If Southampton were to get relegated this season, do you think there is any chance we could get Foster back? Or is he now out of our price range?

05 Mar 2018 21:36:22
Think that would give him away he’s been very poor and his passing/ kicking wouldn’t suit BRs passing.

05 Mar 2018 21:36:40
Defo unfortunately the price tag and the wages maybe end up at some pishy low end epl side other than the one he's at.

Can’t wait till Sunday to shut this mob up.

Do they honestly think beating Ayr Utd, st Johnstone, Falkirk and Hamilton makes them world beaters 😂😂😂.
Think they forget that they have never beat us in the league and wee have only lost twice in 2 seasons.

I love their deluded fans though, always build their selfs up for a big fall☘️.

Guaranteed they will all be back under their rocks on Sunday night though.

Never rated foster tbh think there's better out there. I always thought Bain was decent whenever I saw him at Dundee. Would like to see him get a chance because DDV and Gordon don't fill me with confidence.

06 Mar 2018 18:59:15
It will be a while yet until we see Bain in goals for Celtic . I am not too worried about De Vries or Gordon as Celtic haven't conceded a bag of goals domestically with either in goals. Certainly not enough to try someone new to club in front of the Ibrox scrum.

05 Mar 2018 18:52:34
The over confidence coming from the dark side is laughable, who have they actually beaten? Last decent side they played was v Hibernian and they lost at home. Celtic play well on sunday and the result will take care of itself. Rogic and ntcham will be big players on sunday i hope they both start and people talk about our defence? rangers at the back are dire.

Got a feeling bhoys we will see the return of Craig “ honest mistake” Thompson on Sunday to help dig the Sevco back out their cesspit. think this season we have been abit disappointed but that’s only because of the invincibles season if it wasn’t for that this would be looked upon as a good season and still will be when we make history and lift our double treble. for me personally I think Armstrong’s form from last season has been a huge miss in our midfield this year.

John beatons the ref.

When you look at the 'rogues gallery' including Thomson, Madden, Beaton, McLean, Clancy and baby Dallas; it's virtually impossible to avoid any biased establishment representative (or previous Ibrox season ticket holders) . As long as we turn up and play, there should be no cause for concern, in continuing our domestic dominance.

Brother Madden will be raging!

Bhoys in the last 18 games we have taken 38 points. In the last 19 games Rangers have taken 40 points so there is nothing between us on points. So when posters say that it only looks poor compared to how we did last season i can't see it. Right now we are no better than they are. We are having an average season. Rangers have improved a lot since Murty took over from Pedro. We need to start playing as we should. We have better players and we need to go out on Sunday and take 3 goals off them. We have the players to do that but we need to want it more than they do. Its upto BR to get it sorted.

05 Mar 2018 20:19:18
We have better players. Better manager, better record. All this title challenge and meltdown is some laugh, how many games have they lost in 80 odd games? I know it's only 2 for us. They're in for a treble of disappointments v Scotland's Number1.

05 Mar 2018 21:04:02
Johnnymac. I never says we have been poor this season my point was after the success of last season ( a season that will live long in our memories till the day we die ) . if it wasn’t for last seasons successful then this would still be looke upon as a great season which it is and still will be just last seasons standards will probs never be reached again and if the invincibles never happened then this season would be looked upon a lot greater. hail hail bhoys. let the people sing l. double treble haha imagine that. even “super “ who almost got Everton relegated without his cheque book never achieved what Brendan Is on the cusp on. what happens if Moussa scores in the first 10 mins at ibrokes? . hmmmmm supposedly we are getting beat 5-0.hail hail x.

Hi Ed, Surely Eduoard to start against Sevco? Thought we should have kept him in the side and went with the same formation after the Hearts performance. Link up play with Dembele and pace will cause them problems. Expecting BR to spring a surprise or 2 with his line up and formation at the weekend. I have read a few comments about Compper, not so much on here but elsewhere, yes he needs to get up to pace and that's expected after injury but i thought he looked very composed at the weekend and noticed he played the ball very well with both feet. He will be a very good addition.

{Ed007's Note - I'd start with Edouard too instead of Sinclair. Compper will probably start as well but I wouldn't hold my breath on him getting up to pace - pace is one thing he doesn't have!}

05 Mar 2018 12:29:31
Compper would be huge gamble. He looked composed nut was he really tested? Sevco are stronger coming down his side, tavernier n candy ass, so i would hope he will be benched. Be really interesting who BR puts out.

{Ed007's Note - If he does play 3-4-2-1 and doesn't go with Compper will he move KT back and go with Ajer, Simunovic and KT?}

05 Mar 2018 12:35:13
Ed007, I couldn’t believe how slow he looked. I thought because he was coming back from injury he might have been pacing himself. If that was him in full pelt then he is slower than Daniel Majstorovic if that’s possible!

{Ed007's Note - If you ask anyone that regularly watched him in Germany they all say the same thing about his lack of pace which he tries to counter with his reading of the game. Obviously being out injured will have taken it's toll but I don't expect to see any vast improvement in his pace when he's fully fit.}

05 Mar 2018 12:48:24
Maybe BR will use him left CB when up to full fitness. Depends on how well others do i suppose. If that is him at full pace i would not like to see a 4 man defence with him LB Lustig RB.

{Ed007's Note - He'll be fine at LB against other teams in Scotland if KT needs rested.}

05 Mar 2018 12:54:50
The break did KT the world of good he looks more like his old self. Wouldn't be surprised is he scored a screamer at the Bigotdome.

{Ed007's Note - KT and Brown getting our 3rd and 4th goals :-D

05 Mar 2018 12:58:46
The only thing that would top that Ed would be Paul McStay getting a 5 min cameo at the end.

{Ed007's Note - And he'd still be the best player on the park.}

05 Mar 2018 16:32:28
Mcstay would win player of the year even just playing 5 minutes.

05 Mar 2018 22:30:17
Compper like a lot of good centre halves probably relies on his positioning sense rather than pace . I personally prefer positioning sense .

06 Mar 2018 22:07:33
There is very little gamble, no matter who Brendan Rodgers plays in defence .
We are not playing Hibs or Aberdeen but a 5/ 6 year old club without a proper manager and no credit line
Rangers are not a good team and now that we are coming out of a very busy playing period and getting injured players back we have much to much for Rangers.

05 Mar 2018 11:37:12
So does anyone else think GM played a school boy error by revealing the sevco dressing room cheering when they were drawn against Celtic. .
Now if anyone needs put back in there place it's this lot.
Am sure all there misplaced confidence is music to BR ears.
Let's hope they fill this weeks papers full of there nonsense because come Monday they will be wanting another manager again.

05 Mar 2018 12:15:34
He has made a huge mistake and that is brendans team talk sorted. Last decent team they played was hibernian and they lost we have nothing to fear.

05 Mar 2018 12:46:35
They will come out and give it a go. But that being said it will only play into our hands as they're defensively weak and they'll leave themselves exposed. Which is more reason to me why Odsonne and Moussa should start together.

05 Mar 2018 18:10:44
Murty is just cheering because he's a bhoyhood Celtic fan and he gets the chance to watch the Celtic again, he comes from a good Celtic supporting family, i used to go to the games with his cousins Kevin and Michael Murty, Michael sadly passed away with cancer last year.

05 Mar 2018 00:27:23
I'll agree with your team Rich T. I fully expect Celtic to hump that mob. Nothing else to be said.

05 Mar 2018 10:57:21
Listen if we play to our best or close to our best then we should be winning the game. But all this we will pump them blah blah is a lot of nonsense. We haven’t been great this year, it will be a tough game. Rodgers must beat Murty this time.
