RFCRobertson 11,778 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Today is the last day Dominic Ball will be able to play for us, since the next match is against his parent club (Tottenham hotspurs) he won't be eligible for selection and after that in the Scottish cup final, he's suspended due to picking up a yellow card in the semi-final against some "hot shot" team, can't remember their name. So just want to say a big thank you to the lad, he's been a great player and I really do hope he's back playing with us in some capacity soon. For a lad only starting to learn his trade, I'd say he's going to go on and be a really big success Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RangersMedia 35,961 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 He has so many positive attributes but the one thing he has to work on if he wants to make it at Spurs in the EPL is his decision making. I see him going back out on loan next season (hopefully to us). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Monk 3,207 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I guess its only fair that both Warburton and Stubbs will be missing a ball for the final Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NeoGeo7 10,518 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Why wouldn't he be eligible for a closed doors non competitive game? I know most loan deals have this clause but not sure how it affects friendlies. given we played Spurs at the start and the end and I think the loan of Ball worked out well (and given the managers close ties with Spurs) anyone think this is the start of something between the clubs? If so can we get Pritchard on loan next year please? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
siamthedanger 2,855 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Hopefully be here next season. A better defensive player than both Wilson & Kiernan. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

NeoGeo7 10,518 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 Just now, Big Al II said: Eligible or not he wouldn't be played. Whole point to is to prepare for the cup final True, but will the starting XI for the final play a full 90 mins? Then again the subs for the final would probably get brought on so unless there are complications during the game it probably is his last game today.

I don't think either Spurs manager or Mr Warburton would put him in that position anyway. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah guess I was just looking at the technicalities rather than the practicalities.....can't argue with the fact he's done a great job this year, been our utility man and is a fine pro.

AlBear. 8,499 Posted May 1, 2016 Share Posted May 1, 2016 I genuinely don't see all the fuss over him. He's not bad and looks a solid young pro, but he has a long way to go to deserve the level of adulation some on here give him. Best of luck to him, I'm not convinced he'll back as I don't think he'll get as many games as he got this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He still does needs tweaks and some more experience but if this is the bedrock he's building upon he should grow to be a competent player. There has been times where he's been invaluable to us and others where he's made school boy errors. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
