Manchester Utd showed a bit of loyalty to a certain Alex Ferguson has it hindered them? And what was his job to bring through young players Aird, McKay, Macleod, Crawford and before that Ness and McCabe is it a coincidence they are all midfielders and its the only part of the youth setup that seems to produce talent?

This was the only reason i could think of but he doesn't seem the kind of person to worry about the backlash as he is a coward and wouldn't have been seen at Ibrox again anyway unless he really is mentally unstable.

The fans are always talking about loyalty from players and ex players Durrant would have taken a paycut last year if not work for nothing to help Rangers does this not entitle him to some loyalty from us?

Has Craig Whyte broken the law by setting up a front and trying to pick up the assets of Rangers on the cheap ? And if he hasn't broken the law then why did he not set up a new company in his own name and pick up the assets on the cheap ?

ROBBIE CRAWFORD reckons Rangers’ rising stars would have sunk without a trace but for Ian Durrant. Against a backdrop of internal strife, the threat of civil war looms large over a troubled Ibrox. Gers may have swept to the Third Division championship, but controversial chief executive Charles Green has undermined manager Ally McCoist with the sackings of their physio Pip Yeates, chief scout Neil Murray and striker Fran Sandaza in a two-week rampage. Claims that first-team coach Durrant and McCoist’s trusted No2 Kenny McDowall could be next to go were denied by the embattled Rangers boss. But the timing of the reports only added to the uncertainty surrounding the club. At just 20, it would have been unfair to put young Crawford on the spot yesterday morning. Yet he spoke with maturity and authority when asked to name those who’ve helped him and the rest of the Ibrox kids through their debut rollercoaster campaign. Crawford confessed: “It’s been a massive learning curve this season — with everything that’s gone on. “The young boys were thrown in and it was a case of sink or swim. You didn’t really have a chance to think about anything, you just had to get on with it. “That’s where guys like Ian Durrant were brilliant. “They would spend a lot of time with the younger players and they were always there when you needed them. “Lee McCulloch was also good for the younger lads. “Ian would take all your questions and he was just always there. “You learn a lot about yourself when you’re pitched into a situation like we found ourselves in. “Guys like Ian know the football club inside out so he helps you appreciate the size and history. “The young boys have come through the youth team together so we know what it’s all about. That said, it’s still a big step up.” McCoist and his players were left fuming before Sunday’s 4-1 mauling of Queen’s Park when Green repeated his claim that the current Gers side is the worst in the club’s history. McCoist threw down a ‘show us your medals’ challenge to his CEO, while Crawford insists Gers’ Hampden romp PROVES they’re not a team of duds. Midfielder Crawf said: “You have to put that to one side. “We just have to worry about our own performances. “Everyone will have their own opinions, we don’t believe it. “We don’t worry about it either, we just get on with it. The pressure was off at the weekend and we showed what a good team we are.” Crawford admits he hasn’t drawn breath since first-team football was foisted upon him at Ibrox. He added: “It’s been an incredible past year. “This time a year ago I was holding down a place in the Under-19 team not knowing if I’d be offered a new deal. Everything has changed. I don’t think I’ve taken it all in. “It’s hard to look back and try and digest it because throughout the course of the campaign your focus is always the next game. “That’s what I’ve tried to do at least. Maybe in the summer I’ll have time and a chance to reflect on everything and try and learn from it. “This year has been something else. You can only learn from it.” And while he knows McCoist is destined to strengthen when Gers’ transfer ban is lifted, Crawford hopes he still has a part to play next season. He said: “I know the manager will bring in new players over the summer. That was always going to happen. “You’ve just got to hope that he doesn’t forget about you. It’s my job to ensure he doesn’t. “The manager has shown a lot of faith in the young boys. “He’s had to because of the situation at the club. “But I think we’ve responded really well and hopefully we can kick on for next season. “The fact we’ve won the title I hope will be enough to stay in the manager’s plans for next year. “We’re treated as first-team players now so the aim is to kick on for next season.” Crawford was thrilled to help Rangers wrap up the Third Division title. He beamed: “It was great just to get over the line in terms of actually winning the championship. “It was a bit of a relief in the end to be honest. “Our performances hadn’t been great leading up to it but we managed to get it done and that’s the most important thing. “I think the fact the title is now out of the way really helped us at the weekend. “We played very well against Queen’s Park and deserved the win. “Perhaps the real big difference is the pressure is now off us. “We can now go and play football without the fear.” Why would you want to get rid of Ian Durrant why not keep him but introduce another coach that Ally, Durrant and Kenny McDowall can bounce ideas off someone to introduce fresh training methods we should be looking at growing the coaching staff but bring someone in that will shake it up a bit.

Dave King ?

Can Charles and his investors not just sell Rangers on then Shytey won't be able to get anywhere near the club again one thing is for sure its time to get Green out of the media spotlight and push James Traynor to deal with all statements why hire him and not let him do his job.

Just as i thought a member of the laptop loyal.

It doesn't matter who is running Rangers next year wether its Charlie Green or Charlie Brown we are still on the up new players will be coming in to improve the squad the youngsters will have a years experience under their belts and will hopefully come out the traps flying there are stadium improvements happening as we speak the new kit will be out we have money in the bank with more to come when we renew our season tickets we are a year closer to European football the future is bright the future is blue and white to the lurkers see you on the way up.

Go and take a fuck to yourself thats my opinion on the matter i have strong morals and ethics and i won't change them for a prick like you i will be at Ibrox next year where will you be?

If there was the same level of interest by the media on all the other clubs in the SPL i'm sure they would find a lot more criminality than what they have ever found at Ibrox.

No from me im sick and tired of money grabbing cunts like Whyte and Green milking Rangers fans for as much as they can.

If the screens are getting modernised we will probably be looking at having music concerts at Ibrox to bring in more revenue they will pay for themselves.

Thanks ignore that clown he is an idiot.

That i am chef some just say think and sensitive but you hit the nail on the heid big man.

I do like an argument though lol and a wind up once i'm on a roll its hard to stop got me banned from ff and guess why? Some cunt accused me of being a tim fuckin prick lol.
