's been playing well recently but there have been times when he's looked vulnerable at the back. Strachan is too much of a pro to leave a player out because he plays for us.....that's nonsense. I reckon Strachan and McGhee have done well with what they've got available for the Scotland squad

Mike Ashley threatened with contempt of parliament

GERS boss could end up right back to square one if Ronny Deila can inflict a heavy defeat on his side during the Scottish Cup semi-final. 8 COMMENTS Dave King and Mark Warburton MARK WARBURTON has enjoyed a smooth ride as Rangers manager. Over the next few weeks that could change spectacularly. When Rangers and Celtic’s names came out of the hat together for the Scottish Cup semi-final draw the debate started. If this goes pear-shaped for his team at Hampden and they lose this one that will surely be the end for the manager. That is the popular feeling right now. But here’s the thing. What manager’s situation does that best describe? The whole world and his auntie thinks it means Ronny Deila but what if the same applies to Warburton? Nobody has actually flipped the potential impact of this semi-final around. What happens if Rangers go to Hampden and get thumped 4-0 or 5-0 by an average Celtic team? image: http://i4.dailyrecord.co.uk/incoming/article7170149.ece/ALTERNATES/s615b/GP33949028.jpg Celtic and Rangers are set to go head-to-head at Hampden in the Scottish Cup semi-finalCeltic and Rangers are set to go head-to-head at Hampden in the Scottish Cup semi-final I would suggest that puts Warburton right back to square one. Warburton is clearly a smart guy. He’s always talking up the English game, he’s always on the radio down south and it’s clear he’s making sure people keep hearing him in England. I’m not suggesting there is any sinister motive in that. But what I am sure about is Warburton’s stock was high when he left Brentford. The reasons for his departure were unfortunate and quite probably unfair on him. But he has moved to Rangers and kept that stock rising. He seems to be still well regarded and good for him. However, I’d say Warburton isn’t doing anything with Rangers in the Scottish Championship that he shouldn’t be doing. Let’s not get too carried away as in the main Rangers should be smashing the likes of Alloa, Dumbarton and Livingston with their eyes closed. The Light Blues under- achieved massively last season and Warburton has come in, calmed things down and simply achieved what he should have league wise and improved the playing personnel. Hibs and, to a lesser extent Falkirk, are the only real competition in the Championship. Warburton has beaten them, yes, but he has lost to them both as well. Win one, lose one for a mid-table finish isn’t going to cut any ice with the Rangers fans when they get back to the Premiership.

He felt it was ridiculous to have his team subjected to an inquiry after one defeat. Excuse me if I have got this wrong but I haven’t seen him make similar comments about the hysteria that has followed last weekend’s Scottish Cup win over Dundee. If you don’t want judged on one-off games Mark then I won’t. I’m looking to judge the Ibrox side over a 38-game programme next season and, with the current squad, they look mid-table. I’ve said they could possibly beat Celtic in a one-off tie but not over 38 games. Nor Aberdeen and nor Hearts for that matter. After the events of last weekend the Rangers fans are euphoric about the opportunity of playing Celtic and I can see their logic. Deila’s team are toiling badly right now. I’m not going to go over the same old stuff but I have said they are in a bad way and I can’t see any way back for the Norwegian manager. Rangers could win but at the same time this under- performing Celtic side could just as easily find their form and go and give Rangers a right hiding. If they do it gives Warburton a serious problem. He’s going to know already his team needs serious strengthening for the Premiership. One 90-minute win over Dundee doesn’t change that so this is where the backing from the board comes in. I don’t know how much money Dave King has. http://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/opinion/sport/chris-sutton-doing-celtic-no-7534031#7opXFYG4oLyoQFgh.97
