Have you any idea how pompous that looks? 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gonzo79 15,294 Posted February 10, 2018 Share Posted February 10, 2018 (edited) Some people seem to think players can make themselves look foolish and the fans have no right to criticise. That is unrealistic, at best. We pay his wages. Many of us have invested loads of money, time, effort and emotion into supporting Rangers. Windass is entitled to act petulantly if he wants but I'm also entitled to criticise him. That's the nature of the game.

As said earlier, most of those shouting about Windass were doing so while the game was still under way. In my experience the ones with the loudest online voices are those who do plenty of speaking and the minimum of paying to attend. 4 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If people who pay my wages criticise me, I'd get a disciplinary meeting (at least) for giving them silly gestures in response. I wish I was on the salary Windass is on. He's just a thicko with some footballing talent. Edited February 10, 2018 by Gonzo79 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I know he gets a lot of stick on twitter but he put himself on there. Most fans give him stick at the games when he is garbage. The same as any other player if they are rubbish. It’s a shame he didn’t apologise properly and all this would have gone away. Its over now and he is stuck with what has happened. We can’t change it so on to today’s game! Let’s hope he has a good game, as they all do. Ayr will be right up for it. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
