Indeed - he looks the part.  But it makes you wonder why - with such talent 
in the wings - they had to insist in taking such a prospect as Alan Gow - 
almost totally out of Scottish football for a season - then talk about 
taking him out for another season by sending him to Sweden?

The conduct of both sides of the Old Firm when it comes to any player who 
happens to show any threat against them in league matches is quite 
despicable.

I would gladly see Rangers and Celtic continually fielding their OWN 
nurtured talent and some sort of rule introduced to avoid future Gow and 
Riordan scenarios. And subsequently the likes of Fleck are even more likely 
to get a chance.

I dont understand whats happening with Gow?? I think he could do a job for 
us but wattie doesnt seem to like him at all?
I would like to see more of our own youth coming through, like Furman etc 
they would put in a better shift than some of the other overpiad players.

He is going to Sweden? Wattie doesn't like Kris Boyd - what chance has Gow 
got?

Indeed. But as I said there should be some sort of rule put in place to 
stop Rangers and Celtic simply buying out a `threat`.

Surely the decent thing would have been for Rangers to loan Gow back out to 
Falkirk in the league run in with rules in place that he couldn't play 
against Rangers? To loan him out to a Swedish club suggests to me that 
Rangers couldn't give a toss about the bigger picture in Scottish football.
