I think the reason we have not signed anyone yet, is that we are waiting to see if we go through tomorrow night, as if we do it will give Lenny the funds to get the players he wants. as at the moment we are skint.Hail Hail

One guy posted it as a question to see if it was possible, whats funny about that?

What a sad bunch of supporters you all are

Just heard that one of your lot is soo obsessed with rangers that he sent a letter to Maribor to advise them that bocanegra was 'supposedly' ineligible to play last week How f$$king sad and low can you stoop??

All the concerns about the tax case etc is soo pathetic it's untrue Worry about your own s**t team - uz will get pumped the mora as usual away from home in Europe Can't wait to play uz, we will demolish your mob this season

4 in a row here we come

In ally we trust :-)

You just heard that one of "our lot" has contacted uefa here i'll lift the stone & you get back under,there's a good slug.
evening ed marty bhoy, hows you {Ed007's Note - I'm doing well Marty mate.}

Another sad obsessed gers fan on the celtic pages more like. in fat sally you trust you mean as he was crying in the papers about nameless gers posters calling him useless. he was starting to sound a bit like timalloy thinking about it.

I can't believe a Rangers fan is talking about an "obsession" with their rivals and using something apparently sent via the postal system as evidence.

Go figure.

Marty Bhoy, Wee Pat, dont give these no names posters any credence, did they DNA letter to prove who sent it, ach wee bear awayanbileyerheid. LOL Timalloy

Yep Mr In ALly we trust , i 've been caught by you red handed it was me that sent a letter 2 Fifa Worth a shot wasn't it?

Timalloy that`s what fat sally said.

Afternoon Ed007, wanted to comment on remarks made firstly by Wannyama about pressure of crowd, and then today by Maloney, that heat in Switzerland
has upset their eating and sleeping patterns. Is it just me? Or should these "fragile" temperaments not be allowed any where near the first team. We need strong players out there tomorrow.
My next point is, and I know I will get pelters for this, but play Samaras tomorrow, this is his type of game, holding ball up and bringing others into play, and also his running into spaces. Please give Sammy another chance, remember what he did to Rangers at Ipox, when he is in right mood he can win game for us. hail hail Timalloy {Ed007's Note - Afternoon Tim, I agree mate, I don't know what Maloney is on about, Wanyama is young and new to the club but Maloney should know better than come out with stuff like that.}

I totally agree If you can't take the pressure shouldn't be in the first team, we need players who thrive under pressure remebember MON teams they were constantly put under pressure and written off but look at the fight they had. I know Lennon Is trying to do this along with playing good football but we need players who have the balls to take a grip of a game.

Samaras should play tomorrow and this should be make or break. He's been given far too many chances by Celtic and this is the game he has to step up. He scored the away goal that put us through to the qualifier with arsenal when mogga was in charge so he can be a lone striker but he simply has to deliver. For me it's do or die tomorrow.
Kevbhoy

Kevbhoy, I agree this is the type of game Lenny wants Sammy for, so here's hoping he gives a big performance. Timalloy

Timbo ma sun big sammy wiz askid bae the sellik doaktur tae haud his baws up n drappid thum,nuff sed,tim alloy here wee man huv ye goat any alloys fur a corsa thit am aboot tae akwire(2006),ahl swap thum fur a munkee(plus cash obvio) mind you you widnae see alot ae caurs comin thru govan wid ye unles they hid thur sireens wailin (like boab marleynae giro nae cry")

Sammy played at his best in a big game against Rangers when people had serious doubts over him and he obviously felt he had a point to prove.

Maybe recent pelters is the catalyst as he hasn't played a competitive game since last season.

If he does play tomorrow I think he'll play well. If he doesn't though I think he should be out the door.

Ha ha Pat, Govan has got its good points (the underground out of it) Hail hail Timalloy

Just a quick line from the blue side of the city

Wanted to wish you guys good luck on Thursday night. Best for everyone if we both go through.

Bluegenius

You know what , the guy is right. Buuuuuut, I still want them hounded Can't help it. That's what makes Scottish football fun I guess. I'm not going to work and slap folks on the back coz they got through, no way I'll be ripping RITE in, just as they would me... coz it is written

Bluegenius, thanks for that, I too want both teams through for our coefficient and also if gers are playing thursday, sunday same as us no body gets a rest day midweek and thus no advantage gained. Still come on and annoy you bears as usual though. hail hail Timalloy

My predictions for tomorrow night are:
Celtic will draw 1-1 and Rangers will win 1-0.

Jungle Bhoy.

Not a rumor just an opinion.. Right does anyone else ed007 included think Lenny should drop our so called stars for a week bring in youth players just to show that commons & co dont have to just turn up and not try.? {Ed007's Note - I would rather some of the youth got their chance than just signing players for the sake of it. Maybe start mixing some youth into the team. I wouldn't have a problem with that, how else will NL find out if they are good enough?}

Just posted this Ed coz took kids up for 1st game on Sunday Celtic lacked drive and passion fringe- youth players could put that back... Plus commons needs to run off pre season NANDOS. might also make 1-5 players think? {Ed007's Note - Valid points mate. IMO there should be 2/3 youth players coming through every season, not for every game but given a good few chances to impress. Even as you say, to push players who might have become complacent. A lot of fans would rather see money spent on some fancy named foreigner with a million £ price tag than see youth come through. CFC, Rangers, Man Utd even Barcelona etc have built their reputation over the decades on producing their own players and just buying quality. Even though it is through necessity with injuries etc over at Ibrox, they are at least seeing young players playing in competitive games and the youngsters are gaining experience.}

Youth players wont bring that back . if anyone was at the partick thistle game at the start of the season you would have seen that. you might get an odd good performance from them but you wont get any consistancy . kayal , hooper , emilio , ki are all young our average squad age is 27 so the young boys wont make a difference.

Managers like McCall are always going to play right into rangers hands .
the young rangers boys just picked motherwell off on the counter attack but if it was celtic everyone would be camped outside there own 18 yard line as always . If motherwell camped in there own half rangers could not break them down so easily .

McCall played the exact same tactics as last season against rangers always playing into rangers strong points. if a team is good on the break you sit in and keep things tight squeeze the space's and close down men , you dont open up and let thewm play in behind you.

Motherwell will never beat rangers with mccall in charge.

You do know how stupid that sounds right? So McCall tells his players "eh look lads, its Rangers today, I know we're top of the league and we haven't conceded a goal yet but Allys ma pal"

Talking of conspiracies, 9-0 v Aberdeen, did you forget that? Ex-player and rabid Sellik fan McGhee was the manager if I remember

Right I'm the one who posted this .. Why have we loaned out o'dea, Thomson? And rogne hoiveld are better than big Dan on Sunday he couldn't control a medicine ball fringe defenders are better than what we ate playing now. & some e says youth can't do it none of the 1st team have scored in 2games .. IMO Rasmussen should be given a chance even young keatings.

I don't think filling the squad with youngsters is a good idea as we haven't got many worth playing. That said we don't know if they're worth a shout if we don't give them a game.

However if they've been particularly poor I'd happily drop maybe one per game and give starts to e.g. Forrest, Wanyama, Matthews and Twardzik of whom most could play where Commons and Brown do who IMO have been poor so far this season. I also think we should bring more youngsters on when games are dead and buried as we usually bring on McCourt, Maloney, Sammy, Murphy etc. At least one of these could be a youngster (other than Forrest).

As a Rangers fan I often check rumours and Banter from the champions' pages. Decided to see whats happening in the land of the hoops and I know as we have similar budgets etc we will occasionally be linked with same players but u can imagine the coincidence when the 1st 4 players (Banks Blake, mcdonald, Roque Santa Cruz and Le Fondre) on this page are all linked with Rangers on their page in last 24 hours.
Its only a Rumour site but cmon at least differentiate between Gers and Hoops and dont just post them on both sites

Old firm will be linked with same players as agents tout them at both clubs

24 Aug 2011 00:20:31
we really need a striker asap. samaras should of been allowed to leave on a free. murphy, never understood the signing. Dont know if im keen on signing le fondre, it would be a gamble. Fair enough he is on form, but paying £650k for a league 2 player we would be taking a massive chance.
