You could have guessed the entire content of the interview. 'Physical' was a euphemism for "dirty fouling ****s".
That wee ginger haired bas...d was managing for his future. McCall wants to inherit the ipox seat. Referee was a disgrace the number of times Celtic players were taken out as they broke from defence was unreal. Another example of all the bigotry and bias that exists in the SPL. M'well as quiet as lambs whilst playing Rangers but once they come up against Celtic they perform like wild animals with the referee's approval. Of course he gets his statistics right by sending off one of their animals after M'well have lost the game. We have never had fair play, but last season and this season in particular there is a combined effort to look after Rangers interests, Two good results back to back, hopefully Neil will soon have more to pick from.
Motherwell are celtics bogey team who always try harder and tackle dirtier - especially when ex huns are in charge ! So good result today with a battlin performance!
Be interesting to see how many fouls Motherwell actually commit against Rangers. , I would be surprised if it is even half the number they do against us . No wonder half our squad is out injured Meanwhile Steve Davis can play in his slippers in the spl, how many games has he missed in his 4 years in Scottish football .???The media wanted a manager sacked today , they got one , wrong green and white team though !!!!
Twenty today , did u see McCall interview today , gutted at getting beat unluckily he said , when his team regularly roll over to Rangers , he has the looks of a lottery winner!!!
Was thinking the same thing hh67 - I'm going to watch out for that game in particular, as a matter of interest, to see how much Motherwell 'get stuck in'!
When Celtic play M'well and Killie Hearts Dun Utd and Caley, not only do these teams raise their efforts to fever pitch but referees pick on these matches to go easy with fouls and cards. That is half the story the other half of the story is that when Rangers play any of the above teams it becomes a game or preserving themselves. Their managers warn them against becoming too much involved, and picking up cards or injuries that may deprive them from playing against teams were they have "a better chance" of picking up points. Just look at the league table, a self proclaimed poor Rangers team with a rookie manager and no losses in 14 games. Something strange.
As requested: Motherwell's games v Celtic and Rangers since McCall took over in January last year. v Rangers Rangers 6-0. fouls committed by Motherwell, 13 Rangers 5-0. fouls committed by Motherwell, 8 Rangers 3-0. fouls committed by Motherwell, 8 v Celtic Motherwell 2-0. fouls committed by Motherwell, 22 Celtic 4-0. fouls committed by Motherwell, 13 Celtic 3-0. fouls committed by Motherwell, 18 Celtic 2-1. fouls committed by Motherwell, 20 Average fouls per game v Rangers 9 v Celtic 18
Superhoops 2003 Chris Sutton had his say day !!!dunfermline at Ibrox meant to keep it tight , committed only 13 fouls 1 of which was in the box . Celtic at killie , somehow the HOME team committed 34 fouls one which broke Maloneys leg that went unpunished, Scottish football will never change if Rangers are involved
Interesting stats Dev. I'm not usually given to writing in the 'foul' vernacular but I think on this occasion I agree with Puds expression "Dirty amber barstewards"
