ChicagoBear 0 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I'd disagree with that whole heartedly, even though I rate Alexander highly too. But that's another thread buddy Thats it, my opinion is that I feel 100% more confident that Alexander wont have a "Boruc" moment when he's between the sticks. I'd also go as far to say that we should have sold McGregor when his stock was high because now we will get a pittance compared to a year or so ago.

J_RFC87 761 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I think there must be more to this, a fine or something, but its an extreme punishment I think the management have been looking for an excuse to put them both on the transfer list and drop them, and both of them played right into their hands.

Columbo 588 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Captain Barry Ferguson and goalkeeper Allan McGregor have been sent home from training by Rangers after their breach of discipline while with Scotland. The Glasgow club have confirmed that a statement will be made by manager Walter Smith on Friday. Ferguson and McGregor were dropped to the bench for Wednesday's World Cup qualifier against Iceland. The pair had been involved in a drinking session at the team hotel after Saturday's defeat by Netherlands. BBC Sport Article This is about time. Ferguson has been shite all season and I would love to now see Edu or Davis in centre midfield. As for McGregor he's more valuable than Barry but Alexander is a more than able deputy and if we can get £7 million for the pair in the summer I'd gladly take it.

david246 0 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 i for one disagree with what has been down here.They were on Scotland business and the manager sanctioned them to drink which they duly did all this is venom directed at our captain as he has not had a great season but its not entirely his fault he has been injured and been taking pain killing injections to play.i also dont believe the crap that he thinks hes bigger than the club what a load of pish.As for Mcgregor hes not had a bad season but yes on the front pages more than on the back which isnt good and i also think alexander deserves his chance but under no circumstances should the 2 of them be suspened.And the nonsense on here is just ammo for the tims who are revelling in all this No Surrender Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

papaguy51 912 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 I can't believe that people are letting there dislike of an individual cloud this issue This is at best a risky decision and at worst could cost us points in the league. I will wait and see what the reasons are behind this and how the team react before i break out the bunting and start the kind is dead speaches..... This decision could decide the league, lets hope it's in our favour The 2 of them don't deserve to be in a Rangers shirt. Walter now knows this and booted them out the team. Ferguson in particular has been utter woeful for so long. And it also means half of the motley crew are out of Ibrox which can only be good for us. I honestly believe this decision could be 1 that ultimately gives the players the kick up the arse they need to win back this league. Good on yersel' Walter why doesnt McGregor deserve to play for Rangers ? come on please tell me ? Because he is a complete fud. When i saw him laughing like a fucking schoolboy at Kai Johansson's minute silence at Ibrox it told me everything i need to know about this waster. And TBH , he is no better than Neil Alexander in goals anyway. Is that good enough for you? " " And how long ago did that happen ? about 2-3 seasons ago ? did you still think he was a waster when he was outstandig in Bremen ? or when he had Injured himself at the piggery then got upto to save the spot kick ? You really must have no basic knowledge of the game........ I dont see many premiership clubs being linked with bids upwards of £6 Million for Alexander So we judge players' ability on who the back pages of the Sun link them with?

yellowcross 5 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Hats off to you guys for standing up to these two fools and let that be a lesson to anyone else in the dressing room who thinks they can treat our club and fans with disrespect. Everyone knows that Ferguson has too big an influence in the dressing room and constantly undermines the club and McGregor is on the front pages more than he is on the back pages of the papers. You might get away with that if you are playing well but he has been pish this year. I actually think that we have a better chance of winning the league without them both. I feel the same way.

MosesMcNeil 1,664 Posted April 3, 2009 Share Posted April 3, 2009 Barry Ferguson just found out that disrespecting his role as captain of The Rangers results in a similar response from both Walter Smith and PLG.

Typo? It's a subjective arguement. It's like saying McGregor would have made the penalty saves in the Scottish Cup and UEFA Cup semis. It's like saying McGregor would have made the saves against Fiorentina in both legs. Maybe he would, maybe he wouldn't. We can't possibly know. What we do know is Alexander has never let us down, both in the UEFA Cup run, the league and the scottish cups. What we do know is that McGregor has let us down, on a fairly regular basis either in the papers or on the pitch this season. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nah mate, I'm just kidding on. I think McGregor is probably just the better of the two, but we're in the good position of being blessed with two talented players for that position. As Badger says, I'm feeling really positive about Rangers for the first time in a while because I've been proven 100% wrong about our management.
