Goldson just fuck off

Goldson 50p heid. That's a sitter. Completely unmarked.

This annoys me like fuck, we refuse to play the "cute" game like every other cunt and we suffer for it. 
Should be targeting that cunt and luring him to make the foul.  We need to play that side of the game or be left behind because every team we play uses those tactics. 

They aren't his players but he's picking the current crop. Refusal to drop Greggs. Arfield out wide. Not identifying weaknesses. Sakala has that defender on toast and we've barely tested him since booking. 
Thought I was being harsh but I really think we may have to make a decision on Gio.

The answers to this are a joke. Only 20% think Bassey has been successful? I know we’re hurting but fuck sake we have some right doom and gloomers here. 
 
The guy was signed for a minimal fee, has developed across two positions and shown plenty of scope for future improvement. He’s also now a sellable asset that will fetch us a sizeable return on the initial investment we made should we decide to cash in. 

Sakala is surprisingly good in the air but he’s not good at holding up the ball, that’s why he doesn’t play central in our system.
The problem I have with Gio and I think Gerrard was the same, is when personnel don’t fit the system they just get played there to keep the system rather than playing to individuals’ strengths and adjusting how we play. It’s why we see hagi and Aribo on the right wing rather than going through the middle, or Roofe being played as a lone striker looking for him to win aerial battles and hold the ball up.
I think Gio has to change the formation. We did well with a back 3 and front 2 against dortmund at ibrox in the second half, so I think he has to go with that on Thursday. If we see kent play through the middle with roofe/itten with Ramsey in behind we might just get something from it. We ideally need to stop crossing the balls into the box unless we are going to start drilling the balls across the face of the goal. We just don’t really have a physical presence in the box without Alfie (unless it’s at set pieces).
Something has to change on Thursday and if I see the same formation with the same sort of lineup as Sunday I’ll be convinced Gio is not the manager to take us forward.
 

I’ve never seen any other Rangers supporter who goes out of their way to try and downplay everything Gerrard did as much as you do
 

There's plenty of blame that needs to be handed out - GvB, the board and the players. 
Ultimately it's Gio's job to get results and we just aren't doing it enough. A great start is the reason he hasn't been chased already. If he can't fix this for next season we will be 10-15 behind by Christmas. 
Today that Starfelt cunt did what he always does and sliced every ball, shanked every pass and constantly fouled. We then left him alone for the rest of the game. I don't get why we aren't identifying weakness and exploiting it. Instead we saw how well they were dealing with shit crosses and thought we'd keep trying that instead.

Of course you have. It's silly to pretend you've not seen a single positive from GVB to suit your narrative. We've looked very good under him in certain games. Hearts, Hibs, Borrusia Dortmund etc.

You can not pick that keeper.
You can tell your defenders not to punt the ball 40 yards and give away possession every fucking time.
You can tell your team after the first 20 crosses into the box didn't work to try doing something else.
You can spot that Aribo and Roofe were having a stinker and substitute them.
You can spot that Rogic had acres of space in the first half and get Lundstram or Jack to close him down.
You can pick your squad to give you some creative options such as young Lowry rather than Diallo who was never getting on the pitch.
That's just off the top of my head and I'm not earning thousands per week as Rangers manager.

Gio doesn't deserve all the blame but neither does he deserve to escape criticism.
It feels like some on here not necessarily yourself mate would rather stick all the blame on the players and give gio a bye.
McGregor for example no gio wasn't at fault for his mistakes. But he didn't drop mcgregor either he kept persisting. Defence sure he can't adjust for defensive errors but he's the one throwing the likes of Bassey and Lundstrum at CB that ended up costing us points as well before today.
It's not all his fault. These players have bottled it before and the board have screwed recruitment badly. But he's not blameless either 
I have concerns now if he is the guy to rebuild and get us back on top. But I'm not expecting a change in the summer.  
I do think but if we start next season poorly under him he'll be under pressure right away, especially if we end the season without a trophy

I’m sick of Goldson, mate. Absolute pretender. Will ping the ball 40 yards cross field against St Johnstone and we’ll forget that he’s scared of defending

Morelos is the only one I would really hate to see go. 

Our manager doesn’t have a philosophy… I have no idea what our team sets out to do when we get on the pitch.

Even with Europe in the equation he should be sacked.

Should have got their manager when we had the chance. 

One of the worst tarrier teams to come to Ibrox btw, they were absolutely pish, but this is what you get what you stand still in the summer after winning the league. 
Absolutely fucked it and we'll need a complete rebuild in the summer. 

Might as well, we've made our bed.

I actually thought Ramsey looked out on his feet. I'd no issue him being replaced.
How the fuck Aribo stayed on for 90 mins is utterly baffling. He caused us more issues than them.
