Interesting reading, my boys team (2013s) were separating the boys into 2 groups, the good players and the rest. My boy was in the 2nd group, and I never had a problem with that (there wasn’t a 3rd group (copyright John Gaghan)). They stopped doing that, think some parents were grumbling about it, but I thought it was better to let the weaker players play together at their own level and build their confidence, some of them improved significantly with the extra time on the ball etc, rather than them daisy picking while the better players played around them. I can see the politics and trying to keep everyone happy is an absolute minefield. Fair play to all the folk that give up their time to do it.

Fair point. 😂 I’ve been quite enjoying the Wednesday night 6pm KOs 🍻 Made allowances for the conditions, but it wasn’t pretty, some good signs in the Celtic game and some positive results against County and United. Alexander has a decent CV as far as I can see, although perhaps the brand of football is why things turn so quickly? Robinson had a dreadful habit of just “bringing in bodies” so you also need to make some allowances for that squad. If you take the accies game out we’ve taken a point off Rangers, been unlucky not to get a draw with an improving Celtic and lost to Aberdeen, but beaten Ross County, Dundee United and Killie. Compared to the relegation form we were in, it’s better.m, I’ll worry about our style next season.

Definitely been an upturn in form since he came in, but the 1st half on Saturday was as bad as anything under Robinson. Given the early red card etc. we did improve in the second half, but we still look like we have guys who are sleepwalking through games and take a rocket to waken them up. There’s probably 5 or 6 1st team players I’d keep in the summer and most of them will likely be off (Gallagher, Campbell, Kelly and O’Donnell). Accies for whatever reason seem to do really well against us. It’s maybe because it means more to them? 😜

Rangers have been a bit less formidable recently, you could look at it as them taking their foot off the gas slightly, or wonder if Celtic had managed to put any sort of pressure on them could they have collapsed like previous seasons? I have to reluctantly admit Gerrard is doing a great job, and you can see genuine progress, but I’d like to have seen if they would have coped if Celtic had managed to close the gap.

I see the bigger picture, and I’m sure you were one of many signalling the alarm bells at the lazy appointment of Lennon. You’ve lorded it over Scottish football for 9 years though, so we will all get a chuckle at the utter Timplosion going on. I think it’s too late now, unless Celtic can bring in someone who can hit the ground running, Martin O’Neill? I don’t know if Eddie Howe could adjust quickly enough to save 10iar? (Or if he’d want to?)

We’ve not won a cup in 31 years, anyone up for storming the fir Park gates tomorrow? 😂

Getting the Sandaza treatment?

My observation on Celtic is they seem to see Turnbull as a long term replacement for Brown. If that’s what they were after, they should’ve probably signed Alan Campbell. 🤷‍♂️

It was a bad cut, guy probably left a bit on him deliberately, can see how at full speed ref didn’t see much. Could’ve been a yellow card. 🤷‍♂️ Did Morelos not kick someone in the balls, stand on someone’s back and flick someone’s balls all in one game without getting a yellow card?

I would argue the opposite. He gets away with plenty. Morelos is constantly involved in niggles and off the ball incidents. Opposition players also single him out, as they know they can get him in bother.

Started after his 1st league game at pittodrie, with the “its been going on for years” 😂

I don’t entirely disagree, although I think it’s specific to insinuating bias against Rangers or Rangers players rather than criticising the decision. I think that is crossing a line? Gerard also has previous for such (frankly ridiculous) comments.

There’s been a statement! 😂 🚨 https://www.rangers.co.uk/article/club-statement/7mtA6fDgbydfqBb7qyU30N

I believe the original was called ”STV reporting rangers in administration” or similar? I remember, because I’m obsessed. 😜

If Celtic are looking for a Scott Brown replacement, they’re buying the wrong Motherwell player.
