StreetCowboy Posted September 29, 2012 Author Share Posted September 29, 2012 (edited) Forres Mechanics have been preparing for a visit by Glasgow Rangers - additional capacity has been added to bring the ground up to 2,700, though its not all seated. "We are a semi-professional team and train two nights a week, so compared to Rangers we really are up against it and we trained an extra night this week because of the calibre of the opposition," said Rowley, former Mechanics Manager. I had a look, and the game's not on Astro. Not live, anyway. Elsewhere, in the furthest away fixture in mainland Scottish football (probably not quite true) Wick Academy travel to Berwick Rangers.

StreetCowboy Posted October 7, 2012 Author Share Posted October 7, 2012 Berwick Rangers' mediocre form continues, as a loss at Peterhead, as the English call it, sees them in the bottom half of the table. Pie'erheid, meanwhile climb past Glasgow Rangers into second place, and fitfirnofir,eh? Queen's Park remain top of the division, with a game in hand. Stirling Albion haul themselves off the bottom of the table, and past their neighbours East Stirling, with their win over Glasgow Rangers. Meanwhile, in the higher divisions of Socttishly fitba', Smokie will be delighted with Arbroath's 3-1 win over Brechin, keeping them in the hunt for promotion.

StreetCowboy Posted October 15, 2012 Author Share Posted October 15, 2012 Seems like there's no stopping Queen of the South; after despatching Rangers with penalties, the odd goal of three sees them wrestle clear of Arbroath to meet Partick Thistle. But now our thoughts turn to the Glasgow Derby, as Queen's Park visit their neighbours Rangers at the Ibrox stadium. SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

StreetCowboy Posted October 21, 2012 Author Share Posted October 21, 2012 Well, congratulations are due to Rangers, 2-0 winners over their oldest rivals, Queen's Park, the team that invented passing football. The win takes them top of the division. Elsewhere in the third division, Berwick clawed their way closer to the play-offs with a home win over Clyde.

StreetCowboy Posted October 27, 2012 Author Share Posted October 27, 2012 Some of you may be aware of rumours that a new European superleague will be formed, drawing its Scottish participant from the Third Division. Today, Queen's Park host Berwick Rangers, hoping that a home win will highlight their commitment to mix it with the best on the European stage. Glasgow Rangers, meanwhile, will travel tomorrow to meet Clyde, in exile in Cumbernauld these last eighteen years, hoping to pull away at the top of the table from Elgin, whom they lead on goal difference. Everything to play for, then, in the search for glory. I'm not sure if any of those games will be on satellite in Thailand SC Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
StreetCowboy Posted October 31, 2012 Author Share Posted October 31, 2012 (sung) ...'cos the cheuchters are coming to town...' Caledonian Thistle travel to Ibrox in a League Cup quarter-final against lowly Glasgow Rangers; despite topping the third division, they may struggle when they come up against opposition three divisions higher. However, Terry Butcher, Thistle's manager, and former Rangers captain, has been careful not to appear over-confident, bearing in mind the ignominy suffered by fellow premier divisioners Motherwell, who lost to Rangers in the previous round. However, it would be a brave man that would bet against Rangers recovering the cup currently held by the Administrators of the former club... Elsewhere, Celtic beat St Johnstone and Aberdeen drew with St Mirren, while Dundee United also play Hearts in the windswept dunes of Tannadice.

StreetCowboy Posted November 1, 2012 Author Share Posted November 1, 2012 Third division Glasgow Rangers, bouyed by their recent win to overtale amateur leaders of the league Queen's Park (the only Scottish team to reach the FA Cup final, though that was before my time...) were brought firmly back down to earth by Inverness Caledonian Thistle when the Premier division outfit dumped them out of the Scottish Cup. This weekend, they come up against the cheuchters of Pei'erheid (in English, Peterhead). Meanwhile, Berwick Rangers travel to second-in-the-league Elgin, while Queen's Park entertain second-bottom East Stirling (would've still been bottom, had they not beaten Glasgow a few weeks back...)

StreetCowboy Posted November 10, 2012 Author Share Posted November 10, 2012 I was a little surprised that this thread was so quiet in a week of such drama for Scottishly football. In a week when Celtic cruelly restored the country's faith in miracles ahead of tomorrow's match at Murrayfield against the All Blacks, Hearts of Midlothian look set to follow Glasgow Rangers into the abyss of oblivion, thanks to some gentle prodding by the impoverished revenners. Bonnyrigg Rose will be hoping to progress another step on the path to glory, Hampden and European glamour - when they host a replay of their match against Brechin City, the bright lights of Paisley and an away fourth round tie with St Mirren beckon. Other teams lingering on their third round ties include Queen's Park, today welcoming Stranraer to enjoy the Hampden experience, while Berwick welcome Stenhousemuir for their first overseas competitive fixture since goodness-knows when. But it's league football this weekend, Glasgow Rangers hosting Pie'erheid, and Berwick away to the Cathedral City of Elgin. Queen's Park, busy on cup duty today, play East Stirling on Tuesday.
