Thinking. We are 5 points off the top if we win in our game in hand, we are in to the last 32 again if we win in Europe and in a cup final in December. Not bad for a crap team. We have issues and it's already been highlighted that our trading model needs to get better. Yesterday was a sore one but hopefully PC and the board will move to resolve glaring issues.
1.) 27 Nov 2023 13:40:26
Given the weekend fixtures the other mob would have been thinking that there was the chance to open up a bigger gap, at least that hasn`t happened, so although it was a massive disappointment not to close the gap at least we are still in there with sniff . Clement said there would be bumps in the road and this was one but we should calm down, take the positives so far and keep moving forward like we have been doing.
2.) 27 Nov 2023 21:25:32
Windy, I'm not sure how the Board can move forward to support PC if we don't appoint a DoF ahead of the January transfer window. Looking at the players signed since Parks has been Chief Scout we haven't exactly set the heather on fire with the quality of players signed. Medicare at best!
3.) 28 Nov 2023 13:06:29
Agree to an extend but with the changes to the back room and Coaching staff looking positive one has to have hope. DofF and January window will tell.
13 Oct 2023 22:57:42
Whilst all the managerial talk continues I feel the need to raise a point . Rangers are 7 points behind Celtic. Our goals against 5. Celtic goals against 5. I said last season and it seems it is the same this season. Our front line is the issue.
1.) 14 Oct 2023 06:41:09
Crikey Windy - nothing gets past you pal ?.
2.) 14 Oct 2023 06:49:11
The thing is Celtic haven’t had their first choice back 4 in most of their games and will improve can we say the same about our defence when that’s the best we’ve got and lose the same kinda goals every season.
3.) 14 Oct 2023 06:59:03
Agreed Windy, and until the rest step up and match Sima/ Tav, we are stuffed.
4.) 14 Oct 2023 07:24:31
I asked the question 6 weeks ago were was the goals going come from to challenge. Some smart arse replied the players. Sam Lammers and Dessers were never going score enough goals to contribute to a title winning side.
5.) 14 Oct 2023 08:01:22
The defence who can't defend set pieces isn't a problem? Would be more than 5 if jack butland didn't come to collect corners. Defence is every bit as bad as the strikers tbh.
6.) 14 Oct 2023 08:17:56
1872 cheers ?.
7.) 14 Oct 2023 08:18:49
Forgetting goals for and against. We have played them at home and also aberdeen at home while they have been away to us and aberdeen away. Should never be 7 points behind at this stage.
8.) 14 Oct 2023 08:19:23
Beadleabout. Goals win games and titles and like him or not for whatever reason Colak knew where the net was - so Mr Beale fell on his own sword for binning a guy he didn't like or says didn't suit his system to bring in two planks who did fit the system - WHAT EFFIN SYSTEM WAS THAT BY THE WAY? Colak is scoring goals in Italy and being lauded by his manager! An old saying goes Only fix things when they are broken - Mc Coist and Boyd ONLY scored goals but that won us games and titles - hopefully we will see those days back when a new manages assesses all our duds and rectifies the damage Beale has caused.
9.) 14 Oct 2023 09:19:03
Stating the obvious there Windy, but you're not wrong!
Yes, Beadle Dessers and Lammers are never going to score enough goals to contribute to our quest, and both are just not good enough. Lammers gets a bit more slack as he's not a true striker, but Dessers looks nothing more than worse than average.
Has anyone checked out Dessers league goals scoring record? It's grim! 77 league goals, over 9 seasons, at 8.5 league goals on average a season, with 22 of those coming in his purple patch in 2016-17 while he was at Breda. That's 28.5% of his league goals tally coming from one season alone, 6 years ago? That's pathetic! How in God's name did anyone think signing him was going to be a good idea?
10.) 14 Oct 2023 09:35:09
Anybody that questioned Lammers and Dessers in the summer was classed as a celtic fan or someone that never knew the game on here Raisetheroofe. Maybe we knew a bit more than some gave us credit for. Colak apparently couldn't play the Morelos way (whatever that even means) .
11.) 14 Oct 2023 09:55:50
Agree on Dessers, what we’ve seen so far is woeful. Lammers I wasn’t excited about when he signed but then I had a change of heart and thought he could be a good player, looking like I got that one wrong. Colak I always liked and think it was a mistake to get rid of him, especially when we didn’t upgrade for better. Jury is still out on Danilo but he looks like he could come good. Shame about the injury. .
12.) 14 Oct 2023 09:57:26
Blue Floyd Colak barley starts in Italy division two, beadle surely you can see Colak and Morelos are different types of cf.
13.) 14 Oct 2023 10:28:10
Yes but we can't keep using the Morelos way beale. We should've found a way to play Colak.
14.) 14 Oct 2023 10:36:43
BAF56 - He scored 20 odd goals for us with limited game time last season and at least you could see he had a football brain (so that was good enough for me) - unlike Mr Beale who personally I think vastly underestimated the task he had in front of him - stability with the correct manager is now needed and I will gladly support some immediate pain for future gain - unfortunately Beales buys and tactics showed great naivety and somewhat arrogance too!
15.) 14 Oct 2023 10:57:36
Colak played something like 8 / 10 games for us without scoring and had a dip in form .
He was getting slaughtered on here .
This site makes me laugh … such selective memory’s
Like a bunch of old grannies in the laundry house ?.
16.) 14 Oct 2023 11:23:22
The issue is Colak did not want to play or train.
17.) 14 Oct 2023 11:38:15
The old "I used to play the game" crap doesn't wash with me Beadle. These "ex players" have got a helluva more wrong on here than right with their "expert" knowledge.
18.) 14 Oct 2023 12:07:47
Colak started well, but faded badly, and was no better than Dessers. that's my opinion. Anyway, he is history.
19.) 14 Oct 2023 13:04:37
You're absolutely correct BizzmyBrox, with the exception that Colak could actually score goals (what a striker is meant to do), he is no better than Dessers! ?
Honestly, I love this place! ?.
20.) 14 Oct 2023 13:05:59
Colak is a far better goalscorer than dessers BizzmyBrox, by a considerable distance ? Shouldn't have been sold imo and nobody will make me think different, he's a terrific, natural finisher ?.
21.) 14 Oct 2023 13:07:31
Beadle but you weren't on here we they players you mentioned were signed must have been one of your other user names.
22.) 14 Oct 2023 13:23:50
Windy
That's he'll truism old fruit. Our previous didn't have where with all to get defence and filled attack with dubious. I'm still waiting for Sima to step up.
23.) 14 Oct 2023 13:29:40
Big Dado, Butland is part of the defence and as a goalkeeper should be coming out to collect crosses that is what we were screaming at Greegs for not doing. Every team would lose more goals if their keeper wasn`t doing his part . that's why all the top teams make sure they have a top keeper .
24.) 14 Oct 2023 13:37:43
P. S. were does it say about when players are signed? It says about 6 weeks ago and because I don't keep track to the day I posted that could mean anything from 4 to 6 weeks ago. Some of us have busy lives that doesn't revolve around Rangers banter page.
25.) 14 Oct 2023 13:48:48
Bizzmybrox colak had 13 goals at this stage last year, compared to dessers who has 3 of which 2 were deflections and am sure one was a penalty. To say colak is no better than dessers is at best laughable mate. To think where we could be if we only had someone that can actually score goals.
26.) 14 Oct 2023 13:51:17
Colak is at his 12th club since making his professional debut in 2013. That says all we need to know. He was never going to stay at us for long. He’ll be at a different team next season as well. He didn’t win a trophy with us and he’s history so let’s move on.
27.) 14 oct 2023 14:22:47
i wonder how many shankland would have scored by now, its a thought innit.
28.) 14 Oct 2023 14:23:03
Colak has started one game since his move to Parma I wish we would just move on from him he was a bad apple and we have to play and unfit injured Alfredo instead.
29.) 14 Oct 2023 15:24:40
Someone mentioned Beale not liking Colak because "couldnt play the morelos way" i think that comment sums up a big part of our problem too many of that squad are programmed if you like over a long period to get it to morelos, kent or tav. Now its just Tav. We let tav take every corner and every freekick. Its like we've forgotten how to play or find other solutions when we need to find goals another way. Tav is good with his head, in my opinion he should be in the box at set pieces.
A fullback at rangers should never be top scorer every season, pens or not. New manager has a tough job on his hands and another rebuild next summer.
30.) 14 oct 2023 15:52:24
absolutely correct dado, morelos way won nothing, beale way won nothing,
kent morelos became a joke attack, we should have played to colak in the box and stuck with it until we bought a new scorer, nfortunately beale wasted the money.
31.) 14 Oct 2023 19:00:08
Shankland has 1 league goal this season hardly setting the league on fire now is he.
03 Sep 2023 14:17:31
Well that was fun. To be honest an absolute brutal game and devoid of flair. There is a team there but this manger who recruited them doesn't have a clue how to use them. New board and hopefully ruthless in its approach as he needs replaced. I never wanted him as I felt it was a step back. He recruit players supposedly they were after 3-4 years ago, step back. He knows he's fecked just to look at him on the touch line.
To be honest struggling big time to see a shape, a positive spark that bodes well for the future months. Horrendous.
1.) 03 Sep 2023 15:06:27
Agreed mate, never wanted Beale, was a lazy and easy option from the board at the time, we need to pull the trigger now, get rid and get someone else in. I’d take souness to steady the ship right now.
03 Sep 2023 11:33:22
Thoughts on team. Jack in because he is trusted. Sterling that's a surprise and to be honest would rather Cantwell more forward. Happy to have roofe.
30 Aug 2023 22:08:52
Well after that I'm off to my pit. I believe we need to have a season of domestic success and that starts with the league cup. The league is a must and a win on Sunday and it's reset. Lose then serious questions will be asked regarding our tactical genius. Good players playing a woeful system that relies on full backs who are becoming stale. Yet Tav again showing the forwards how it's done.
No positives tonight but we do have good keeper.
1.) 30 Aug 2023 23:28:20
You forgot to say yet again Tav at fault for at least 2 goals maybe 3. i'm not fooled by the goal scoring but it certainly shows how poor our striking departnent is. Roofe must play on Sunday and i think i have seen enough of Dessers. Absolute DUD!
21 Apr 2024 13:20:53
Nope. I never said that. Shankland is a penalty box player and at times we need that. Not looking for pace but a threat, cause CH issues etc. An addition not the overall solution.
21 Apr 2024 12:45:47
Anyone thought about management being approached by a players agent and being asked the question. Would expect it to happen to allow the player to plan also.
21 Apr 2024 09:46:58
My issue bar72 is our trading model selling Patterson and Bassey did nothing stopping us losing maybe 3 champions league direct entry. We should be selling raskin, hagi, McCausland and Cantwell for profits. As well as Butland. Promote Rice etc but we don’t or won’t. Makes business sense. We want to keep a 32 year old right back at the expense of a 24 year old, because he scores more than our forward line. Shankland gives us something different and takes penalties.
Our trading model doesn’t mean every player we bring in has to have a sell on value increase, if so we have a major issue. We have spent and are about to spend millions on projects that have and will increase our revenue for ffp. However the club is built on traditions and has been built on success. I am old enough to have seen a lot and the swings and roundabouts that football brings. However in the last 7 years we have won the equivalent of a treble, a treble. We are not a European heavy weight, we don’t have a mentality of you don’t win nothing but great European nights. 2 horse race in Scotland and we are second. Been patient and waiting on the success that our board said would be delivered, well that’s run out.
20 Apr 2024 20:06:00
I agree with Paul. We are certainly not that far behind.
20 Apr 2024 20:00:30
Aberdeen scored twice today from crosses to back post. We can’t do that with a 100 corners. Different type of player to what we have.
22 Apr 2024 19:31:49
Aye I was one and still think we need better. ?But played well on Saturday.
14 Apr 2024 20:13:45
The minimum required. Free players salaries bring in 3-4 players. Sell Hagi, Butland, Davis, Dessers and Lammers. If need be loan out McDowell, Lawerence and Wright. That should allow players to be brought in. I would keep the younger players as that buys into our trading model.
Now Tav and Connor. I would sell both but they won’t probably.
At Christmas we needed an overhaul and we still do but we are still in with a small shout.
02 Apr 2024 19:38:10
Their moaning he is going to give us everything and we are moaning he’s going to give them something. who'd be a ref. ?.
02 Feb 2024 12:40:58
MPH. The great Liverpool team of the 70”s lived by that Mantel, thus Souness approach. Don’t concede. Never bought into you score 3 well score 4 crap.
28 Jan 2024 08:59:35
Agree mate. Front to middle still struggling. We definitely need more guile.
