trueblue68 2,497 Posted April 12, 2014 Share Posted April 12, 2014 Maybe the rules should be changed similar to Gridiron where a guy can come on and take a freekick/corner then fucks off again back to the bench. I was planning on saying we should make a quick sub when we get a free kick outside the box Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ozblue 4,331 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 I was planning on saying we should make a quick sub when we get a free kick outside the box That virtually happened against my team in 1979. My centre half clobbered one of the opposing midfielders about 5 yards from the edge of the box and the Ref (correctly) gave him a straight red card.Before I could get my substitute defender on as cover, they brought their sub on and he immediately cracked a missile from all of 23 yards past my 'keeper even before he had got his defensive wall set up. My team got the bollocking of their lives for letting them take that free kick so quickly. It wasn't any brilliant tactical move by the opposition manager to put on a dead ball specialist ( as your plan is), but it sure fucking worked and had me frothing at the mouth....but your suggestion certainly has merit in certain circumstances.

If only...McCulloch and Mohsni would only be on for corners as well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Naw,Eric....It's only the guy taking the corner/free kick that can come on.If we go your route the laws would have to be changed so we have two different teams depending if we are defending/attacking Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

theiconicman 2,947 Posted April 13, 2014 Share Posted April 13, 2014 Decent back up at left back, no more. Should never get a start any where else i.e. left mid. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Figo 91 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 He plays well at the level we are at and lets face it, is one of the lowest earners at ibrox. He plays his heart out and gives 110% so im happy enough for him to stay on the wage he is on..bigger issues need addressed than stevie smith.

OlegKuznetsov 10,816 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 He fell asleep at the first goal and was slow coming out that ended up playing Robertson onside. Apart, I thought he did ok and at least set pieces would suggest he's practicing something at training. Unlike Aird's corners!He did, but so did Mohsni, so had he got it right there was still one guy not on message. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RD.1872 890 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Went and signed him and our management team couldn't spot the boy Robertson at Queens Park last season who is 10x the player. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
simplythebest 11,453 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Fair play he can take a free kick and we've not really had anyone that can for a while. But he's a rotten player on the whole and just not needed for where we are Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

graeme_4 34,000 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 He's very average. He's older, now devoid of any pace, with a dreadful injury record, no potential for a sell on fee and is probably on a decent wage with either 1 or 2 years still to run on it - he is everything wrong with our / Ally's signing policy. But he hit one decent freekick, which the keeper should have saved anyway, so now he's amazing. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

stu43rigger 327 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Was finished along time ago, and baffled why Ally signed him.free signing and on a very modest wage, was only ever signed as a back up for WallaceAm disappointed to see so many on his case, the guy came back because he felt he owed us something for giving him his breakthrough in football, I thought those who stuck by us during our journey back to the top would be given a break Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

elephants stoned 2,994 Posted April 14, 2014 Share Posted April 14, 2014 Stevie's been better recently but that's not hard, still not needed as we must have a LB (Sinnamon?) at youth level that can step in occasionally for Wallace the odd time he's injured.
