That old chesnut of dodgy Scottish keepers has just reared it's head again..Rangers keeper Cammy Bell has just inexplicably half missed a punch, when all it needed was a simple catch, and sent the ball into his own net, quality!

He punched it like a 12 year old girl

The side we had last season would have beat either of the teams & whatever side we have next season would beat rangers. Shocking standard.
Abu hamza would have got a better punch on the first goal.

How the hell were Motherwell 2/1 after already winning the first leg?

Damn, I missed that one!

Sad to see the Hun streaming out with 25 minutes to go

Mind you, it is a hell of a long way to go back to Glasgow

They missed the thier player's quality fly kick on the Motherwell player after the final whistle though

16.3 miles from Fir Park to Ibrox so not that far, but the scenes after the final whistle were quality, in a bad way you understand!

Didn't think it was that far

Mohsni certainly has a future in Thai boxing though because I doubt he'll be playing for Rangers again

So did I but I saw the Motherwell fan flick his umbrella into the face of a Rangers player trying to pick up the ball for a throw in!

I think this is partly where scotland got their reputation for bad keepers from the 70s onwards. the 2nd goal is very funny.

Before then. 1961 and Frank Haffey's hapless display in England 9 Scotland 3. Also gave birth to: 'What's the time? Nearly ten past Haffey' or 'Haffey past nine'. Denis Law will still talk about how bad he was to this day.
BBC latter day words:
Called up at the last minute for only his second international game, the 22-year-old had the kind of nightmare that every keeper dreads - fumbling shot after shot as England went 3-0 up inside the first 30 minutes, and conceding five goals in the space of 11 second-half minutes. Jimmy Greaves scored a hat-trick, with Johnny Haynes and Bobby Smith scoring two apiece.
