    Love debating with you Sammy. ?

    I wouldn't have signed Barton or Krancjar it was too big gamble. I would've said signed the other 3 Windass Crooks & Rossiter along with an experienced solid pro who could hold the midfield together and lead them on a match day. 

    Again with Kenny no forward is setting the heather on fire with their goal scoring its a team effort, just like we don't have a couple of superstars to carry the weight of an average team. But he brings a passion and leadership on the pitch that seems sadly lacking these days. 

    Your keeping me from a vodka frenzy as well ya bugger. ??

    Sorry I don't rate Miller a bang average player who has pulled the wool over a lot of people's eyes including MW. Busy doing not a lot but that's only my opinion. Forwards are judged by goals scored and if anyone thinks that 4 goals in something like 1200  minutes of league football is acceptable that's up to them.I do not think that that's good enough but I have seen threads how just about every player is not good enough except the elephants in the room which really astounds me. Criticise where it's due but criticise everyone who is due it not just the usual suspects.

    Why are moving onto Miller and away from Haliday ? I simply pointed out that across the team most have gave us a great game at one time this season. 

    I will point out again that Kenny brings much more than just his goals to the team this season. 

    I'm moving away from AH as there was no reason to single out AH for one mistake in a game that we won. If we want to start this pish let's criticise every player not just Halliday.Was it Halliday who missed a good chance against Hearts? Was it Halliday whos defending at the Hearts goal that wasn't pretty poor,was it Halliday who missed a good one on one opportunity against Aberdeen. No it wasn't but I must have missed the threads about those fuck ups or do they not count.No one want to mention the elephants in the room as my mate says no let's just have a go at AH

    We need Squad players plan and simple. 

    We were going to build this seasons team around Barton and Krancjar and that's a fact along with Rossiter. 

    Your saying Barton and Krancjar were not required really, tell me why we are way behind the mhanks with last seasons midfield then? 

    Yes we need squad players but not players who do their talking on twitter and not on the pitch,we also need players playing who can finish 90 minutes not blowing out their arse after 45 minutes. If you think we are where we are due to our midfield and specifically AH and not more down to the fact that our forward line have not been putting the chances away which includes Miller,a fact if you look at the goals for table,a fact that both Miller and the manager have said then you are grasping at straws sir.

    Yes he was much better than his last game, still a long way to go but he has improved. 

    As for your assessment of Miller if you can't see what Kenny brings to the team as a leader then the debate isn't really going to get anywhere. 

    Well I can see what a forward who has scored one more goal than a midfielder you are saying is not good enough is doing for the team.If Waghorn has a long way to go then where does that put Miller then who has played twice as many minutes but managed one goal more.Take it he has a long way to go then as well.

    So why did Warburton buy a whole new midfield if Haliday was up to the job. Rossiter and Barton were direct replacements for Haliday never mind Crooks. 

    What difference does it make if he's a Rangers fan or not? Are we meant to allow him to be under par because he a Bear. 

    And why did the manager extend the contracts of both Halliday and  Holt and prey tell me of all this new midfield that were bought how many are still with us and how many are actually playing?

    Yes what difference does it make you brought it up.Do you honestly think he was brought and plays for Rangers soley because he's a Rangers supporter really. Do you honestly think we were going to build a team for the future round Barton and Kranjcar. I will have a go at the manager with regards to those two,not required and it has been proved.

    All the Haliday is one of us fans should ponder on this. 

    If Barton hadn't been his usual dick self and Krancjar, Rossiter and Windass  hadn't got injured Haliday wouldn't be anywhere near that starting 11, but it's ok he's Uber so he is. 

    And again IF and that's a big IF do all those guys play in AH position.Since when was it such a crime for a Rangers supporter to play for Rangers and until all these guys that are injured actually get fit we will never know  IF  they will do a better job will we.

    Aye, thought McKay was outstanding tonight Miller has been great in games Hill also Fod has kept us in games, Garner has been great at leading the line. Most of the team have at one game or another stepped up and played a great game, Haliday hasn't. 

    The point is Haliday plays a pivotal role, its his job to grab the game by the scruff of the neck and lead us to a win, he simply can't do it at this level. He's a good honest pro but he's not good enough to play in a Rangers midfield trying to win 55. 

    So Miller has been great.Enough said.

  8. It's as if some are just sitting waiting on AH to make a mistake so they can say this and that.Pity they don't put as much effort into giving the guy the credit he is due now and then.This place at times is quite ridiculous.Rangers win but we will spend more posts on one mistake made by one player than congratulating the team.Strange place right enough.

    :lol: if we were drawing we would have lost  to their goal - if we would have scored more the win would have been larger - if - if - if - oh wAit it's RM we can't Win without someone moaning or picking players out to have a go at 

    Place is fucking shocking

    Mate I'm happy we were outstanding for 77 mins but we should've been out of sight. But we need to turn our play into goals and we will be challenging the mhanks, instead of panic stations for the last 13 mins because we can't convert the chances our play deserves. 

    That's been our problem all season.Games we have drawn where we have missed chances.But tonight we thoroughly deserved our win and thats what we got.

    Yes money should be spent, but I would rather 2/3 players bought for 10mill and the best we have at Auchenhowie getting a chance than 4/5 journey men and the best we have fading away into the background again. 

    Warburton himself has said they young players need to see a way into the first team, well so far the young players must be asking what this way is. He's also said if a young player can't see a way forward at Rangers they won't come to us, I know I wouldn't let any boy of mine sign for us as things stand it's a road to nowhere. 

    As Ive said already time will tell if the club are serious about actually coaching our own into good pro's for Rangers or if it's just more sound bite pish that we have had to swallow for years. 

    I agree with most of what you have said.Our development policy has been a joke for years and not just when Ally was there but Walter has to shoulder a lot of the blame as well for he was only to happy to spend and to be honest the majority of supporters didn't care either as long as the team were winning.Unfortunately when your only youth development policy is to let other teams scout,develop,train,take the risks and then go in with the big Rangers cheque book you leave yourself wide open for what eventually happened. I agree on your point about MW saying young players have to see a route to the first team so I will give him time to prove that.It will be interesting to see what he does about a certain individuals contract which is due up soon.This will give us an insight as to where he stands with regards to young players getting a chance or not.

    They run the club, they should be telling the manager he needs to get his finger out when it comes to a return from those millions they spent on Auchenhowie. 

    Instead they let things stay as or even get worse and lauded Ferguson as proof Auchenhowie was a success. While giving the manager millions to spend, instead of that 4th or 5th foreigner coming in season after season maybe the board should've said enough start finding the best we have to offer at home and make them better. 

    Just out of curiosity do you think Auchenhowie has been a success at what it was built for and remember it was never meant to be just a training ground for the first team ? It was actually meant to be a stand alone enterprise that could fund itself with all the talent it was going to produce. 

    I don't think for one minute that Auchenhowie has been anywhere near successful and I would doubt most Rangers fans would think otherwise. As a few of my mates have said in the past,nothing more than a glorified training ground.

    So you think that the current board should not follow in the foot steps of previous boards and not give the manager millions to spend on those 4th and 5th players coming in season after season.So at the same time do you also think that those on here who on a daily basis talk about " needing investment " which I think we all know is give the manager money to spend are barking up the wrong tree as well,after all they are advocating the very thing you have pointed out as failings of previous boards.

  13. 15 minutes ago, Courtyard Bear said:

    Both of them and their boards at the time. 

    What have we to see for all those years, Barry Ferguson, Alan Hutton not sure if McGregor came right through the youth programme. The rest all faded away  

    Thats a terrible return. 

    Just out of curiosity in what way do you think the board/s were to blame for the lack of a proper youth development set up.After all the board/s had spent millions on setting up what was Murray Park but just curious.

  14. 1 minute ago, Courtyard Bear said:

    Because the last lot of managers and boards have failed us badly when it comes to getting young players into the team. 

    That's in the past it's time to get it right, he's half way through his 3 year plan and I don't see many future prospects from Auchenhowie banging on the door. 

    So AM, and Walter did a pish job of it. Wont put PLG in there as not there long enough to make any difference.I take it that's what you are saying.

  15. Just now, Courtyard Bear said:

    He's had 18 months I'm giving him another 18 so that's 3 years. ? You telling me they can't find a 16/17/18 year old just one that could be ready for a starting place at Rangers in 18 months and good enough for Scottish football. 

    He is the one that's saying we need to get the academ working for the club and finding these young lads that can make the step up, I think it's just talk. 

    Time will tell. 

    So one player will be deemed a success then. Fair enough.
