Sickens me to see the politicians climbing on the Rangers bandwagon, declaring this as an historic night for the Scottish nation. Get fucked Salmond. Get fucked Brown. opportunist bastards!

Sorry...just to add...Smith's setting out the standard 4-1-4-1 formation so expect a very defensive mindset from the Huns.

Got to be honest, I hate the bigotry that envelopes both Old Firm clubs...but I think destiny has already ordained a Rangers victory. Ho hum...

But a deal with Pompey was nearly done at one point as well. So Sorin has been linked with Bolton and Portsmouth you say...hmmm...I wonder if BBC Panorama know about this...

They've got an awful lots of players with accents in their names, haven't they? Racist! ¡Nò fúçkìñg wày! It's all Dutch to me.

Miaow. Saucer of milk for table two please...

Aye, but whenever he came on the TV to do the post-match interview, I was always wondering "Where the fuck is Dick Dastardly then?"

Terrible news. Very sad for all involved - RIP.

It was good enough for Lineker. It was good enough for Wenger. Why not Owen as well? If it meant we recouped our losses/outlay etc and got shot of a bad apple in terms of the negative effect he's possibly had on morale with his egocentric narcissistic ways, then good. f*** off Micky. Tata! Hasn't all evidence coming from the club been the opposite of this? Chris Mort even said Owen has had a wonderful effect on the dressing room as captain. New signing Kadar said in an interview that Owen was nothing like he expected of a major international start. All evidence from people who have actually met Michael Owen is that he's not any sort of "big time Charlie" and is actually very grounded, very friendly, and quite popular amongst his fellow players. I'm assuming you've not actually met Michael Owen, so I'll take the word of those who have, thanks muchly. If this last run of games is Owen sowing dissension among the ranks, I'll take it. The last ten matches, barring Everton, showed a real team spirit amongst the players, which I was very happy to finally see back at Newcastle. Huffy. I did say "possibly" - and it was purely conjecture on my part that perhaps he had the propensity to be as much a force for negativity as positivity...but your points are all well-made and I agree it's been good to see more team spirit back in the past few weeks.

LucaAltieri on form tonight like!

Much like many others, tbh.

Shit, everyone I am just so incredibly sorry...didn't realise Keegan was making a joke when he made that comment. He's a comedy genius, tbh.

Yes. What a pity. You'll have to change your avatar.

Right, right...I get the message. So fucking sorry, by the way.

Manchester United - I would have thought it was obvious?

That phrase: and his overall interview demeanour, voice and body language suggests to me (and yes I concede it's all down to personal interpretation) a man who is somewhat ill at ease with the current set up and he's probably still getting shit from certain quarters within the squad - this problem has been going on for so long now it's beyond a joke and nobody's been able to root out the cancer. Or I may just be over-reacting a bit. It has been known.

Aye, but it was Dyer, Butt and Parker this time last year... and Jenas, Faye and Boumsong before that...

You see that post-match interview KK said some odd things...well, it was more about how he said them and what he didn't say but a rough transcript of the interview that's on the BBC website shows up some slightly concerning issues, I think...but when asked if he'd could assure fans he'd still be in place to see through the summer transition: "I can definitely assure them of that. As the statement said it was a very good meeting, and it's one that we had to have...so, I'm not going to elaborate on that cos you know...what happened in that room between the five, six of us, whatever it was, I can't remember the numbers, it was a good meeting. "And I told the players - it might disappoint them, but - I'm still here...and I'm gonna be here and I want to take this club back up the table with the players and the staff I've got... *hesitates a bit then says "I've got a very good staff here now, they work hard, so...why not?..." Trouble at mill, I think...

Whatever turns you on...

Would love it if people could all be a bit more specific about who the crap/overpaid/deadwood individuals in the squad are...I mean, just how big a clearout are folk envisaging?

Didn't we do that last year?
