Drunk and disorderly. 14,309 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Some bloke in my section screamed "You're fucking shite!" every single time Fraser Aird got possession against Abroath. He was very loud, very boring and did nothing to help.Aird was having an off day. He needed encouragement not savaged by his support. The "supporter" in my section wasn't the only guilty party, but he was by far the loudest.What happened to developing youth and encouraging them? Is it just more entertaining to crush the confidence of an 18 year old lad?McDowall said "I’ve seen Jon talking to wee Airdy quite a bit and they’ve done a wee bit of work together on crossing and finishing.“They’re starting to get a wee relationship going and that’s important. At the weekend, Jon was telling him to keep going when one or two people were getting on his back a bit.“Fraser is young and it’s difficult for him to handle that at times but that’s when you expect to see your older players in the team look after the younger ones.”http://www.rangers.c...more-than-goalsMaybe some should cut the youngsters some slack. The vast majority of us want youth to flourish, but a minority seem hell bent on slating them. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

legalbeagle 3,734 Posted January 28, 2014 Share Posted January 28, 2014 Because we have always had a good chunk of fans like that. No understanding of young players being in and out of form, or having to learn and develop. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Inigo 32,526 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 There will always be some morons in the support, unable to control their own behaviour or think about what they're doing. Those types aren't capable of shutting their mouths and using their brains for a minute to realise that what they are doing is not good for those young players or the team. In general Rangers fans have always been pretty impatient but some take it too far. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
theblueoysterbar 19,531 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 If you're unhappy with a young player like that, and if you feel like shouting at anyone it should be directed at the manager, not the guy himself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
allgers 735 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Aird is shite though, not developed at all sadlyAird is coming along, like the fact he was always making himself available for a pass, Mohsni was pinging some lovely cross field passes to him in Acres of space, he wasn't making enough of them but that will come.

JCDBigBear 10,805 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Aird is pretty dire in my opinion. I just don't see a player in him at all. It shouldn't be Daly telling him what to do it should be the management team. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
charlesblue 42 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Think Aird can turn good with added strength and a final ball, scary that Rangers starters are younger than me now haha Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thewhitesettler 2,711 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Nobody had the balls to tell him to "SHUT THE FUCK UP" I take it?

DP FC 400 Posted January 29, 2014 Share Posted January 29, 2014 Aird played fine in the first half, other players can make you look bad if they are off form.He was probably moaning about youth not getting its chance, it was clear last year that the boys were getting slaughtered from the stands on occasions, and on here as well.Screaming abuse at any player, yet alone a youngster does not help the team one bit.However, there's 10% in the stands think this is the way to support your team.The definition of a supporter is-a champion, a backer, admirer or friend, that behaviour seems at odds with these definitions.Well there is one other type of supporter, a jockstrap so maybe he is a supporter after all, and not just a crab bit twat.
