RANGERRAB 3,663 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Griffiths & Tierney pulled out the Scotland Squad & will no doubt be fit to play next Saturday. Lee Wallace has now done likewise. If they can do it so can we. Now let's gauge the reaction from the usual suspects...... 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
alexscottislegend 2,320 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Serious question: I thought you couldn't just pull out of a competitive game unless excused by the medical staff of one's country? This was designed to stop clubs feigning injury of their players then playing them in the next club match? Didn't know about Lee being told he wouldn't play v Linfield. As for Griffiths and Tierney I would hope their injuries are genuine too. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 Given the fixture list was a complete fix why did they make the old firm game just after the internationals 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

According to McCulloch on the Clyde phone in tonight, Wallace was indeed excused by Scotland medical staff. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,744 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) Wonder who will play leftback tomorrow ... for us that is. Or will we try 3-1-3-3? Edited September 2, 2016 by der Berliner 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooponthewing 1,139 Posted September 2, 2016 Share Posted September 2, 2016 (edited) If Hodsnon is away on NI duty then I can only think to put Keirnan at left back(he's left footed?) and the new young boy we got from Raith Rovers at CH beside Senderos? Either that or as you say DB a back three of Keirnan, Senderos and Tav with Rossiter in front then 3-3. Not sure tbh?? Options with next week in mind??? Although if he is thinking of 3-5-2 next week then a back three tomorrow would be a good shout.

We're losing too many goals so three CB's might help to sort this & we've got two FB's ideally suited to this system IMO 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Crooks Flexible On Gers Role http://rangers.co.uk/news/headlines/crooks-flexible-gers-role/ I don't think we will see Crooks in action at the piggery!,too early for him,I watch some highlights of the youth game and without trying to down him he didn't look up to speed,it was only brief highlights so I'm not judging him. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,723 Posted September 2, 2016 Author Share Posted September 2, 2016 This is the World Cup not a friendly. Don't anybody on here ever complain again if he gets overlooked. I thought countries had the power now to demand release from clubs, that absence due to injury was only allowed after examination by the doctor of the national squad. I'm not celebrating - I'm disappointed in Lee. Why are you disappointed in Lee?,he's carrying an injury. Mckay won't get a game and Wallace would probably not got a game either!. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
