[No.8]

Nah, your teams forced their 'B' team into the lowland league particularly for a pathway to the first team, still won't do it. Any young Scottish player who sticks out at other clubs end up being signed be either and their career stagnates and stutters until they move on again, with very few exceptions.

Anyway, I see Mr Collum came to Rangers rescue yet again last night, needing his help to beat Ayrshire's 6th best club. Always the same...The A*r players should have walked off!!

Collum denied Rangers two penalties in the first 20 minutes! One was a bit iffy but the challenge on Cortes I just can’t see any argument against it

Goldson was a stick on Red if he’d made contact. Shocking challenge.

Neither of Silvas challenges were even yellows

Sorry but it’s Hearts and Celtic with B teams in the Lowland league. They didn’t ‘force’ their way in.

As for signing standouts at other Scottish clubs. Are you joking? We’ve missed out on Lewis Ferguson as we can’t see what’s right in front of our faces!!

Big increase in wrong VAR calls, finds review panel

Thirteen decisions are deemed incorrect by the Scottish FA's VAR independent review panel during the second round of Premiership fixtures.

I see in the so called VAR mistakes they highlight the Cifuentes Red card should not have been reviewed and yellow card should have stood. Absolutely no problem and agree with that. The problem I have is Rangers appealed that straight Red and the appeal was thrown out!

Don't really understand the point of the report. The decisions will still remain subjective. Be interested to know which "experts" make up the panel and which clubs the ex pros have played for/support.

I agree. For me it just muddies the water!

Next round we are going to have the Sterling Red and the St Mirren Red reviewed (in my opinion) and both appeals were rejected!

The McCausland penalty I’d agree was probably not but the Sima v Dundee is a stonewaller!

Waste of everyone’s time!

On a brighter note I thought the referee last night in the Rangers v County game was excellent. He let the game go and was lenient with both teams.

You feeling ok? That trip to the doctor's is working wonders =)

40 odd shots I seen. Busy Ross County goalie.

Motherwell Aberdeen draw suits Killie. We've a few difficult games coming up now starting this weekend, more draws involving teams between St Mirren and Aberdeen as they currently stand in the league the better.

Cheers. I’d honestly forgotten my meds but just took them. : )))

I didn’t even mention the Souttar handball you claimed nobody but paranoid Rangers supporters were moaning about lol

I’ve rewatched the Sima penalty v Dundee and I honestly cannot see how it can be anything but a penalty. He’s holding his shirt and as Sima goes to jump the defender tugs his arm.

We all saw at the weekend in the rugby that honest mistakes will always be there it’s just I would have hoped that obvious mistakes would be a thing of the past. Unfortunately they are still there
