The world looked so different for Scottish Football League chief executive, David Longmuir, back in March. He convinced half of the member clubs to reject a deal which would earn them considerably more money next season, while enjoying the accolades of Rangers International chief exec, Charles Green.
Green remains a controlling director of Rangers International, but Longmuir’s actions infuriated First Division clubs, who have now applied to join the SPL, furious at his attempts to subvert them earning what many see as crucial income next season.
To suggest Longmuir acted in the interests of one Third Division club to the considerable detriment of all First Division clubs would be stating the obvious. These shenanigans still go on in Scottish football, even now, after all that happened last year, but it is reassuring that the overwhelming majority of voices have, again, said, ‘On your (boardroom) bike’. We are rapidly becoming one of the least corrupt countries football is played in the world. Good luck to all in the First Division.
I read the leaked document, Rangers (sic): the way forward, yesterday afternoon. It was so ludicrously lacking in anything which remotely resembled substance I assumed the leak was an attempt to discredit Charles Green. Then I heard BBC’s Chris McLaughlin say it was Green himself behind the leak. The fact that the Rangers International director categorically recognised the club is lumbered with a lame manager hardly passes for insight. The document was embarrassingly inept.
“The team will work for each other and press the opponents when not in possession.
“Most of all, players will come off the park knowing that they have done their best.”
In a high-level policy document this is cringeworthy.

Dylan indecisive on break when he had Watt left
Great run Dylan no one moving for him…
To be fair that wasn’t a goal.
McGeough good run but our standing still style of play offers no support
McGeoch and Commons seem to be tripping over each other all the time, they seem to want to occupy the same space.
Not sure they’re suited for playing together.

Young Watt is excellent

Tony is a real prospect. ;)
Commentator has X-ray vision!
Lustig blocks cross and is barged off ball but RC gets benefit
How often do you see the decision made in favour of an RC player?
Mon the Hoops……. Give us a goal
Kojo – without a doubt,John Stein stated likewise.But that isn’t sport or fair play.
Why should we have to beat teams 3-0 every game,just to legislate for cheathing match officials?

……and he’s an erse….
Wohlfarth close with a header
RC head past post
Nobody in our defence challenged
We’re no playing very well….
We really need to become a proactive team.Our style of play is turgid and reactionary.
To much respect to mediocre opponents by our coaches
Stokes fouled and it is given
Must be an accumulation that triggered the award
Stokes Scored..
But..
Ah wid tak him off.. he is not Doing well.
Ah wid Pit Tony,in the Middle..

Kojo
Sproule again barging us off the ball
Pulling now allowed, it seems.
66 minutes in and it’s 1-1
We need a wee injection of desire
The referee wtf?
You know, The The Rangers would just tikkie takkie their total football right through this lot and that pitch as they tikkie takkied their way to the 2019 Champion’s League Trophy.
Moan The Hoops!
HH.
When teams press it leaves plenty space to exploit.
But you need movement and anticipation to counter something our coaches seem incapable of teaching.
Why is Zaluszka kicking the ball into the stand every time?
Rogic coming on
C’mon Celtic, get this game movin’
another poor performance from the tic
Celtic TV says Rogic is being called back
He will think he is on Bondi
Not a big fan of Zaluskas, but he’s had a good game. The MIB would be booed off in an amateur league game.
Snake
He’s trying to catch Lenny’s attention..?
rogic for commons
KC off to make way for Rogic

Third trip to Ross County this season, a game that means nothing, played on a rotten pitch and with so many first team players missing. No wonder is it poor.
Neither teams are doing much – commons off for rogic pitch can’t suit commons
