Gaffbear 4,101 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 tbh i think Kirk gets a raw deal as all people can see is a player from St Mirren who isnt good enough for Rangers , i think he will do a decent job at centre half the only worrying thing for me is his lack of pace ,he is good in the air and good in the tackle ( don't remember too many complaints when he had mcgayday in his back pocket every OF ) .Broadfoot has had the piss ripped out him by worse players than Paddy Malarky.i remember Scott McDonald turning him like he was a shit rugby playing schoolboy thrown onto playing football cos they were 1 short.The guy has heart and desire and looks like a nice guy.....but Rangers material to take us forward.....sorry Kirk but naw.

thebooler 4,509 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I feel this is an obvious reflection on the road we are headed down now, sadly.Whilst Davie Weir has been a class act for us over the years, I also feel that for a team like the Rangers to be even contemplating him for another year is ludicrous.Broadfoot may come good - I hope so - cos it looks like this will be our standard of player in the near future.Good luck to him.

Orangeclement 572 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 i would much rathr have someone who is settled and accustomed to the SPL rather than a foreigner who will be on double the wages and has no idea about the game up here if im being honest BUT i think he is there as back up to the CB and RB , we still have Perry who is every bit as good as Wilson as well as Webster and Weir , still wouldn't mind big Tulio Tanaka Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Amac9 2,060 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Not exactly thrilled about this news but if it means we don't have to spend money on back up defenders but gives us the chance to spend money on attacking options then it could be good business.

sturtyboy81 0 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 I suppose this is good news for the club. A Rangers man resigning, but as a player Broadfoot is poor. Came to the club as a back up centre half and Walter now thinks he's better off at right back. Makes you think!!!!!!If he's on £10k per week no wonder wee Novo fucked off..

nvager 498 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 A great trier, but limited and rather slow in mind and foot. Defends better than Whittaker, but is like a cab horse going forward. If the whole team drops to his standard we are in big trouble. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Don81 2,846 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Normally does alright when he plays, good back up in the SPL but not the answer in Europe, but then again who in our current squad is good enough for Europe?You could have asked the same question in 2008. We made it to a European final that year as I recall.You are 100% right, it's a testament to the sheer desire and hunger of people like Broadfoot that we made it to Manchester, that and Sir Walters tactics.

Jimfanciesthedude 24,714 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 Eh just cos our youth team aren't great doesn't mean our individual players aren't.Perry has been praised everytime he has played .apart from wilson and fleck, no other youth player has forced himself into contention for the first team, even with kenny mcdowell in our management team we still only have fleck and wilson coming through to the first team this season, mcdowell's record with youths is quite impressive, remember when we didnt manage to fill our subs bench last season away to hamilton, even with a threadbare squad smith still didnt bring any young guys into the team to supplement itI forget how much Broadfoot put into last season....didn't we go on our best run when he was injured??didnt we play absolutely gash when he was injured as well, IMO Perry is a better CH than Kirk and Whitty a better attacking full back than Kirk.....Webster and Weir are better too and if Boogie stays he is also better so where does that leave him?This is my opinion....i just think he's a poor poor player and being my age i've seen some belters.your opinion is fair mate..........................................just think your talking garbage wee joke Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted June 22, 2010 Share Posted June 22, 2010 As long as he's still on low wages I can just about live with him being given another 3 years.I still have nightmares at the thought of him at center back.Scott McDonald at Ibrox and last day of the season against Motherwell when he went into meltdown mode keep coming to mind.Cheap cover at right back. I can handle that. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
