    That was better I happily take the point in this case.

    We pull away from the Hibees and soar away into the promotion fight.

    Sellik are second? Even if they have two games in hand, they're growing… complacent.

    It gets ever more confusing. Mike Ashley vs Dave King vs Robert Sarver... who's offer is apparently ''undervalue'' for a club that currently only consists of ever new loans

    Yeah Robbie Neilson has offered his resignation after Hearts failed to score for the last 16 minutes of the match. Samefur dispray!

    Ask cold_mac. I think the problem is that Celtic are used to beat their opponents by high margins these days, but St Johnstone don't do clear defeats (in the same way they don't do high wins either).

    Doubt it will matter though. Our form, since the turn of the year, has been almost flawless and I can't see any major repercussions from this. It really is an amazing turnaround that this year might be the first treble year since 2001 despite the biggest challengers and bleak first half of the season.

    We had an enormous energy drain with the Inter & Aberdeen-games and finally had to rotate. Even Wakaso played. So in one way we paid the price for our settled XI as our reserve was lacking match fitness and struggled against a decent St. Johnstone performance. The loss was still unfortunate - Swansons goal was a stunner and regarding chances, the game was at least even.

    This lack of cover for certain positions is concerning though - despite our 30+ squad. Johansen is just not a sitting midfielder and Bitton too vital for our shape. Mulgrew has been out for almost half a year now which leaves us with just Bitton & Brown. Same with Griffiths - has to play. Guidetti has chucked it and hasn't performed in.... a lot of months (excluding one shot vs Inter) and Scepovic is a misfit. Stokes is adequate in Deila's inside-forward role but never carries the team and remains infuriating.

    This season has quite a lot of decent sides outside of St. Mirren and Ross County. Next years development will be interesting to see when Hearts (& Hibs?) are promoted.

    From what you've posted, I think you have a surfeit of players, or at least an unbalanced lot.

    Spot on with both assessments.

    4 Strikers - 1 plays.
    9 Attacking midfielders - 3 play.
    4 Sitting midfielders - 2 play.


    17 for 6 positions.


    Our back 4 in comparison consists of 6 players, with only 1 left back.


    Do you have any hopes left for Rangers being promoted this year, Treva?

    If the system weren't so moronic, yes. There should be a play-off stage so that the other clubs have a chance, otherwise you can get Dundee-Hibernian, Rangers-Hearts, etc. occupying the top two spots.

    But, as the system is moronic… no, not that much. But there's a couple games in hand for us. Of course, that's part of the problem, the system's moronic. Teams get wasted by not having a winter break even when most of the pitches are waterlogged or snowed under.

    I get the feeling that mighty Sellik might have beaten Inter if it hadn't been for their keeper's mistake in that rollercoasting first half in Glesga.

    We're the big team and that counts. Everyone wants to be the ones taking points off us and all the pressure gets into our players' heads. And there's not Ally to deal with that, either…

    You should've seen what it was when River Plater were relegated just the one category…

    The big team? Just big enough to see you through the field glasses down there in the table, I would say

    Also, what do you make of the great ''regime change'' at Ibrox? Dave King and Co. certainly seem to care more about the club than the Whyte's and Ashley's, but will it be that easy? I saw they try to freeze the Sports-Direct board members now, but on the other hand Newcastle United have voted to make Rangers a feeders club, thus I can't seem them giving up so quickly. And in the last three years there was always another figure which would appear and scupper the ongoing process. But I'm only an outside spectator so I'd like to know what you think, as a Rangers supporter.

    Scotland is already England's feeder league system. As a supporter, I think they'd better keep a hand on things. Maybe not wasting so much money would be a good starting point.
