A get all the hate for Tav right now but if he goes we will struggle we ain't getting a full season out of sterling he gets a pass a lot because he gives good performances but has quite a bad injury record we don't have another RB other than them 2.

Tabs wages could pay for 2 players. I guess with window shut options would be limited.
07 Sep 2024 08:36:48
yes we do, the Dutch boy we brought in on loan has mainly played as a right back.
07 Sep 2024 08:41:28
The new defender ( nickname needed for posts I will never get spelling right ) can play RB.
07 Sep 2024 08:51:23
The Dutch boy we brought in plays right back.
07 Sep 2024 09:05:04
We struggle with Tav so why would we be worse off?
07 Sep 2024 09:39:50
but you've never seen him play so he may not be better. I think he played CB for Austria Wien last season. how do we know we won't get a season out of Sterling. he has had some niggles but he doesn't get a run of games because he has been used as cover in positions which require more mobility and running than RB. his body will take time to condition to that.

The treatment of him is disgraceful. The guy confronting him should be ashamed of himself. Imagine someone coming to your work to lay out where you went wrong that day. I take it that guy goes through life as a shining example of mankind? I seriously doubt that. If we had got our manager right a few years back this wouldn't be happening. Beale. Warburton and pedro were never footballers to me getting one would have been questionable but three then that tells me the board are clueless. Money wasted on changing managers and players so often is hitting home now and tav is to blame? Aye nae bother the board will move him on and gladly blame him for all the players he bought, the managers he signed, the court cases he brought to the club and the business deals he signed and i can't believe on his days off tav didn't redevelop ibrox and expand it to 70k seats. While we are at it let's look into tavs involvement in the 2012 fiasco surely when tav was at school he had something to do with Murray and his mismanagement. Seriously the guys crime is getting older. I used to run 5k under 15 mins when i was in the army 30 years ago i'm stuck on 23 mins i'm not going to kill myself over it getting old happens. If tav had better players around him he'd look better if we had a replacement he'd be phased out but we don't have any of them. Tav stays he's available and its his fault. Give the man a break. Yes he's the captain yes we would all have wanted more trophies so would tav. The man was signed in a lower league how many players played for us in a lower league and won the league to be Scottish champions and played in a European final. Answer;- no one in our history. Could tav have left 100% but he stayed. Why? An easier life the love of fans? No a love of the club. i'm raging with his treatment i would fight anyone who i seen confronting him like that same with the gaffer. Did anyone confront advacaat after 5-1 and 6-2 defeats. Would you have done that to jock Wallace, john grieg or players in the early 80's when we were crap. No youd have got leathered by the managers or the players. Socail media creates a bravery that is deluded and false add cocaine and alcohol and everyone is charles Bronson hard and an expert on everything too. I love rangers but i'm embarrassed by some of the comments and the fans as much as i am with the constant mismanagement at board level. To the board you lead follow or get out the way you have no solutions and this your making. Why is park jnr there other than his own bravado. Pedro and beale were they not his ideas well enough is enough. Players and managers are challenged because of the board and they should go.

I agree Angus a lot hanging on these two new players and the Moroccan lad who hasn’t played a full 90 minutes yet.
I hope they hit the ground running and turn out to be good players for us, time will tell.
07 Sep 2024 10:21:38
Devine, balogun and the new guy all play right back, throw in the guy who is and was bought to be replacement RB, Sterling, plenty of cover, keeps playing Tav, then PC needs his head examined as we struggle when he plays, no matter how some try to dress it up.
07 Sep 2024 10:25:36
There should be no hate for any Rangers player by our support, much less, the captain. You may think he has had his time with us, that he is underperforming or, in some cases, that he has never been any good but a player that has played for us for that length of time, hardly missed a game, has scored so many important goals and only cost the princely sum of £200,000 deserves far more than hate from our support . Personally I`ve always rated him however I do feel that time has caught up with him and maybe it is time for him to move on, it happens to everybody. I would hate to think that he will leave because of the behaviour of morons personally abusing him, what a sour way to end his relationship with the club that would be.
07 Sep 2024 10:30:41
Sterling should be first choice RB. Clear for all to see.
07 Sep 2024 10:38:43
Maybe even as bad as Tav can be - he could still be better than the other options.
07 Sep 2024 10:49:04
You would think moving Tav on would be of benefit financially (be that for an out of contract player like Skov, Alzate, klaasen etc) … as the salary alone would help and I’d imagine a fee of some kind. Bearing in mind Tav also has to want to go… and let’s face it no one here really knows hand on heart if he does (pretty sure he’s ridden many a wave of rage, smiles, anger and more in his 10yr rangers stint already)
As with many I believe we have cover in both Sterling and Kasanwirjo for RB so maybe there is the luxury of a new forward thinking player.
Particularly as I don’t think the Hagi situation is going to work itself out any time soon.

is Fork you are saying Devine is better than Tav and Balogun off the back of 1 or 2 good RB game; he can do a turn but don't think he is a natural RB. If you know why the new lad was bought as RB then great but he hasn't played there in the last season and a bit so not sure that is where they see him playing. Sterling according to some can't play a full season where Tav is rarely injured. so we have 3/ 4 players who can as you say cover but there would be no consistent pic and even if there was it wouldn't be long before they get blamed for something. Not saying Tav should play just want to put some balance from the others side; a sort of devil's advocate approach.
07 Sep 2024 11:44:33
They can cover no problem aye devine still learning, and i never said he was better, but no mistake Sterling's natural position is RB and that is why he was bought, also gd utility player; new guy was bought as widely reported he can play across the back four. No worries bud we all have our thoughts, but tav fir me us done mate???.
07 Sep 2024 12:53:59
Livibear wanting to fight anybody that abuses tav, goes on to mention people on social media taking drink and drugs and thinking there hard ? livi you want to fight everyone without drink/ drugs what's your problem mate? ?.
07 Sep 2024 13:11:12
Angus they are all better defenders than him 100%.
