Nikola Katic, who is on loan from Plymouth Argyle, is never afraid to show his Rangers pride. Even after the Bosnian international, 28, had a Man of the Match performance against Liverpool, the centre-back acknowledged his affection for the Ibrox club. Nikola Katic went viral for a funny post-match interview after Plymouth shocked the Premier League leaders in the FA Cup. Katic’s expletive-laden post-match interview, in which he pressed ex-Celtic player Conor Hazard about his Rangers allegiances, earned the defender instant cult hero status among the Pilgrims. However, in an interview with the Championship club’s social media team, Nikola Katic…

Leeds United can begin to dream about playing in the Premier League next season after victories like Wednesday night. On Wednesday, Leeds United hammered Watford 4-0 away from home. Goals came from Dan James who scored twice, Manor Solomon and then Joel Piroe in the second half, as Daniel Farke’s side open up a five point lead at the top of the Championship table. It’s now 14 games unbeaten for the Whites. There’s also been six clean sheets in a row for Illan Meslier who’s had a handful of stops to make in that time, with Leeds simply too good…
This time last year, Newcastle United were dealing with a never-ending injury issue, with a long list of players on the sidelines. This season has been substantially different, and it is felt that James Bunce’s entrance has had a favorable impact, as the amount of muscle injuries has decreased significantly from last year. However, we left Birmingham with a number of concerns as Dan Burn (groin) hobbled off on a night in which Sven Botman (knee) and Anthony Gordon (quad) were also sidelined due to injury. Major update on four injury issues. Craig Hope of The Mail has provided a…
Nottingham Forest have made significant progress on the pitch this season, sitting third in the Premier League rankings. The Reds advanced to the fifth round of the FA Cup Wednesday night. Forest beat Exeter at St James’ Park, but it took a penalty shootout to defeat the League One opponents. Still, a win is a win. Forest will now try to recuperate swiftly ahead of a crucial encounter against Fulham at Craven Cottage on Saturday, with three more vital points at stake. Evangelos Marinakis was anxious for a striker in January. Forest’s failure to obtain one, combined with Taiwo Awoniyi’s…
Newcastle United are intending to sign a centre-back in the summer of 2025, having failed to do so during the previous two transfer windows. The summer of 2024 ended with Newcastle United missing out on Marc Guehi. The Magpies committed so much time to their pursuit of Guehi, but were unable to strike a deal with Crystal Palace. There was no new approach for him in January, as Newcastle attempted to sign Abdukodir Khusanov instead. Paul Mitchell came close, but the 20-year-old defender moved to Manchester City instead. Newcastle also coveted Juma Bah and Vitor Reis, but missed out to…
Rangers’ historic Scottish Cup defeat to Queen’s Park has sparked widespread criticism from fans, analysts, and club legends alike. The Gers’ 1-0 setback at Ibrox, their first home defeat to lower-league opponents in club history, proved to be a watershed moment for Philippe Clement, who is now on the verge of being fired by Rangers. Clement stays in charge for the time being, despite the fact that his team is effectively out of contention for every domestic competition this season, with a 13-point deficit to Celtic in the Scottish Premiership. Losing on penalties to their Old Firm rivals in the…
Kevin Muscat has seemingly once again surfaced as a likely contender to become the next Rangers manager with the rising pressure mounting on Philippe Clement. Despite Rangers’ humbling Scottish Cup loss at home to Queen’s Park over the weekend, Clement remains the club’s manager. The 1-0 setback at Ibrox makes Clement the first manager in the competition’s 150-year history to oversee a home loss to lower-league opponents. While the Belgian is still in charge for the time being, speculation about who will be the next to walk through the Ibrox doors continues. Clement defeated Muscat to become Gers manager in…
‘Unplayable’ is a word which has come up quite a lot in recent weeks; Daniel Farke’s Leeds United take another huge step towards the Championship title with a 4-0 win away at Watford. Any dissatisfaction the Yorkshire giants may have felt following their dreary, cure-for-insomnia draw against Burnley at the end of January has been extinguished by a run of three consecutive victories and 13 goals. The flood followed the dryness of Turf Moor. Cardiff City were washed away by Leeds United’s tidal tsunami. Leeds United could have come close to replicating that 7-0 victory at Coventry a few days…
Philippe Clement’s status in the Rangers’ dugout remains intact, despite ongoing speculation about the cost of dismissing him. The Belgian’s job has become untenable in the eyes of practically every Rangers supporter after his team lost 1-0 to Queen’s Park in the Scottish Cup, creating unpleasant history in the process. Clement’s appointment as the first Gers manager to oversee a home loss against lower-league opposition at Ibrox has not yet marked the end of his tenure, with £1.2 million in compensation necessary to part ways [Scottish Sun, 11 February]. Such a fee is beyond the Ibrox boardroom’s means, and Hugh…
Newcastle United have suddenly been plagued with injury problems. If there was a worst possible time for Newcastle United to enter an injury crisis, it would be now. Eddie Howe’s side are missing key players after picking up problems in recent games. Newcastle are still without Harvey Barnes after he picked up a muscle strain in the Magpies 3-1 FA Cup win against Bromley in January. Joelinton came off injured against Fulham and was then seen wearing a knee brace. Howe confirmed he will miss weeks of action with the issue. Sven Botman suffered another injury blow in the win…
