I was in no fit state yesterday to do anything other than sit in the sun and melt a bit, so didn't pen any post Rangers thoughts and, given that it's a Monday and there isn't really any massive breaking news from yesterday, I thought i'd jot down some musings from the game that I [...]
First pre season match underway and you'll forgive me for not really giving two sh*ts about the result, I'm sure, right?

I often wonder how they come about you know. Does Unai drop a note to another Premier League Manager and ask them if he wants to come [...]
So for England the dream of a World Cup final dies and much like most of my life it happens wondering why the national team have always fallen short.
