Issues log
- We clearly can't play the same formation every game, it gives opposition managers great preparation. This is basic sense.
- If we don't sign Bates, that will be a disaster, he is on our books right now.
- We are tolerating shocking player attitudes, the players gave up on Saturday.
- We have a rookie manager.

Agree on all bar Bates. Painfully ordinary. Not good enough for Raith Rovers but good enough for us?

You might be right, but we shouldn't have to pay too much and I see potential.

Don't knock Bates he's good needs to improve yes and he will I'm sure of it . I would have him in every time way before Alves or Cardoso couple of duds in my opinion. Bates is strong brave decent speed and can only get better with age well on his side.

Bates is rubbish. If he was foreign he's be ridiculed. Much like Murty, who has a suspiciously similar record to Pedro before him.

I long for the day when names like Bates and Murty are a distant memory. No disrespect to Murty, who tries his hardest and is a great clapper (almost non stop for every match) but this is Glasgow Rangers.

Bates is shocking people keep saying he will improve but cardoso is a dud yet there only 2years age difference between them so if bates is rubbish but will improve how will cardoso not? David bates would never get into Portuguese under 21s or 23 teams that's for sure yet cardoso does and Alves is in the Portuguese national team played at the euros in the semi finals against wales just a year and a half ago yet bates is better than both of them that's laughable. None of them have been great but bates is the worst of the 3 I'd say and I totally agree if he was foreign he would be getting pelters.

He is very young, built like a tank and got motm against the Tim's. All he needs to do is hoof the ball up the pitch when under pressure.
Potential is what you make of it, if he focuses on his game he could be great.

Deanobear, the diffrence between bates and the players you mention is quite simple. the players pedro brought from abroad have never played football the way it is played in scotland, the foriegn players were used to a more relaxted style of football, in our league its all about kick and run, not much to it, which makes me think we in scotland have got it wront, that's how we haven't been to a euro tourny or world cup for a long time, even our clubs get gubbed in euro just about every time, the s. f. a. are neding to rip it up and start again, maybe with some retired european players to keep them right, how many of the current s. f. a. board members have played football to an exceptional standered.

BAtes has been exceptional since the turn of the year and had a lot to do with our small run of form suddenly he gets injured we looked weak in the old firm and can't keep boy d out she the boy is average please stop turning on everyone as soon as I hear some rumours he doesn't want to sign the it's embarrassing the boy has been the best c b in the league
