themoodybloo 77 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Horrible game of football and horrible performance, we should be ashamed of this displayOne man sets the team and tactics. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drumloyal 14,967 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Got out of jail. We will never progress as long as we shift and rotate the team to suit Jig. He is past it, and is detrimental to our team these days. I can only hope Ally realises this before too long. Jig, you were and are a hero and a true Ranger; none of us wants to see you erode that reputation.. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
weeneily 1,460 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I'll wear my Rangers shirt with more pride than usual tomorrow when I visit SeaWorld Orlando.We played like shit but thank fuck for the win and I'll put my differences about the management to the side for now.

gmcf 34,202 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 You do realise this team was formed in 2012 and played it's first competitive game in its history 3 months ago ! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
King Jela 20,361 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 meh, it's a win. We looked better in large spells of the second half.Overall a pretty poor game of football though.Agreed. I actually thought the second half was pretty watchable. We certainly deserved it more than them if you had to pick a winner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bris Koyd 50 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Lee McCulloch, Kenny Miller, Kris Boyd, Darren McGregor and Marius Zaliukas all are chosen in favour of younger, more talented and quite frankly, better players in their respective positions Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsons Dog 9,878 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Couple of observationsI think Miller is going to be a big plus for us this seasonBoyd needs to spend more time with the BBFCBell seems to be hoofing the long ball up the pitch far too oftenWe should be building a team around wee Lewis and not shuffling him out wide to suit JigAnd it's time fur bed Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
OzGers 425 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Awful to watch. I understand this is a friendly and it's about fitness and sharpness. So given we have hardly spotted McKay, Murdoch, Clark, I would suggest they aren't going to get anywhere near the first team this season. Ally prefers his ageing pals dispite them being woeful on the pitch Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Wearethepeople72 1,845 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 It was certainly an improvement from the last game, we looked far better playing 4-4-2. Not a great performance but a win nonetheless.We need to get Jig out of midfield though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Blue Atheist 178 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 In the 2nd half Rangers were actually alright. Could have scored three or four goals. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Blue Atheist 178 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I was disappointed with MacLeod. He gave the ball away far too often.. but to be fair he needs a run of games after being out the game for so long. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Carsons Dog 9,878 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 Slept through my alarm so only seen last 5/10 minutes. Seen that we still can't take corners,McCulloch doesn't look good in midfield, and learnt that Hutton is also a striker according to commentery !And the benders are on the jiffy lube Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Misteral 2,932 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 It could've been better but it's about gelling and getting fit and we deservedly won, so let's hope for progress. We should have an attacking starting XI next game, with McKay or Gallagher and Templeton, Miller and Shiels. McLeod and Black CM. Don't know about the back yet. Zaliukas looks a bit dodgy at times, but we'll see. Ally,listen, Big Jig for club captain and and a seat on the bench now and again, Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
EGIL OSTENSTADf 27 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 I was disappointed with MacLeod. He gave the ball away far too often.. but to be fair he needs a run of games after being out the game for so long.he needs to be played in his natural position in the middle an would do if we had a decent manager,,, should be building a side around the wee guy Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

govanboyincalifornia 0 Posted July 20, 2014 Share Posted July 20, 2014 It's great that some bears can take positives from this performance but we have to face up to reality. We need pace and youth and the manager refuses to inject either. His "token " youngster is playing out of position and urgently needs to be installed in CM. We lost to a 4th tier US side and only just beat a 3rd tier team.Earlier today I watched an MLS side (Seattle) draw 3-3 with Spurs in a really good competitive game and they would have destroyed us! The point is that our wage bill would probably equal theirs but interestingly they introduced a lot of young players during the game and their 3rd goal was a result of a great combination between 2 20 year old subs.As a resident of Ventura County I am embarrassed by our performance on Tuesday and have to face the music from my friends who I encouraged to go to the game and see the famous Glasgow Rangers (if it wasn't so hot here I would go into hibernation!)I'm not a laptop loyal or a TV supporter - Rangers have been my team since I was 5 years old - I have been to 2 Cup Winners Cup Finals in Nuremberg Germany and Barcelona Spain followed my team every week for many years but never can I remember being so disillusioned with a manager.I am not an Ally hater and I remember supporting him when he was being booed and jeered in his early days at Ibrox. He was always super Ally to me - goalscorer , great personality , terrific character BUT absolutely USELESS manager.However one thing does bug me about Ally and how he projects himself as being a true blue - he denied us thrice !
