  1. A few more translations from Portuguese sayings: When the plastic paddy with the furry teeth makes a big noise its just his *rse collapsing When the team of monkeys from the East finish the season they will still have no trophies When all the noise dies down the team with the greatest history will still be Rangers
  2. couldn't possible click like button on this comment, no, absolutely not, maybe. no. But I do hope the pugilist with the professional performances and past takes the Irish bearded hooligan and pounds his rude obstreperous bearded carapace into a flat pancake of putrescent pulchritudinous pulp.
  3. yes, badly written but i think many will agree on some of it.
  4. IF you put any number of players on the end of a Gordon Durie cross or a ball played to you by Brian Laudrup it would make any of us look good. I can make a distinction between Ally the player and Ally the manager but there were so many players ahead of him in any of those 9IAR teams. Glad he was there to bang in those goals but Albertz, Negri, Ameruso, Michkalichenko, Rino, and so many others played their part. Souness knew it back in the day too.
  5. Nah, much as I disagree with Pedro's public shaming it also acts as a clear declaration that MOH is for sale. St Johnston or similar teams will be happy to have him, but he isn't a true professional. He's fast but not bright enough and he is lacking in guts and integrity. In this I think we can all agree with Pedro.
  6. its poor management to throw those under you in front of a bus to deflect from your own pressure/failings. It's cowardly, bullying, and lacking in class. No Rangers manager in the past has ever been so callous or gutless as Pedro is here. Even Le Guen had class.
  7. It's probably bang on the money but in a professional world it isn't cool to bad mouth a player in such a public way. We should never have brought him in that seems certain. That maybe goes for MOH or PC, not certain.
  8. So.... we always win, even when we don't win, so we.... whoosh! Great in training. Vomit. Blah. Stronger than ever. Gash. Trained even harder. Trumpet-heid. We should ALWAYS train to our best. If there is room to do more then why haven't we done that before losing 2-3 to Hibs? Oh but we shall go and work even harder because obviously we didn't work them hard enough before. Maybe he could say "Hodson will not play for Rangers again." or "I think we need to give Millar a long break" or "Sorry guys I need to go and rethink my understanding of tactics." or "If I can't beat Hearts I'll go and pack my backs."
  9. Because it's 2017. I must be missing context or something.
  10. Err... do you have a calendar on your computer mate?
  11. No excuses. Our manager is tactically deficient. He can do some things perhaps. It may be that he can get performances from some players but time and again we are not seeing the level and quality we deserve. Our keeper isn't good enough either. This was a marker that needed to be laid down after the cup game. Not good enough.
  12. Even the scorer didn't think that was going in, Fod is not good enough.
  13. Sorry, Ibrox and Celtic Park are both used. You are imagining bias in this instance.
  14. Again. The size of this club and its history and stature are exactly the point, Rangers should have been run on a more professional and economically viable footing. A small number of frees is a viable way to move staff and allow others to be brought in, a wholesale giveaway panic bloodletting is unprofessional, not sustainable, and makes Rangers into a bit of a joke. No sizeable club with such history and stature should be a joke. The status of Rangers has everything to do with it. Looking at another financial aspect of the club the Sports Direct deal: again, no club with the fan base and marketing potential of Rangers should be giving away their name for such a tiny percentage. In reality Rangers have invested money in training, development, medical care, and more in a large number of players. Poor business for any club of any size.
  15. He will be given his chance provided he shows something in training and the situation requires it. An injury or a sub when we are coasting.
  16. It's not the point. Letting one or two players go for free is one thing, letting all except Matt Gilks go for free is shambolic.
  17. The argument still stands: Rangers cannot be the kind of club that can release so many players for nothing. This season we have moved on Garner, Keirnan, and Waghorn for 'something'. None of those Warburton players is worth 'nothing' and somebody is always in the market for players like Law, Clarke, MacGregor, Aird, Shiels, Crawford, Bell and the rest.
  18. We seriously failed in more than just the football dept last few seasons, without a doubt. Templeton, Bell, Aird, Dean Shiels, Gasparotto, Nicky Clarke, Nicky Law, Andy Murdoch, Robbie Crawford all for free. I mean, even if we don't really rate them, I have to stop and say that again, for FREE! Ok Gilks was an undisclosed amount so I got that one wrong.
  19. In praise of Pedro and the current system: last season we let go so many players for nothing, GIlks, Barton, Nicky Law and several others all went on a free. Think about that. Free. Now even if you were glad to get rid of these players that is madness. A team the size of Rangers letting players go for free in this day and age (and Warburton is supposed to be from a business background) it's almost laughable. Compare that with the movement of Garner, Waghorn, and the rest. It's still too early to get carried away with PC's management but something seems to be going right doesn't it?
  20. I'm not the only one who said we need to judge PC on the next few games and nothing changes there. The team last season was not PCs team and he can be forgiven the Aberdeen Celtic losses somewhat, Progress in Luxembourg is still a sorry result which he is accountable for: however we were without game time and his first choice of players (we can all agree that no Rangers team should be defeated by such a wee pub team and that's an unavoidable reality). I admire the way he has cleared his decks and moved players on. I admire the way he has brought in some players who are clearly decent (jury still out on Pena and Dalcio of course). If he defeats Hibs and if Rangers can maximise their points over the next 3-4 games then we will know we have a fine manager. It is looking good, especially Alves, Cardoso, Dorrans, Morelos, and Candeias but not getting carried away yet.
  21. Windass has had the softly softly approach from the previous manager/best buddy/pal. If our manager thinks its worth a little bit of humiliation, mixed with some praise for the first half effort, then I'm all for it. You don't make men with kindness and diplomacy. I agree you want to keep most stuff 'in house' but sometimes a young person needs a cold hard slap of reality.
  22. Not many people buy newspapers so newspapers need to sex up stories shocker! RIP printed news.
  23. Rangers are not here to provide players chances to prove themselves however Rangers have already given Mr Waghorn ample opportunities to prove himself, and he proved beyond any doubt that he is not good enough. How much more additional 'proving' should we allow... 3 seasons? 4 seasons?
  24. If this is who McKay really is I'd boot his baws and send him to play with the kids too. Spoiled wee lassie. I'm a big boy he says while greetin about not getting a hug from his new gaffer. Fair play to Pedro for showing him the door. McKay never played his best even for Warburton so using this as a stick to hit Pedro with is ridiculous. We complain about Ally McCoist being too much of a pal and Warburton playing his favs despite one woeful performance after another. I want a manger who shakes it up and demands more 'grown up' attitude. I think our biggest problem these last two seasons has been players living it out in their imaginations that they are superstars without putting in any kind of evidence. Barton, Niko, Garner, Forrester, Wallace, McKay et al.
