Alright petal, calm down. Previously, OFC have had a playoff against CONMEBOL, which is still inter-confederation, but not the same as what is happening now. A home and away double-legged tie is different when discussing the travel that our player(s) has to undertake during the break, than a mini tournament between sides from different federations. Someone might have been worrying that Cadamarteri (and maybe Bernard) would need to travel to New Caledonia and then Congo within the space of a two week international break. Instead, they will go to Mexico and back.

Its CONCACAF, CONMEBOL, OFC and AFC all together.

Pretty sure all games are in one location, which i believe will be in Mexico.

Danny continues where he left off here, struggling against top half teams. Like Falkirk.

Preston can't be that poor again; looked like they expected to turn up and win. Didn't even celebrate their goal, which perhaps shows how they were looking at the game.

Bannan has received bookings for far less dissent than two Preston players have just shown.

How has he not booked their man there?

Celtic win away in Europe. That's it. That's the headline.

Whilst not mathematically out of it, the other thing to bear in mind with Rangers is how much has to happen for them to win the title. They're not even third yet, first of all, but let's assume they don't lose their game in hand and so go above Hibs. If they were five points behind Celtic at this stage, with Celtic top, very few would be saying they were going to win the title. As it is, they're five points behind Celtic, but twelve (nine at best when game in hand played) behind Hearts. I don't carry the same optimism about Hearts that some do, but let's be honest, this is not last season's Aberdeen. Any regression to the mean still may be enough for them to win the title if Celtic don't sort themselves out, such is the advantage that Hearts have built up early and the generally decent performances. Rangers need to overcome those deficits on two teams, meaning that they need to be just about perfect from here until the end of their season. So far, Röhl has done what he did at Wednesday; be pretty consistent in winning the games that they should, but look totally off the pace against sides that are better. Aside from the weird hold we seemed to have on West Brom, he showed no indication of being able to figure out how to beat the better sides. To make up the gap, whilst overtaking three teams, Rangers will need to not only not slip up against the lower teams, but also beat Celtic and Hearts. Probably every time remaining.

The police have already confirmed that it was the MTA hooligans that were the reason for the ban. But you carry on. British values, by the way. Put the dog whistle away and just say what you mean.

Because of the political storm whipped up through irresponsible comments made by members of government, including the PM. People will look back on this time and wonder what on earth had gone wrong with a country that meant it decided to throw so much weight behind a foreign country as it carried out a genocide thousands of miles away.

"Significant Hoolinganism" within MTA fanbase is reason for ban - West Midlands Police Flies in the face of what many were trying to tell us in here. I guess Sky News and WMP must be part of the "leftist agenda" or whatever you call it now. Beggars belief.

Martin O'Neil rolling back the decades.

It's taken, what, a matter of hours for the facade to drop from pig fans. It must have been killing them having to appear gracious towards our plight these last few months.

Because they're trying to go with the narrative that the spineless twit in Number 10 has given them. They weren't going to be getting any tickets, but the propaganda drive is in full force now.
