der Berliner 3,744 Posted July 17, 2018 Share Posted July 17, 2018 "Experience" on the bench is Halliday and perhaps Alnwick. The rest are essentially Greenhorns, with the youngster - after last season - have probably more "experience" than the rest. Even with Sadiq in the squad (back home), we have but two strikers plus Rudden. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Surely even you have heard of Alexander the Great? There was even a recent Hollywood blockbuster on him, directed by Oliver Stone. (I wouldn't recommend it, frankly; one of the US critics - I forget who- derided it by suggesting that its only highlights were the ones in lead actor Colin Farrell's hair: a reasonable observation) Edited July 17, 2018 by Uilleam 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I said as much on the Podcast. One Rangers supporter has been taken to hospital seemingly. I can't confirm but the post was made by someone who is there. Yeah seen reports of this too from people there. It's in Greece though attacked by fans of aris. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
