    You'd wonder why, otherwise...

    Just wondering does anyone know how this lads future is working out seeing as the 'Gers are going completely tits up.

    Will they even have an underage setup in the Scottish inter-pub Sunday league?

    It's entirely possible that he will be promoted to the first team if Rangers continue to lose their senior players.

    After some snooping about ...He seems to have kept his place as their first choice in the underage setup and one of his main counterparts is going out on loan to Accie next season according to rangers.co.uk (soon to be replaced by http://www.geocities.com/rangers)

    Neil Alexander has said he'll be staying though so the lad's still got a decent keeper to contend with.

    McCoist says S.F.L.3 may be on the cards and that he has about six players at present. If that were to happen our lad would be better off out of there surely. He would be early twenties by the time they resurface even with consecutive promotions. Cant see them putting him in the team at that level either, I'd imagine S.F.L.3 wouldn't be short of rough and tumble.

    S.F.L.3 may involve cutting off somebody's head to use as the football.

    Being the keeper that got them successive promotions back to the big time could be the making of the lad though.

    While I appreciate it's a joke, geocities closed in 2009 (except in Japan for some reason).

    made his debut tonight against Linfield: http://www.rangers.co.uk/match/match...s-2-0-linfield

    To reiterate, the Cork-born Ireland U19 goalkeeper made his debut for Rangers against Linfield in Belfast. Strange times.

    Not to be sneezed at ...small clubs like Rangers need these friendlies against bigger sides with proven pedigree from across the water. All helps pay a few bill(y)s.
