  1. Scotland is not a country? Perhaps I will declare myself Irish. Oh wait...
  2. Can I ask for an alternative way to resolve the issues currently facing our club? The previous regime didn't offer anything. They were simply wanting to satisfy Lloyds. I cannot recall them addressing any oustanding moneys owed to HMRC. Anyone have more info on this? So far, the only person willing to address this problem for our club, head on, has been Whyte. I have built my opinion of Whyte and the way this has been handled from what has been reported and what has been discussed on here. I am in no way an expert in finance...But from what I can see, there really was no other way out of this ?
  3. Sure he set up Durie's entire hattrick. Did he also not get two himself? Nutmegging the keeper with a cross from the wing (all done on purpose!)
  4. Almost every fan on here, whenever a potential transfer falls through because a player wanted more money and was getting it elsewhere, will boastfully turn around and say "Pfft, another player wanting money over medals" and yet some are accepting the "diddy cup" attitude. Bewildering
  5. I find it strange to suggest Hutton's form was thanks to himself and Smith. There are no doubts in my mind the entire coaching team had an impact with Hutton. I guess we will just have to agree to disagree with this one. "I am not saying it was but i wont rule it out either, it may have been a one up on Seltic." We are talking about Kenny McDowall, not Kenny Miller I am beginning to understand exactly what you are looking for from our coaching team and to a degree I agree with you. I also feel our set-pieces are horrible and it feels as though technical ability just does not matter in training. With regards to Wylde, could it possibly be to do with the manager? I am sat here picking my head, trying to figure out who the last player Walter Smith brought through the youth academy (9IAR period as well) who was silky and skillful on the ball. I only ever recall him purchasing established players who were skillful - I was about to suggest this could be something that changes under McCoist and was going to provide a quote from Ally himself regarding attacking Celtic in a pre-match interview. Basically he suggested it would not be fair on our forward thinking players to restrict them in doing what they know. But I cannot for the life of me find it just now and I am short on time...
  6. You make some good points SWSL, however you surely are not suggesting Hutton's turn of form is solely down to Hutton and Smith, are you? Also, there is no doubt Lafferty has grown up and matured. I am positive almost every Rangers fan would agree with this. But players do not just turn into good players from poor players just by "growing up". You clearly have a lot of respect for Walter and rightly so - I do not think anyone could have bettered what he did when he came back - but he brought Kenny to the club. Did he not realise Kenny was a "shite" coach? I notice another poster has requested for some information regarding Ian Durrant being a "shite" coach. I am sorry but I cannot help but think that statement was a lot of "shite".
  7. Had nobody thought how amazing it would be for Ally to win the treble in his first season in charge? I am gutted this is no longer a possibilty. I am even more gutted bears are arguing with one another about whether this competition matters...
  8. They didn't make Hutton a player? The season he went on fire, there were calls from fans, in August, to get him out the team. They were coaching him through that difficult time, they spoke to him, gave him advice and he became fairly solid defensively and our best attacking option within that team. Lafferty always had talent but didn't produce it. So why has he suddenly started producing it? Has he changed breakfast cereals? Lets discuss Broadfoot...Not particularly good but held his own against some good European players. Maybe it was down to the can of Redbull he had before the game.
  9. Our tactis against weaker opposition in Europe have been horrible and in my opinion they have cost us...However these same tactis were applied by the same management team against the likes of Man U at Old Trafford, Barcelona at Ibrox, Lyon at Stade de Gerland and our games on our way to Manchester. As for personal progress, have you forgotten Alan Hutton? Carlos Cuellar? Jamie Ness looks like he has a bright future. A large amount of people had Lafferty down as a useless donkey and now, he has been playing rather well recently. So well in fact, people are suggesting he will be the SPL's top goalscorer. In regards to Durrant, still...I have no idea why he is considered a "shite" coach
  10. The only thing I can take from McCoist having to calm players down is the players were being far too confident and expecting a walk in the park.
  11. I think the main problem is our midfield. We do not have enough players who will run into space, our out of position to create space. When someone takes possession of the ball in the middle of the park I want to see 3-4 players running into a position that'll allow them time on the ball. Can almost predict the run of passes sometimes when our midfield have the ball.
  12. If only he was playing against the Scum...4-0 and a Jig Hattrick!
  13. And it has cost us three cup exits. I am not happy with it and am desperately hoping our defeat to Falkirk is the final nail in the coffin for McCulloch's Rangers career. We can give Ally another chance...Or should he be sacked?
  14. Apologies... I thought this thread was for random nonsense.
