buster.

We are on the same wave length 😁 Mutual Consent by a Thousand Cuts -------------------------- edit Steven Gerrard (less M.Beale) might be avaiable soon If Klopp goes could Beale replace him with SG as his number 2 ? 😁

A Gradual and Painful Demise by Giovanni Van Bronckhust

Tillman looked he was trying to adapt his game and was putting himself about more than we have seen. Determined not to let the game pass him by. Very determined run through an awful defence for an important goal. Worth persevering (as a 10) with until better options are available. Aslong as we win, the manager will swerve any such questions easily.

A positive First time in 2022 we have won four consecutive League games. edit We won three at the end and another three at the start of this campaign but I consider them seperate for this count.

Motherwell were awful, we were slightly better. Tillman and three points were the only positives.

Tillman has done enough to keep his place. More endeavour from him than is the norm.

Forget the game, three points will do.

Davis for Arfield is sensible at this stage and won't stop us going forward

Great goal but Motherwell defending looking like under 19s

Aye Sakala for Kent Morelos for Matondo Yilmaz for Barisic McCann for Arfield

Endeavour but little quality. Wednesday it was Champions League Finalists. Today, a team beaten in Conference qualifiers home and away by Sligo Rovers.

I agree, too many games pass him by.

Many say he has been poor because of being put on the right wing. Let us see how he performs today in what looks like being his favourite position.

Motherwell 0 Rangers 3 Colak _-----------_ Bonus for what minute Davies goes off injured ?? 37

Two wingers and Tillman as a 10. Only one DCM? Away from home!! Gio is taking the game to his detractors.

Yes, he has ability but I would much rather Lowry get a chance as the 10 (obviously not talking about today), rather than Tillman.

I watched the Gio presser yesterday and it might just be confirmation bias on my part, but it felt like he was going through the motions.

The short to medium term outlook is bleak IMO and the main reason behind that is finance. We could get lucky of course. Make a really good managerial appointment and get the recruitment spot on. I said a few weeks ago that this was beginning to look like the Celtic/Lennon implosion. Not exactly but along the same lines. Well, we obviously should have consolidated on 55 with 56 BUT they got lucky with their managerial appointment and recruitment* and complicated what should have been a shoe-in for us. *I refer back to finances. Their luck was alot to do with the amount of money thrown at it.

It's the second one against Celtic that is the most damaging IMO, closely followed by the immediate non reaction against Ajax. What they showed was a manager who couldn't coach or/and motivate a group of players. Firstly at Parkhead. We knew what was coming, the players hadn't taken on board the coaching (according to post match interview) and it ended up a lot wose than the Feburary debacle. (No) Reaction at Ajax Nuff said.

I don't doubt that Ross Wison could write down a list of very good candidates but the problem will be how many on that list would want to come to Rangers with the current squad, injury list and transfer budget (less pay off to Gio and staff). A few wouldn't want to know until next summer when they can reshape the squad. This squad of players will get most managers the tin tack. An inconsistent mentality runs through too many players, who have been here too long. I agree that the line in the Chris Jack article looks like his opinion. It could be a steer from another opinion closer to the action, who knows. But bottomline, I don't think it is too much of a secret where Gio is going from here. It is only a matter of timing (between Monday and the end of the season ??).

When trying to be clever, get it right or you look stupid!

There is knowing who you might want and there is knowing that who you want has reacted positively to a preliminary conversation.

If true, it would suggest that we already know who will take his place.

Currently, it is what it is. Going forward, they very much do and are part of the reason for the board's current actions. They are preparing the ground and it isn't what we are accustomed to.

I think we are somewhere close to a before and after point. Certainly in terms of competing with the elite. The realisation hits now, even if that line was crossed a fair way back. Running the club in a sustainable way with the new FFP regulations is effectively a double whammy. The strict looking regulations being one part and secondly, the fact we aren't used to being run in a sustainable manner.
