Here is a wee question for all you bears. Do we all think that McLaughlin has been told he will get the Scottish cup games and if so, does that mean he will play against Celtic. Or do you think that Shagger will be brought back in for that one.

I think this is a very difficult one for SG because if he brings in shagger. Does that send the message to McLaughlin that he doesn't trust him against Celtic.

Personally I would give the groves to shagger for that one and tell McLaughlin if we get to the final he gets that one.
Thoughts guys.

Best team plays against Celtic.

If McLaughlin is going to be our keeper in 2 years then he needs to play. remember he was brilliant at the start of the season. Personaly I'd be giving McGregor rest of the season off.

Greegs is still easily our best keeper so this is very easy for me mate, allan mcgregor plays for me 👍🇬🇧.

I'd play McLaughlin in the remaining Scottish Cup games (hopefully all the way to winning it) . He is a very good keeper. McGregor has been great for us again this season but deserves a rest. We should be good enough to beat Celtic on the day regardless of who is in goal, as long as our other players turn up. The way he has started his Rangers career, Wright should be in the starting XI for the Old Firm game too.

The boy needs game time. If he is good enough to be no2 to shagger then he is good enough for me. Havn't seen him really put a foot wrong so I would trust him between the sticks.

I'd play McLaughlin in some of the league games now but the Cup is the priority and shagger starts for me 100%. We haven't win the Scottish Cup in years and it shouldn't be taken lightly.

We need to play our strongest team against them, and that means McGregor starts. The league is in the bag, so give McLaughlin game time in some of the remaining games.

It is a tough call
But to be honest McLaughlin has done nothing to suggest he can’t be trusted he’s been great anytime he’s been called on
As much as I’m a massive mcgreggor fan
If McLaughlin is getting the cup games then I think he should play the game against Celtic
But I’m sure Gerrard will make the correct call either way hopefully in a way it doesn’t offend either player.

We play our best team possible and that’s McGregor in goals when he is fit.

With respect stig, this isn't a tough call. McGregor is the best goalkeeper in Scotland by a country mile, and If he's fit, he plays. This is Celtic in the cup we're talking about, not some first division, part-time mob! If McLaughlin doesn't like it, too bad!

Regarding the original post
If McLaughlin is getting cup games then it would be a tough call to drop him if he’s done nothing wrong which he hasn’t
I firmly believe McLaughlin is good enough to play against Celtic and I fir, ly believe he would play well and players on the park would trust him as much as they would trust mcgreggor
Just my opinion bud I’m all for giving folk chances especially when they haven’t done anything wrong and he’s been apart of our clean sheets when he’s been in goals?

Re thinking about it. Should make cup priority and give players a rest in the league. McLaughlin could play rest of the league games and McGregor in cup.

McGregor will play in old firm game
No brainer.

The best starting 11 should start, no questions about that, that means McGregor and Davis if fit, league is won, now let's go dump them out the Cup and win it, nice double it will be.

U play McGregor, however if any issues mcglauhlin an excellent deputy.
When he signed probably knew he was second choice, because in the main he was second pick at Sunderland.

Its entirely possible he has been promised cup games, but I sincerely hope not in this occasion, greegs is our superstar, along with morelos and Davis he must play

Doiger, migrator " deserves a rest ", don't even think of suggestthat yo him, he's a goalkeeper not a winger, he doesn't need to rest he would be sick to miss a game like this, or possibly a cup final appearance.
