James Forrest’s cross for Odsonne Edouard’s equaliser yesterday was like a goal from the Martin O’Neill era, when so much of our play was about getting crosses to drop in front of goal. It contrasts with the ball across the face of goal, or pulled back, which we more commonly see today. The difference in styles reflects the difference in personnel, but it often takes variation to prise open a packed defence.
While Odsonne continues to grab the headlines, James’ has an equal claim to the Most Valuable Player title. He was relentless yesterday.
Fair play to Kilmarnock, their 6-3-1 formation required a couple of exceptional goals to break their resolve. They will do all right this season, or at least, better than their early results suggested.
Six games, six wins, 21 goals for and four against is impressive form. We won two from our opening six last season, scoring only six goals. The same this season would have Newco in the kind of frenzy not seen since their Petrofac Cup win. While we bossed them at Ibrox, they are hanging in there. Both teams will be taxed between now and Christmas as the Europa League group stage progresses.

Boris is down and OUT…Surely ?
I wonder if ALL ELEVEN Supreme Court Judges were wearing the Hoops under their clothes when deciding that Johnson was OFFSIDE…Big Time……
NO need for VAR in this case LOL.
Bye Bye Boris.

A question that has been rattlin’ round my brain for a while now..
Who is the most annoying smarmy wee scrote in the media?
Is it:
a) Walker
b) Nicholas
c) McCann
I can only imagine that most if not ALL the Supreme Court Judges are Tory voters ?
Tory on Tory Action….Magic !
Almost as good as watching Hun on Hun Action…is there a difference ?
When Lizzie took BJ’s advice….did she not have legal advisors at the ready ?

A tough question indeed but McCann shades it for me.
The race of the 3 Scrotes,would always end in a photo finish.Just too close to call.
McCann by several lengths for me

I could not play One/Twos with a Wall…We couldnt afford a Wall in the East End…..Only Joking Lol !
I was probably too greedy to Play One/Two’s with a wall or anyone, as once I had those Hoops on…I became an OVERSIZE Jinky !
Thx for your post.

………..
Too close to call maybe….We are gonna need a Bigger VAR for that one !
HH
Test
McCann for me is the worst although..the other two Chumps being Ex Celts I can understand why folk would say Nicholas or Walker ?
HH
what’s the difference between unlawful and illegal?
Unlawful – break a law of the land
Illegal – a big sick bird….
Too close to call for me too
Nicholas possibly
I am NOT trying too appear clever etc…but how can anyone really be surprised at anything that Boris Johson says or does, as he has a History of telling LIES……and not just talking PASH !
HH
God Bless Gina Miller…and what a Babe into the bargain !
She is just my height and weight LOL
