WaltersGotStyle 178 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 The Blue Knights?I did wonder who they were getting at too but I assumed it was directed at Bluepeter9.I think it was aimed more at Spiers to be honest mate. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
showtime69 514 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 just watched the interview,, was impressed with most of his answersthe only one that got to me was the comparison with Ajax,Porto,Benfica and the getting the best youngsters in for 3 or 4 years then selling them on,,, how the hell can we do that without a scouting system in place?i hope this is being looked at so we have a system in place by the time we get back to the top league (hopefully it is if that is Ally's vision for the future)shame Traynor didnt ask about this but all in all i was happy with the managers answers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 McCoist is undoubtedly of the class of Mr Struth,Sir Walter, Big Jock, John Gregg and of our Founding Fathers, a man of true Rangers class and the epitome of what it means to be a Rangers man.

Clemdog 39,389 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 It was better than I imagined, though I still think a few of McCoist's answers were hollow, in regards to :Some of our players being unfit last Season.Skirting past the part-time question by saying it wasn't what it once was.We didn't have two fit strikers, which was a lie on numerous occasions.But to be honest it doesn't make a difference. I've made my feelings clear on McCoist as a Manager in the past and I'll keep them. But to steal his phrase 'the fact of the matter is' McCoist is still the Manager and I can't do anything about that, but support the team. Like I've said before I only ever want him to succeed in this position and he probably does deserve this Season to prove himself.On Traynor, I'm still a bit suspect, was he talking about Spiers when mentioning so called Rangers fans? Or the likes of Paul Murray etc. I've got a feeling that he took this gig just to be a bit of a maverick and take on a few of his 'enemies' that he made in the press over the years. Which is fine truth be told, just as long as he takes them on. Fed up at this 'day of reckoning' shit though, it's all rubbish.All in all, it was tastier than I imagined and I did enjoy it. Just choking for the Season to start Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

WeDontDoWalkingAway1872 303 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 One thing I did notice was that the club have made a youtube account and I'm happy with that! Hopefully more videos to come! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

peter huistra 1,763 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Enjoyed that ! Ally got his ideas across well and showed passion for the job , very pleased with that .Regarding what he said about Little , i think it`s just mind games to make Little try even harder to score goals which he will do !

WaltersGotStyle 178 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I thought Alistair can across really well as always - the man is a born charmer. I do wish he would tidy himself up a little though - he has all the facilities he could ever want at Murray park to get into better shape.

JograBear 1,082 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 More blah blah blah. You can talk as much as you want Ally but if you cant do it on the park.....or even show a glimpse of what your trying to do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
FernandoR20 2,133 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Traynor didn't sound like an employee. He just sounded like an utter prick. Not going to change my opinion of that. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Brian Fantana 28,894 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 happy to see that McCoist is still as passionate, if not more so, about getting the team to standard. I just hope that he can kick on and produce the football required to show that he is his own man and has his own managerial style.IMO though, this season should see the skelping of some of our opposition, i just hope we go on a run of steam rolling teams, especially before we face any SPL opposition in cups.

1st_Jan_1994 4,868 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 Aye the Boca and Goian thing didn't make sense to me. McCoist was saying he thought they were staying because they are two international defenders and wasn't going to sign more center halfs because of this ... yet we actively give them bumper pay offs? he also says we could afford their wagesSo what was it to be? did we want them, or not?

ianb1547 3,776 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 1st Jan...to be fair, he actually said we would have to afford their wages as they were under contract, and if they decided to honour those contracts then there was nothing the club could do. To answer your question about 'did we want them or not' I think you're asking the wrong question. Did they want us or not? is the real issue because if they did...we had to pay their wages...if they didn't...we could then look at a couple of defenders coming in.

Did they want us or not? is the real issue because if they did...we had to pay their wages...if they didn't...we could then look at a couple of defenders coming in.No he didn't he said ... exact words "of course we can afford them, they are contracted"and as for asking the wrong question ... who cares if they wanted to, or not? they are our players. Whatever happened to us making the decisions? it makes no sense either, if a player wanted to go then we would have been under no obligation to give Goian half a million quid. He wants to go, fine - no bung. That's the way it works. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teamgers 1,216 Posted July 4, 2013 Share Posted July 4, 2013 I thought it was a decent interview to be fair, JT at least had the balls to admit that he got it wrong about the club dying, still way too many negative comments in here at times imo.

Calgacus 88 Posted July 5, 2013 Share Posted July 5, 2013 Watched it last night and thought it wasn't bad at all. I must admit that I was concerned when McCoist said he hadn't spent any money - what does he think wages, signing on fees, Agents Commissions etc is?
