    Amato reacted to Bakbear in End Defoe and Davis loans now?   
    Us in talks with Davis for a permanent deal is the worst news of the whole weekend. 
    He has made zero impact on loan and he is only going to deteriorate. 
    We need forward thinking for next year.

    Unless Southampton and Bouremouth are willing to terminate them early then we'll still be on the hook for their wages. Given we're in talks with Davis over a permanent deal then I'd say there's absolutely no chance of ending his deal early only to sign him permanently in 12 weeks.

    It just goes to show how disgusting it was that there was a completely unprovoked banner aimed at his mother, who raised a family in poverty and lost a daughter. But aye, we're the bad guys of Scotland.

    Amato reacted to D'Artagnan in With "friends" such as these...   
    There was a considerable blip in the anti-Alfredo Morelos narrative currently being driven by sections of the media in Scotland. Sadly, the predictable one-way traffic was not brought to a sudden halt by an ex Rangers player speaking out, no, Barry Ferguson and Lee McCulloch were too busy acquiescing and adding to that negative narrative with criticism of their own.
    In a week which showed Kirk Broadfoot raking his studs down Alfredo’s Achilles heel, you might have thought the onslaught would abate for a few days – but alas, this is Scotland we are talking about.
    Instead it was left to Chris Jack of the Evening Times to write an article,
     
    https://www.eveningtimes.co.uk/sport/17510914.how-alfredo-morelos-has-gone-from-medellin-to-Rangers-multi-million-pound-man/
     
    not only defending Alfredo, but in addition, humanising this young man so many have sought to dehumanise with comments such as “buffalo brains “and relating his upbringing to something from the Narcos Netflix series.
    Jack highlights a young man brought up in extreme poverty, who has never forgotten his roots, who remains respectful to his parents and the country of his birth, and for whom the lessons learned from such a harsh upbringing remain a driver towards success. Perhaps in any other country such a young man would be seen as a positive role model rather than the devil incarnate.
    But the comments of Ferguson and McCulloch really rankle – their adding to the anti-Morelos narrative serve to give it a sense of normality, when in fact it is anything but normal – it is  in fact, abnormal. And no amount of ex Rangers players selling themselves to the highest bidder should allow us to lose sight of this fact. It has been a concerted campaign to demonise our prize asset and the likes of Ferguson and McCulloch, with their strong Rangers antecedents, adding their weight to the millstone being placed round Alfredo’s neck serve to give this concerted campaign a sense of credibility.
    Ferguson and McCulloch are by no means the worst, Kris Boyd demonstrating his ability to adapt to the anti-Rangers agenda with considerable aplomb following a series of articles and comments criticising his former club. His lack of consistency in his arguments demonstrate Boyd realises which side of the bread requires to be buttered to ensure a favourable return.
    You make your bed and you lie in it. I hope we as fans and in particular RSC’s will remember those who have served the dirty pieces of silver some sections of the media will pay in order to provide a sense of balance and credibility to that which is unbalanced and lacks credibility. Hopefully the club itself will add some solidarity when the same individuals go begging for tickets.
    “To be a Ranger is to sense the sacred trust of upholding all that such a name means in this shrine of football. They must be true in their conception of what the Ibrox tradition seeks from them. No true Ranger has ever failed in the tradition set him.

    Good to see Barisic getting capped again for Croatia and doing well. 
    Now that he's injury free I fully expect him to establish himself as our first choice LB. Think he'll do well next season.

    At the time Gerrard certainly wasn’t my choice, I wanted Bielsa, he was sitting in the house at the time. 
    However I think Gerrard will win trophies here. 
    This rinse and repeat nonsense won’t ever work. We need continuity and build on what we have and what we’ve done this season. We’ve improved but we need big improvements now and with that comes cash

    Amato reacted to RangersMedia in Gerrard : Post Match Reaction   
    People are going to slate Gerrard but tbh what did he do wrong tonight? 
    It's a shite result so he's going to cop some flak but what else would you have done different? Played McCrorie? Instead of who? Kamara has been one of our better players the last 2 games. Played Katic? Worrall has been excellent recently and I don't even like the guy. Played Halliday? We saw in the last game why we needed Barisic back in. Dropped Morelos? The majority of this board wanted Morelos to start 
    He's the manager so the buck stops with him but the players are consistently letting him down now and he has no alternatives at this stage of the season. If Candeias plays a simple 10 yard pass to Morelos or Kent and we equalise it's a different story. Kamara doesn't play McGinn in and it's a different story. Arfield doesn't scuff his shot straight into a defender from 15 yards out and it's a different story
    Gerrard will carry the can for this if this bullshit continues into next season but I'm not going to throw him under the bus yet.

    bizarrely the highlights on the bbc website have a slowed down, double angle shot of the morelos penalty/booking.
    The defender had his arm wrapped round Morelos's neck. I doubt any striker would not have sought a penalty. and I am also sure that most would have received a penalty
