3 game ban for Fredo. That’s a joke. Says based on previous incidents. Think SFA are protecting themselves from being criticised.
08 Feb 2019 20:53:23
It's no joke IMO mate. Steven gerrard needs to have a serious word with alfredo about his discipline problems, without taking the edge out of his game! Morelos is a fabulous striker, but no use to us continually suspended and sitting in the stand, a good few times during the season! We all had a chuckle, when alfredo got off with the 3 incidents against celtic, which if we're being honest, was very lucky to get away with! Again i'll say it that i rate morelos as a superb striker, who has the world at his feet, if he can screw the nut! If he doesn't, he will become a liability, a luxury that we have gauge if its worth having him,
ie. the pros V the cons.
Not any individual is more important or bigger than glasgow rangers, no matter how good you are! I only hope stevie G can eventually get through to him! He's a big loss to us being continually suspended and costing us games and points, although i do take on board the games he's won us, thus why i stated pros V cons! If he hadn't been suspended for our betfred league cup semi final against the sheep, i truly believe we would have beaten them, that's a big example of what i'm talking about here! He's by far the best striker in scotland, like i've stated on here, many times! Really hope stevie G can get through to him.
08 Feb 2019 21:00:01
Blue nose, you are missing the point, the third game is points level exceeded because of previous bookings, sending offs.
08 Feb 2019 21:12:18
how can they base this on previous incidents shouldn't that get dealt with at the time they make the rules up as the go along that lot caving in under media scrutiny and pressure from other mangers talking about our players that's all they have done.
08 Feb 2019 21:27:12
Complete and utter joke Moreols should not have been sent off in the first place, cause it was only to even up the numbers. These cronies at the SFA have got an agenda against Rangers FC and it, s time we fought back and get rid of the these rubbishBAGS!
08 Feb 2019 21:45:58
Donkey McKenna banned for 3 games too.
08 Feb 2019 22:22:16
SFA are protecting themselves from another letter from the manky mob by the look of it.
08 Feb 2019 23:07:16
McKenna got the same due to a previous ban. I don’t think Morelos can complain he needs to calm down and not get involved.
08 Feb 2019 23:34:27
Shocking they have a vendetta against him #operation stop 55 lol.
09 Feb 2019 10:24:33
Was silly to get involved, was a sending off.
08 Feb 2019 19:35:29
3 matches for Alfredo. What do we think?
08 Feb 2019 21:00:21
Plot, no argument,
08 Feb 2019 21:24:57
McKenna believe also 3 match ban, sounds fair and consistent punishment for stupid behaviour.
08 Feb 2019 21:48:08
Need Defoe to bang goals in next 3 matches, maybe the kid won't be so petulant if he isn't guaranteed a starting place. Then again, he 'll be sulking for weeks if left out.
08 Feb 2019 22:23:28
Was always coming. Fredo our for 3 games, time for Defoe to do what he was brought here for. Not as physical as Fredo but he is smarter and will find space in a packed box to score.
08 Feb 2019 23:05:24
It's been a long time coming, hopefully Defoe bangs a few goals over the next 3 games, and this clown gets the message, that he's got to get a grip to get back into the fold.
08 Feb 2019 23:49:45
justified for play acting.
08 Feb 2019 18:32:01
Maybe next time we play the sheep at Ibrox we could have a minutes silence for McInnes? Not sure what minute of the game that would be though. Would be hilarious.
08 Feb 2019 23:31:44
13th Minute as he was nearly always a sub 🇬🇧🏴.
08 Feb 2019 18:20:12
Our keeper gets a 2 match ban they're skipper gets away with another tackle makes you think eh.
08 Feb 2019 20:26:57
Where did you hear 2 match ban?
Hearing is on Tues. And gers could contest.
08 Feb 2019 23:37:59
We will contest and lose but I was under impression if the referee saw the incident (wich he did was looking straight at it) no further action can be taken. As for the Lego muncher he's been getting away with it for years continually and until everyone starts questioning it instead of all jumping on the hate rangers bandwagon nothing will change.
Don't condone looking to hurt players but he's the one exception hope Jack snaps his leg in two at parkhead and then see the uproar. Scott Brown is a glorified thug.
08 Feb 2019 18:00:06
Let's do killie tomorrow and shut the future celtic manager up for good.
08 Feb 2019 23:38:20
100% time to put them back in there place.
08 Feb 2019 17:26:08
McGregor banned for 2 games but apparently can play tomorrow and appeal on Monday.
08 Feb 2019 18:14:54
What a joke that panel is, yeah McGregor probably deserved to get cited for that, but how can they miss Fergusons challenge on McGregor and let's not forget Burkes dive for the mhanks when he went down about 10 seconds later.
08 Feb 2019 18:15:35
Bobby Madden has stated he did not see Alan McGregor challenge and therefore the incident could be reviewed lol WTF . Madden was looking right at the incident and couldn’t not have seen the challenge?!?! How could he not see this?
08 Feb 2019 19:37:12
Scotty, need to learn the rules, Burke cannot be challenged as he never gained a free kick or penalty.
Mcgregor deserves ban and so does Alf. Could have missed worse games. Note Morelos only two bookings away from further three game ban.
08 Feb 2019 22:42:43
Jboy I never mentioned Burke. you need to learn to read lol I’m well aware of the rules mate.
Please explain why McGregor deserves a ban and so does Alf?
08 Feb 2019 22:47:18
Jboy you got to be joking at no point did morelos use excessive force or use a stamping motion on McKenna, madden is looking straight at McGregor challenge and didn't deem it a foul so shouldn't have been challenged.
08 Feb 2019 23:08:37
The way things are going Morelos will probably miss 5 or 6 games out of the next 10 or so. Good job Defoe is there. Hitting form at ecactly the right time.
08 Feb 2019 23:11:05
We've got to stop weakening our team through stupidity. Magregor no need to take Ferguson out the way he did. Morelos knows if he gives refs a chance then he's off the park. I still think we've got enough to win games without these guys but let's learn lessons and keep our best team on the park.
09 Feb 2019 00:49:08
Soz Scotty. Blue tinted glasses guys, unfortunately bans are merited.
09 Feb 2019 00:53:47
Hope the SFA view the challenge Ferguson made on McGregor.
09 Feb 2019 08:39:20
Copland. They can't do anything about Ferguson as he was booked at the time and the ref was satisfied that waa sufficient.
08 Feb 2019 17:22:43
The magic hat has lost the plot he compares Fredo to Joe garner Wat ever his name is.
08 Feb 2019 17:51:59
think warburton has been on the sherry lol freddie and joe garner shouldn't even be mentioned in the same sentence leagues apart.
08 Feb 2019 16:27:20
Hi Guys, don't post much, but, anybody else concerned with this latest Ashley situation and a further court case in April. Our Chairman led us to believe that this twit was history, but obviously not. Just think we could've bought another couple of players with the legal costs alone.
08 Feb 2019 17:14:31
Don't think he ever said 'he was history', King is step by step taking the FatMan out of the equation - unfortunately the Fatman has bottomless pockets as far as legal advice etc is concerned and is not slow to put injunctions inplace when he isn't getting his own way, even if he knows he will be found wrong in the end!
patience irvger, patience :-)
09 Feb 2019 00:56:38
BAR 72 a judge will only issue a injunction if it's warranted. Mr King has broken this injunction, we all want of Ashley. Mr King made a mess of the deal to get rid of Ashley. I've said many times on the financial page we didn't read the small print.
08 Feb 2019 15:15:48
Any news on redcard out come.
08 Feb 2019 15:19:41
Dsger hearing starts at six.
08 Feb 2019 15:23:57
DSGERSFAN Try after 18:15 for Morelos decision. Had a look round and can't see anything regarding McGregor which had to be notified by 15:00.
08 Feb 2019 15:24:02
6pm meeting I believe so should hear tonight.
08 Feb 2019 16:16:29
Kl thanks guys here's hoping fur a timplosion 😂.
08 Feb 2019 16:43:34
Can Greegs be reviewed? The ref clearly saw the incident, my understanding was review can only happen if ref missed it.
08 Feb 2019 17:22:35
Mcgreggor has a 2 game ban. Well deserved.
08 Feb 2019 17:26:11
Mcgregor cited, hearing tuesday.
08 Feb 2019 17:28:45
McGtegor banned for 2 games. Apparently can play tomorrow if he appeals.
08 Feb 2019 17:53:29
Scotty that rule changed, take hubs player was booked but cited.
08 Feb 2019 11:49:39
See in my opinion with the morelos incident if Scott McKenna never kicked him back and got sent off morelos would only of got a yellow card for what he done.
08 Feb 2019 12:13:00
Have to love McInnes when he said McKenna was being naive. The same guy who twice pushed Morelos off the ball and was also guilty of a karate kick on Edouard. Nothing naive at all knows exactly what he does.
08 Feb 2019 12:24:06
Question is balls to foot or foot to balls.
08 Feb 2019 13:21:17
def foot to balls lol---every time he gets sent off his value decreases---.
08 Feb 2019 13:50:02
Why is everyone getting this wrong? Look at the video! McKenna kicks out THEN Morelos foot comes down on him. He has his eyes closed and a boot in his face when he makes contact with McKenna.
07 Feb 2019 14:45:58
if examine it closer McKenna kicks morelos foot up which comes back down. all McKenna but don't know how ref can spot that.
08 Feb 2019 17:28:05
The ref didn’t spot the Morelos part in incident as far as I’m led to believe. He immediately had the red card out for McKenna and it was after seeking advice from asst ref that he was informed that Morelos was a red card also. He need clarification before he showed Morelos the card.
08 Feb 2019 10:57:59
{Ed's Note - has posted a new player profile about, Philippe Coutinho
08 Feb 2019 10:39:01
What’s this guy Jake Hastie from Motherwell like as a player? Maybe it’s too soon to say? He’s getting some write ups, Sunderland and Swansea have watched him already, they think there’s a bargain on the go.
08 Feb 2019 10:03:55
Am I correct in saying that Alfredos appeal is heard this afternoon!?
I reckon it will be rescinded due to no actual forward motion of his leg towards mckenna.
Garuntee absolute bedlam across the city if it is rescinded.
08 Feb 2019 11:47:05
Apparently at 6pm today Jzer, according to the Scottish Sun. If it isn't rescinded, it would be a two-game ban, not three as some have reported, so not quite as bad as first thought. He'd miss the Kilmarnock game then home league game against St Johnstone. If he is banned I'd play Lafferty up front against Kilmarnock with Defoe sitting in just behind him. The Sun also report that the SFA will look at the two incidents involving McGregor and Ferguson. My take on these is that how could McGregor control his leg to that extent whilst sliding in to grab the ball (which he did) . Ferguson's was a clear kick and he should have been sent off.
08 Feb 2019 12:25:57
Personally am not sure that morelos will get away with it, and I wouldn't argue if MacGregor gets a ban as that was a nasty tackle on fergusson.
08 Feb 2019 13:09:53
Fintytint, how can it have been a tackle when he had the ball in his hands. Is he supposed to go for it head first? And if his leg isn’t out then Ferguson will clatter him and probably injure him. I remember when keeps used to come out with knees up or one leg fully extended to gather crosses balls and nothing was ever said.
08 Feb 2019 14:11:10
How can anyone defend MacGregor, it was done with intent. Not first time this season either.
08 Feb 2019 15:02:26
Cuillin72, the assistant Manager st our club says Shagger is not guilty, so how do you explain that or does he not know what he’s talking about👍.
08 Feb 2019 15:16:30
Yately mate come on, that was a nasty tackle. He didn't have to have his foot up that high, he was well ahead of fergusson to get the ball.
08 Feb 2019 15:27:06
McGregor done the boy IMO, I couldn’t complain if he was cited however Morelos must be cleared.
08 Feb 2019 16:39:54
Listen guys I am only stating what Gary said at today press conference 🇬🇧.
08 Feb 2019 17:12:49
Yately, watch the incident, it explains itself. He can't help himself at times.
08 Feb 2019 17:14:35
Gary Mac should go to specsavers.
08 Feb 2019 17:54:55
He's hardly going to say he's guilty yately 😉.
08 Feb 2019 17:55:15
Do u expect Gary to say yes give our player a ban, pity it did not start now, my understanding was fods was to start tomorrow.
07 Feb 2019 23:19:24
I watched the game live but thought I'd watch Sportscene too. My God, Michael Stewart is a bitter sad wisted person. Even for Morelos's fantastic 2nd goal he blamed an Aberdeen player. You can see the hurt in his eyes. Stewart and Thompson top TV pundits, f. off!
08 Feb 2019 06:23:35
The 2 of them are absolute plonkers!
Everyone laughs at these 2 idiots and their comments. One things for sure, they most certainly can't captivate their viewers and listeners!
Absolute torture to listen to!
08 Feb 2019 08:12:46
Who cares what either thinks their views are irrelevant.
08 Feb 2019 17:55:53
Guys as I keep saying, don't watch them.
07 Feb 2019 23:10:12
Note the pure class from Gerrard when the board goes up for 7 minutes added time. He doesn't flinch. Keeps his hands in his pockets and no change of expression. No questioning of the 4th official. It sends out the signal to his team and the opposition. no problem. dawdle.
07 Feb 2019 23:09:34
Just read that fud Michael Stewart in the sun that Morelos got away with worse the last time up at the sheep’s pen when he VOLLEYED McKenna, “really” as far as the world could see it was a wee petulant kick out nothing else Stewart really is a 🛎end and should just f@-? off.
08 Feb 2019 07:19:08
stewart is an absl 5 card trick. end of
his hatred and bitterness is astonishing
BBCs long list of unbiased and objective reporting lives on.
08 Feb 2019 07:41:27
I heard a clip of him describing the "volley". What an absolute arse. Somebody should volley him right off that programme.
08 Feb 2019 09:00:32
World's worst £1 footballer just ask levein 😂😂.
08 Feb 2019 10:42:45
Why does Stewart dislike Rangers so much? As I’m not a Scot I wouldn’t hear all that type off news.
08 Feb 2019 11:42:45
Years ago he was close to being released/ loaned out by Man Utd but waived a pay off from Man Utd to travel with Rangers for a pre-season tourney to be trialled and assessed. He thought he was guaranteed a contract with Rangers so accepted the zero pay-off.
Unfortunately for him he wasn't offered a contract and ended up joining Hearts on a freebie (might have been Hibs) but he moved the other way a couple of years later when he was released again.
He obviously dislikes Rangers for rejecting him.
08 Feb 2019 12:18:23
I think it was big Eck that decided he wasn't our standard after pre season. He's had it in for us and big Eck since.
08 Feb 2019 17:01:08
Dont mind stewart not buying into all this crap eveyones got a agenda against us leave that to the east end mob.
