So we sell Tav and magically we become successfully? 

 

All out ills are down to Tav and Tav alone? 

 

Tav time is coming to an end, but can think of at least a dozen players who deserved to be chopped before him.

 

(Disclaimer - I have said on numerous occasions that if the Saudi interst in Tav is genuine than we have to sell him z but we can't force him to leave). 

No one said we will magically become successful, come on....

I was under the impression that Raskin was to be the ready-made replacement for Davis. that is, a C/DM that knows his job, plays in his position and took the responsibility off the centre-halfs in playing the ball out of defence and up to the front. Jack could do that too, but not at the level of Davis, but he's still IMHO the best DM that we have at the club. The use of Lawrence, Dowell and Lundstram in these roles backfired heavily on us, and while Diomande (how can a thumb injury keep a professional player from playing?) looks good, he's somewhat erratic when it comes to consistency. Having him and Raskin playing in CM might work, if these chaps finally get some playing time together. 

 

Aside from tactics, the amount of injuries to important players and some signings never really get going has seriously hampered any improvement this season. Given how tight the league is, this sort of thing can quickly break a "season's neck".

 

Defense-wise, Ridvan, Sterling, and Souttar should stay, but we do need improvements in the summer, including back-ups. Hence, throwing away this season may set us back even more, given that automatic CL group participation is on the menu ... mainly thanks to our runs in Europe (oh the irony).

it's sticks in my craw that Keltic would benefit from automatic qualification for the CL, given that the co-efficient was earned entirely by us, while they did hee-haw about improving it.

It's our own fault.

OK. We've had nearly 24 hours for reflection. Time to throw off the sack cloth and look ahead to better times. As the good book tells us:

 

We are afflicted in every way, but not crushed; perplexed, but not driven to despair;

Corinthians 4:8

So what will it lead to? Marginal improvement? More of the same? Further regression?

If we sell Tav over the Summer, I have absolutely no doubt we will win everything next season.

Aye, but Paul didn’t support the Rangers.

I've got a funny feeling the manager might put his Jacket on and walk away he might see it as there's no point flogging a dead horse he's only damaging his own future in management
