Rab_Rangers 38 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I don't think he should have been given a full 45 mins. We could have through Wylde on for Naismith, put Ortiz on the right and brought Lafferty on laster in the game if need be. You could tell he was nowhere near 100% fit, he was blowin out his arse after 10 mins. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
rangerabroad 2 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 i am not laffertys biggest fan but to be fair he should never have been any where near the park tonight.neither should bocanegra been on from the start this was a managerial fuck up of the highest order which continues on a weekly basisthe fact that mcculloch is an automatic pick is shocking.on sunday if whittaker and mcculloch are anywhere near the park expect more of the same results.2 more losses and ally will be gone along with the most inefectual backroom staff on the planet we are turning into a shambles of a club.

maxiblue 18 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 big Laff should NOT ave been brought on when there where other alternatives,this was a management error,and one in which Ally will learn from(and quickly)we WILL win this game if the players Step Up A nd Play and dont listen to all the gloom merchants in the Mhedia and even closer to home.I know this is a Bears forum and we shouldnt mention those from the dhark side,however they didnt exactly cover themselves in glory against a pub team(at septic pk)that most people have never heard tell of.WATP Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,622 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I know he's just come back from injury and he won't have been match fit but he was back to his usual terribleness tonight. His link up play was a shambles.All of us are hoping he recaptures the form he showed at the end of last season but if he doesn't, we can add him to our long list of useless players, like McCulloch, Healy, Beattie, etc.Your an idiot.

JograBear 1,074 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Lafferty is mince but it was Ally who put him on the park unfit instead of using our talented youth players. Wtf is Murray park for if we don't give our good youth players a chance? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Nicolas Cage 31 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 I think there's been a bit of misinterpretation going on here. I'm not concluding from his cameo tonight that he's just going to be shite again for the rest of his days here. I just fear that we'll be very short up front if Lafferty plays like he did tonight and like how he has played for us for most of his time here. Hopefully he plays like he did towards the end of last season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the sliver fox 1,672 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 I've never been a fan of lafferty, but, I'm not going to start blaming him for last night. He should never have been in the squad for the game, due to him still recovering from injury/trying to find fitness. The blame for last night rests solely with the management team, for team selection and tactics. It's been said a hundred times by plenty of others, but why is McCoist the only person who cant seen that McCulloch and Edu together in the middle doesn't work and Ortiz cant function properly on the left?

Nicolas Cage 31 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 I'm not blaming Lafferty for last night His performances last night reminded me of how poor he can be. However, he wasn't match fit so hopefully when he gets his sharpness back he can play like he did at the end of last season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nicolas Cage 31 Posted August 19, 2011 Author Share Posted August 19, 2011 This thread is embarrassing to this club.How? I don't understand all the furore about this. Lafferty played badly last night. I'm not writing him off or coming to the conclusion that he's an awful player, just that we can't afford him to play like he did last night because we'd be left with only Jelavic as a good striker. Hopefully once he gets match fit he can return to the way he played at the end of last season. It was a strange decision to chuck him on for 45 minutes in such a big game.

Nicika Jelavic 7 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 Offered nothing, but give him some slack he's just back from injury, don't think Jelavic had a good game either tbh. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
GERS82 5 Posted August 19, 2011 Share Posted August 19, 2011 He's just back from injury nowhere near fit , remember it's Ally that put him on he knew he was not ready & it's Naismith that he did not trust to stay on the park Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
