Glasgow Science Tower come in, your time as the dominating force in Clydeside loftiness is up! Celtic are threatening to unleash no less than ‘the next Peter Crouch‘ on the green city. At only 19, young Ulsterman Kyle Lafferty has already notched up seven caps for Norniron. And he’s 6′4”. Crouch, of course, had a […]

A national team in crisis. Outrage from the terraces. Witless administrators. Qualifying hopes tarnished.
Yep, Berti Vogts‘ appointment as Nigeria manager was always going to be contentious.
As for his old job, well, unlike the appointment of himself and Walter Smith, the SFA are wasting no time in hunting down the new man. With one eye […]

Good weekend for…
Steven Pressley - Elvis’ former devotees turned deviant, welcoming him onto the pitch and proceeding to boo him from the first kick onwards. He promptly shut them up with a solid performance in a great match.

Guess who’s back? It seems that, in football, inserted in the contracts of every controversial transfer is the clause that the player must return for a game sharpish. No less so in the case of a certain S. Pressley, with just two games under his belt in the green and white of Celtic. He will […]

The most protracted appointment since the days of Sweeney Todd has finally taken place and, to be frank, nobody really emerges with much credit from it all.
First of all, for all their efforts to keep Walter Smith on board, the SFA blazers have been found seriously wanting in the nation’s hour of need. Yes, given […]

Good weekend for…
Stephen Kenny - As predicted, Rangers dominate the headlines. As not predicted, Dunfermline supplied the ink. So this is what winning feels like.
Paul Mathers - Arguably the story of the weekend. As manager, he took Peterhead to last season’s playoffs only to be sacked a few months later. Making his professional debut between […]

Needless to say, all sorts of rumours flying around this morning surrounding a certain managerial vacancy. Walter Smith and Ally McCoist - the sorcerer and his apprentice from Rangers’ 90s heyday - are being bandied about by everyone and his wife. Indeed, the only question seems to be over their roles.
