the brown brogue

I was waiting for him to be taken off after 60 seconds as a precaution

The club and it seems a decent proportion of our fanbase have developed a pathological fear of change, hence us sticking with the same players year after year clinging on to myths like Morelos can ragdoll an entire back four on his own and the tarriers are terrified of Kent. I'd happily see them out the door and into obscurity at whichever league they end up in.
However as others have said I fully expect the same situation with these two as Goldson, no interest from the level of club they think they should be playing at and Ross Wilson waiting in the wings with a gold plated long term contract for them both so he can 'concentrate fully on strengthening other positions'. Which he'll then do by resigning McGregor, Jack, Arfield and Davis.

Think it's a bit unfair on the board, after all they're currently tied up with their strategic planning on 'stopping the 10' in 7 years time.
Fully expect the good news to come out now that the club is delighted to announce contract extensions for Arfield, Jack, McGregor and Davis as they're great lads to have around the place and know what being a Ranger is all about.

Sakala is like when there's a sprinter playing in the Soccer Aid game, pace to burn but shite at everything else and zero awareness of what's going on around him.

I don't think their back four is any better than ours, the difference is their midfield run themselves into the ground and cover every blade of grass while ours jog around not breaking sweat and their forwards press and pressure high up the park whilst ours trip over their own feet and shin the ball out of play all the time.

At least Cantwell tried to press high up the park, the starting 3 midfielders looked like they'd given up the minute the game kicked off.

Fucked that with the utter balls up of a starting line up and fucked it again with not changing it quick enough. If we'd started with midfielders who could actually be arsed breaking into a sweat we'd have won it. Beale HAS to learn from that.

It’s the same fucking movie 
every single fucking time 
and we never do anything different to change it 

Chasing shadows for 45 minutes. We're miles off it today, no energy or effort in the middle of the park at all. Honestly can't work out what our tactics are other than to launch it up the park to no-one and hope for the best. Beale has got things badly wrong so far, big change in personnel and attitude needed at half time.

It's not sustainable and at some point we're not going to manage to get back into the game regardless of what Beale says or does at half time. Still think we're treading water a bit and struggling to implement what Beale wants, as we all know the squad desperately needs freshened up now. We can't afford to scratch around until the summer, we need new faces in the door to get then settled in and ready for an assault on the league next season.

If they don't then Beale won't hang around long. Next two weeks will probably tell us everything we need to know.

The usual suspects jogging around like they've accepted the league is done and they know we don't have the money or desire to replace them anyway.

See if Arfield gets another contract extension as he's 'a great character to have around the place' I think I'll give up on football.

If anyone at our club sanctions the money to make Sands permanent they shouldn't just lose their job - they should be taken out and shot on Edmiston Drive.
 
 

Yip we truly fucked that. Woeful first half, which is a worry in itself, but at least we showed character and desire on the second half that I thought was gone and they rarely looked like troubling us... until we shoot ourselves in the foot with those substitutions and change of shape that completely nullified our main threat in Sakala. Utterly deflating and a huge opportunity blown.
 

Hopefully Beale realises this now, if not then the board should 100% refuse to sanction a contract extension.

Brilliant strike, Lundstrams our only midfielder with that in his locker

Mcgregor is now at the standard of women's football where any shot on target not floated straight at the keeper hits the back of the net.
