Another point for the Rock ( Dumbarton) I suppose I should be happy , but I'm afraid they are out of their depth in this division ( GD - 19 ! ) I really hope to get to see them this season.
Think the little R for relegation will be next to their name sooner rather than later

Such as "the sleekit wee remark to Lennon, and then running away". He went right up to Lennon and said something and certainly didn't run away. Some Celtic fans like to try to portray going straight up to someone and telling them something as some sort of sneaky act.
I suggest you watch it. He did.

Shown himself up plenty of times since then as well.

Anyway, one of the biggest issues you do have is that McCoist is stuck there. He is a hopeless, inept manager, and Green cannot get rid of him. Green needs him there, yet whilst he is there he will countinue to prove himself as a bad manager.

Long may he continue.

They could well play Rangers next year. I am having a look at the fixtures this year and I'm trying to see if I could visit my aunt and cousin around Xmas and see the Rock at the same time. My grandma used to live almost next door to the old Boghead ground

I don't think there's much debate abour Dumbarton being in the 2nd next season. Not so sure about Sevco though.

Please stop posting shite dressed up as facts ...

Green has been branded by many neutrals (and celtic fans) as simply pandering to the Rangers support - so by your logic once that support turns against Super Ally (which it has started to) then he will be out on his ear sharpish.

Hard to believe that Rangers lost to Stirling on Saturday.

I have to laugh at people calling for McCoist's head and condemning his managerial ability. He's been forced to make signings before the window closes and hasn't the money to attract anyone outside the 'goldfish bowl 'mentality.

Dean Shiels

Congratulations to Celtic for a great win in Moscow ... they deserved it.

Minor irritation, wasn't able to predict the scores this week but I'm sure the person responsible for my ban will be happy with the Man Utd score today.

Need I say more

Must have been difficult attracting good enough players on £7k a week to play in SFL3.

After all, the kind of players they play against need a second job to make a living.

So, what you are saying is that the players he was able to 'attract' were the players he would have 'chosen' to bring in?

What is the case is that that collection of players, including a number of clearly SPL standard players, should most certainly be able to be organised and motivated to be able to beat Division 3 teams away from home. 3 draws and then a defeat to the team then at the very bottom is extremely poor.

Meanwhile, they score plenty league goals at home, and can also beat both Falkirk and Motherwell at home in the League Cup.

In terms of this discussion, what exactly does that mean? Hearts should have been able to 'raise' their game to beat Celtic today ... they didn't. Celtic had a squad capable of beating Hearts by at least 5 goals, they didn't.

I think we're talking about the difference between "capable oif beating" and "should be beating" and most certainly should not be failing to beat in any of the first four away matches..
.
If you're happy though that the above equate and are happy with Rangers performances in Division 3 with that set of players then you just stay on the ride with Super Ally.

I doubt I'd be happy if I was a Rangers supporter, but I'm not and admit to some difficulty entering the mindset of some Rangers supporters, many of whom have taken "be in denial" to new unexplored lengths for much of this year..

Settle down.

I didnt report you so pack in the snide comments. Its one thing throwing accusations around in PMs, its another doing it on the forum. Maybe you should take a bit of your own advice and stick to PMs if you have something to say. For the record if i did report you I'd have no problems telling you but i didnt and i can count on the fingers of one hand the times i have reported people on this forum.

Sounds like Andre Blackman might have just blown his final chance at a football career.

There was a rumour over the weekend that he's done something and that Caley had sent him packing.

Now its been confirmed that they've terminated his loan deal with immediate effect.

Wonder what the 'something' is. Must be quite serious to be sent back.

Can he play for you now or is that him until the end of his loan deal?

Would the police be happy with that? There's no knowing when the Celtic fans will arrive for pre-match refreshments.

Our game against Aberdeen the following Saturday has stayed where it is, so your game against St Mirren is on the Sunday anyway. That means Thursday night can't be ruled out for you.

Stayed where it is for now, although Thursday, Sunday does a look a possible I suppose for United.

I am trying to think the last time there were two competitive games at Tannandice and Dens on the same day. I think it was the early 80s

It is expected that Kris Commons will be called up to the Scotland squad within the next 24 hours.
