ian1964 10,548 Posted November 10, 2011 Share Posted November 10, 2011 Gregg Wylde scored the only goal of the game as Scotland's Under-21s defeated Rangers at Murray Park. Rangersâ?? Gregg Wylde had the rare experience of taking on, and scoring against, his own club on Thursday in a bounce match at Murray Park. The winger lined up for Scotlandâ??s Under-21 side in a specially arranged fixture against the Ibrox club and scored the only goal of the game. Wylde is one of three Rangers players in Billy Starkâ??s national squad, with defenders Darren Cole and Ross Perry also selected for the forthcoming European Under-21 Championship qualifier against Holland. The Under 21s are currently four points behind their Monday opponents in Group 10 with three games played, having won one and drawn two of their games to date. Wylde will miss Rangersâ?? next two games after the international break, having been sent off in his last competitive match against Dundee United. The 20-year-old was dismissed for violent conduct in the game, having kicked out at Willo Flood, leading to manager Ally McCoist telling Wylde publicly he will have to â??learn things like that are not acceptableâ?. http://sport.stv.tv/football/scottish-premier/rangers/278543-rangers-winger-plays-against-rangers-and-scores-the-winner/ 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,405 Posted November 11, 2011 Share Posted November 11, 2011 A) This game was actually the reason* why Grant Adam withdrew (he did indeed, and was not dumped) from the Scots u21s, since he did not want to play agains The Rangers. B) For some reason STV deemed it more appropriate to tell some non-international-related facts about Wylde, rather than reveal the line-ups of both side, for example. *Nope, just pure guesswork 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
