  1. Hopefully he'll help us unearth a Patrick Viera as opposed to a Marouane Chamakh...
  2. One of the key things we really need to improve is our early tempo. It looks like we seem happy for games to settle down and then we almost just expect things to happen. Let's go for it from the first whistle and show the same urgency we've sadly only shown in the last 10 minutes of matches lately. IMO, tempo is key. It lifts the fans and spreads belief in the players. I really hope Grezda gets the nod. Tell him to go out there and own the game as we really need some new ideas and quality in the final 3rd.
  3. The Irish Catholic thing probably does get a certain type of fan going but c'mon there are countless Irish Catholic players and managers that have not had this. Lennon could start a rammy in an empty house. Did his agent play the Irish card when he started his Bolton career? https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/neil-lennons-bolton-debut-lenny-4463594
  4. Apologies again for any insults. Ignore function utilised
  5. I tend to agree. If he is fit then he would be worth a shout. I'm not sure how long Barisic is out for? I remember a few years back Wallace was the best Scottish player on the park at Wembley (3-0 defeat) and if he could offer performances like that, surely he is a better shout than Flanagan?
  6. Your not that big on self-awareness are you?
  7. Believe me, no-one is rushing to read your posts Bill. If I could screen them I would. With regards to being upset, don't flatter yourself. I'm more bemused why a grown man would insist on being the "smartest arse" on public football forum. These forums are probably the most balanced Rangers forums online and they are known for decent debate on all things Rangers and other topics. There are things that people agree on and things that people disagree on but it's always fair. I apologise to the Mods for using a personal insult but for you to be handing out sermons about personal insults is truly laughable.
  8. Grezda is a must start for me. We need to shake up the final 3rd badly and as someone* else said on another post, we need to start getting players beyond Morelos. *apologies to whoever poster it. I can't remember who it was
  9. Is it necessary to be a twat in every post you make and infest every thread with your bile? You probably wear it as a badge of honour. Weird
  10. I thought Halliday did well last night considering he's been asked to come on and make cameo appearances.
  11. Sorry buddy. Just getting tired of all this conditional fan bollox. I support Rangers. I'm originally from Govan. They were my local team. Scottish? British? TBH I don't really care. I just want to support my team without a huge list of conditions. It seems that's what some people would impliment if they had their way. Anyhoo...I'm off topic. I'm not that into booing...
  12. Was it a Rangers fan? If so, why would they boo a guy waving a Saltire? The UB wave saltires. The official club flag wavers have done this. Are we not allowed to be "proudly Scottish" now? Confused.com
  13. On the loanees, I think you are being a tad harsh. Kent's done ok but not briiliant. Ejaria has shown promise and IMO is always looking to do something positive. They're young players so we probably have to show some patience (me included).
  14. Fair enough but we are not creating enough. Considering how much ball we have making the keeper make a few good saves isnot good enough
  15. Hopefully SG will use this as a lesson. He was at Liverpool for years and had as many lows as he did highs, so he knows the expectations of fans.
  16. Fair play to all who have managed to take a step back and add some perspective on our recent poor form. Still a bit raw for me personally tbh. I just want us to create more. If their keeper is making saves that means we are creating chances and that is not happening at the moment. We need to work out a system that gets the best out if the 5 players playing in midfield and on the flanks behind Morelos. Earlier in the season I thought we were cracking it but now I'm none the wiser about how we acheive this
  17. Well said Gary Caldwell
  18. No surprise tbh. He was sent off in his first game as Bolton manager back in the day to. Why oh why a man with previous mental health issues, as well as anger management problems want to return to football management is beyond me.
  19. I hate to sound more negative after such a shitty few results but does anyone else think SG looks knackered? Hopefully some bad lighting but to me he looks jiggered
  20. I'd go as far as to say that the league is already over. After a stuttering start, the Tims are finding their form (and goals) and we look like a team that will struggle to put a run together. If we are close to the them (5/6pts) by the game in December I will be very surprised
  21. To be fair, Katic has played but hasn't been the same since his injury. Barisic and Grezda have had injuries. The Katic one is the biggest concern. If we are crow- barring a 21 year old 5th choice CB from Forest (as part of the loan terms) in front of our own player, that would be a worry. Worral's not been poor but I don't see him as a huge step up from Katic
  22. I'm not sure if our form relates directly to the Worral/ Katic situation but what I would say is that we have done more chopping and changing than I would have hoped for. I get that it sometimes it can be horses for courses and we have had some injuries but I would have tried to keep the same team/shape as much as possible. Even tonight, changing the keeper made no sense to me.
  23. I was thinking that very thing tonight. Should we have dropped deeper to allow more space? Christ, I don't know anymore. Well frigging pissed off tbh
  24. Don't let stats fool you. We are not outplaying anybody at the moment. In the last 4 games the opposition have been happy to drop deep and give us the ball so that somewhat skews the possession stats. With regards to shots on target, that is also misleading as we are simply not making the opposing teams keepers work at all. Outplaying teams to me is getting behind their defence, creating chances and giving their keeper plenty to think about. These things have not happened in our last 4 games
