harry handsome 629 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Im a big picture guy and still believe we need some patience however this can't be allowed to continue. Our showing this season has not improved in any way, looking at the summer signings Clint Hill yes a 37 yr old has been our best signing. We are one dimensional because we play two wingers - bring them in to a xmas tree formation and allow the wingers to pull the defenders about the park, all the opposition need to do is ensure their full backs sit tight, no thinking nothing, sit tight and show us the line. All in all its a dire unacceptable situation we find ourselves in. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ivybank 4,637 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 The scum will remain unbeaten all season,while we drop points most weeks ,so 12 points is small compared to what it will be in the weeks ahead Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

To Be A Ranger 4,032 Posted October 26, 2016 Share Posted October 26, 2016 Won 4/10 with no idea what our best starting 11 are. Trying to play defenders as midfield or forwards. A defence ready to crack at any moment. Unable to change the direction of a game with a tactical substitution. Still a shambles after 10 games. The future isn't exactly bright.

TMB 14,167 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 The title is gone so you should just forget about it this season. The goal now is 2nd spot and hopefully we can mount a more serious challenge next season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Disappointing yes.....a disgrace no. The fact we sit 5th behind Aberdeen, Hearts and St Johnstone with a transfer budget and wage structure which is way above what they could ever hope for.... and a shambles of a team with a system that the management doesnt seem to want to change....thats a disgrace Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
teddybears1872 129 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 The simple fact is the team has been atrocious so far, I was all for warbs ,But as each game go's by, Makes me feel he has to go.

WeirFleckNRothen 1,789 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 It's fucking grim. This season could absolutely not have panned-out any worse, at this stage. Before a ball was kicked, Warburton was the Guardiola of Scottish football, Frank McParland was our messiah, Joey Barton arrived claiming that Scott Brown wasn't in his league, we had signed the England under-19s captain and Leicester's rising striker for free while the #goingfor55 campaign had taken off. We're still in October and we've suffered the biggest Old Firm defeat in 16 years at Parkhead, they've secured a place in the Cup final with a late winner at Hampden, we're 9 behind them, soon to be 12, Barton has been suspended for the past seven weeks, we conceded late to lose at Pittodrie, we've dropped points at home to Hamilton, Ross County & St Johnstone and we don't have a single player who's form is worth talking about. The reality is that we're still miles off them. Last Sunday was 1-0 going on 5-0, let's be honest. This season is gone, that's six-in-a-row for them and at seven, people will sit-up and start taking notice, making references of ten-in-a-row. At that point, they'll start throwing money at their league campaigns because they can. At that point, we'll still be reading about McParland unearthing unfit gems and watching Warburton's 'keepers going one-twos with his centre-halfs. As I said, fucking grim.

A thought last year really did signal the end of the nightmare we have been in for the last couple of years , I was confident we would at least give a decent account of ourselves this year . What has been on display so far has been nothing short of abysmal and worryingly there is no sign of any change inform on the horizon Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JCS 649 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 Firstly, let me say that I never believed for a moment that we would win the league this season or, indeed, put in a realistic challenge for it. I hate all the hype about this so called 'gap'. Celtic are a decidedly average side but, like it or not, they are much better than us. But It's not really about the Scum. I'm much more concerned about the sad fact that we can't beat the likes of Hamilton, Ross County, St Johnstone etc. Let's be brutally honest, we're going to drop a lot more points to the so called lesser sides in the weeks and months to come. What is really depressing is the inescapable fact that the players and management are unable to change it. More depressing still is the obvious fact that we have bought players that clearly can't 'cut it' even at this level. The Scottish premier league is sub-standard rubbish, and is acknowledged as such by most footie fans and pundits. So the probability of finishing mid table really worries me, particularly given that we know there will be no 40/50 million 'bail out'. The boos last night were not only for 2 valuable points dropped, but the fact that we are utterly clueless at present. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Reformation Bear 6,453 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 'More than competitive' is what we were consistently told by Warburton before the season started and in the early part of the season. Then modified recently by Warburton to 'highly competitive'. These were the goals set out by Warburton. King's was a bit less ambitious with his aim of being (just) 'competitive' but inferring that 2nd would do with a minimum of winning a european slot for next season. Right now I don't regard us as being anywhere near a 'more than competitive / highly competitive' state nor even a weaker but still satisfying to King 'competitive' state. Seems to me from results and performances that we are way off track for this season and in the thickets of mid table where the risks are there that we find ourselves struggling to maintain a mid table position by the end of the season. Players brought in are either not there (suspended or long term injured or just never away from the treatement table) or not in the main - Gilks excepted - performing to anywhere near good enough a level. Those that remained from last season look out of their depth. No more of last season's talk from Warburton about having players hungry for success. Seems to me that having decided that aiming for something other than the very top is resulting in a shrug shoulders, explain it away, must learn, must try harder, must train better, must prepare better, must work harder attitude that thinks its ok for these results and performances so long as we are reasonably in contention with the leaders of the chasing pack at the business end of the season. Its what you get when you lower your sights, lower your ambitions, lower your standards.......2nd or 3rd best will do. That, King and Warburton should be well aware, is not (imo) the way for Rangers to be operating. It risks taking us to a level where we become just another team in the league. A position both Walter Smith and McCoist warned against. If it pans out that way this season then it will be even more of a disgrace. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Albertz 78 918 Posted October 27, 2016 Share Posted October 27, 2016 The only silver lining right now is we are not far away from 2nd place which just goes to show how woeful this league is after winning 4 out of 10 games. If we sit around and do nothing at this rate we will finish 40 points behind the nonce this season. Don't care how much more money they have that is totally unacceptable.
