pete 2,499 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 Rangers forward Alan GowGow has played just one game for Rangers in his debut season Alan Gow's wretched start to his Rangers career took a turn for the worse when he picked up a red card in Tuesday's reserve fixture with Gretna. It means the 25-year-old forward will be suspended when the Ibrox team visit his former club Falkirk on 24 November. However, Gow, who was dismissed for violent conduct, was unlikely to have been in manager Walter Smith's plans. Gow's only appearance since his summer move to Rangers has been in September's CIS Insurance Cup win over East Fife. Gow scored eight goals for Falkirk last season and signed a pre-contract with Rangers in January, shortly after Smith had replaced Paul Le Guen at Ibrox. Wolverhampton Wanderers had a bid for Gow rejected by the Bairns. And the player spoke to Aberdeen and Hibernian about the possibility of a pre-contract agreement before pledging himself to Rangers. I really feel sorry for the guy i suppose he is our Derek Riordan. If we are not going to play him why did we not buy him and leave him at Falkirk for another year. He would come on further than playing for our reserves. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
mainstandbear 0 Posted November 15, 2007 Share Posted November 15, 2007 agreed. I'd like the guy to be given a chance but maybe we have to trust Walter here...he did say everyone would get a chance....Gow, Naismith, Whittaker are guys we seem to have signed for the squad and maybe for beyond this season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gribz 848 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 Agreed Pete, buying him then loaning him back to Falkirk would have been a good option. The guy hasnt even been given a run out from the bench yet Whittaker got put straight in the side for weeks 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 What's he done wrong? It's a case of WS preferring experience over youth. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted November 16, 2007 Share Posted November 16, 2007 What's he done wrong? It's a case of WS preferring experience over youth. But is it ? Whittaker is younger and no more experienced than Gow and the same could probably be said for Charlie Adam. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
