    QPR. I don't want any love from you. I have a happy enough, contented love life without an arse-hole like you
    trying to snuggle your way in. I think you have enough problems re-acquainting yourself with the Championship
    without giving have-baked opinions on something you know nothing about.
    That idiot with the lost password, I worry about you trying to keep up your pretence of supporting Celtic. I would love
    to see your views on a team you don't claim to support.

    dissapointed with Lennon's team....


    Cha has never started an Old Firm Game... why today?

    why not Matthews Rogne Mulgrew n Ledley

    Or even Wanyama up against McCulloch with Mulgrew at LB

    When Celtic lost Cha, why take of stokes? I would have taken off Wanyama who was in effective in Midfield.

    Too many players didn't play today and defoi missed Forrest!

    Celtic need to sign an experienced player or two - team very ypound and needs some older heads!

    2 - 0 to Rangers would have been a fair result...

    **** it... two games and league will be sown up.

    Mayo 0-13 - 0-14 Cork

    in Gaelic Football.

    Cork reduced to 14 men in the first half when Mark Collins was sent off.....I think for a punch. Down by 5 at one stage, the Leesiders showed their resiliance storming back to take the game with a superb point from the Ballydesmond club man Donncha O'Connor after Paudie Kissane had struck the upright.

    A magnificent win under the circumstances.

    to add my opinion, for what it's worth

    we started very poorly and they deserved to go one up, i thought our best time during the game was just after they scored. if we had kept 11 men on the pitch then i think we could have got something.

    didnt think cha was a sending off

    was having a pish when vic got sent off and not seen a replay so can't comment <wenger>

    always disapointing to lose against them but i can console myself and my hangover with the fact we are top of the league

    I enjoyed the game yesterday. It had a bit of everything.

    The ref must have left his yellow card at home. I thought the second and third red cards were probably yellows. Cha was just stupid and out of position, he had to go.

    The second one might have looked soft but anytime a player goes in two footed, regardless of whether he wins the ball, gets an automatic red card. That's the rules nowadays.

    See far worse given yellow cards this season. He was desperate to show red cards yesterday.

    It was two-footed and stupid no doubt. I just thought he might have shown a wee bit of discretion.

    How can he red card Bocanegra when he's not the last man? It was a levelling-the-score red and shows the mentality of refs in OF games.

    Cha - soft, but he's a **** and only has himself to blame for his poor positioning and spatial awareness (like he does every game)

    Wanyama - definite red

    Bocanegra - definite red as Samaras was about to take a shot, ergo it was a goalscoring opportunity. But how reluctant was that **** Murray to show a red card? I think he might even have apologised to Boca as he went off.

    Overall, Rangers deserved the win. They were hungrier and wanted it more.

    Too many Celtic players have switched off since the league was all but won and need a boot in the balls or they're going to end up missing out on the Scottish Cup as well.

    If it was me then I would have red carded Bocanegra. Last man has nothing to do with it. If he didn't take down Samaras then he would have had a clear shot on goal. Classed as denying an obvious goal scoring opportunity, although Samaras probably would have put it out for a throw in <ok>

    These bits <ok>

    How the **** was it a Rangers free kick when McCulloch elbowed Broon?

    The first Rangers goal was a cracker - from then until the sending off, Celtic had three decent chances and Rangers looked set to sit in.

    I'm no convinced Wallace was getting the ball for the first red card and I don't necessarily think Bocanegra's was a red - Murray had set the scene with two straight reds and had to follow suit, I reckon.

    Game was a bit of a farce after Wanyama's red.

    There's very little gloating from Huns in my work, surprisingly. I think they know that Rangers weren't really that impressive and never scored against ten men and scored twice against nine men (one of them on the break). Celtic started poorly and, I thought, actually organised quite well after the first red.

    In defence of Lennon's tactics, Samaras was causing them bother on the left and was coming inside for high balls - Stokes was also a big loss when he came off - I reckon the starting formation would've worked if it had been given a chance. My only beef was Cha starting - he's pish defensively and only gets in the team because he occasionally delivers a decent cross.

    I thought, under the circumstances, Celtic did OK.

    I was hoping the Huns would be delirious and this would paper over the cracks and give McCoist free reign to buy more McKays and Ortizs for the next few seasons - perhaps the comeback at the end was counter-productive :bandit:

    Cha got it all wrong defensively......again, bad positioning and then puts a hand on wallaces shoulder giving him the opportunity to go down like he`s had a coronary.

    Why is the QPR fan StinkmanBoke pretending to be a QPR fan?

    Bizarre :huh:

    So, you're saying the Rangers fans in your work are acting with dignity <ok>

    As for Super Ally, his management tenure may well prove to be a disaster, but he's the Greatest ever Ranger in my book.

    He's a class act.

    Anyone catch the pre-match interview with wee Wullie Henderson and Bertie Auld? How good was that?

    That's what this game should be about.

    Venom, You think highly of Ally and you are entitled to do so. However are you aware of the company he frequently kept with
    in Belfast the last time he was employed with Rangers. These people who he was happily photographed with were regarded
    at the time as probably the most dangerous sectarian gun men in Ulster. They were not the type of people that you would
    imagine a professional person with a large hero worshipping amongst young followers should be associated with.
