Ooooooooooo I would have liked to have seen your post if he had said no comment. I'm sure it would have been, well done Ally nice to know you have your finger on the pulse.

I may be wrong but I was under the impression that a number of promising young players didn't come to us because the odds of playing in the first team were better at other clubs. This was prior to our annus horribilis.

Then you woke up.

Well my recollection of our last Hampden meeting was anything but enjoyment. Although the goal in the 91st min did make it a memorable day thankfully.

CG certainly has a way with words. Just for our younger members I found this description Google eye : In the days prior to a certain search-engine's rise to fame, thereby distorting the original meaning, the term "google-eyed" referred to a certain odd and slightly humorous appearance or expression in someone's eyes. Whether the person was slightly cross-eyed, cockeyed, or had a lazy eye, or simply postured their eyes in an odd way during an expression, they were "google-eyed."

Have to agree. I'm amazed at the knowledge on here. My only concern is that when someone is made redundant it usually means the job is defunct. Does this mean we will be hearing about restructuring? I'm sure there may be some on here who think the OP was negative, but Its not as if we've been celebrating new arrivals at Ibrox, or have I missed that.

Where ignorance is bliss, 'tis folly to be wise." Maybe our manager has matured. Instead of his 'everything in the gardens is rosy" attitude he has left it open for the boardroom to answer the questions. Did any of you watch the documentary about Rangers?. The players were told one thing, then less than an hour after were told the opposite from Sky TV. Is it any wonder Ally did not end the speculation today. IMO CG and JT have to deal with this.

Explains a lot.

Hampden will be used for athletics I believe, I can only imagine Parkhead can seat more people for the opening ceremony.

Ibrox will be used for the rugby sevens during the games. Easy mistake to make as it seems most of the money on upgrading has been spent on the east end but I may be wrong.

Sorry I thought they were being held in Glasgow, my mistake.

This maybe true but are the games not in Glasgow. The poverty stats for Govan are horrendous but lets upgrade the east end it needs it more. This maybe a bit off OP but every time I think about the money that has been used to upgrade the area around Parkhead I just wonder how they managed to get the plans passed. I may be wrong but have we ever managed to utilise any of the area around Ibrox apart from maybe a car park.

TBH legally I hope we've got this in the bag. Lets face it, if everyone that bad mouthed their job on the phone were to be sacked, im sure a few of us would be unemployed. On the other hand playing for the light blues with his salary and lifestyle it seems unbelievable he was unhappy.

Oooooooo. A bit of respect for an ex Rangers then, nice.

I'm wondering how much team experience some of our young lads have had. Were they the generation that were not allowed to play for their school or club teams. I did notice Fleck mentioned the experience core of e team helped him, unfortunately our experienced guys are still learning each others strengths and weaknesses, maybe that's why they're not looking their best.

TBH I think the players agents are behind most of the rumours.

Mmm mm no and no but in his defence he has won the league with a team that was thrown together. I'm trying to be positive and feel that on occasion some of the football has been attractive and we have scored some good goals. I also have a number of negative points but that's for another day.

Mmm mm he's just a fan like yourself that's not happy with our team. I get it. Your all feeling a bit negative about our future. We aren't the team we were and its the managers fault. Well I'm sick of hearing all this negative drivel. We have enough enemies without our own supporters bringing us down. I have negative opinions about our team but I'm trying to be constructive. You have to build a team and that's not easy when you've lost the core.

Lol my mistake. I thought I was reading about all the players that we could have signed that were not any better than the ones we got. How wrong could I have been. You pointed me in the correct direction with your last statement quote 'look at the players brought in from spl that are strangers to form from what we know of them from last year................could this be as a result of Ally using them out of position...I don't know , but they have looked lost on the park. ". Oh nothing negative about this. Maybe you should consider that the SPL players from last year had been playing in well established teams, unlike our team of young players and maybe that's why they have struggled.

Why not put your investigative mind into looking for future stars instead of wasting it on the past. You have made your point another negative post about Our manager. Can you name any out of contract stars of the future, because that's what we need. It's always easy to judge with 20/20 hindsight .

I agree with the defence quote, but our midfield needs a stronge playmaker IMO.

Maybe not a champagne celebration but I've just enjoyed a bottle of prossecco and it was perfect. Congratulations to the boys.

Nice to see a fair opinion on our manager. Welcome hope you enjoy as much as I have.

Today we should be celebrating winning the 3rd division. Instead I'm reading this negative drivel about our manager. We are trying to bring young players through in a team with very little experience. Last week we had to read some 29 year old SA players statement slating our young player and their commitment to our team, why, because he thought when he started out he gave everything. Well Im sure the team he played for at 17 had a lot more experience around him, than our lads have had in their 1st year together. All this negative talk just makes me sick. Have you considered that our boys are great at training and are having trouble playing in front of such large crowds while on occasion out of position.. Maybe hearing CG say they are the worst Rangers team ever didn't help. Instead of all this negativity, can you not give them a chance. Our manager and his coaching team may not be the dream team, but they have won the league and that is what they were asked to do. My rant is over. I have to admit I missed the game today so I apologise if it was horrendous. Also any cracks about small crowds next year will not be appreciated .

So you noticed lol . We have had an occasional 15 or 20 min when things were looking good, unfortunately it doesn't last.
