Looks as though it will be shown on NOW TV (certainly looks as though most of the League Cup games will be accessible from the UK ). I don't know if they will be accessible from Australia but there is generally a big overlap between SKY and NOW TV games.
Unfortunately it does require buying a £14.99 day sports pass to access NOW TV - but this has worked OK for me in the past and will be trying this method later this evening.

Really liked the look of Mbengue today. Very solid and I think we might get a goal or two off his long throw. |

So we finished 16th again.
Also happened to notice we're currently 16th in the Championship based purely on alphabetical order with zero games played. |

Really sorry to hear this about Mark. An absolutely lovely guy and probably my favourite player when I started going to Rangers around the mid-sixties. Will forever be known as the scorer of the winner in our epic league cup final win at Wembley. |

I spoke to him just once, in the club shop, probably during the summer of 1974. I will always remember how he came over as being really friendly and a true gentleman. Responsible for assembling what I think was our best ever squad (including Stan, Don Givens and Dave Thomas) I’m pleased he made it to the grand old age of 92. |

Early days yet but in view of well-documented striker shortages I hope we can keep Charlie Kelman. Several nice layoffs, looked good when he drove forward and he tackled back well to win the ball at least once. Also got the assist for Dembele’s second goal. Despite not getting much service he certainly made his presence felt. |

Marti was in charge at Rangers for 1.5 years and prior to ‘gardening leave’ was the 5th longest serving Championship manager - with the actual longest serving, Michael Carrick, being at Middlesbrough for a staggering 2.5 years.
Now including us, 17 of 24 Championship clubs (71%) either have no manager or a manager who has been in place for less than a year. |

In 1962, when Clement Danes was based in Du Cane Road, the school first team played a QPR team in a friendly at Loftus Road and won 4-3. The QPR team included Alec Stock who was manager at the time and George Bristow, whilst the Danes team was occasionally coached by the former England captain Billy Wright. There is a short Guardian article about the game in the link:

On November 23rd we were bottom P15 W1 D7 L7 Pts10 GD -13
Less than 2 months later we are mid-table P27 W8 D11 L8 Pts35 GD -4
Which means our record over that 2 months is P12 W7 D4 L1 Pts25 GD +9
What a fantastic turnaround from Marti and the squad – well done. |

‘…how come I can't eat or drink anything I like any more..’
I felt exactly this way when coffee started having similar effects on me.
However a lot of cafes & restaurants do very good decaff versions of their various coffees (Cappuccinos, Lattes etc) if you ask.
So you can enjoy the taste without the side effects. [Post edited 11 Oct 2024 13:26]

The first article cites a recent study in North America, carried out at Columbia University, looking at young people (average age 27) currently playing in local league teams who were tested using MRI scanning. The study found that high levels of heading were associated with changes in brain structure that were consistent with mild traumatic brain injuries.
The second article summarises the findings of work carried out by researchers at Liverpool John Moores University and Keele University and is based on an article they wrote in the Journal of Neuropsychology in 2021. |

We need Blackburn to win.
If not Wednesday, Plymouth and Birmingham can all get more than 50 points. |

Last visited Vienna in the late 1980s but funnily enough will be going back later this year - so I would be interested in your views when you return. There are all the usual tourist things to do like the art galleries, the Spanish Riding School and the horse drawn carriage rides around the centre but the things I most remember are:
(i) The Giant Ferris Wheel in the Prater Park. This featured in the classic film the ‘Third Man’, with Orson Welles, which was made in 1949 and set in post-war Vienna. So the Ferris wheel is really old and a bit of a relic from this era.
(ii) St Stephen’s Cathedral. It has the most spectacular roof decorated in multi-coloured tiles. When we went you could climb the stairs up the tower for some amazing views of Vienna.
(iii) The Graben which is like a historic Plaza area but with a really nice vibe to it.
Also, don’t forget to try the original Sacher-Torte Chocolate cake, the Wiener-Schnitzel and the Apfel Strudel. |

I’ve unsuccessfully tried to find some more details on Gerry’s back injury because I remember from the time that Ranger’s drop in form after the brilliant 1975-76 season coincided with Gerry not being available for selection. I’ve always thought that Gerry was the most important player in 1975-76 and felt that if he hadn’t been injured we would have been a really top club, challenging for the title, for several more seasons.
All I can see is that Gerry made 11 League appearances in 76-77 but the Arsenal game at home (12 March 1977 when, as you say, he scored) was the 25th league game of the season – so something seems to have happened to him well before that match. He also only starts being listed as a goal-scorer around February/March 1977 suggesting he was making a comeback just before the Arsenal game.
I have a very vague recollection that he injured his back in a pre-season game in the summer of 1976, landing on his back on a hard pitch somewhere or other – but I may well be wrong. Someone out there must know? |
