Juancornetto 1 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 (edited) Saturday's 2-0 defeat at Ibrox, although Hearts had a goal wrongly ruled out, underlined their defensive deficiencies. Rangers' first goal was an unchallenged header from a free kick. The second featured two failed attempts to cut out a bread-and-butter cross. Rob Maclean(BBC) http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/football/38289574 https://twitter.com/Ruth_Less_Lady/status/807967486498967554 Clearly offside when you see it slowed down. Fantastic decision.

26th of foot 6,082 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Big Jambo, the greeting faced Michael Stewart, declared the offside decision as, "a shocking decision" on Sportscene last night. Cliches were thrown around without abandon, "goals change games", "the first goal is all important at Ibrox" and, "Rangers didn't let it effect them"! His reddened face got redder, and then Jamie Walker's booking was replayed. Michael declared it, "a shocking decision". I know Michael lost out on a constituency run-off for the SNP in Edinburgh last year. Please Nicola, let Michael into Holyrood where his proclamations of "shocking decisions" will carry more gravitas. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Given the calibre of the majority of SNP MSPs, and MPs, it must have been a major surprise to him that he was not selected. We can agree, surely, that it was a "shocking decision" by the constituency party, one that can be put alongside that of Alex McLeish, who when Rangers' Manager, did not offer him terms, even after a trial period, of a week or thereby.

der Berliner 3,744 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 ... am I right in suspecting that the shocking fouls on Halliday and McKay weren't shown, discussed, and analyzed? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think he played a couple of friendlies on a club pre-season tour of Germany/Austria. We beat Roma 4-1 in one of the games. Alex Rae played in the Roma game and he upset the BBC Scotland Jambos on Saturday. A pre-match ten minute discussion including Biscuits Preston and Tom English(yep, Tom finds it convenient to let folks know he favours the boys in maroon). Anyways, Rae referred to, "the boy Cathro", and Jambo Tom lost it. Apparently, using such terms as 'boy' marginalises Cathro, and we should refrain. Now, here in deepest, darkest Lanarkshire, the term 'boy' refers to all males from a year old to one hundred. Obviously, to the ears of a privately educated, rugby playing boarding school Jambo like Tom, it is a deeply pernicious term. Well, if you are reading Tom, the boy Cathro mirrored your schooling on Saturday, bent over and the big wooden one popped the maroon keester. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Last week, they failed to show the already booked Considine playing basketball in winning a free kick. A second yellow, he's off. Nope, we see the flighted delivery from said free kick and Condidine heads the consolation. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The term "boy" in the WofS, or even in the Gaeltacht, for that matter, does not have the pejorative connotations which English sought to impute. If we were, however, south of the Mason-Dixon Line, and Cathro was black, or of mixed race........then the boyo Tom may have had a point.

Scott7 6,009 Posted December 12, 2016 Share Posted December 12, 2016 Could have been worse. Could have been a north-easter calling him the loon, Cathro. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
