stewaj3 1,444 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Thought this is worth mentioning... but did anyone else think he called the game perfectly today?? Seems really knowledgeable and I agreed with pretty much all of what he said Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

duffy2391 574 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Aye I enjoyed listening to him, good football man and he canny stick Craig Thomson, what's not to like? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dickie1963 2,348 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 He doesn't rate Craig Thomson much as a ref that's for sure Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Marky. 6,920 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 He's honest at least. Didn't shy away when describing particular players as being under pressure etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 No problems with Kevin. He was a decent, honest, under-rated, hard working, talented footballer for us and sensible enough guy off the park too. I'm not one for giving jobs to the boys at Ibrox but every now and again there's an exception and I think he could probably add something to Rangers behind the scenes or on the training ground.

Prso's headband 34,991 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 He's good to listen too. He commented that we had a team of men. He also said when he played not one team would bully us, anywhere in Scotland. You can see what Pedros trying to do, the players are powerhouses and look like they'll work hard for the cause. If we have a few flair players we can rely on we might actually do well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There's some decisions I'll never get my head around I suppose. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
gsa 3,906 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Always really liked him as a player. Seems a decent guy and is clearly knowledgable, has a good grasp of what the club needs. Loves talking about himself though! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

ricksen92 459 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Liked the fact he said we a couple of times , and called the game spoton. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
StirlingBear72 476 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 I'd happily take a player or two like him back at Ibrox. He was vastly underrated during his playing days with us. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewaj3 1,444 Posted July 22, 2017 Author Share Posted July 22, 2017 Thought lots of things he said made sense, for me he called the booking of Dorrans out, he mentioned us looking like men, where as last year we looked like boys. His analysis of Danny Wilson was decent too, commenting on him being allowed time as a young boy, but he's not a kid anymore. He also correctly mentioned Wilson is better as the defender who sits back and not the one charging forward for headers. He also said danny got caught with the cross, which was good to hear, some ex players (DJ, lovenkrands etc) are too kind to our players, It was nice to hear someone say it as it is. As others have said maybe isn't the most exciting in terms of reactions, but he is a straight talker, clearly knows the game and its good to hear ex players speak well when commentating our games.

Spliffy 643 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Agree with getting him involved, is certainly more than qualified. Twice the player and half the price of that cunt brown, he and us both robbed by the 'Rangers horror-knee injury curse'. Don't think he ever lost an Old Firm game either, was defintie captain material before that game against killie. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
NitshillBear 1,406 Posted July 22, 2017 Share Posted July 22, 2017 Whatever arse-licking shite he came away with in commentary doesn't disguise what a crushingly average footballer he was. Painfully, annoyingly average. Flew into tackles that harmed him and the team in an effort to be believed. Now retired aged 32. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There was no arse-licking that's what was great about it 2. He was way better than average, he was no worldbeater, but if you a solid 7 out of 10 guy KT was that man, wouldn't shy away from anything. 3. He was a hard tackler, but his opponents knew it 4. He had 3 horrendous injuries, that is why he is retired, because they took their toll on the man. 5. Away and shite Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He injured himself constantly. He was never a hard man sort of player. Would have been better sticking to the sub-Barry Ferguson type he was meant to be rather than the weird kiddy on enforcer he thought he was.

Fondly remembered by much of the support and so he should be. Your comments are disrespectful and fitting of a taig. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
