trueblueal 2,117 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Just highlights the incompetence of the board over the last 3 years when they still have people in the dugout who they don't feel are capable of picking a team. If Mike Ashley was interested in the footballing side of Rangers then he should have paid the current lot off and brought in a new management team. Its really just further evidence for the SFA that Ashleys grip on Rangers is so strong he can determine team selection. I think Ashley is antagonising the SFA I'm just not sure why Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 71,859 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Sure the training will be great now that plenty of them know no matter how well they do they are 100% not starting.Excellent.Makes a change from them offering fuck all effort and starting every game doesnt it?Let's not act like the players in our team are being hard done to ffs, they are lazy overpaid bottlers who should be thankful they have been able to put our shirt on.I'd sack them all if we could afford it.

Young Bob 1,360 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 It's an absolute disgrace having to play these players.We should be playing our own players who have worked their socks off to get us 16pts behind Hearts.Maybe the likes of Calum Gallagher should be getting a game before any Newcastle duds?

Ryan_1 1,136 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Why should anyone feel sorry for McDowell? Yes he helped us to a few titles, but he's also the man who's chucked it halfway through the season. He had done absolutely nothing to change our fortunes since McCoist chucked it, we have continued to decline and Sunday showed to the world how bad we are.Is the board picking the side a terrible, shambolic thing? Yes, of course it is but let's be totally honest, I would put money on at least 4/5 of the players being better than we already have. The players who will be dropped will deserve to be dropped, there's nobody in that squad who have any sort of argument to say they deserve to play.Oh yeah kudos to McDowell for telling us how bad the board are... although only the fucking stupid would try and defend this board. We know how bad they are already, hence why an EGM is around the corner and most of the current board will be out on the arse in due course.

gers31 246 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 If that is true it could work in Kennys favour as the lads could get us back to were we belong and Kenny will take the plaudits for it. Like all the reports said when we signed the 5 lads Ashley wants us to go up and hes hand picked the best youngster they have to get us there so win win for both Kenny and Ashley Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mr RFC 696 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Maybe the likes of Calum Gallagher should be getting a game before any Newcastle duds?How do you know they're duds?Besides that i don't rate Gallagher too highly. I think he's far too over hyped by some. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
quinty 1,445 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 You mean by him picking the players that HE brought to the club? So who now thinks Ally was allowed to pick the players that came to the club? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Courtyard Bear 41,357 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Maybe the likes of Calum Gallagher should be getting a game before any Newcastle duds?Maybe you should be asking the management team why they didn't pick him for the last 2 seasons then before the so called duds turned up.

VladimirWeiss69 802 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Actually, he is no longer our manager as he resigned that post, e doesn't want the responsibility no one has replaced him, so someone has got to tall him what to do. He has got what he wished for, so there can be no complaints.Just wish he would do the honourable thing and leave without a payoff or negotiate and settle terms with the board, Cant see him doing that though.We need a manager desperately but we can't afford it due to one being on gardening leave and one probably about to go on gardening leave.Got to feel sorry for McDowall though, He has being thrown into the deep end, with all his pals gone. He isn't helping himself though by choosing the same formation line up and tactics as Ally? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
trueblueal 2,117 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Quite apart from it being stupid that these 5 are now untouchable what about the fact none of them have kicked a ball in months. If it takes them a month to bed in we could be fucked. They could be brilliant or miles off the pace. What if its the latter? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEPPS BOY 73,886 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 Hope the fans get behind them and not boo the fuck out them because of this.This It's not the players faults that the club is a basket-case.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
djbroxybear 660 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 It's a win win all round. If these lads play well and get us promoted and at the same time get themself a good move somewhere then everyone's happy. It's a short term fix that should give us a much needed boost. It's good for the fans as well. Everyone's constantly moaning about the players so let's look forward to watching a few new young talents.Can't disagree with you mate i wish we had 11, Kenny doesn't want the job he has handed in his notice he wants his £££££££.... The board should do the right thing and relieve him from the job.I'd take McCall, Davies, any cunt who can manage till the end of the season what 4 months and get rid of the Holiday Camp regime attitude.

quinty 1,445 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 'He isn't helping himself though by choosing the same formation line up and tactics as Ally?'The point is that he is not (being allowed to) choosing the formation or line-up or tactics.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted February 5, 2015 Share Posted February 5, 2015 I can only see this as a play by the board. He hands in his resignation as they're trying to force him out. Now Kenny tells the press. It's all games. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
