You can spin a web of half truths and push if you want. Anyone with half a brain can put the last 4 years and context and circumstance and properly evaluate... McCoist the player is peerless; McCoist held Rangers history and reputation together when others were for giving it up; McCoist the manager was below average.

Don't expect to agree Legal as I think that would be a first I don't think we have to think about excusing anybody. Coop did join that team, he didn't join back in '74. as far as I am concerned I would change nothing about their careers with us and the decisions they made, I am just glad I was able to watch them both, maybe if either had joined earlier it wouldn't have worked out the way it did, so I would leave it all happily alone. People trying to score stupid points over decisions a guy made 35 years ago just because they don't like him just piss me off. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

eejay the dj 31,964 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Think I left this message earlier .Think it's time we just let this one slide .We can't do anything to change Ally or what he does on the future .For me the one thing that is still creates a worrying divide amongst us .

But Then I have more than half a brain. If you fail to see the overall contribution of the man from breaking all sorts of records as a player, to the glue holding us together in 2012, the man who galvanised us back then, the man who prevented the robbing of trophies, prevented a stain on our history, the man who stopped us from admitting to the world that we accepted that we were cheats...all because he lingered too long in a job he wasn't very good at and got paid a bit too much for. If "you won't side with anything that man contributed" to our club then you're just a clueless dick. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Do one ya rocket........ Explain what's pish? Which bit? I'm honestly really interested in which bits I've written that makes you say that. Rather than just call it "gullible" or say "you must be related" try telling me which bit about his playing career or the bit about saving our history is "pish".

BigAmo'sThighs 848 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Wish him all the best and hope he proves me wrong. But as a gaffer, totally not cut out for any gig I'm afraid. Will always be Super Ally to me though. Despite him being my biggest and fucking worst gripe watching us these last few years I can forgot that and move on. It was some of the most turgid shit I've seen. Fuck it, the good outweighs the bad Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
worcesterloyal 114 Posted June 5, 2016 Share Posted June 5, 2016 Many ex players have tried and not cut it as a manager, but you can't blame them for trying ,wouldn't we all,and I will never forget his efforts in our darkest days........And how many times I sang Super Ally as he won us so much........leave the man alone we are back and thats it Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Cooper played for Clydebank, was spoken about in relation to Rangers, roasted Greig one night at Ibrox and signed IIRC shortly afterwards. Not sure of your point? Edit just read some of your follow up comments, lots of media speculation at the time over Cooper turning us down. Same happened with Fergus (Ian) and he clearly refuted that suggestion.
