Rangers boss Ally McCoist warns fans to prepare for 'bumpy ride' in the Championship

McCOIST has been the target of Gers' fans criticism following the opening day defeat to Hearts but says there are a lot of tough days ahead as the look to book a return to the top flight.

ALLY McCOIST admits Rangers fans should get ready for a bumpy ride this season but insists the only thing that matters is sealing a return to the top flight.

The Ibrox boss has endured criticism after the defeat to Hearts in their Championship opener and there were even grumbles after the Petrofac Training Cup win over Hibs.

Gers aim to get back on track at Falkirk tonight but McCoist said: “It’s going to be a bumpy ride, it was a bumpy ride on Sunday. We need to smooth things over and get moving again.

“It’s a long journey this season but most fans know it will be tougher. The majority of teams we’re playing are full-time, they’re better quality than those in the last two seasons.

“We’re disappointed but we don’t go crazy when we win and don’t get too down when things don’t go our way. If you treat victories and defeats with a similar level of sanity then you’ve got a chance.”

He reckons winning titles against part timers was a great achievement and now it suits, suddenly there's a big difference between full time and part time.

He can't have it both ways.

If him and the players "dont get too down after a loss" there is something far wrong.

Especially on opening day at home.

That is coming from a man (and a team) in the unique position of a loss having no consequences.

Fuck sake they have been telling us for 2 years theres not that big a leap between divisions.he also asked for his team to be more consistent after 1 game and we fuckin lost it.

He's a bare faced liar now.

He and his players preached about how the difference was next to nothing when we were in the 3rd and 2nd division and now he comes out with this?

He needs to shut up and gtf

How will the second best paid squad in Scotland cope playing against fellow full time teams? Our poor players and management have got it tough this year. Gies peace Ally. Drop the excuses and sort the team out or get out the door and let somebody else fix it for you.

He can fuck off with this full time pish. Our budget & squad is far better than the rest of the league and most of the premiership. Yes we can't expect to win every game and will accept a dodgy result here or there but a bumpy ride suggests it's going to be a regular occurrence.

I really wish he would stop opening his mouth and treating us like were idiots.

Is he on something? How fucking daft can you be to say "most teams we play are full time" when WE ARE A FUCKING FULL TIME TEAM! And the best paid one in our league by fucking miles. He completely devalues us at every turn. Can you imagine Jock Wallace saying something like that or even Walter? No chance.

We used to play teams like Barca in europe and the most our managers would say is "Barca are favourites" but then they would say something along the lines of "but we have every confidence in our ability and believe we can beat them" we were always confident. Now you get Ally who acts like Forfar are the same as barca and says things like "We might be favourites but theyre not as much of a diddy team as people make out theyve got a good team and it will be a tough game for our boys" shooting the confidence of the fans and players out the water.

Hes a bottle merchant, scared shitless and needs to pack his bags and fuck off. Im at the point I want him gone from Ibrox completely and to have nothing to do with Rangers, folk say he should be involved with PR and media?! Look at how he talks to the fucking media, lets them away with murder while painting Rangers and the players as fucking pussies! Im so sick of cringing at everything that comes out his mouth he treats us like fucking fools.

Seconded. Every interview he does reeks of hypocrisy and either ignores the fans concerns or completely contradicts what he said a couple of weeks ago. The fans need some closure on this soon, either McCoist answers his critics by showing a little tactical nous, tells the fans his plans and long term goals for the club and how he plans to achieve this with pishy 2 hour training sessions and matches that look like we've never kicked a ball all preseason.

Completely baffling. Give us some insight Ally, as right now, it doesn't appear you know how to get a team playing in a basic system, our training methods look prehistoric, players never get dropped or rested. No wonder it's a bumpy ride with a complete and utter disrespect for what the fans wanted out of this journey.
