Number5

Davies is a very good manager, has a track record of getting results with mediocre sides. The Derby stat being the worst ever team in the prem was due to the guy totally over-achieving that season, they weren't ready for the championship never mind the prem. The problem he seems to have is he is a little cunt, mouths off a lot and speaks his mind, often to the media. Don't think he's exactly a chairmans dream.

I don't want Ally to go and want him to carry us forward, however the results we're getting and the way we're playing is down to him.

Just don't buy into that. New players, yes it takes time to gel, but there are little or no signs of a change in style, we should be looking at the very least, the better, more composed, better technical side in all the games we've had up to now.

I voted yes just because when all around Ibrox was changing and nobody seemed to know what was going on, 'Rangers men' leaving us left, right and centre, getting kicked to fuck by everyone associated with Scottish football, Ally was the constant, the one thing that made me think we'd be alright. He's had a shite start, worse than any off could of expected (considering I was expecting at least 4 goal pumpings every week), but I think he merits until Jan. I don't think he can do it own his own and needs some quality, experienced coaches along side him, because lets get it right, everyone on this board knows that changes are needed in playing styles etc yet nothing has happened?

It's the most basic of skills, in fact it's not even a skill, opening you eyes and throwing a ball 30yrds. Surely this must be what Ally is asking of him though. Big useless punts down the field. For it too be going on for so long it's obviously what the manager wants.

Is that one thats just off the beachfront near a new Bar/Club complex as if your going further out of town. Stumbled across it in 2011 to watch the old firm when we did them 4-2, it was about the only place that the game was getting shown. Spurs vs Liverpool was on so we played second fiddle. There must have been 20 guys watching the PL game quiet as anything, and about 5 of us watching the old firm going mental! Had a good drink in there with a couple of older boys, good little bar (if i'm thinking of the same one)

Cheers lads. Think I'll give that Bar None a visit and say 'hello'.

Anyone been to the area and know of any decent Bear friendly bars? Going on the weekend of the Forres game, anyone know if its going to be on TV?

Live South of the border, about an hour north of Manchester. The motorway was a constant flow of bears days before the final! Proud as fuck i was! Getting calls off ma pals who were working in and around Manchester saying it was a mass of blue. Took a couple mates down on the train. They were in absolute awe as the train bounced for the 1hr journey. Magic! Then the city itself was incredible. Singing, drinking, partying and meeting fellow Rangers, superb. Those boys i took down that day are very much Bears today!

Great news. The best 'signings' yet!

Up until i watched saturdays game, i've been fully behind Scotland, however i'm just not getting the same heart felt reactions i got only months ago. I fucking love being Scottish, i hope that i get my passion back, levein and the rest of these fucks better move over soon before my hatred for them superseed my love for my country!

I am sure Rhys McCabe and all the others who left to line their pockets must be looking back now with a mix of envy and shame. Being a young guy at Rangers, getting the chance to play every other week in front of 45k+, being part of something very special. Lets get it right where is his career going to go? How many cup finals will he play in? How many league titles will he win? All for what, a couple of quid more. He will NEVER play for a team of our stature again! Enjoy a very very forgettable career Rhys.

I will always support Scotland, I totally understand all the feelings towards Fuck the SFA Fuck Levein etc etc, but it's a gut thing for me. I must admit I'm not looking forward to the games like I have in the past and I'll just be wtching them from home, but I still would want my country to perform well. However It's Catch 22, as I think Levein is a Clown and would love to see this man fail, obviously our success as a nation would reflect well on him and that would be the only perverse reason for me wanting anything other than a Scottish win, too see the back of him?!

"I've known Josef for years and let me tell you, you will never meet a kinder, loving family man in your life"

Superb! Bet there absolutly gutted!! The first to face the wrath!!

Shiels for me. Always wants to be on the ball and make things happen. Been really impressed with Black though, better player than I'd given him credit for.

I've lived in England for 25 years now and grown up with alot of my mates. These boys are happy to take the piss, but through the years i've converted the majority of them to have a genuine interest in us. These lads tend to read up and not take everything they read as the truth, asking questions etc. But I'd say on the whole most football fans I know couldn't give a fuck about us. Back in the 90's there was a higher level of interest when I could actually say that we would have easily competed in the top flight in England. I was at a party the other day, only knew the hosts. When i heard some Manc Fans, banging on about the state of Rangers and how we were a joke, not one of those idiots knew anything, it was just rubbish sproating from their mouths, they then went onto bang on about how Manchester was ruined by our fans. Put those boys straight quick sharp! I'd say 75% of people in England just don't care, unless they have mates who are bears.

Just what I've been thinking. It seems like we just get offered guys who have a half decent CV. Ally must just have a fucking huge list of players that agents have told him would be interested. Get the scouts on the case!

Totally agree. It was chronic in the SPhell but it shouldn't be now and shouldn't be from this day onwards. If we are poor on the pitch then i blame both the players and the manager, the style in which we play is down to Ally however. Every away game has been pish.... I can accept defeat/points dropped against the run of play. But that hadn't been the case. Has Ally been poaching young guys, 16-20 year olds from around the UK for our future developement? Im not sure. Its what i'd be doing though.

I dont know Cribaris standard, but he's not à young inexpérienced kid who could improve with age. Sandaza is à high earner, Allys choice. Ally has brought in these players, giving them spl wages, hopefully spent time scouting them, it'll be different in a months time i have no doubt. My problem lies with the style in which we play.

Not just the boys you mentioned, you forgot about the others? ( I'll leave the young gers out of this) Big Jig, Sandaza, Cribari, Perry... The others that have been brought in too do a job. Did you watch this game and think, fucking Yes Ally, got it spot on. He's not had an ideal time of it, but he's got à fucking belting opportunity to start again, our off days should still be head and shoulders above. Like i say i love Ally, but lets not all sit back and accept this. We'll win this league i have no doubt, but it's not about this year or the next year, it's, in my eyes, schooling players for the future. I hope Ally is the man to take us forward .

The tactics are poor. Lets get it right, Coisty has players available to him that should be competing in the spl never mind in the lower reaches. Anyone who thinks this is acceptable and all th is bollocks with he's lost x amount of players and he's had no pre-season etc are defending the indefensible! If we were playing good football and he was trying things, being adventurous but still getting draws then fair enough, he's playing the long ball yet kyle isn't starting? Just fucking poor. I really hope he sorts it out, the mans à legend and roughed it out with the rest of us.

It was. I remember it well. Cruising around town with the full strip on!

Must be a load of pish. Fuck me, at this rate we're going to have the better team than we did last season!! He'll get £30k somewhere else, no way we could afford his wages. What a signing it would be though.
