No idea why PC brought Lammers on. A gutless and useless player. He offered absolutely nothing.

Yes so was I but not as baffled when Lammers was brought on. He offers nothing. Matondo would have been my sub instead of Roofe. I'd rather he brought on Souttar and left Lammers on the bus.

Had one goal chalked off, had one saved by the keeper's reaction save and the second chance wasn't as bad as it looked once I saw a tv replay from a different camera angle.

If you are correct about overspill, there better be a facility to ask questions from that location.

McCausland must be the RW now, if not there was little point in getting him to sign long-term. One option which was never tried was putting Tav on RW and bringing in a RB.

No worries buddy. I'm pretty much in the dark about wages but looking on internet and trying to see who gets what is how I reached the wages.

100% , he was motm for me as well. Played in his position and played well. He is our best creative player by a long way. Have to add that Butland had one outstanding save and I have to give him credit for it as it probably stopped a melt-down at that point in the game.

I saw that bit about bonus payments which makes me wonder wtf are the bonus levels???

Not sure. Wage figures taken from internet or mainstream media.

Not my guesswork. Just what I could find online.

Thanks to Ross Wilson, GvB and Beale we have a bloated squad of utter mince. The money spent on transfer fees, signing-on fees and wages is simply disgraceful. God knows how we will get even half of them off the books and at what cost in terms of taking massive losses on fees and possibly having to either lump sum pay-offs or making up the wage differences. From the last two summer transfer windows, these are the players I'd want gone ASAP: Souttar signing-on fee, 4 yr contract, always injured, not very good. Matondo £2.7 m, 4 yr contract, weekly wage £18k to £28k, not very good. Davies £4 m, 4 yr contract, weekly wage £27k, not very good. Yilmaz £5.29 m, 5 yr contract, weekly wage £12k, not very good. Dowell Signing-on fee, 3 yr contract, weekly wage £16k, not very good. Sterling Signing-on fee, 4 yr contract, weekly wage £18k, not very good. Lammers £3.5 m, 4 yr contract, weekly wage £21.5k , utter mince. Dessers £4.3 m, 4 yr contract, weekly wage £20k, utter mince. Cifuentes £2.7 m, 4 yr contract, weekly wage £16k , utter mince. We have the perma-injured Roofe and on-loan Sima both on big bucks. The whole situation is demoralising.

Souttar and Davies both culpable at their goal. Both are really poor.

I'd rather players were subbed if they are utter crap even if they are following orders. Clement worries me because it was obvious that Cantwell should have been moved centrally behind Danilo. Cantwell is our main creative player. Sima was anonymous, Lammers was simply awful as was Cifuentes. Souttar and Davies make Balogun and Goldson look like Sergio Ramos in his prime.

Worrying that Clement said Cantwell wasn't following instructions. Begs the question, were Lammers, Cifuentes and Sima following instructions? Were Davies and Souttar?

Add in Sterling, Souttar, Dowell.

Spot on.

Good to see. Hope he mentioned to Prince William that his dad's photo is proudly displayed on our dressing room wall. Also that his grandma's photo adorns our wall above the dressing room door.

No mate, Stuart wasn't on the old fans' board but he was one of the independent group who whittled down the long list of candidates before the fans voted.

Very sad news. I've known Stuart for more than 50 years. He used to go to games on our bus back in the seventies. He was a really nice guy and I had been expecting to see him next week. He will be sorely missed by all involved with Rangers. It was a pleasure being his friend.

I thought he did ok particularly in 2nd half.

On the mentality issue, for me the problem is we have no proper leadership on the park. We have no real captain, no driving force to encourage, cajole, bully or basically do whatever it takes to get that extra effort out of players when the chips are down. It's been a problem for years now. Tav and Goldson are not leaders.

Correct. To be fair to Lundstram he couldn't do much more with his header.

Sima was anonymous yesterday. Should have been subbed at half time. I was disappointed in Clement leaving him on so long as it was obvious Sima needed replaced.

Any win will do me. What I do want to see is an improvement on our usual first 10/15 mins. The team needs a rocket up them before kick off. Still no leadership on the park. Couldn't make a captain out the whole squad. That is probably our single most important failing.
