hadn't heard that variation of his name. very good.

 

Quick Rangers update, former player and reserve team coach Iain Durrant is going to be the Bradley for the time being.

 

Sort of a burn there! Well played.

I like Iain Durrant. I hope he stays in the fold (probably will) after this weekend's fixture. Maybe in a few years he'll take over the full squad when McCoist has run his course.

And Webster signs today with Rangers. Not our Webster. I would get a good chuckle if it was!

 

If the games in Lot 16A are any indication, things are pretty dire for Rangers if they are looking at a flabby 37 year old with a bad back.

 

Here he is:


If you squint your eyes just a bit, I can definitely see a resemblance!

 

In case some of you still were under the delusion the U.S. had near the talent of the Czech Republic, Rosicky put two on Liverpool to knock the Reds (current holders) out of the FA Cup.
Once again: The U.S. lost to a superior team.

 

Reyna back to the U.S.?

 

Wasn't too long ago that I read about Reyna denying back to the MLS rumors. Oh well. If he's not playing it's probably better for everyone.

I give it two weeks before his appearance at a New York Red Bulls press conference. Good for the league.

 

I'm looking forward to Reyna's arrival in MLS. RBNY will not be using a DP slot on him so that makes it all even better.

He was denying the rumors for a while but this move was inevitable.

 

BBC Scotland is reporting Walter Smith will resign the Scotland position to take over the Rangers job. Good for Rangers, but Scotland now has no chance of qualifying for anything anytime soon.

 

Yes, that was correct. But there was an issue still with compensation and the like.

But, here is your updated link!

 

So, Walter walks away, and all is well in the Blue side of Glasgow. But this is horrible news for the National Team. Smith seemed to making great progress with them.
