It took a late goal from Anthony Stokes to secure Celtic’s win at Tannadice in August. That led to a five match unbeaten run for Dundee United, which ended two weeks ago at Pittodrie before Inverness knocked 10-man United out of the League Cup on Tuesday with a 120th minute goal.
Jackie McNamara has stabilised his team and they are likely to finish in the top three this season, but the defeat on Tuesday, which led to a storm of controversy over the behaviour of Nadir Ciftci, will be a major challenge ahead of United’s trip to Celtic Park. The champions should win comfortably.
There was little glibness evident in The Herald’s sombre interview with Dave King, published this morning. Despite apparently getting along famously with antagonists on either of Rangers International shareholding, he was unable to reach a deal, perhaps because he didn’t speak to the Organ Grinder behind the club playing in Rangers colours.
Indeed, neither King, nor anyone else trying to oust, or do a deal with, the current board, knows the ultimate beneficiary behind Blue Pitch Holdings et al. Is it you? It’s not me, but I suppose that’s what everyone is saying right now.
That question, is the only show in town.
King wrapped up his comments to The Herald by saying “Over the last two years we have all witnessed the destructive value when individuals, who should be putting the club first, advance personal agendas through the media in an attempt to influence the most important stakeholder in Rangers Football Club – the fans”.
Self-awareness is a rare thing.
Mr King is 100% correct on the destructive influence those who have divided his new favourite club have had. Without the modestly self-named Blue Knights causing ultimately unproductive havoc, Charles Green’s consortium would surely not have over-paid and under-charged, leading to the situation King believes could lead to administration. The question now for those on the outside is, do they have the votes, or are they just peeing on the Broxy Bear Burgers?

“However, that’s it. My work here is done and I’m glad – but just for the record, I’ve not been sacked or made redundant. I was asked to remain but my conscience won’t allow me to stay in our profession.
The kind of journalism needed by the country, never mind sport, no longer exists in enough of the media outlets.”

More good news
Stuart McColl gets a meeting with the head ( sure there should be a four letter word beginning with d in there first ) of referees because they get a goal chopped off .
We should be speaking to this guy every week for the crap we have to put up with.
Missus has got SSB on in the kitchen making dinner (honest). Just spat ma Chateau-neuf-de-Pape across the room at some mentalist zombo TWICE call the Lying King a “man of honour”. Brilliant. Just brilliant.
They’re doomed.

Good evening friends in Celtic.
Everyone chilled? Even you DougC and Goldstar10, pair of cheeky bampots.
S2S your words this afternoon accepted and all now in the past.
Is anyone going to the meeting in the Kerrydale Suite on the 21st November about the relocation of seats for Champions League games?
Surely at some point one must just shut the Manky Mob down for good. Men of integrity? Dignity? What was that Daily Retard headline, “Thugs and Thieves”?

A fat slug can never survive long in a best of vipers. Seriously, if someone as slippery as Jabba can’t make it over Sevco way they must be a most horrible shower of bad people, just delicious! Another round of ice cream, push the boat out on some Green & Blacks
They’re now screeching that it would be “bad for Rangers image” to go into administration again!!!!!!
Image?!?!?!
Surreal stuff.
At this rate I’m gonnae be mangled by 8 o’clock.
