I may get pelters for this but, I thought Forster and Hooper could've made the "inexperienced" England squad considering Frazer Campbell has been out injured for a considerably long time. Thoughts anyone?

Chad

Your deluded!

Forster - yes. Although he's sometimes a spectator in games he's been solid when called upon and enough evidence there that he's making huge progress and could do a job.

Hooper - no. I think he's been inconsistent this season. Even on some of the days when he's managed to score he'd looked below par (yesterday is a perfect example). However if he manages to up his consistency I think he'd have an outside chance of making the Euro squad or at the very least be a 40-man provisional choice.

Forster and Hooper are just ordinary players, Hooper has talent and could improve to be a top championship player, but never EPL, Forster is never an international goal keeper, think of Given, Hart, McGregor, etc and he just doesn't count with these guys, hasn't got that special thing

I think joe hart is a bit overrated but still i dont think hooper or forster will make the england team purely because of the league we play in but they are still fairly young and maybe one day the could play for england i think hooper is a very good player and on his day he can be phenominal and forster has started to show great form this season and imo he is just as good as mcgregor and half the keepers in the premiership davie c

Lol, Hooper a Championship player? I would take anyones money Hooper next club will be EPL.

Aye right sit doon son both are defo championship players at best nae chance of them ever being called up...

Ok neil lennon can sit doon tae as hes touted them for england caps, from a manager thats clear for a clean sweep this season!

Sit doon both of you one title doesn't make a manager.....

Sit doon we can all see Fat Sally is never going to be a manager all he will ever be is a number 2 in all aspects of the meaning.

Ian(For every �1 Celtic spend rangers will pay their creditors 10p)

Aye but three in the same season does!

Think of Given, Hart, McGregor, etc and he just doesn't count with these guys, hasn't got that special thing

yeah hes better than mcshagger

Is this the same guy that you were all slaughtering after the game against rennes?

It is sad that because Forster and hooper play in scotland it is thought they are not good enough for England well it will be their loss 2 experenced players like these would be an great addition to any team they should be given a chance no matter were they play

The Celtic player of the year for me so far is Charlie Mulgrew. The nearest to him, are Stokes,forest and Forster. When times were really hard these were guys who really dug in. For me Charlie is just shading it, because when we were looking for a leader he stepped up. I should include Mr consistent in this as well, Joe Ledley, he just goes about his job ans never lets the team down, he scores important goals as well. But, it's Charlie so far for me, what do others think. paddybhoy

Have to say big Sam played his part in the revival also, another sterling performance yesterday .Has been pushing for MOM the last 6/7 games he's played . TTTS

The man fae del monte says aye paddy

You summed it up perfectly mate. Even Scott Brown has proved to be one of our best players this season aswell... We have a team full of winners who all deserve there credit. It will be a very hard job to pick out one individual after all the bhoys have given!

JonBhoy

Big vic 4 me

Would be big Sammy for me. Would also do wonders for his confidence going into europe next year where he will be one of our main threats.

Ledley for me...when all those around were losing their heads he stood tall and still does. Remember he scored the winner last time against TFOD

Charlie was the star man yesterday, always delivered in every position; serious contenter for my playerof the year

Big charlie for me think he has found his best position (cb) but does a good job where ever he is played. player of the season,kb-bhoy

Spot on mate charlie gets my vote , i thought he was our best player last year has well , he is there for the long haul , not like wee izzie i mhave been hearing his attitude around lennox town is shocking , he will be the first too go next transfer window , looks like he might have been 1 hit wonder anyway

Hooper has been amazin you dafty

Has to be Ledley. Consistently good each week where it be LB, LM or his best position of CM. Rarly gives it away and always bursts a gut for the cause.

Daz the Hoopy

Can't believe anyone would put Samaras forward for player of the year. What did he do in the first half yesterday. Lazy performance causing others to delay passing to him, as he was still walking back from last attack. Frustrating to watch as he never lifts his head to look for a pass. Ledley has been outstanding, rarely wastes the ball, scores important goals & does a lot of unnoticed work. Did you see the 60 yard run he made last Wednesday to make a tackle.

Id be more than surprised if Joe Ledley did nor win POTY this year!

Sammys no my player of the year but must say he`s more than pulling his weight for lennon know just my opinion. joe amazing this season busts a gut every game but it has to be charlie for me,composed in defence something we haven`t had for a while,good passing, sweet left foot and a big strong lad. POTY

Not a player but mr whyte must be up there as one of the guys thats made our year, hail hail

Was just commenting on Sam's contributions this season.Has played well and should be acknowledged for that .
Some people you just cant please ,the type that were baying for NL s head back in November ,that type . TTTS

Good shout paddyboy

Id have to say Kayal if he didnt get injured or big Vic, also Forest needs a mention as well

Oops was cut off Meant to say would like to see Ibrahim ,Brozek ,Lustig and maybe even Juarez get a few games , ref Rotation ... TTTS

Good Morning Ed,
Just wondering what you were hearing re Rangers future these days?
Good win yesterday, Motherwell as good if not better than the "pub teams" both Rangers and Celtic have struggled with in Europe recently.
Cheers
Nevis {Ed007's Note - In all honesty, it that much of a mess it's hard to keep track or guess what is going to happen.}

While Celtic disposed of Motherwell 1-0 at Celtic Park on Saturday afternoon to go 23 points clear at the top of the SPL – major developments were taking place across the city.

As Celtic Park jumped to the sounds of “Championee” and “We’re having a party when Rangers die” a lot of clicking noises took place in another area to the south west of Glasgow.

We hear from an impeccable source that liquidators were inside the “Big Hoose” today taking photographs of absolutely everything that can possibly be sold.

This information is 100% factual and shows developments have taking a major step towards their “institution” folding and formally bringing to an end around 100 years of bigotry – we’ll let them off with the first 40 – as we are nice guys.

The Sunday’s may or may not have this information but as the rags and old media in general are known to sit on negative Skint FC stories, particularly during Sir Minty Moonbeams tenure, we thought we’d put in the public domain at the earliest opportunity.

Get your Ice Cream purchased and jelly ready in the fridge. The previously unthinkable is about to become reality!!!!!!!!!!!!!
