He'll be fine tomorrow and Thursday. He's part of a group of players who failed in our first season back in the top flight and because of that get stick no matter how well they do for the club. There's not a single one of our players who gained promotion from the Championship who have been spared from unfair criticism on here. He's a dreadful footballer who should never have been at Ibrox, Livingston/Motherwell etc is about his level. His propensity to give the ball away plus his inability to tackle (without slapping the ground) and his positional sense are all shocking. Yes, he did well in the Championship, that's his level.

Better players around him also to help him out especially as it’s not his natural position and our centre backs are much more switched on than recent seasons, will help him out. He’ll do us a shift. I hope if he plays that he repays the confidence you have in him, he's the same level as Hodson. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I hope so to pal. Like I say not the best option but I honestly believe he’d give his all for us every time asked like anyone of us would. Hopefully he won’t let us or himself down. Guy deserves that at least. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Possibly but he was instrumental in getting us promoted. Some of our fans man! I've only ever noticed his poor positional sense in the defensive midfield position. Blame Warburton for shoe-horning him in there, not Andy. My point about the players who got us promoted has been missed. We went in to that first season in the top fight back on such a high that when it all came crashing down everyone was to blame and there is not a single player who has survived this fans' mindset of unfairly labelling them pish. Not one. Even the man Gerrard has named our captain - who has had ridiculously unfair criticism on here. Halliday is more than good enough to be back up in our squad.

Spliffy 643 Posted August 11, 2018 Share Posted August 11, 2018 Halliday in at LB for the logic that he is the only one available for Thursday and he will need a bit of game time. Would be mad to go changing everything when it's working so well. Bring Barisic on at some point though of course. Would play Kent at LW for work rate and tracking back to help Halliday when needed. Jack out so McCrorie or Ejaria. Would go with McCrorie to start and if we need a bit of creativity bring Ejaria on. Rest of the team picks itself currently.

He seems to me to be in a long line of players that have the unfortunate title of being a bear. People expect that to mean your as good as messi or Ronaldo and if not get to fuck. He’s living his dream and will stand up if asked.

For me it would be Halliday but if he has a different player in mind to replace the suspended Flanagan then surely that player has to play tomorrow. It will be interesting to see the team line up tomorrow. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
plumbGER 24,518 Posted August 12, 2018 Share Posted August 12, 2018 Hopefully a good convincing win to crank up the pressure on St Brendan. Really looking forward to tomorrows game, as is my boy, Gerrard so far has made some difference to how we are feeling in the week leading up to games so long may it continue. 3-0 Rangers.
