Well done PLG!
I have no sympathy for Barry "Mr Rangers" Ferguson...
It's been apparent for a long time that something is rotten in the state of Ibrox.
I never rated Alex McLeish as a manager anyway, but it was still obvious that certain influences in the dressing room wanted him out and frequently just wouldn't turn up on the day at all.
I suspect Mr Ferguson had some involvement in this, and I reckon he sees himself as untouchable when it comes to conflict with Ibrox managers.
Surrounded by an army of unquestioning sycophants, Barry seems to have detached himself from reality.
If you go against your managers wishes in organising squad piss-ups, then refuse to act on his tactical directions during a game, what do you expect?
BF is a good player, but horribly overrated.
Rangers would be better off without him in the long run.
However, can PLG survive the disdain of the Fergie Loyal if results remain poor?
Well, no he can't....

Well that's my little 2007 football bit.
Wasn't that fascinating?
I don't know why I bother writing about it.
I've lost a lot of my day-to-day interest in Scottish football...
Is there any other country in the world in which the main TV coverage of the "national sport" is scheduled at 11pm on a Monday night?
That's like an admission in itself that no-one gives a shit any more...
Shouldn't it be scheduled at a time to attract the interest of Scottish kids?

Having to sort out all my junk with a view towards submitting my Sel-Assessment Tax form is not good for improving ones mood.
