QUOTE OF THE DAY

‘It’s just a pity we lost to Lincoln Red Imps or we could have been the first Scottish team to win in Gibraltar and lift a treble Treble’

paranoia is setting in among the wee green men fae paradise, worrying about the transfer market, asking for the reshuffle of the board and looking to get rid of Peter Lawwell. How the tide is turning.”

David Bryce, Ayr said: “It’s an absolute disgrace and an insult to the Celtic fans that we are losing out on transfer targets to Stoke City.

“Lawwell and the board simply aren’t doing enough. It is a disgrace a great club like ours has no recognised right-backs and only two fit strikers. It is not good enough.”

Rangers opened discussions with Swedish defender Filip Helander over a £3.5million move from Bologna that was given the thumbs up by Rino Gattuso.

Gordon Hendry, Ochiltree, said: “Helander looks a bit like Joe Worrall – let’s hope he doesn’t play anything like him. At this stage we will just have to accept our recruitment team’s judgement as they haven’t done a bad job up to now with our bargain basement buys, freebies and loan players.

“From Gattuso’s comments it would appear we have gained yet another bargain to help us challenge the big spending multi-millionaires from Parkhead. Roll on the first Old Firm game at Ibrox.”

Andy Adams, Kirkcaldy, said: “Now we have ex-Charlton player/manager Chris Powell saying Joe Ari bo has made the wrong move coming to Scotland. I take it if Mr Powell was offered a job with any of the top six clubs in Scotland he would turn it down on the grounds it wouldn’t further his career? Aye, right.”

Drew Ferguson, Oban, said: “Powell and Lee Bowyer reckon Ari bo will not develop as well at Rangers and should have stayed in England’s lower league.

“Could they explain how Van Dijk, Wanyama, Robertson, Forster, Dembele and Ryan Kent – who seems to have a value of over £12m – got on?”
