Rangers Banter Archive October 25 2017

So in the space of 20 seconds of the ball being in play we go from what should have been 2-nil up or stil 1-0 to conceding. All he had to do was put his laces through it as hard as he could. In, faster uncontrolled rebound or row Z, they wouldn't have been able to make the attacking transition so quickly. I don't see people saying Candy-arse should have his contract terminated as they are with PC, this is mass hysteria. It's a very fine line between scucess and faliure and we were so unlucky at the end there it's unbelievable. Dorrans on the park would have helped massively too, something else out of PC's control tonight. It's a missed opportunity and a chance for the red tops and know it alls to slate us again. this is a project and it's a long one, if we don't finish 2nd in the league then yes the project is failing but for now he should stay, replacing him will make things worse, who'd want the job anyway we can't pay the money that English clubs can and it's 100 times the pressure.

25 Oct 2017 22:51:24
Matt. R you serious? If you are you are your deluded. Project? You are having a laugh. The only project should be to get rid of this failure as quickly as possible

25 Oct 2017 22:58:25
Matt even if we held on for the victory it would have been papering over the cracks that tonight was shocking he is not the man to take us forward he has only won 1 home league game this season we can’t win more than 2 games on the trot it’s an embarrassment and it’s on pedro he has to go a wouldn’t give him anymore games never mind the season.

25 Oct 2017 23:14:50
I admire your optimism Matt, and I agree with the sentiment however we should never have been in the position to lose the game tonight. He went in with 2 outfield changes from Sunday, one enforced, so he falls on his sword as far as I’m concerned, this was his chance to change 4 or 5. Ryan Jack had absolutely no place deserving tonight and he responds to the managers faith with a red card. Smashing. Windass. just what has he contributed to reflect as many starts? Tavernier and Candeias on the right? Tell you what I’ll pick up opposition winger for you’s. Similar could be said for the left side. These are basics and should have been dealt with by now. I don’t doubt a Pedro’s ambition or passion for the cause but his judgement is not upto it and when I saw the team sheet tonight I knew it was sink or swim for him, unfortunately his boys have let him down tonight and I would prefer he was sacked. If he stays I’ll support the team all the way, just giving my honest assessment!

Stewart Robertson and Graeme Park must shoulder their responsibility for the appointment hold there hands up!

25 Oct 2017 23:28:40
its not mass hysteria, writing is on the wall and its only a matter of time. the longer we delay, the more damage will be done. iv been a strong supporter of pedro, nice guy but its gone too far now and the situation is irreversible.

25 Oct 2017 23:35:58
My thoughts on the penalty is why is candeias taking it in the first place because as a centrefoward you pray to get 12 yards out and clear with only the keeper to beat so why. isn't Herrera taking the penalty I am pretty sure he wouldn't have missed.

25 Oct 2017 23:57:30
This is not mass hysteria. Rangers were dire in the 2nd half on Sunday and dire in the 2nd half tonight. Midfield all but disappeared and bottle went against a team on 6 points. There has been absolutely no improvement. The project is failing, the team is no better than it was this time last year. Hearts will be physical, get the ball forward quickly and our players will not be able to cope. I thought the get rid folk were jumping the gun a few weeks back but there hAve been too many poor performances from players not up to the task. Barring a brilliant performance against Hearts, which is unlikely, Pedro should be away next week. I really hoped it would work out but it has been a disastrous appointment.

26 Oct 2017 00:28:09
Totally agree with you we just don’t have the lucky break I said to my pal what’s the chances of missing the pen and then scoring he said 5 million to one which is right just unlucky that’s all need to get the heads up and beat hearts on Saturday

26 Oct 2017 11:56:38
It doesn't matter if we beat Hearts, all it would be doing would be papering over the cracks. i'd not be surprised if he's off before the weekend

26 Oct 2017 12:01:00
Allan come on you know Saturday against the Jambos is going to be a real struggle and you cannot see us getting 3 points? Hearts will be hungry and aggressive and we cannot cope with this and the buck stops way Pedro!

Sorry but there was nothing unlucky about that last night. We struggled against the worst team in the league, couldn’t break them down and hardly tested their keeper. The penalty was very poor and barely reached the keeper. To excuse last night as unlucky is embarrassing

25 Oct 2017 22:01:51
Where to start.

Pedro has to go. I've defended him all season but enough is enough. Ryan Jack if guilty of retaliating should never play for rangers again. That's 4 red cards this season including the bounce game he's a liability. Windass is not a winger infact is he even a footballer? I think there's potential in that side but not with Pedro in charge.

25 Oct 2017 22:12:21
i have backed Pedro all the way, was raging after Sunday and try to not post too quick after a poor result while I am riled up. I reckon that's the curtain call for him now, like you say though Stu he is only part of the problem. Windass and Jack were my thoughts exactly before I saw your comment. Windarse has the cheek to say he doesn't have anything to prove, spot on mate, you don't because you will never be good enough for the jersey. Actually makes me angry now seeing his name on a team sheet. Jack is just a moron, reacts when folk are going to go out their way to stir trouble with him. On one hand we have a team of pansies with no fight at all, in the case of Jack he thinks passion is by being an angry little pr1ck. Actually despairing at the state of our club, if only the manager was the only issue but we are bloody full of them

25 Oct 2017 22:16:02
Did clubfoot not con the ref. just left before never saw it.

25 Oct 2017 22:16:45
Windass is awful and should have been moved on summer. Jack has been another disappointing signing who can't control himself. The rest not fit to wear jersey. PC was a monumental blunder. Out his depth. Too many failings to list. Should do decent thing and resign but he wont. King must act now and find money to get rid of him and appoint the right man to take club foward. No risks like pc

25 Oct 2017 22:19:36
Let's see what a manager with a bit of nous can do with these players.

Apparently 10 of the players that started for Celtic tonight were signed by Ronnie Deila and they apparently destroyed Aberdeen at Pittodrie. I'm not saying our next manager will be able to do the same but most of these players can obviously do better.

25 Oct 2017 22:57:38
We (celtic) were really sharp tonight and clinical.

Aberdeen, supposed challengers were very poor.

I will never tire of watching my team win and I'm all for a bit of a laugh but the best of the rest, ie Aberdeen, Rangers, hibs etc need to start improving to liven this league up a bit.

25 Oct 2017 23:12:45
Naz 10 of the team that beat Aberdeen weren’t even signed by deila

25 Oct 2017 22:01:23
no area of the park are we comfortable. morelos needs support. its either got to be 352 or a 4231. but we need wingers that have some sort of pace. in all honesty its not far off a full team. warburton did a better job with a 10th of the money pedro has had.

25 Oct 2017 21:58:35
Pedros tenure has to be the diggest shambles i can ever remember at Ibrox. Our season is over already and he must be sacked asap. Jacks discipline is awful and this can't go on. K8ng / The board must take control and put some pride and discipline back in our team.

25 Oct 2017 22:17:24
I will expect a statement tomorrow from king, then again probably won't.

25 Oct 2017 21:51:46
How long can this guy survive. He should have been sacked on monday morning. He is past a joke. A massive blunder. Where do you start with his failings. King has to act now. P45 pedro. Time to go.

25 Oct 2017 21:48:24
Sometimes fate plays you a crap hand and Pedro has just got his. Dorrans injured, alves suspended, jack suspended and missed penalty and 7 minutes of added time, then Burke scores. Hearts away.

Sometimes no matter how hard you want it to succeed it ain't going to happen.

Next please.

25 Oct 2017 21:53:35
Windy. you are full of wind sir!

25 Oct 2017 21:47:54
That was very hard to watch we moved the ball well and had no cutting edge in the box we then proceeded to disappear after the hour mark and invite Killie back in we rode our luck until the penalty and jack fiasco then the ball goes straight up the other end and we concede I have no words gutted.

25 Oct 2017 21:43:41
What a joke.

25 Oct 2017 21:43:15
You couldn't make this up with us, we are a shambles

25 Oct 2017 22:05:08
I think the last rant has probably lost him the players. With suspensions and injuries it looks like a championship side again. No manager will take us on unless money is there. If they do, then it will be a gamble. The board have gambled again on the cheap and again cost them. Don't believe about money spent.

No investment, no direction.

25 Oct 2017 19:21:37
Ed.
Would it be possible to do a poll to get the consensus of the readers of this page on when Pedro should go.

1. To go immediately.
2. Give him another half dozen games.
3. Before Xmas.
4. End of season.
5. Stick with him and see out his contact.

Many thanks Scott.
