    Both teams carried luck. Rangers got more of the good variety than we did. Their first goal, for example, was a deflection. I agree our set upwas in large part to blame. The covering at Rangers first goal was criminal as we packed the 6 yard box as we've done for years against them. Rabbits caught in headlights. Certainly we were very sterile up front.

    Whats the latest rumour about Moult incidentally?

    Aberdeen rumoured to be making a bid with the correct amount before our next home game for Moult.

    I just can't see Aberdeen coming up with the cash we are looking for. I can see them coming in with a cut price offer in January.

    Which we should reject. 18 goals a season has to be worth more than £400k.

    How much did Aberdeen pay for that Big Stookie Rooney?

    Exactly. At least we seem to be kicking the the first derisory offer that comes in for our players out the door now, something we never done a few years ago. Christ we practically called out for teams to make any offer for a player worth a bit of money.
