Alfredo called up

[Gibraltar Loyal]

Ah well the whole 'football is nothing without fans' (expect boxing day) thing has worked out fantastically for the scum.
They really do have Scottish football stitched up.

 

[SuperAlly1990]

Surely we and them can't request for the Old Firm to be postponed and have the games either side of it going ahead, would you not need 3 games to be called off?

 

[Now and forever]

I could see both sides of the old firm pressing the SFA to be honest, even with Kyogo injured as opposed to being called up - they’ll want their strongest team.

I can’t see this going ahead on the Wednesday.

One club will need 3 away

 

[Bluepixie]

If both sides have 3+ players away on international duty it will become a game of who blinks first and requests a postponement. The winner gets the moral highground.

 

[BillStruthBear]

We're fkd

 

[Div1872]

The sleekit scum are a total embarrassment

Getting the winter break brought forward due to injuries and wanting to sign new players

They are a disgusting organisation

The SPL won’t postpone fixtures if The Diver s back to full fitness

 

[VGM]

Worked a treat for them. They snap their fingers and get what they want and it has come up trumps for them, as it always does.

 

[Main Stand]

Does he ever get a game for Colombia?

Only started a couple games, new manager doesn’t really fancy him but the couple before him at least gave him minutes.

 

[MCKAY72]

So Arfield, Sands, Aribo, Roofe and Morelos could all be away?

Is that right?

Arfield has retired for International football

 

[BrooklynBlue]

I expect Sands and Roofe to be called up aswell.

Get it cancelled.

If Roofe goes, I'd be rather annoyed. Injured and then heading across the world missing vital domestic games.

 

[GimmeShelter]

Absolutely brilliant, the mentally challengeds have played a blinder here and we sat back and took it.

 

[Gramps1]

…….Sakala
Kent……….Roofe

Roofe will be away with Jamaica

 

[PT98]

Roofe injured constantly and Sakala never played as a striker more a winger, we need strikers.

And Itten is unproven

 

[ekbear98]

We can’t unless Roofe also gets called up to make 3 and let’s be honest it would be rejected anyway .

Case can be made that they’d of been available for the match if they break that we didn’t even vote in favour of didn’t get brought forward

 

[govanfront85]

So Arfield, Sands, Aribo, Roofe and Morelos could all be away?

Is that right?

Arfield has retired from canada

 

[Henry2510]

Blow Morelos is away and 100% agree the game should have been played 2nd of January but we’re a better club than that lot so we can’t act like them and ask for postponement

 

[BWO]

If Roofe goes, I'd be rather annoyed. Injured and then heading across the world missing vital domestic games.

And then coming back injured

 

[BobbyShearer]

This mob must be laughing their little snidey bollocks off.

Although give them their due, they’ve done their best to make 56 every bit as sweet as last year, the loathsome cheating bastards.

 

[Blue Phoenix]

So Arfield, Sands, Aribo, Roofe and Morelos could all be away?

Is that right?

Is it not three from the same country though?

 

[Bluerhap]

Time for a hero. Step up Sakala or Itten.

 

[Bouncy]

Got to trust Sakala and Itten then, hopefully Roofe is back by then

The bigger blow is if Aribo is absent, last night showed, yet again, just how devoid of ideas and invention we are without him.

 

[Ray Von]

He’ll play a total of about 7 minutes we should refuse him going away.

Representing his country is his dream. All we'd get by refusing him to go is him being pissed off and uninterested in games.

 

[Boab4]

We are done

Unless the board find reinforcements

We aren't done ya lunatic

 

[LeithGer]

Surely we and them can't request for the Old Firm to be postponed and have the games either side of it going ahead, would you not need 3 games to be called off?

This is a point some people have been missing for weeks. Can’t just pick and choose which game

 

[CaptainCourageous]

Sakala or Itten.

%^*& sake.

 

[david1982]

Hopefully Sands as well or Nigeria getting to the semis of AFCON and that would take us to the 3 that would allow us to cancel the game.

It still has to be sanctioned by the SPL

 

[Northglasgow]

This is turning into a joke
We could end up missing our best players for the tim game
And we’re doing absolutely nothing to strengthen in this transfer window

 

[The Pontiac Bandit]

If Roofe goes, I'd be rather annoyed. Injured and then heading across the world missing vital domestic games.

He is back in training, so I would 100 percent expect him to be fit enough to be called up.

Then it's on him.

 

[Gramps1]

Itten might actually trouble the opposition defence.

I thought Morelos’ link up play was good last night but he never caused Bates or Mccrorie a single problem.

Agreed
And we had guys saying Morelos would terrorise Bates aswell.

 

[DeeGer10]

I can't remember and old firm game that's not had someone significant missing in a long time.

 

[Ray Von]

Surely we and them can't request for the Old Firm to be postponed and have the games either side of it going ahead, would you not need 3 games to be called off?

Exactly. There's no time for them to be played at a later date for one thing.

Gio has already said we'll just be getting on with it anyway.

 

[PT98]

Surely we and them can't request for the Old Firm to be postponed and have the games either side of it going ahead, would you not need 3 games to be called off?

That's correct. There's no chance they're requesting postponements now. They smell blood

 

[I believe in Eli]

Think we got word this might happen which is why Itten is back.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

And Itten is unproven

That's the thing he still needs more games to see if he comes good.

 

[Rab_bear]

We need to quickly buy some dud international for 6 months who is guaranteed to get called up

 

[hms]

We’ll this thread has brought out the bheasts

 

[BSPECIAL]

Let's not make excuses before th e games being played. It's up to the other players to stand up and be counted. If he knew he was getting called up yesterday he could have done brown a serious injury and served his suspension play for his country.

 

[Boab4]

He’ll play a total of about 7 minutes we should refuse him going away.

Aye then he wouldn't be allowed to play for us

 

[PT98]

That's the thing he still needs more games to see if he comes good.

He should never have been sent out on loan. Defoe was never in the plans, Sakala too raw and Roofe injury prone.

Madness but we have Gerrard to think for that

 

[Main Stand]

Aye then he wouldn't be allowed to play for us

Totally forgetting about the Fifa sanctions

 

[TN8]

Still a chance Aribo could be back is there not?

So at the moment only 1 confirmed for us and none for the filth.

 

[Xtal]

From pre-season to now our luck has been genuinely fucking horrific.

I’m lost for words at this point, the only team to come out of a break worse off, course it’s us!!!

 

[super_sasa]

Arfield should’ve held off officially retiring to give us the option of postponing.

 

[Blueranger45]

is he actually going to play? probably a waste to go halfway across the world and watch somebody else be the striker

notice Zapata isn't there, is he injured or did they finally realise he's not great for them? 4 goals in 34 games, what a record

 

[super_sasa]

Still a chance but unlikely given Nigeria’s favourable knockout draw.

Still a chance Aribo could be back is there not?

So at the moment only 1 confirmed for us and none for the filth.

 

[Sheik Ma Shammy]

He should never have been sent out on loan. Defoe was never in the plans, Sakala too raw and Roofe injury prone.

Madness but we have Gerrard to think for that

Yes, was stupid Itten never stood a chance as Gerrard bought him then wanted shot off him.

 

[Leopold]

Alfie never plays for them though. Surely sensible thing would be to leave him at Ibrox

Colombia don’t give a f*ck about our fixtures

 

[Main Stand]

is he actually going to play? probably a waste to go halfway across the world and watch somebody else be the striker

He’s injured.

Conveniently in time for Newcastle to bid £30m for him.

 

[148bear]

My days just got worse

 

[Japandroid]

This is turning into a joke

Alfie got called up 10 minutes ago. Did you expect a replacement to be announced already?

I can't see us signing new players just because of international call ups either tbh, regardless of which games are affected.
