They’re playing one of the worst teams in the league and Lafferty scored 2 against Motherwell for us already

You “stopped reading” because I debunked your points and you’re wrong, no need to be ashamed about it.

It’s totally irrelevant how much we spend on a player though and it’s not the board’s fault that the players we’ve went after just haven’t cost all that much. Just because player X cost £1 Million and player Y cost £2 Million it doesn’t make him better Its hardly a bad thing the club is showing some transfer acumen and financial astuteness by picking up Croatian internationals and the like for good prices. I mean when you actually analyse what we’ve brought in beyond how much their transfer fee was, then the recruitment should actually be applauded. For instance, signing the best goalkeeper in the league in McGregor for nothing, an experienced Premiership midfielder for nothing, 1 current and 1 future internationalist for the current World Cup runners up for £3 Million combined. If you looked at those types of players and were told it cost us say £8 Million to get them all even then we probably wouldn’t complain as, thus far, they have demonstrated a big step up in quality. Its utterly irrelevant how much Pedro spent. The players he signed cost more than the players we’ve signed, that’s it, I’m sure if the selling clubs for Katic etc demanded more we would’ve paid more. Luckily that hasn’t been the case and we’ve secured the services of these guys for a good price. Even using the “he spent more money argument”, Goldson has been the club’s most expensive transfer in this decade at over £3.5 Million. Even off the field Gerrard has been backed. We’ve brought in a plethora of highly regarded coaches that I don’t imagine would be earning small amounts, not to mention the club have apparently made improvements to both Ibrox and the training centre according to Gerrard (who even himself has praised the board’s backing thus far). So yeah, net spend kinda means fuck all when considering how much Gerrard has been backed.

Pretty nonsensical to judge signings from net spend. If Katic and Barisic cost more then Gerrard would’ve been backed better?

Would be the first time we’d done it since having a director of football and a fully fledged scouting team. We might sign that guy or we might not but did it not occur to you that Gerrard might’ve been lying? Or at the time of questioning we weren’t in for him?

No we’re signing him having not scouted him and just taking the word of a recommendation. That’s definitely exactly what we’re doing.

He was injured. Highly doubt Barisic is just stoating about recommending players to the management.

Yes and if we won yesterday no one would even be asking this question. Absolute meltdown from every angle when we don’t win a game.

Fucking hell.

Once we’re winning comfortably by the end, bring on Halliday and just tell him to break as many of their players’ legs as he can, simple.

Always needed a left sided forward anyway, now it has to be a priority.

Cup keepers are stupid as well, if we get to a final I want Allan McGregor in goals every time.

Retiring numbers is a stupid Americanism.

There’s still a lot in it.

Cool how Halliday can come in and play decently as a makeshift left back in a huge game and still get a slagging.

Good option off the bench.

Actually no one in the world was as against it as I was. Know your place.

The Ransdens Cup Final v Raith Rovers. Only because it’s still by far the worst game of football I’ve ever watched.

It was absolutely pinpoint btw, like a catholic seeking missile.

Second point, he’s going bald. If we can keep him while he still has hair then fine, but if that hairline keeps moving back we’ve got to release him before it’s too late.

Hit someone near me in the face at halftime with a shot. Decent.

Thought the rule was you can’t be given a straight red unless you used excessive force or endangered your opponent or didn’t attempt to play the ball. It happened right in front of me and it just looked like a bad tackle and didn’t fit into any or those conditions. I could just have the rule wrong though.

Half of it was away by the time the teams were coming out, dunno why people can’t just wait until they hear simply the best the hold it up or something.

Early signs of big improvement but I’m saving any potential over confidence for at least after the OF.

Hopefully people can hold them up at the correct time instead of about 10 minutes before kickoff like at the Shkupi game.
