Official Rangers v Celtic Thread

Dont you dare say that!

 

well we are just gonnae need to pray that wgs and peter lawell can get a few names in on the 1st.hopefully hinkel and mcfadden,does anybody know the latest on the brazillian boy.Coelho i think?

 

I would even settle for Barry Robson than Sno getting a game.

 

Riordan was average to say the least on Saturday against Gretna, so it's a worry that he'll be starting on Wednesday. With Brown and Riordan on the wings we'd lack proper ability to get down the line and whip in a cross; both players would want to cut inside all the time. Personally I'd start Sno instead of Donati as Donati kept on giving the ball away and getting robbed of the ball on Saturday; Sno is a safer option.

 

I hear that Coelho doesnt fit the criteria for getting a work permit! unless he has a European granny or something i don't think it will happen!

 

SNO!

 

Even if we do get names in on the 1st, it's highly unlikely that they'd play any part in the Rangers match. We'll be all right with what we've got for the minute. Riordan and Brown, although they're not wingers, will do all right. As long as we make no silly errors and McDonald is lively, we'll win. Optimistic is best way to go about things.

 

You having a laugh about Sno before Donati?

 

Donati was very poor against Gretna - giving the ball away et al. Sno can be no worse.

 

sno absolutely useless. Massimo has a touch of class at times and that could be the key

 

Well let's hope, if Strachan goes with him on Wednesday, that he produces some of his class moments.

 

Sno is on a poorer form the now than Donati mate, our midfield would get ripped apart if he plays imo, between Balde and Sno i could see a penalty being giving as there to slow, the best we can put out in midfield would be..

Brown--Hartley--Donati--Riordan
​

 

i hate the idea of brown on the right, we need his driving runs through the middle

 

trying to work out what date the game will be rescheduled for..

It surely has to be played before the Ibrox game on the 29th March..

Only 2 weekends are free between now and then and those are - Saturday 2nd February and Saturday 8th March..

I can't see any International matches scheduled for those weekends but have a feeling Scottish Cup games are due to be played on both dates..

That would mean it's likely we play the huns at Parkhead on a Wednesday night..

Checking through the BBC's fixture lists the only realistic dates are these..

wed 16th january
wed 23rd january
wednesday 6th february
wednesday 12th march
wednesday 19th march
wednesday 26th march

not sure but think the huns are due to play Gretna on wed 16th january , although the BBC says they have no game that night and think Hutton will be banned if it gets played on the 23rd January.

How do bannings work ? Is Mcgeady now free from a ban or will he automatically misses our next SPL game (As it stands our next SPL game will be against Kilmarnock at Parkhead on Saturday 19th January)

Can't see the game against the huns at Parkhead getting played on wednesday 19th march or wednesday 26th march because that's only a week before we play them at Ibrox..

using my powers of guessing I think it will be one of these 3 dates.

wed 23rd january
wednesday 6th february
wednesday 12th march

Does anyone think this game has to be played on a weekend ?..

I suppose they could play it on one of the Saturdays mentioned above and switch the respective Scottish cup games to the midweek

 

Boruc
hinkel-macmanus-o'dea/balde-naylor
naka-brown-donati-mcgeady
jan voh-skippy

i think all this team can rise up to the occasion

im normally a critic of balde but he seems to know how to handle the huns

maybe have jarosik ready to come on if one midfield fails to show the flair they all can

as for strikers, who else do we have???

 

The dates in January are to soon i think and the one in March means the 2 old firms are not that far from each other, as i said before i think it will be Feb 6th

 

Feb 6th i heard alright once we both win in the cup

 

it might be a midweek game + they are deciding next week when it will be played

 

Of course it will be a midweek game

 

you never know
