bluenose244 2,618 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 The Scottish press is so unprofessional, I find myself cringing watching these videos. It really is embarrassing!!! Good journalism doesn't need a big headline or a quote taken out of context to sell. Just report the fucking news it's your job! Stop fishing!

Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted August 24, 2016 Share Posted August 24, 2016 Interesting to hear MW suggest that there is more to be done for the squad to gel. That's understandable up to a point as we are only 3 league games into the season. And interesting to note his satisfaction with having won 7 points out of 9 so far. The unasked question though was to get his view on when he thinks he will have achieved the level of 'gelling' that he thinks would be needed to be 'more than competitive'. However long it takes we absolutely must still be in strong contention in order to benefit from that more complete gelling process at the business end of the season. Personally I still think it is very important to win the league this season and open the way to have a shot at CL football next season. The financials are becoming too weighted in favour of clubs reaching CL group stages that it risks making it that much harder to win the league if we can be out-spent by a big margin in acquiring players. So I think the pressure is much greater on MW this season and we'll see how he handles the media under that sort of spotlight throughout the season. Also wonder why the Press haven't asked him if there are any players he would have liked to have signed, and asked about signing but could not afford. To a large extent I still think the nose and tail of how quickly we can get 55 comes down to money - the money King and the Board make available to acquire the best possible first choice players. The thing is, if the league is not won this season and we have to go again next season, where is King going to get the sort of serious money that may well be needed to attract the right players to Rangers. But then, that question may never have to be faced (I bet King hopes he doesn't have to face it) if MW / DW and the squad can gel quickly and effectively and win 55 this season.

I mean I get everyone wanting us to win it and at the very least expecting us to at least compete but we need to remember where we have been, to be anywhere close to a title challenge considering what a shambles our club was only a year and a half ago would be miraculous and whether we win the league or finish 2nd we will never be grateful enough for the work Warburton and the board have done for our club.

I don't think where we have been in the last 4 years is an excuse to lose our winning mentality. Anything other than winning the league is a failure imo, that will never change at a club like ours and Warburton obviously realises that.

We have to be realistic though, after what we have been through we could have Ancelotti in charge and still struggle to win the league. It is nothing to do with losing our winning mentality, it's being realistic. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kenzie2386 17 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 Why Bagwash felt he had to ask about Celtic's result, only he knows but he was put in his place when he tried to trip MW up with a question about Joey. I would have thought that even pusillanimous journalists - and I lose the term in its loosest sense - would know by now that MW can spot bear traps a mile off.

Gaz52 11,837 Posted August 25, 2016 Share Posted August 25, 2016 I wouldn't say he looks down in the dumps at all. He handles the moronic Scottish press expertly, never a "ehhhh" moment. He just says what all Rangers fans say, nothing we can do to control other teams results so we just need to control what we can - perfect.
