  1. I'm just jumping on the bandwagon of Sakala fans. 😉
  2. Kents job is to make space for the Wingback. Although I think he would be better on the other side. He can't shoot with his right foot when he's running, but remember the goal he scored against them? I reckon he would score a lot more if he was put on that side. That's just my opinion though. I think Lowry could do a job if he was given the same amount of game time as Sakala. We've seen how much better he's gotten since getting a run of games. We should be doing the same with our youngsters then just maybe, we wouldn't need to replace Kent.
  3. You trying to say Sakala didn't mean to score with a backwards header? That's the new way of trying to prevent MND. He definitely meant to score that. He's a striker and a natural finisher like he proved at the weekend.
  4. Is Alex Lowry injured? We already lost Rory Wilson. If we don't start giving our youngsters a chance we are always going to need to find the "next Ryan Kent" when we already have these players at our club.
  5. Of course I know, but I'm sure you read the rest of my post and seen that wasn't the point I was making. I also mentioned a few other players who have left and now give us trouble when we play against them. For instance, Barrie McKay, would he be any worse than any other of the "wingers" who are at our club just now? If he was still allowed the facilities and coaching level he would get at our club? I'm not saying that he would, but it's definitely a question worth debate. This goes back for years, Charlie Adam is the first who cones to my mind but there is obviously plenty more. This is a culture problem. Do we need to bring back the reserve leagues? Cause the level of the west of Scotland league isn't giving our youngsters the best possible challenge that they need at that age to be able to play for the first team. We have talent at our club who aren't getting any chances. We have 5 fucking subs, why can't we use at least 1 of those subs every game to give our youngsters a chance? £15m for Kent, Sakala and Hagi. Advocaat got us a training centre that was at the time, one of the best in Europe. Surely we could have gotten youngsters who can perform at the levels we are seeing from the players I just mentioned except they wouldn't be on £25k MINIMUM per week!! That's over 500 fans just buying their ticket for the game. If you take travel, food and whatever other expenses (booze, hotels etc) then you are talking about our first 11's wages being paid for by just those 500 people. We are we constantly looking for the next Aribo or Bassey when we already have out own youngsters who if given a chance could become first team regulars? It's a problem we have had for years and if we don't win the next game against them then we shouldn't be playing Kent or Morelos unless they sign. We would just be putting players in the shop window of an "everything must go" shop. Why isn't King getting game time when we are winning? The poor boy had to play In a half against probably the best front 3 in Europe and had to be the player who played in a defence who had the worst half of football ever played at Ibrox. He didn't make many mistakes after that despite playing along side that fraud we had playing for us. Would the player who he's used to playing with in our B team have been any worse than Sands? Maybe, but we will never know. Someone a few years back said that we had the best youngsters he had ever seen at our club, he must be wondering what the fuck have we done with them. He might also be thinking that he doesn't have a clue about youngsters. I personally think he was right. We're just going to give them zero chance like we have done with literally hundreds of Rangers supporting youngsters in the past. Something has to change. That was my point, but I think you knew that.
  6. Na, the winger. The fast as fuck boy would be the PC way of saying it.
  7. Nah, I duckeded and dodged it. I did heider myself in the knee though.
  8. Cause Sakala usually loses the ball by taking an extra touch. Remember when we played Dundee? We won that game 1-0 and that came from Kent refusing to listen to Gio and cutting in allowing Barasic to overlap and put the ball in. That's what Kent does, if he played on the other side then we would see more goals like the one he scored against them rather than the usual we see from when he cuts in from tge left and shoots which we all know where that shot usually ends up going.
  9. Apologies, got Sakala mixed up withe the other boy who hasn't played for us for so long I have forgotten his name. The Sands comment was sarcastic, that's what the "¿" was all about but that is the deal (albeit alleged) that if we did want him them we would have to pay. Thankfully looks like we don't want him, but that's the deal that Ross Wilson has gotten us. I think you would be hard pushed to be able to find anyone who thinks he's even worth 10% of that fee. That's apparently the same fee as Tillman if we want to keep him. The point I was making is that Wilson seems to just accept any figures that clubs throw at him. They all know he's an awful negotiator, so throw this shit at us. He's taking game time away from our own youngsters, which we probably don't even pay that much for our full academy. We need to get talks started to get the old reserves leagues back. We have seen our youngsters beat mean leagues above the league's that they are playing against week in week out. Lowry's injury he received at the start if the season probably wouldn't have happened had we had players playing at the time who were actual men who would've ended that pricks career who assaulted him earlier in the season. Instead we had just other kids as "back up" for Lowry who no one went to pull off the exact same knee high tackle that again put Lowry out for longer. Everyone who has seen Lowry play can see that he's the best talent we've had since Barry Ferguson. He should be playing in front of Sakala and also now Kent who looks to not being looking interested for this whole season. We know how good Kent is, yet he's playing like he doesn't want to get injured in case it fucks up his contract options when the season ends. And who can blame him cause we sure as shit won't drop him into our B team squad for the simple reason that we couldn't justify playing him in a league so far down the pyramid who helped get us to a European final last year. Again this is our boards fault. Not pushing for a league where we can play as many returning from injury players as we would like to play in a league who's fully grown men wouldn't get a game for our team of reserve league players if we still had the old system. I like our pyramid system that we now have, but without promotion/relegation then those players have nothing to play for. You just need to look at Barrie McKay and Glen Middleton. Even those players should still have been continuing their growing up to hopefully be first team players for our squad. We have seen how that has turned out, going back further, we have seen the same with Ross Perry, Liam MacLeod, David Bates, Ross McCrorie and blah blah blah plus meh meh meh & our South Korean player wits your point. The point is is that these are players who we seen at very young ages were able to play for our first team. Now we have Leon King who will inevitably be getting restless after he was flag in at the deep end and done well against Liverpool until Goldson went off and we lost 6 goals in 45 mins with him playing along side a player who Ross Wilson has valued at £5m in that donkey Sands. And before anyone says that Charlie McCann has proven that these youngsters aren't ready for first team football, I must remind everyone that McCann played in the same team that lost a west of Scotland league game which included Ridvan Yilmaz and John Souttar. In case anyone hasn't been reading the predicted line up for the game against motherwell almost everyone has Yilmaz and Souttar starting this game when they were the defenders in that game thar we lost. Robbie McCrorie will most likely join these players in wanting to leave because he can't get a game in front of that "Comes for the ball" bombscare or the "Stays on his line" closer to a pension book than young Scots card semi-bombscare who currently has the number1 Jersey until he makes a few mistakes in a game we're winning 2-0 in which we know that mob won't drop points making the amount if games that we should be using these very talented youngsters who we are lucky to have at our pointless academy at this moment in time. These players could be our version of Man utd's golden generation but we aren't giving them a shot. We would rather bring In and play other teams players as "projects" when we have our own players who know what that badge means to play for. We need to wi every single game and Hope the taigs drop points to at least 2 other tea s if we want to win the league. Its not out if our hands, so why are we letting players like Kent and Sakala play when we have youngsters ready and chocking fir some game time. Which then in itself makes them experienced enough to be playing week in week out. How anyone who apparently does thus as so called professionals cannot see that this is not sustainable is beyond me. What happened to having the same style on all of our teams, from first all the way to the U11's? Clearly that must have been abandoned if it is indeed true that we will be starting with a back 3 against Motherwell?
  10. Your point should be about how Sakala manages to get a game for us. He's truly awful. I know he can pull of the odd bit of skill, but surely we could be playing someone who has been brought up by our club and wouldn't cost £3m and wages on top? Likeable guy, but if he didn't put in the effort that the majority of the squad should be putting in then folk would be going mental. £10m for him and Kent before wages. Youngsters who can't get near the team. Kent is only playing for himself just now. He should be nowhere near the team in the last months of his contract. If Leeds still want him, then he's away. Ross Wilson needs to go pronto. We need someone who has better contacts than him. James Sands for £5m? Seems like an excellent deal¿
  11. Was my first ever game, next one was at home to them and we lost that too!! I was only about 10yr old at the time but I felt like I was a curse for Ibrox, felt like my presence was the reason we never got 10 😂 next 10 games I went to we averaged something like 4 goals a game without conceding. Also got to watch some of the best football I have ever seen at Ibrox under Advocaat. We were genuinely competing with the best teams in Europe and I reckon if we had gotten another team than Bayern or Valencia in our group we could have went really far in that years competition. The night we played Parma at Ibrox still sends shivers down my spine when I think back to it. I was up in the club deck and the thing was literally vibrating like fuck, was honestly thinking it was going to collapse but it never and I saved up all Mt pocket money and somehow fluked a season ticket beside my dad (he says he never helped, but I know he did). Once you experience night's like those it's impossible to not get the bug and it saddens me now that it's only BF1 who seem to be willing to get things going, but they don't help at the same time with a lot of new songs each season which only the true hard-core fans learn the words to, which might be complete bullshit but to me that seems the reason why it's like a funeral with a choir singing in one part of "the church". We really need to push for a standing area. It's a shame how you need to either opt for a good view or a good atmosphere if you want to go to Ibrox these days, but that is a discussion for another time. A fit team that isn't scared to play at Ibrox is more important for now. Seems we're on track, but it's never going to happen while we keep Tav as our captain. His numbers are phenomenal but he's not a leader. You just need to see how much better Amo got when he lost the armband. Even a colossus like him couldn't cope with being captain and play to his best abilities at the same time.
  12. How can people defend a board who have been done with price fixing, giving loans to our club putting us back in debt, selling three players for ~£35m that they got for free then allowing a team who has a captain that has said that they essentially shit it when they play at ibrox which has been proven with 1 Shinty trophy that was won when no one was allowed in the stadium then lose a manager who could at least attract players just by his name to be replaced by a Dick Advocaat wannabe who allegedly shat it from fucking Kamara 😂 who also shat it from day one up at Aberdeen when the kick off whistle was blown we sat back like the team we just played yesterday with our "keep the zero" style of play that was the complete opposite of the game plan that had been hammered into our team for the past 5years which got us to a European final then sacked him after he had lost what was it, 15pts over the space of the time he's been here to a team who we were thumping every time we played them. Then the cunt plays Morelos who when he walked out my son said "why is he wearing the woman's kit?" Which tbf, it did look like cause the fat cunt had obviously squeezed into it. Nò wonder he got sent off cause he was never going to keep up with actual athletes when he had been sitting on his arse with his wife who had just given birth. I'm not blaming Morelos for that, the manager (or "the boss" if you like) should have made sure he was at least fit enough to run the length of the pitch before he got anywhere near it. Which brings it back to the question of how can anyone defend a board who done that? And don't even get me started on the polis, the leastcsaid about them the better. Are these cunts getting paid by the board to go out and defend them? Or is it them their self's who are doing it rather than doing the jobs they are on the board to do ? FF should be taken down and left down forever. I've yet yo meet a single person who has anything good to say about that Rangers propaganda website and somehow we just let it be. How many strips have been released since castore have come in? I think I can count six just for this season, and that's just mens. And those have been price fixed. How can anyone defend that shite?
  13. Not saying it isn't a gamble, but it is the same 2 as our best performance under Beale. I woke up with a good feeling, which usually is and has been quite good in the past. Nerves are shot to shit now though so 🤯🤯
