That’s all Ive heard since 2019. No bad luck if you’re looking at 2 doubles and treble the 3 seasons after you lose your only league title in 13 years.

Delighted and shows the character of the guy. Playing like he’s been told he won’t be here next season and his wee band of merry mates putting in the same performances.

The difference between Tav/Goldson comments and Sterling is those two clowns have had years and umpteen opportunities to change that mentality after they’ve spoken about, they’ve just chosen not too. Sterling has been here less than a year and has more drive and determination to win things than those two put together. That’s the galling thing. We know exactly who he’s talking about as well, we can pinpoint those that need rooted out the club. Tav, Goldson, Barisic, Jack, Roofe, Wright, Lundstram all been here at least 3 seasons, all involved in 10 or so fuck ups compared to 1 or 2 wins. That mentality has clearly seeped into some of the others like Lawrence, Matondo, Dessers etc. Sterling is clearly pissed off about it and rightfully so.

Sterling is the exact type of player clearly physically and mentally we should be looking at. Young, hungry, athletic and clearly desperate for success. He’s literally a blue print of when you win your first trophy it develops the hunger for more. He sounds completely pissed off at whatever seems to have happened behind the scenes

Quite right, enjoy his honesty. Speaks volumes what is essentially a kid from a youth team down South in his first season is openly calling out the senior players around him as basically bottle merchants.

I fully believe it’s mentality. 90% of the time we have fuck all to play for in April and May. Even Williamson pointed out we had wrapped up the league in March when we won it. In April/May for the past 4 seasons we’ve competed in 3 finals and lost 2 if i remember right. The team have mentally checked out because they don’t have the minerals to push themselves that bit further which is what success requires

All 6 players out of contract on crazy wages will be a good start. Koppen should know who Clement wants and not, so the feelers should be out there for guys like Matondo, Davies, Dowell etc those on the periphery. Lammers is doing well enough in Holland to gain a transfer fee. The issue right now is Clement needs some of these guys for the last games of the season. Tav, Goldson, Dessers etc so can’t exactly turn round and say it’s game over. But there is definitely money there and money to be made off this squad. Add in the inevitable sale of Butland and we should have a bit of cash to play with. If all out of contract players go plus another 4-5 you could genuinely be talking around £20m in wages alone which is absolutely staggering considering the return we’re getting. There is and should be room for money to be spent in the summer. They can’t seriously hand Beale £15m and leave this manager wae fuck all

That’s not entirely the case though is it. They’ve spent £6m or more on about 4 players in 20 years. In the past 4 seasons they brought in Furuhashi, Hatate, Abada, Johnstone etc all for less than £5m each and in some cases less than £3m. In that time we spent £14m on Matondo, Davies, Dessers and Lammers just to name 4. They shop in similar transfer budget areas as us, even with X amount of millions more in the bank. We’re the club with the highest wage bill in the country. If reports are correct we have 6 of the 7 highest paid players in Scotland. But aye, finances.

Proves me point further That is incredible. Domestically for 4 seasons then, bar the Scottish cup final, we’ve no been bothered with the business end of the season. Sounds about right.

Honestly sick of listening to this absolute nonsense. When Postecoglu came into celtic he had about 12 players to pick from. Fast forward 9 months and he’s walked to a double. Another 12 and he’s won a treble. It’s clearly doable we just don’t have the mentality of it. Everything associated with us is a “process” “takes time” “give xyz a year to bed in”. Slow, pondering about hopeful of picking up a cup or stopping them winning another treble. Sick of listening to the same old excuses, based on absolutely nothing.

It’s clearly absolutely everything. We all of a sudden found ourselves in with a chance of a league title with 8 to play. The first alarm bell was Motherwell, played before they went to Tynecastle. Shat it but bailed out by Hearts. The second was 20 seconds and then 45 minutes into an Old Firm that if you win, 95% of the time you win the league, at home, with no away fans. The third was Sunday and the fourth was last night. The ONLY common theme of those 4 games is that the pressure ramps up with each one. It’s all well and good trundling along 7-9 points behind and playing well. Suddenly there’s something to fight for and it’s tools down, hiding and don’t want to do it because they’re used to April and May being a complete wash out every season bar 1.

Yup. Now the best manager we’ve had in about 15 years has almost 2 hands tied behind his back fighting against another club with another CL windfall and having to get rid of the same old faces. All the while trying to get the best out of what he’s got, identity talent for the apparent “player trading model” and above all, win trophies. I’ve no doubt if you look at where he’s won trophies, the synergy and professionalism between himself, board and players will have been at its peak. He’s fighting a losing battle with probably less than £10m to spend in the summer and relying on shifting 12+ players to recreate a mentality that he aligns with

It was 5 years ago now. As captain and then as the senior leadership group, they’ve not once tried to change it. That’s the issue. Souness said it himself, he couldn’t believe there was still chat about the league title win the season after round the club and with the players. Job done mentality since

It was in the Rangers programme the night Hamilton beat us 1-0 I’m sure. Someone will correct me if I’m wrong

I’ve backed him forever but time is up. I’m sure that was before the Hamilton game which was essentially costing Gerrard his job until the season was ended. Since it’s been the exact same outcome 80% of the time. 15 trophies up for grabs, 3 won. They’ve won a double or treble in every season bar 1 since this quote.

Manager is clueless but

It’s changed because the players actually had a chance of winning something, thought fuck that it’s the end of the season these are usually glorified friendlies for us and are making sure the split means nothing for 3 of the last 4 seasons because it suits them. That’s what’s changed. There isn’t a chance from Hearts, Hibs or even Benfica away literally a month ago the manager has went ye know what lads, let’s pass about safely in wee triangles, punt the ball aimlessly and not string two passes together. They players are finished and the fans need to let them know it.

Sit his agent and him down and show him 10 performances like the last 2 games compared to 10 minutes of what he’s actually given in his career. A player who hasn’t beat Celtic in 90 minutes in any game that had a pressured outcome.

Everything from Everyone, apart from the players.

I’m not even sure you can blame the manager for the style of football either. They shitebags on the park have literally reverted to type in every other aspect, so going back to playing within the shell they need protection for isn’t really a surprise either. We’ve seen it under 3 managers and I highly doubt the manager has changed tactics from blowing Hearts, Hibs away, to the performance against Benfica away to not being able to string two passes together. The core of this time has had enough time, couldn’t care about their length of service, I hope there is banners at Ibrox demanding they are put out the club

I don’t think the manager who has won 3 league titles and cups is the issue. His head has gone Ok. If anyone knows anything about league winning pressure it’s Clement. It’s the same players that are the issue.

Losers to a man. You can literally see them desperate to be out of the title race before Parkhead. Not one wants to stand up and be counted. Tav, Goldson, Lundstram and Barisic will be delighted when it’s over before Parkhead. It means when they ship 4 again it won’t really matter in their heads

£64m wage bill Tragic bastards. They’re finished as Rangers players tonight. It’s time a club backed its manager and removed the toxicity developed by the usual suspects.

It can’t be levelled at fitness or just a drop in form, injuries etc. This is now clear as day a mentality issue. They’re that used to the end of the season meaning fuck all, they can’t cope with it actually meaning something.
