Murty threw Halliday under the bus yesterday

[GOAT 30,449]

Halliday is not Rangers class and never will be.  Let’s get that out the way.  But for murty to a. Play him yesterday and then b. sub him with only a few minutes of the half left was disgraceful.  Completely tossed him under the bus, why not wait til half time instead of embarrassing the guy like that. Thought it was a fucking scummy move by murty to embarrass the guy after he put him in the situation in the first place.

[TMB 14,167]

Why wait?  Our midfield was absent and being completely overrun.  The sooner a change is made to rectify that the better.  

[rangersross 6,530]

If you've got to make a change, you've got to make a change. They were only two-nil up at that point. Obviously it didn't happen but imagine if Windass had come on and quickly scored? We'd have gone in 2-1 down at HT and with a much better mentality. 

Appreciate what you're trying to say - and I do value 'class' and 'decency' as qualities in a Rangers manager - but when we're losing to celtic I'd always prefer our manager to prioritise making the change(s) that he thinks give us a better chance of getting back in the game. 

[cushynumber 25,178]

he shouldnt have been on the park in the first place, but frankly i could not give one fuck for hallidays feelings. He is lucky he got that long. 

I remember Ricksen getting hauled off by wee Dick after 20 minutes against celtic and not behaving like halliday.

We were outclassed all over the park mate - in every department.  We're fucking rank - back to the day of Ally & Pedro ffs. But back to Halliday, he's about as good a player as Murty is as a first team manager.

[docspiderman 1,228]

Should have been hooked earlier: a consistent tame passer to the opposition who offered nothing to us. Murty would have got pelters for keeping him on the park and at least tried to do something even if he got it as wrong by bringing on Windass, who would never be up for the fight.

[Nameless Ghoul 6,057]

Halliday threw all his toys out the pram. 

[The Ibrox Derry 8,904]

No cunt at that club wants to take personal ownership or responsibly for any of their actions and behaviour. It's a fucking cesspit full of very immature and untrustworthy men of no Integrity

[Smell the hotdog 4,015]

Murty was only rectifying the stupid mistake he made by playing him in the first place.

Sooner both are gone the better.

[sassaaaa 11,406]

Not defending him because he was fuckin brutal just like they all were but my guess is Haliday knows exactly what Murty is and has let him know.

[orangecountry 148]

People talk about the need to make subs As soon as a change is needed rather than wait too late in the game. Murty did that. Halliday acted like a child.

Just in case the bus rolled over them and bust them all.

Fully agreed.

And Ricksen came back from that to become player of the year and captain of the Rangers, Halliday can only dream of being a player of Ricksen's calibre.

[2nd Flute 14,036]

Halliday going off on one, Morelos and Docherty squaring up in the tunnel, pity they didn't show as much aggression against the fucking tarriers.

[RedWhiteBlue1872 407]

I agree mate, but if he had waited until half time people would still have moaned.

Couldn't care if he flung him under a bus, his tactics were all wrong yes but he had to change it.

 

[Captain Hilts 12,819]

Wish someone would throw the players under an actual bus.

[Junior Soprano 22,428]

He also threw mccrorie and Dorrans under as well by playing them when the were clearly out of match practice.

I really don't think anyone has been thrown under a bus. Both Murty and Halliday are in charge of their own actions and have proved to be not up to it. 

[The Specky Forum Organiser 64,727]

Was pathetic

Should have waited til half time. Halliday was no worse than Docherty or Dorrans yesterday, that isn't a defence of him as all 3 were a disgrace.

[sandyinroyalblue 16,478]

Murty replacing Halliday at that time was as embarrassing for Murty as it was for Halliday,it was at least a recognition from Murty that Halliday's selection was a huge mistake.

[graeme_4 34,527]

For me he shouldn’t have started. But he was no worse than Doherty or Dorrans, or Martin or McCrorie, or just about anyone else for that matter. 

We all knew we were beaten about 10 minutes in. 

I feel like Murty made the sub to show he wasn’t afraid to make changes, like he was criticised for in the last game, but it was a ridiculous situation to create. Sacrificed the guy he probably thought he could get away with doing it to. No danger he’d do that to a Miller or Dorrans. 

Added to the fact that we were being totally overrun in midfield, so be brought on fucking Windass. 

[LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510]

Feel sorry for him because no Rangers fan should be subjected to that mob singing their name.

He was awful and shouldn't have been on the pitch though. Docherty was shite as well but at least he was actually touching the ball.

The change could have probably been made at half time and avoided that situation though. Or at least avoided it playing out in front of the cameras like that.

[GlasgowRangers1983 461]

The sub should of been made possibly before the first goal as a blind man could see we were not up for it but certainly changes should of been made after the goal. A better manager would of seen we were struggling and made the changes required to compete. 

I personally don’t care about any of the players feelings they are here to do a job and I hope that they are all feeling rotten today and hope that for the next while they are constantly on hard running at training and have early starts as we need to change these premadonnas attitudes.
