    I don't like his idea of Green, Onouha and Perch up front with Phillips, Mackie and Chery behind them though!!

    Needed a proof-read before posting methinks!!

    I missed the deliberate mistake.

    A well crafted piece that cautions faith in our Orwellian media.

    Believe nothing; question everything.

    Oh, and now we've been left with a better squad than expected, cut them some slack until they gel!

    Nice nice article. Full of truths (I think)

    Our media team can do all this too I am sure, but I was fascinated by what Ian Taylor was doing yesterday, which was all very subtle and very pointed

    First tweet was something along the lines...."eerily quiet in the office today"
    He had another seemingly innocent tweet /instagram of Austin training at Harlington at about noon

    Then he retweeted the bro-love tweets between #7 and #9.

    This is so different to the old regime....where we knew what Arry had for breakfast, what colour socks he was wearing....the fact we had put a bid in for Messi, Ronaldo, Bale and 26 other people we had all heard of.... and that we had got Sandro for a knockdown price of 10 million .....and when he is less injured, more fit and has got a work permit and a residence permit and turns up he WILL be awesome honest guv.

    I am loving this now...and I am sure this happy feeling will last all through the international break....

    I agree that Clives' aricle is very good and honest, and a great read (I enjoyed every word!)

    However, yesterday I did not follow our media teams' tweets. Beth, thanks for a very interesting and "subtle" insight.

    Hahahahahaha <laugh> This line was brilliant:

    "But I leave these here, a random mixture of the worst of the rest, merely to break up the page for the people who struggle with a lot of words and not enough pictures and say I write too much."

    Can't believe anyone on here can ever criticise what CW writes. His match reports are 99.9% how I see them, usually..

    Good read

    ...he might like to rephrase the bit about Berahino being in a care home!

    Why re-phrase the care home bit, when he was put into one?

    Great read and encouraging.
    My only criticism is that he labels Bobby ""£60m" Zamora as a bit part player! A tad harsh I feel.

    Someone has obviously hacked Swords' account. First he was enthusiastically looking forward to a season in the Championship and now this.

    I always enjoy Clive's columns even though I will at times skip read them & thought this was a superb read.

    To my mind, we are very fortunate as Rangers supporters with our message boards. They may cater for different people, but in there own way not606, LFW & Report (not named in any specific order!) are mainly good. Of course, all three have meltdowns at times but in general they are brought back on track by the moderators AND the regular posters.

    I have not quoted Indie etc. as i never visit the site. They may well be at the same level as the boards mentioned!
