The Blue Sea of Ibrox 2000 66 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Our captain is ruled out for six to eight weeks. Not that concerned as long as Declan John is passed fit as not confident in Lee Hodson. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
sairheid_bear 166 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I'd rather Wallace was fit tbh. We need to see more of DJ defensively to know how good he is - although he looked decent going forward against Thistle. I'm worried he might come undone against them, especially if he has Windass sitting in front of him - wee Josh tackles like a paper bag .

The Blue Sea of Ibrox 2000 66 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Big Lee would be my first choice as he knows what this Saturday means but Declan will do the job if he plays like he did against Patrick. Early days for the boy but big hopes for him on Saturday. Big Bruno may be of more concern as who do you play Danny or Ross. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Going by the subs I would say Ross will be inline to step up and I thought he looked excellent so not to worried although would loved a stare off between brown and Alves at the coin toss.

simplythebest 11,453 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Despite Wallace's form issues we can't really be sure if the alternatives are better yet, hopefully will be obviously Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

kaiser1041 9,088 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 We need to look beyond Waldo as unfortunately he has been injury riddled for 3 seasons Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blue Sea of Ibrox 2000 66 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 Â A bit harsh Wallace has been a good servant to us and always gives 100%. Yes he can have an off day but so can the best of them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stuart1994 4,303 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Would want Wallace starting on Saturday but in all honesty would have rather we went out for a new first choice left back in the summer there. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Big Al 55 9,252 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Find a lb who can defend and sit wallace or john in front of him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blue Sea of Ibrox 2000 66 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 I think Pedro has put Ross ahead of Danny in the pecking order. Would worry about playing the lad against the scum as the game could overwhelm him. Problem we have is too many players going to make their debut on Saturday.

Amac9 2,060 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Has been distinctly average for a few seasons now but you'd be mad to prefer John or Hodson over him for this weekend's game. Â Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
TMB 14,167 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Lee has been getting it tight on here for months but now we'll see how much we miss him when he's not in the team. Hopefully, the lad John can step up to the plate and prove his worth.

The Specky Forum Organiser 64,699 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 One of my favourite players ever but we need to seriously look into replacing him soon sadly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
CF2 WINNIE 1,006 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Really hope Wallace isn't going down the Templeton road of picking up 2/3 medium term injuries every season. Looks like he is though. Great servant to the club. Still think he is our best left back but think we need to look at long term replacement sadly. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cushynumber 25,178 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 John looks a very decent replacement. Im more concerned what we put in front of the LB position. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Blue Sea of Ibrox 2000 66 Posted September 21, 2017 Author Share Posted September 21, 2017 OMG a love fest for Lee Wallace so it is not all doom and gloom. Would bite your hand off for a draw on Saturday but still hoping for a sneaky win. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Prso's headband 35,456 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 An even bigger worry is Miller will now definitely play for the next two months. He's vice captain and he just seems to be getting shoe horned in everywhere Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

GersInCanada 7,775 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 I cringe at the idea of playing Hodson but needs must. Give Windass a place on the bench and play John in that position if he makes it. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

KeyserSoze 14,544 Posted September 21, 2017 Share Posted September 21, 2017 Pedro said he needed cover in that area and I hope Declan keeps him out for the rest of the season and proves himself worthy of a contract if we can get him. If Waldo is out for six - eight weeks then he's going to need that again to get himself fit. He was towing a caravan when he came back under McCoist after only three weeks. imo it's no big deal.
