stonedandhappy 0 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 First off I know that a few of you may be thinking "taig" because I'm not a regular poster on here but a few may know me from followfollow and I assure you that I'm not.Anyway, back to my reason for starting this thread.Is it possible that Ally has lost the dressing room?My reasons for thinking this are that we have so many stars under performing at the moment. That coupled with his decisions to play his mates out of position just to find them a place in the team and his refusal to play certain players who would fit into certain positions better than Ally's current crop of favourites.Most on this board would agree with me that on occasions, Ally's selection and tactics have been questionable. If we are seeing it the surely the players must be seeing it too. And remember a lot of the current squad I don't want this to turn into an Ally bashing thread but even a blind man can see that there is just something that isn't right with The Rangers at the moment and I thought I'd throw something in there that I haven't seen discussed yet.

stonedandhappy 0 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 He's lost the plot.With his tactics and team selection of late I have to agree but I did say that I didn't want this to turn into an Ally bashing thread.It's a serious question. Do we think he has lost the dressing room? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 He needs to accept there is a serious problem with us at the moment and stop his cringe worthy interviews saying how fine we areNo fire in his belly at all Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MCLACHLAN1 49 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 If i am one of McMillan, McKay, Bendiksen and co. at some point I would be questioning what the fcuk is going on when the same Clowns McCulloch, Whittaker and co. are played and no matter how bad they are are never dropped..Its a farce.

gunslinger 270 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 how do you motivate players with for sale tags round their wrist. its no coincidence we have lost form approaching Jan and no coincidence who's performing worst. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DougieRFC 36 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Put it this way, if i was McKay, Bedoya or Bendiksen, and i saw that the manager would rather play Lee McCulloch, Maurice Edu or even fuckin Sasa Papac, a centre half, in front of me in my natural position, i would be getting pretty pissed off and would start losing respect for him. That surely affects all the players in the dressing room. Stop playin folk you're friendly with and give other players a chance Ally! before it costs you your job!

Stop playin folk you're friendly with and give other players a chance Ally! before it costs you your job!This is pretty much what I was thinking although slightly different.Guys like Davis, Jelavic and co must be thinking "why the fuck should I even bother trying when the boss can't pick the best team available to him and decides to play his mates instead".

I know I would be pissed off playing that shite and want to get the fuck out. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 What do you expect a football manager to say about his team ?Maybe accept the fact we're not fine and tell the fans he's on the case? We need to just sit and hope he's doing something about it at the moment, but for all we know he could be doing everything the same way and we'll shoot further down Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stonedandhappy 0 Posted December 31, 2011 Author Share Posted December 31, 2011 And that must be on the players minds too. They must be thinking, how the bell can he think everything is fine when it clearly isn't. Maybe its time for clear the air talks like we had 2 years ago around this time of the year. It worked back then. But Ally, if you're reading this, do it soon before we lose any more players please. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Craigie79 67 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 No and i think a lot of people are going to look a bit foolish when we win our next 8 league games, which takes us up to our next traditional tricky fixture at Tannadice.WATP Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Ally_McCoist_Tim_Skelper 9 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 What do you expect a football manager to say about his team ?ermm.....even rookie managers have slated their players in the past and it turns out to be a masterstroke as they go on a run. Real managers admit their team are playing shite. But McCoist thinks by saying ''to be honest'' when flying into a lie about how fantastic the players are is ...convinving everyone. Walter Smith once played 6 defenders at Ibrox in an old firm game and left McCoist on the bench..... the irony. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Craigie79 67 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 based on what?Based on us being Rangers!If you told a tim that they would go on a long winning run(8/9 games?) a couple of months ago you would have got the same reaction from them.

minstral 5,375 Posted December 31, 2011 Share Posted December 31, 2011 Would say that the days of players walking over broken glass to play for our club has gone. Where we all dream of getting they chance to play for our club, most of the players are only interested in money, and just go through the motions and still get their wages.
