Enjoy the rest of your night mate. You're not getting the point. Under ridiculous football contracts most managers when sacked have their contracts paid in full. Le Guen got 1 year settlement instead of his 2 year entitlement and could still claim he did not take a settlement when he left. I'm guessing your links are from the usual Glasgow rags but good to know for future that you think they only speak the truth! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Were you dropped on the head as a baby or something? ... show me the several sources that you claimed said he got a pay-off. Using your logic, the papers said today the Celtic captain is called Scott Brown and the Rangers manager's name is Mark Warburton - how do we know they were telling the truth? did they photocopy their birth certificates? .

I'm having a difference of opinion with you so no need to throw insults. I have no official sources but the people I have heard this from I have no reason to doubt and have strong links with people within the club. You realise we are arguing about who has the moral high ground out of two shite managers? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
cooperman7 13 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 The debate amongst gers on McCoist is a bit like that dress. some see it as white and gold, and others see it as blue and black, and both would be valid perceptions.my opinion of McCoist is this. to be held in the esteem that he was as a player by the fans, to the divisiveness which even just the mention of his name now seems to cause, then you know you've screwed up big time. lets be honest here, if you feel the mistake the person made was big enough and impacted you deeply enough, you may say or even honestly belive that you'll forgive them, but we don't really, not completely anyway, but that's just human nature P:S:had it been Laudrup or Cooper (god rest his soul) that did what McCoist had done, then it would have pissed me off more, on second thoughts, had it been Laudrup or Cooper then it would have caused me great sadness rather than anger, which is a lot worse. then again that probably says more about my feelings towards those 2 greats as players as it relates to McCoist Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He done his job as a striker, they done theirs as a defence and midfield. No striker can score those goals all in his own. He needs assist and service. Mccoist got that in barrels.better than he would have at any other club in scotland. Once he was going through a droubt and missing loads of fucking chances. Rangers made that arsehole. Not the other way around.if you diagree then just answer the question. Could mccostalot have won the golden boot at a lesser club? No Could he have scored as many goals at a lesser club ? No If rangers never had him would they have gotten someone as good? Chances are yes they would. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It didn't work out for him but at least he was honest and a man of integrity. Yup I would argue bazza another so called rangers man was the cause of that.

He missed barrowloads, the scum were on their erse in austerity during much of the period and we could have gotten much better. He was an average striker, playing in a great Rangers period, with great players around him. He just sat everyone else out. You could say out of loyalty, but you could also say, not good enough for teams of similar stature and the gravy train was the best in Britain at the time. His MO suggests he just loved that blue pound. We made him, end of. Wattie's love child. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It's a current interview, in which he's stated he has 'no regrets'. That could refer to finishing 3rd in the second tier of Scottish football, or the financial conduct (or misconduct) of a supposed 'Rangers man'. People are entitled to be angry about it. Particularly as he's now decided to pop-up on the week of our biggest game in years, when he's been silent on major issues since he left.

Does the same rule apply to the late great Davie Cooper, did he only look good playing for Rangers because of the shity opposition players he was up against or are you talking nonsense again?

The No.9 760 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 Why do people always forget when players or managers etc call them self a fan they will never be the same type of fan we are they grew up playing every weekend or away from the fishbowl we all go through every day at school and now work and beyond , I'm not defending him here but obviously his loyalty wouldn't be the same as ours , Walter Smith said some questionable stuff back in 2012 but rarely see a moan? Why two days before an old firm we linger on this shite I'll never know? We're fucking back!!! Time to all be shoulder to shoulder in this as the true loyal fans we are and put the scum to the sword come Saturday. No Surrender Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Heshootshescores 1,905 Posted September 8, 2016 Share Posted September 8, 2016 'The timing' wasnt unfortunate at all. It meant facing the likes of Annan and Alloa, part-timers rather than full-time players. All this with the second biggest budget in the land. Yet incredibly, still he managed to make an arse of it.
