Rangers can seal a 'Bosman' transfer to English League, says legal expert

Yeah. I'm providing facts, statistics and examples of players, you're blaming the weather or the price of Buckfast in Coatbridge yet I'm the one having a nightmare. Good one.

 

well at least you know.

 

A decade ago Celtic apparently had the cream of Scottish youth, they were the most represented club in the best Scottish international side of the last 20 years. A decade is an acceptable length of time to judge any youth set-up, I've no agenda, I'm just stating facts. You start including guys who are now in their 30s if you want, but they are hardly illustrative of what's happening just now or in the recent past. Pick any time frame you want, as I said go back to the 70s, what about Charlie Nicholas, Billy McNeil, Wille Malley!!

 

your agenda is clear you even admitted to wearing blue tinted specs and being biased. lol

 

Yeah, they're getting horsed, of course it matters. I enjoy hearing of Celtic getting horsed, so will most of the people on this site, I was simply giving you the opportunity to spread some joy for a change... All the sides I mentioned weren't invited either, how are you judging their youth set-up then, inferior to Celtics?

 

but not me? zzz they are not direct rivals to rangers so i dont care what level their youth set ups are at. my guess is they may well have been invited and declined and with a bit of research it looks like they did indeed reject the offer to take part.

 

I'm the only one doing any debating, you're just closing your eyes, putting your hands over your ears and shouting 'Celtic are great, Celtic are great' at the top of your voice. Back up your assertion with facts not opinion.

 

well thats just a blatant lie. lol

 

No, no, I'm really bitter, I'm the first to admit it. But that alone doesn't make me wrong on this.

 

sadly it does, very much so in fact. govanallan and gunslinger both put you in your place several pages back and you still wont have it.

 

sometimes its best to stop digging those holes and just leave it be. sadly some just cant help themselves.

5 years ago i was at barrowfield watching a rangers team with adam, durie, perry, wilson, ness, campbell, wylde fleck, little and i think mcgeoch came on. play what can only be described as a team of irish tattie farmers.

 

rangers were light years ahead of celtc.

 

celtc released all but one of their players and rebuilt from the ground up. now we are light years behind thanks imho to sinclair.

 

its the first thing charlie should rectify. if you ask me.

Anecdotal information is important and like you I’d want the club to give the best possible impression. At the same time I’m wary. Asking parents of youth players to contribute to their development doesn’t sound like the worst idea I’ve ever heard. Indeed I could be persuaded that sorting out the commitment of potential players at that age, or indeed their parents, might be a smart move. If they’re picking clubs based on money at that stage then what chance do we have of engendering any loyalty in them later on?

 

But your friends experience is disappointing. When was this as a matter of interest?

 

Start of this season, I agree parents should contribute, but my sons who play for the local boys club get strips, training gear and sports bag for nothing (paid for by the sponsors) and a trip to Holland to play football all paid for. The parents more or less pay for the hire of the pitches for training/playing.

 

Bit that worried me most was Celtics insistence that the boys attend a local catholic school, very strange imo.

thats not a number

 

and yes i am. its not particularly hard you simply ignore how they are playing and the result and look at their skills. if a player has a good first touch then they will always have a good first touch etc etc.

 

 

i also know people intimately involved at murray park and i am telling you its night and day to whats going on at barrowfield.

 

It's not particularly hard, really? I'm sorry Gunslinger but that's just utter rubbish. I've no idea what qualification you've got but if you've the ability you seem to think you have I've no doubt you'll be snapped up as a scout by a senior side sometime soon. Ability like yours shouldn't be hidden away.

just one more reason for a youth to go to celtc. at rangers even if you are the best player in training you have a massive barrier to get over to get to the first team. ally mccoist.

It took to the bottom of page 13 before someone blamed McCoist, that's a new Gersnet record, well done.

 

See I know nothing about it, but even I know that it isn't all down to ability, i'm surprised someone with your deep knowledge doesn't. Mentality, courage, the ability to follow instruction, positional sense, temper control, physical strength all play a part. Still, blame Ally, it's all the rage.

Still unable to form a coherent argument I see. Fair enough, you can't defend the indefensible.

so what we are saying is you've never watched the youths at rangers or celtc. but you know whos got the better system.

 

yet its impossible that i know a football player when i see one despite my entire life of watching and playing football since 5.

 

is that about right?

I suppose last summer was a fairly exceptional time for the club, perhaps organisation and finance weren't at their best. But I take your point.

 

Yeah, the school thing is very strange and frankly quite telling.

so why isnt the best player in training getting a game? i would like to blame charles but even i couldn't justify that one.

you certainly cannot!
