How, in 16 years of being on this forum, have I still not learned not to come into the match thread 

Can’t wait for the day the likes of Wright, Davis & Arfield leave Rangers so we don’t have to put up with Rangers managers substituting them on.

There's 4. Ooft. 

Make the changes now. We are a goal down instead of level so we need to do something to get a goal or two 

60th minute sub. Guaranteed. 

Sands is to blame for the free kick but literally only McGregor is to blame for the goal itself. It’s laughable how bad he was for it 

Send Sands back in January he’s fucking shite

We should not be handing any money over to sign Sands permanently 

Shit plan.
 

Harsh I think. Bad break of the ball. Caught out of position chasing back and gave away a poor foul but not a massive blunder. 
 
I think he would be expecting his keeper to do better 

McGregor cannot be trusted any more. That was completely savable.

I think today demonstrates the importance of playing to your players strengths and not trying to fit them into a playing style and system that they cant execute. 
 
Colak was the one who didn’t make the adjustment today. I hope he finds a way to stay involved as I really like him. 
 
Matondo just always chooses the wrong option but as someone else said there is ability there and if he can get his decision making sorted then He could be a player. 

Boring second half😴

Greegs went off at half time? 

More likely to be Davis and Arfield, sadly.
If Beale means business, he’ll opt for the youngsters.
We’ll see.

Colak might be a victim of this new style/formation. Think it requires a mobile forward as opposed to an old fashioned no.9

Still some terrible decision making but hopefully he will build confidence. 

I know it's only a friendly but imagine we'd played in this manner in the CL. Not saying we'd have qualified but we wouldn't be the worst CL team ever.
 

Gio, Tav and Goldson all guilty for shit like this and it’s not the mentality we need at Rangers: 
"When you have some of your best players coming in and saying, 'we have no chance at this World Cup, the squad is too old', it will affect the mentality of this group," De Bruyne's former Manchester City team-mate Pablo Zabaleta told BBC Sport earlier in the group stages. There’s no passion, no fire." 
"It’s really sad to see that group of players not fighting for their country. My big concern about Belgium is the players saying we’re not the team we used to be. That's not the mentality you bring into the World Cup."

I wanted Beale about 6 weeks ago. But I now admit that I was being a bit rash.
The slump at QPR shows he is not ready for our job yet 
I now hope it’s someone with a bit more experience

I don’t want Beale as our next manager. Fuckin unproven and a risk.

The “sorry it didn’t work out” narrative is probably because GVB was many people’s choice for the job. Mine included. I wanted him appointed and felt he would be brilliant for us 
he has been a disaster. He has also been ridiculously unlucky with injuries but that shouldn’t detract from how bad he has been. He has not been able to get a tune out of any player, his interviews have been insipid and depressing and the regression under him has been palpable. 
 
I agree there are bigger problems at the club but we need a manager that can work with the resources he has. I don’t know who that is but surely the club have someone lined up.
