Bruno Alves refused to sit on the bench vs Hamilton according to the rags.
Might not be true, but I took pelters on FB before the Hamilton game for saying Bruno should be in the squad over Wilson or Mcrorie. Mcrorie is some prospect but playing a CB of that age in such an inconsistent team, it was inevitable he would make an error like he did against Hamilton and the team end up paying for it.
The young lad should be used when required and make subs appearances. Rangers aren't in a position to be messing about with youth at this moment in time unfortunately. we've got a Portuguese international picking up good money, he should be playing games when fit.

TBH I would drop Wilson before McCrorie. Wilson is slow, very average and won’t improve. I also thought he got caught out against Hearts a few times however they didn’t capitalize on it. Far better to have McCrorie alongside Alves. There have been plenty other players who have been poor yet still get a game under Murty. Anyone who prefers Wilson to Alves isn’t manager material

Agree 100% Brian.

FYI, I remain hopeful that the board will get this decision correct and I back them to do it. No matter who is appointed it’s going to split the support.
If they go for McIness or McLiesh then guys like me will be disappointed, if they go for a left field appointment then the the guys shouting for a Manager with SPL experience will be raging, it’s a no win situation for the board do they have to block out the noise and go with what they think after the interview process.
None of the candidates mentioned so far are above an interview in my opinion so if they aren’t up for one then we should move on!

We should always play our best players if fit. according to Murty he picked up a back injury. so what's the truth?
the quicker we get a decent manager the better. this nonsence with Kenny Miller and now Alves wouldn't have happened in the Jock Wallace, Smith or Souness era. players have too much power now

Agree about withdrawing Wilson before McCrorie but was thinking could McCrorie poss fill in at LB if Beerman and Thompson are being overlooked? Which I do not know WHY! If they were tied up with Development Squad duties which stopped them from being included in First Team then after Hodsons last Performance, If Elton is not available then Murty must male sure that either one of the Youngsters can be fielded! Like I said with Alves back in then imo I would put McCrorie at LB anyone but Hodson!

To be honest I still think our strongest Partnership in Defence is Alves and Cardoso! We do need to give McCrorie Games tho, only have Alves for 1 more Season and I'm thinking we might be on the look out for an experienced CH as a pairing of a potential Cardoso and McCrorie is still on the young side?
