It's a young Catholic with an education at St Molestors It doesnt bother me either... its pretty obviious that most players in the World want to be playing in the Premier League. All Im saying is, that a professional always knows who is paying him.. he should know better. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

"Obviously I want to fight my way into the starting lineup. Another ambition of mine would be to, at some point, play in the Premier League." Its not hard. Not really a big deal either though, is it?

Merely saying that as a professional he should always have said that he would want to force his way into the starting lineup at the team he plays for then add the bit about the Premier League. Its just sloppy. PR isnt our game it has to be said. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Was asked a question, answered it honestly and that's about that. I doubt we have folk guiding them what to say like at other clubs where they speak off a script ala the tims. I hope he wants to make it there that would mean we would take in a good fee for someone we got for scraps. Jelavic said he wanted to play in the EPL and it was his main goal before he even signed for us remember. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Interviews arent easy. I also get the fact that he is young, honest and wants to be in the EPL. Im not saying its a huge deal either.. this time it wasnt serious but its very easy to say something that will piss off the people that pay your wages - the fans. This goes for all the players...especially with social media etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Social media is a tough one because they can't stop you from being on it or take responsibility for what you post. Ideally no player would have it but youmwiukd be the odd one out if you didn't.

Guidance in PR is more relevant that it ever has been because of social media. You are personally talking directly to your fans. We are behind in most things and a bit of training in PR is of course not high on the list but Im sure they have people in every now and then for the Youth..

Vanoli 4,625 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Don't think football's for you anymore if you can't accept that any player with the ability to do so will choose the Premier League over Rangers. Every single one. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ozblue 4,331 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 3 hours ago, falkirkNS said: Ano mate but maybe its just fact hes a tarrier and made the switch and making it as Rangers No1 should be his main aim surely. Whether he is a tarrier or not, his ambition will be controlled by his ability, so if he wants to realise his ambition he has to become #1 at Rangers, which in turn means he has to be better than Ross McCrorie to begin with, which I doubt. Don't be surprised if the Lurgan bigot doesn't try to get him on loan as a back-up keeper. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
kaiser1041 9,088 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 He’s a decent keeper and at least he’s not lying to us. honestly some of our fans go about looking to be offended Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Genuine question, bad enough we imo we are bring through shettleston harriers but for his ambition not to be Rangers No1.... not my cuppa tea at all. It's not what we want to hear nor is it too smart for him to be saying it. But then too many supporters don't realise that for the foreseeable future we need to be a stepping stone club for players to get to the EPL riches. And we need to be a selling club with any player having their price - Burt, Mccrorie, etc included. We just need to be better at getting value for money.

Creampuff 22,628 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 Folk need to get over this idea that Rangers are at the forefront of everyone’s mind. Walked past the local pitches yesterday and the kids playing were in Barca/Real/Man Utd shirts. When I grew up I’d never have anything but the Rangers kit on. Of course his dream is to go play EPL. These times they are a changin’. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
pcbear 10,913 Posted January 4, 2018 Share Posted January 4, 2018 He prob has 5 goalies in front of him st Ibrox, so its highly unlikely he will get anywhere near the first team here never mind at the higher end of English football, nothing wrong with ambition but McGregor is the only goalie i can think of that has come through the system and stay in the team so its a tough ask.
