Davie P 4 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 John Fleck contributed to his own downfall. He lived in a house on his own and lived on a diet of nights out and pot noodles. Smoked like a chimney as well. Agreed, but don't think that would have happened under MW. I get the impression that he does provide the "father figure" image to the young players, and perhaps John Fleck would have benefited from that type of guidance. At the time, I really believed that he would be the next big thing out of Scotland and wonder if he looks back now with regret about his lifestyle choices and the (potentially) wasted career. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
calscot 0 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Nothing has went wrong for McKay it is on the up and up what it shows is how bad McCoist and McDowall really were for us. In what way? That's just a backwards way of thinking. So if the a player developed during McCoist's tenure is good, McCoist is bad, and if the player is not so good, then McCoist is bad? How does that work? Is McCoist proven again to be bad due to Lewis McLeod being good? McKay was developed by the coaches at Rangers - then McCoist debuts guy in the SPL at age 17, plays him 41 times at 18 with his form being up and down, then sends him out on loan for two seasons to help him mature. Warburton comes along and tries him in the team and is a great player. Yeah, it really shows McCoist to be shit... Just what did the former management team do wrong by producing arguably our best player? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bearman 9 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Barrie is really developing into a top class player for us, I don't see any of the youngsters playing in the youths, so can't comment on the up-and-coming, anybody know of players of potential, that have a real chance to show for us next season? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Darthter 542 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 Is it not the media up here who start with these inflated values of Celtic players? Wonder when they'll start doing it for us! It doesn't matter where it starts.....it's about getting a figure out there. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ser Barristan Selmy 222 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) It will be interesting to see how the new regime deals with player interest. I'm hoping for a huge improvement on the later years of the Murray regime where everything but the kitchen sink was available for a pittance.

RANGERRAB 3,741 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 (edited) Just give it a rest. McCoist got this completely wrong. One of many. McKay was out on-loan for most of 'Project McCoist'. Perhaps he's seeing the benefit now. Others weren't so fortunate Edited April 21, 2016 by RANGERRAB 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

calscot 0 Posted April 21, 2016 Share Posted April 21, 2016 One of many.McKay was out on-loan for most of 'Project McCoist'. Perhaps he's seeing the benefit now. Others weren't so fortunate Ha ha, like I said, the pantomime logic on here is that if a player is really good it proves McCoist is shit and if a player doesn't make it, it proves McCoist is shit. Pity Lewis McLeod was so unfortunate... If McCoist puts players out on loan he's shit, if Warburton does it, he's magic. Which of our teenagers has Warburton played regularly? None. His record on the three loans is pretty mixed, but if Oduwa or Zelalem become great players after leaving Ibrox, it will NOT prove MW is bad. If most of our current teenagers don't make it, it won't prove Warburton is bad. If our players come back from loan and play better, it will not prove Warburton is bad. The same applies to all managers, including McCoist. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
