I said it in the match thread last night that I feel sorry for Butland and Sterling for having to deal with this shower of shite they are on the park with and unfortunately I think he knows himself hes on the park with a bunch of useless twats.

that is a horrible but true thought :(

that, I can get onboard with, like I said earlier, maybe the Rangers men bit is too easy to say, players who actually give their all with a winning mentality would do us fine. In my personal opinion I would like to see a Scottish core of players who have an understanding of what our traditions are, if that means they are a Rangers supporter or not then it wont matter to me as long as they give us 100%.

are Ayr fighting on upto 4 fronts every season? are Ayr expected to win the premier league and possible 2 cups every year? , you know exactly what I'm saying with the expectations comment your just choosing to carry on being silly. yes I live in Scotland, have done for 46 years, supported Rangers all my life, I know what myself and every other fan expects even though we all know sometimes its unreasonable, but one thing thats not unreasonable is that our tradition of winning and giving 100% is upheld no matter who plays for us, and we arent getting that in the last few years from the players, wether that means we need a Scottish core or some Rangers men or just professionals who do what their paid for is everyones own opinion.

but the thread title doesnt say that it should be ONLY Rangers men we sign and only players who support Rangers thats just something youve made up.

what you on about now, nobody in this thread said anything about refusing players, as you pointed out, Souttar doesnt support us, but hes Scottish and hes been here for a bit now so he gets what its about as saw by his reaction at full time yesterday.

fans of other clubs outwith us and them dont have the demands placed on them we put on ours, but you know that your just trying to be a dick and if its that much of a car crash why you posting in it?

That we need to win every game. That us as a support wont accept not giving 100% in every game, That they need to be prepared for every other teams players to want to injure us. That the refs will bow to fenian pressure. the list is long and you dont need to be a Rangers man to know that, you just need to be clued up on what it takes to play for Rangers. Most players in Scotland dont need to deal with any of this outwith us and them.

Souttar, Ferguson and Shankland wouldve given us a spine of Scottish talent, they would know that at Rangers the expectations are much higher than at the rest of the dross and we wouldnt have had to rely on Goldson, Lundstram and Dessers as our spine (or lack of)

plenty of their best Scottish players over the years have been brought up as Rangers men, but they knew what the rivalry was all about and how to deal with Scottish football.

I dont agree with that, I think Souttar is a decent player who is Scottish and knows what it means to play for us, unfortunatly hes stuck next to a fucking idiot in Goldson and has hardly been played in his porper position, stick him on the right and get Balogun or someone else who can actually play and we might see why he was signed.

maybe Rangers men was simply wishful thinking but I still stand by the fact that we need players who understand Scottish football and what it means to play for Rangers. You can have Scottish players who know what it means to play for Hearts or Dundee or whoever but the expectations are completely different. I'm not saying make McCausland captain or anything like that, I'm saying we need someone in there who will go the extra mile or that 10% thats been mentioned, we have had plenty foreigners in the past who "got it" I dont feel this currant generation of footballer thinks about anything other than pay day and it being a job, maybe Im too sentimental and times have changed though I can accept that.

I think thats what I'm looking for tbh, that extra 10% because it actually hurts to lose, I just dont get that from any of the currant mob, your right though professionals who take pride in their work is whats needed, these idiots put on sad faces because they think it will appease the fans, last night showed that a sad face an a clap wont appease the fans any more, they are sick of it.

its always the case that when you have a bad spell you look to the things that might have made a difference. McGregor is a good one but there was only so much he could affect by being in goals and it looked like he had a good relationship with Tav and Goldson who I feel are our main problem. Steven Davis is another good shout and I do feel he shouldve been club captain but he was never the guy to bark at the others like a Gough or Ferguson.

as the title suggests, we have nobody who gets what it means to play for Rangers, closest we have is Alex Rae in the dugout and maybe John Souttar on the park but we have nobody who would run through a brick wall for us or someone who would tell the truth in an interview. I've always felt in the past to be successfull we need a strong spine of people who have grown up supporting us who would put their body on the line for us, the last person we had like that was Halliday but he was a limited footballer. Everytime I watch these footballing nobodies we have playing for us I just dont get the feeling that they go home sad to have drawn or lost, I dont get the feeling that they feel sorry for the fans. They most likely get home, have a smoothie, slippers on and watch Netflix then go to training next day and have a laugh with their mates.
