I think his attitude is getting worse. Today he was gesticulating and complaining because he didn't get a pass from Holt. I would have some sympathy if it were not for the fact that he often gets passes in good positions before completely blowing his chance. He needs to sort it out. It's a team game.

Much better this week. We should have won by a few more though. We'll need to play even better to get a result next week.

That's not an attendance figure.

Nice to see a win for Dundee today.

Dundee United are guaranteed a playoff spot now. Can't go any higher than third though so they will have three chances to fail.

Good news if it happens. Am I right to think that this would be just behind the Esso garage?

Why share Phil's site?

Really? Nothing about appointing an MLS manager seems obvious to me.

Three pages of weeping and gnashing of teeth. When is someone going to debate the elephant in the room?! Is this Kappa strip better or worse than a Hummel strip?

Hypothetically, yes, but his comments don't happen in a vacuum though. The things that he tells an interviewer, and his demeanor, will undermine his authority with the squad.

Murty repeatedly puts his foot in his mouth and his comments on Bates are no exception. I'll be watching on in terror of him saying something silly in the pre-match build up to either of our next two matches.

Can you provide some examples? Preferably the ones that are causing you most distress.

I think a more appropriate sentiment is that it is a career that could end at any time. You can't be certain that an opportunity for a larger wage will arrive in the future.

Precisely. Why should any of us take our lead from the press?

The Champions League might as well be an invitational tournament now. Football supporters all over Europe should be opposing this.

You left the Vanguard Bears ... because it was too much like the SNP?! If we had a point for every time I had heard that!

Not really. We've regressed over the last month and nobody is happy about it. It makes no sense to exaggerate the problem though. If all the good work had been undone then we would be relegated. We'd also be in a worse state off the pitch too. That's not the case so why should anyone pretend that it is.

The board has delivered plenty of progress on and particularly off the park. I don't think that this 'statement' has been thought through.

This is an entirely legitimate reason for a new group.

@Dragosani Precisely. Just who would like to spread a rumour like that?

Lee Wallace and Kenny Miller are professional football players and have seniority in the squad. If either of them have problems with the manager then they have a responsibility to raise these problems is a constructive way. You are free to say whatever you like to your father.

The fact that rumours circulate is not privileged information that could only come from the club.

It's not exactly a unique opinion that TRO is expressing. Neither does it tell us any new facts.

Hard to know what to think about this. Murty is clearly working on borrowed time. I think it's fair to say that Miller and Wallace don't exactly have the trust of the support. Neither are they making a great contribution on the pitch. Not a great platform for a dressing room revolt. We already knew that we needed to replace Murty with a proper manager. We have known for a couple of years that we needed to replace Miller with a proper forward. The only revelation will be whether or not Lee Wallace has a future at Rangers. A dwindling number of supporters seems to care about him coming back into the team.

I should probably mention Morelos too. His chance would not have made a difference but it's an incredible miss. You can see that he anticipates it well. That's not enough though.
