  1. I think sometimes fees for players get deliberately exaggerated by the board to make it look like they're spending money. The problem with that is it comes back to bite them when the player ends up being shite.
  2. Playing to 16000 fans in a shithole like Saudi. What a way to bow out.
  3. Ross Wilson referring to himself in the third person was a pure David Brent moment.
  4. The covid question. Douglas Park is a torn faced old prick.
  5. They always do. Ally, Warburton, Pedro, Le Guen. All of them claimed to 'get it'.
  6. My gut says the job's too big for him, but here's hoping he proves me wrong.
  7. They both have that 'the coach has put on a suit' look about them. I obviously want Beale to do really well and if he does then I won't give a fuck what he looks or sounds like. However, coaching and managing are 2 completely different jobs and I'm just not that confident about his appointment given his lack of managerial experience (at least Gerrard brought some status with him that inspired a bit more confidence - even if only to attract players). Giving Beale a 3.5 year deal also seems bonkers. Can only hope there's a get out clause based on results.
  8. I didn't say he was, I said he looked like one. I'll await your apology.
  9. Graeme Murty looked and sounded like an assistant manager. Walter Smith looked and sounded like a manager. Agree? Being a manager at Rangers is about more than just tactics and formation. Obviously if results are great then I won't mind if he doesn't look or sound the part, but at this point I'm not confident about Beale and no amount of insults or bullying is going to change my mind.
  10. Clearly mixing me up with someone else. Haven't buzzed about a manager appointment since Walter came back.
  11. I know you shouldn't judge a book by it's cover etc, but Michael Beale still looks and sounds like an assistant coach.
  12. I'm going to be honest and say I'm not filled with confidence about this appointment.
  13. Me as well. Put it on mute and now watching plumbing videos on TikTok.
  14. Could've been describing me there. Sharp, quick and penetrative.
  15. He only played a couple of friendlies for Scotland.
  16. Is it just me or does the atmosphere feel more like the Olympics than the World Cup?
  17. I'm always sad when any of our managers get sacked, usually because it means we're trailing the tarriers and we've been papped out of Europe. Being an ex player or a nice guy doesn't really factor into it.
