Billy1984 6,314 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 If they play half decent and show the effort required to play for this club no one will need to be a whipping boy. If anyone thinks windass and a little bit less so Morelos don't deserve flak after the shite they produced last night and a lot of times last season they're part of the problem.

This based on you ‘think’ he might have said something! It’s not even based on stuff you know! ( it may be true even but you don’t know that) some folk just want to have a pop at players - and abuse is ‘warranted ‘ - how ‘supportive’ of you and if he has snapped back you’re going to get all huffy and say ‘oh he shouldn’t do that just cause I hurled abuse at him’! ??

You know very little about my work rate – better write a new wish list.” and lets not forget his goal celebration telling the fans to shut up and no im not all huffy just i believe that no Rangers player should behave in that manner towards the fans. obviously you do not much else can be said really Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If all fans thought, like you, that booing and abuse were how you motivate people then the world is a fucking sad place - luckily most of us still remember to support win or lose, but we do have a section that feel ‘entitled’ - the glory hunters - you probably leave early if we are getting beat.

He has treated the fans with total contempt and simply doesn't have the attitude for a Rangers player. Blotches of talent but all in all, wouldn't be missed. Should be cleaning Glen Middleton's boots. Doesn't deserve to get jeered off the park in the first competitive game of the season mate, sorry. Agree his attitude is stinking etc but even so, last night he ran himself into the ground, albeit his end product was garbage. Genuinely felt uneasy at the fans doing that to him last night and my many posts on here indicate how much I dislike him as a footballer Sparkle and plumbGER 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He's fucking shite, do you honestly enjoy mediocrity? Oh everything is great, that performance last night was a fucking disgrace, front line especially, abysmal, fucking chronic, I will not try to dress it up as anything else, I'm very concerned going into the league campaign. rabc10000 and 16BlueSherbert90 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Prso's headband 35,348 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Windass has literally carried on from last season. Cba attitude, jogging around the pitch bar a few wee spurts of energy, wayward passes etc. He’s the prime example of what type of player we shouldn’t have. A player that thinks he’s better than he is and doesn’t understand why he gets stick. theclothmonster and BridgeIsBlue 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

K.A.I 36,183 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Hate these types of threads. If a player (or manager) is pish then they deserve all the criticism they get. I don't mean over the top abuse but criticism is healthy. I've no time for sub-standard players - whereas some folk want to mollycuddle them and pretend they're good. 16BlueSherbert90 and Scottywellhousetb 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fans have every right to criticise, but Windass got abuse for wearing a neck pillow ffs ? and Morelos for not smiling. Mud continues to stick with these players.

I find it shocking we boo our own at Ibrox and applaud sarcastically when taken off, does nothing to help the team or the player get the result we want. What should we do, send them an email?

Ski 10 Posted July 13, 2018 Share Posted July 13, 2018 Windass cruises this n rightly so. I think the main reason being there is a player in there somewhere but constantly goes missing, lucky to get 5 decent mins outta him per game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

If we want to critique we will, if you want to be a moon man be a moon man. You are far out-numbered for a reason, and it's certainly not because of genius it's because of madness. The problem with you is you attach your own special meaning to what people say, you do not once think to consider "ah, this person has a well laid out argument and has reason for being critical" instead you must automatically jump to "this person just hates windass, why's he even a Rangers supporter?!?!" You're wrong, at the start I respected you and listened to your side of the argument, but in time I eventually aligned with everyone else and found out that you're just incapable of seeing anyone elses side of the arguement. It's your way or the high way. You're way is so high you're floating over the moon. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
