While fully expecting to swagger into ibrokes and take three points we must be careful. I watched the Thistle game live and freezing from the home of thrills, and let me say the jags were the better football team. Sevco started quickly, seems to be Brother Pedros way, but they do seem to favour a long ball game which i find strange.
The boy Declan (jeeze that must be burning them up) was really pacy and adventurous although lacked a bit of composure on his final ball. Moralles seems like a bit of a find, willing to chase and gets a shot away quickly, but really should get a chasing trying to shut our defence and midfield down.
And that's about it! No one else really stood out, Candeias (? ) looks ok but also can get caught dreaming for me. So that's that.
If we are on it and awake from minute one we will comfortably win, just beware of the first couple of minutes. Lots of pace and shelling balls wide will be the tactic.

FGJ-I have seen nothing from them to suggest anything but a comfortable win for us on Saturday. Complacency is our biggest threat but I am sure Brendan is well aware of this. We have better players in every position and should win at a canter.

We will win Saturday. Here is league cup draw.
Rangers v Motherwell
Hibs v Celtic.
Get your savings on a Rangers home tie to Motherwell. Its in the stars. Or in the balls, not sure which.

BR. Get the cheque book out. Go and buy Molt from Motherwell. Send your Man City striker back. Belive they want £10mill. Forget it buy Molt. Better than Griffiths.

Wonder what sort of odds PP will give on Motherwell beating the rangers,?

Johnnymac aren't all the semis at hampden?

@Johnymac, Moult you are joking aren't you, better than Griffiths? Jeezo remember Ciftci looked decent at Dundee Utd b4 we signed him. PS semi finals played at Hampdump no home ties.

@FGJ The only worrying thing about Morelos is his absolute shocker of a haircut.

guys i have to say Moult seems to have what it takes . Now I know its the SPFL but takes into consideration, that we create so many chances for the strikes.
He scores goals, tons of pace and chases down the ball, just like LG and is a very good age at 25.

There is a very strange mood going on with the currants I work with. Call it blind faith or delusion, most of them actually think their team is coming up to par with us. Even after I pointed out that in both games against Partick, they struggled to beat a side who were playing poorly. I have seen no evidence lately that the cheats eleven are improving. One guy I spoke to had his head firmly back on the ground and stated that in the 30 years he's supported Rangers (didn't have the heart to remind him it was 25 + 5 supporting New Rangers) , it's the worst team he's seen and thinks Celtic will annihilate them.
I remember the pre McCann days when we were awful. I used to stand in the jungle saying this would improve, it had to. We were losing games by the bucketload. I don't think anyone at that time realised how dire things were, we really were days from getting wound up. All this while the establishment looked on, unhelpful and Murray's magical moonbeam tax haven who couldn't wait for us to go bust.
Everytime we hump them, I think back to those dark days and think to myself, GIRFUY!
MON THE HOOPS!
