Playing Rangers tomorrow. Let's go out and get pished, rather than prepare for the biggest game we are ever likely to play in If I turn up pished, the manager will still give me a game because there is no professionalism in the lower professional leagues
Aye, you're right. Lower league football players are well known for their professionalism and dedication to fitness and athleticism.
Where did I say that? I said his lack of games against professional footballers for the past 18 months is a legitimate concern. Isn't it? My point about other players who weren't getting a regular game was to accept that there are concerns about them too. But that does not detract from the fact that playing in the 3rd tier of scottish football (and in the previous season the 4th) is piss-poor practice for playing Belgium.
Mulgrew's not a natural LB but he's proved himself in the CL unlike some. Whittaker's not as good as Wallace but he's up against tougher opponents every week.
I've said before, players like Wallace (and Templeton when playing) should be included in the Scotland squad. They had talent at Hearts, so haven't lost it ... I'd rather a player playing week in week out was included rather than some diddy that can't even get a game.
Don't quote Pud, he just doesn't no anything about football. After what we have heard I would be reluctant to pick any of The Rangers players , because the old club Seemed to have a flexible arrangement with Mr Bryson re registering players. I seem to remember the Scottish Football 14 day rule for trialists was breeched eight times this summer. Now with Mr Lawwell on the Scottish Board with the Remit to ensure things are done right . Playing any The Rangers players would be Problematic.
