My response to Vanguard and others regarding Ally McCoist

[montana100 335]

Who cares what this VB mob think or say?

[gogzy 31,195]

Despite the backing of some on here (the minority it would seem) McCoist will not cut it as a football manager.

You either have "it" or you don't.

He doesn't have "it".

Sad but true.

never a minority mate. Its about 50-50 and has been for a while now. There are vocal parties on both ends.

As for the rest of your post. Pure opinion so try not to end it with sad but true.

I am not saying stay away, i am saying they won't like the atmosphere, u know loyalist songs, british songs etc etc our heritage and at the end of the day our proddy culture, this will never change

[mason boyne 40]

Can you see Linfield givin a f.k about singin all rangers songs wy add-ons, nope

See if you respond to a thread don't you just post it in that thread... does every response need a separate thread?

What an odd post.

[Edmiston Drive 3,846]

I disagree, why would you spend 5 years as an apprentice to Walter Smith if you are just gonna throw all that out the window and decide on a completely new footballing strategy???? We were all as perplexed with the tactical decisions of both McLeish and Smith made but yet they were successful managers, especially Walter. Ally has had nearly 2 years under circumstances no other manager has ever had to deal with. He may not make it as a manager but how can you say he has had a fair crack of the whip. There are definite problems with the current team but Ally deserves the chance to fix those problems.

so what you are saying that Ally can only try and be like Smith? well that doesn't say much for him bud. Look div 3 what a chance to leave an even greater mark on the club, than by getting the club changed form top to bottom.

Please drop the last two years thing, really last Feb when admin came into the club until Green took over..............what about the efforts prior to this?

WTF

[AlBear. 8,499]

It basically comes down to TRUST.

Do you TRUST Ally will always do his best for Rangers?

Do you TRUST Ally knows the standards and expectations at Rangers better than anyone?

Do you TRUST that if it doesn't come together and we continue to struggle he will know it's time to pass on the reins?

Some on here quite clearly don't TRUST him as the manager, as the legend and as a man.

High on emotive words but the reality is the three attributes are separate entities

[legalbeagle 3,734]

To those who miss the point of the 'Ally, Ally get to.....' game against Dundee. It shows our lack of patience and faith as a support in general. We would have kicked him out that day, and missed out on our greatest goalscorer.

To those who don't think his status and character counts - when did we stop caring about the character of those involved with the club?

To those who want a 'footballing defence' - everyone keeps telling me they are bored of my 'excuses', but I would happily run through it again.

To those who believe Ally-supporters are stupid - get off your arrogant high horse.

To those who think the views are eternal on him staying, this is patently not the case, I have made clear when I think would be a reasonable time to judge him in other posts.

And to everyone else, if you don't value patience and loyalty, then please do not come bleating to me the next time we have a player who wants to leave us for more money, or a better league.

If anyone in the history of this club deserves a second, third, fourth or fifth chance, it is Ally McCoist.

I accept anyone's right to disagree with me, I wish some wouldn't seem to enjoy their desperation to see the back of this legend.

[AlBear. 8,499]

Yeah, and they clearly don't trust him as a man to know what is the right thing to do.

They obviously don't trust him as a manager, that's painfully obvious.

When everything was going against him at the start of his Rangers career he turned it round to become our record goalscorer by miles, why don't people trust he can use that same defiance, determination and resolve to turn this situation around? Because they don't trust the legend.

Maybe you can seperate them I can't.

[CanadianBacon 2,088]

Nae' herm intendet', like, tae' the OP and several others, but.........his playing career and his managerial career have got sweet hee-haw to do with one another.

Alex Ferguson was at best a workmanlike player who left Rangers soon after he "left" Billy McBungle alone at a corner kick in the Scottish Cup Final (I was there). He went on to star ( ) at lesser clubs like Falkirk and Ayr United before stepping into football management via east Stirlingshire, St Mirren, the Sheep and famously, Manchester United where his managerial "legend" status has been created these past 27-years.

He also did a small stint as Scotland manager......but we won't hold that against him.

See what he did there?

Yup....he went to a couple of smaller clubs, learned his trade and moved up the managerial ladder.

McCoist, on the other hand, has been shoehorned into the biggest job in Scottish football.

His first managerial role.

His pal and mentor, Walter Smith, stuck him in deep shit without the aid of a paddle.

He should thank Walter for that one.

The SS McCoist Managerial Career is floundering and is heading for the rocks.

The supporters who backed him and his "don't do walking away" are seeing things for what they are.

The emotional "Ally" rollercoaster we've all been on is about to derail big time.

He should pack his bags, make a nice speech and leave the job once this title is done and dusted.

PS. Just in case anyone mentions "lack of pre-season/playing with a depleted squad/no time to scout/yaddah-yaddah-yaddah".....I'll just say three short words.

The Ramsden Cup.

You really are the gift that keeps on giving, Al.
