    Browns not playing well. But his touch is not a problem, its his influence on the game.

    BROONY v BAZZA

    I agree with you on some things there but lets not forget that he had a lot playin on his mind last year with his sister bein ill and stuff. I think him startin right now has a lot to do with the amount of commitment he's givin during the break. I do think Barry would be more suited for the occasion but this gives Broony the chance to show what he can do with a fresh start to try and make that possition his own.

    As for the old firm match itself - i think Maloney, Naka and McGeady will be our starlets. They were sublime on Saturday. I think Crosas will only come on if the game spreads out because he can find space and gaps to play awesome passes. I can see why they've been calling him "the new Xavi" now. This is the old firm though so anyone can be a hero. Even LOOVENS!!!

    THought Loovens had an excellent first game (ignoring his blip when he nearly got caught with the ball early on. Was winning ALMOST ALL IN THE AIR AGAINST a big centre forward with attitude. distribution was better than Micks, but thats not hard:86:.

    Maloney was the story and I think he'll help McGeady by splitting the marking a bit, Although I thought that McGeady was a little reluctant to play him in at first, prefering to go himself. We need these two working together rather than vieing for the limelight. I think wee shaun showed his class not only on the field but off it , praising the quality of McGeady and the improvement in his game. (So * was that class when he left I ask playing divels advocate).

    Crosas did well . (but so did that italian midfielder at the begining of the season, forget his name and his football......:86:) need to see more but it's promising.

    As long as we tank the Huns I don't mind who plays on Sunday but I can see Skippy and Sammy starting with Wee Shaun coming on for impact later. Given the way WGS tends to think.

    well, on saturdays evidence mate hopefully its a step in the right direction because we did play well, you have to give credit were credit is due, if we were all as negative as you we wouldnt have the support we have today mate. I agree there is always room for improvement and we do need to start performing but we will get there its only a few matches into the season, takes time for new players to gel together, just be patient

    scott brown hasn't impressed recently, which is a shame because i know he can play, sometimes he turns it on, he just needs more discipline and time
