Match Thread Rangers v FK Shkupi - 19:45 Thursday 12th - BT Sports

[Kimarcus]

Our potential opponents drawing 0-0 at HT in Moldova. You'd still expect the Croatians to get through that tie.

 

[_BlueNose_]

Subs: Alnwick, John, Jack, Docherty, Halliday, Ejaria, Middleton

 

[Al Needham Loyal]

Buzzing for this.

Unfortunately starting work at 8 so won't see much. 4 goals before 8 would do nicely, then I can relax.

 

[Iain04]

Hopefully put the tie to bed with a big win tonight

 

[GodStruth]

Looking at the subs - Wes is defo for the off - has to be

Think we'll come out the traps fast in this one. Got a few quid on us winning by 15 minutes so lets hope we're both happy by 8pm

 

[Godrup99]

50 monutes to decide a bet here thats actually worth bothering with!

 

[TN8]

Bollocks, just been told the boozer over here isn't showing the game. All booked out for meals tonight.

 

[Gary Mitchell]

I know there's been a ton of fitba on with the world cup but that's Mickey mouse compared to this, Mon the Gers 5-0 WATP.

 

[welshbear80]

Can not believe Andy Halliday is still involved

I have a feeling he's going to be our new version of Christian Dailly. Every league winning team seems to need one is the way I'm spinning it

 

[Barbarossa]

Serious lack of striking options going by that bench.

I’d expect us to bring in another striker, at least one more after Sadiq.

50 monutes to decide a bet here thats actually worth bothering with!

Coral: Morelos to score, Rangers 4+ goals, Rangers 7.5+ corners, Shkupi 25+ booking points - 9.50 (17/2)

 

[The Lone Sniper]

At last, proper football.

 

[Calico Jack]

On call tomorrow night, if my phone goes some c*by is getting stabbed, lol.

lol, with your Avatar I almost believe you

 

[Skoosh1872]

I would have had young Rudden on the bench. No sure of the point of 4 midfielders and no backup striker? If Alfie gets injured early we’re reliant on Windass or Murphy?

Been looking at stupid shite like this on sky bet!

 

[Netherburntrueblue]

Stuck over in Turkey waiting for my taxi to the airport so won't even get to watch the game on TV. Flights not till late so I will be glued to this site to get updates of the score . Hopefully a good lead to take to the away game. 4-0 #55

SG must see Ejaria as able to play in the front 3. It's the only explanation I can see.

 

[mendes]

Thought I heard raman on STV sport apologising for our supporters.. why?

 

[DocStone]

At times it seems we have to apologise just for f*cking existing.

Toss a couple of cockroaches under the tables ... sorted

 

[The Predator]

I notice potato mcginn has been left out of hibs squad this evening...I wonder why

Annoys me we don’t put some fake bids in

 

[Davidsmith1]

He didn't he apologised if anyone heard any foul language. He didn't say anything about Rangers supporters.

 

[The Predator]

Annoys me we don’t put some fake bids in

I think we should have made an attempt but then he is a potato so probably informed he wouldn't come anyways. But that's a diff thread. Just passing on what I noticed

 

[ayemckay]

 

[JD1872]

Can you imagine if it was us trying to sign him, they would be ensuring he played to cup tie him. There would also be statements accusing us of low bids and unsettling the player.

Strange there has been none of that

 

[Jacrispy]

Can not believe Andy Halliday is still involved

I don’t want to sound like a dick, but it terrifies me seeing his name in our match day squad. He shouldn’t be here in any capacity.

 

[Realger34]

He has his suit on, few on here will be happy

 

[nelster]

The Shkupi equivalent of the Union Bears 12 strong in directors box

 

[BrownBrogues]

Watching the warm up. Not a lot of height in this mob. Fancy Katic or Goldson from a corner.

 

[The_Irrepressibles]

Kenny Miller on BT Sport.... interesting!!!

 

[Polar bear]

Can not believe Andy Halliday is still involved

Obviously SG sees a valuable asset for his bench,as I do also.

 

[JD1872]

Osijek 1 up now

 

[Godrup99]

Morelos, windass and tavernier to score, 12 + corners and 50+ booking points!

Yeah, im still up on world cup winnings!

 

[The Predator]

Loving the staunch orange programmes on the BT sport presenter table

 

[Scrubs UK]

The %^*& is Kenny Miller doing on BT Sports

 

[The Predator]

I think it's telling though with the Flan at left back. Also the correct decision for me. John should be backup and not first choice as his stats are poor defensively

 

[justbrowsing]

Eilidh Barbour too.

Isn’t she BBC Gollum’s other half?

 

[yarrumdavid01]

Kenny Miller on BT Sport.... interesting!!!

Funk sake what’s he doing on.

 

[nelster]

Famous last words

Watching Shkupi drills, Scottish League 1 standard

 

[Commodore Carbuncle]

Kenny Miller on BT Sport.... interesting!!!

Three ‘bears’ on BT Sport, fackin hell

 

[Cooper11]

At work. This on any radio stations?

 

[Commodore Carbuncle]

Eilidh Barbour too.

Doing her best to look like Courtney Cox

 

[Polar bear]

As I sai

Other interesting talking point ... Alnwick on the bench. [edit: confirming Fod's position as surplus to requirements]

Fod is no.4 on our goalie chart,and rightly so.​

 

[Cutty/Young]

Quite ironic the BBC refuse to send anyone to report on our games and there we have skeletors girlfriend standing on the touchline working for BT and also works for the BBC

 

[Jacrispy]

Interesting that Gerrard thinks the decision to throw McCrorie in a regular at centre half last season was “careless”.

 

[Godrup99]

Wee swipe at last season re mccrorie there from gerrard.

 

[Realger34]

Kenny Miller on BT Sport.... interesting!!!

Kevin thomson and Charlie Adam as well.

Good to see a mentally challenged free zone.
