Because he scored against us and looked a decent CF with lots of pace in that game .......so warbs signed him then hardly played him and when he does play him plays him as a winger in games that we struggle to break teams down and there is no space behind the defence to use his main attribute which is his pace ....... MOH is very poor technically and his decision making in certain areas also seems poor..... for me just another player who has not been used correctly by the manager and not used to his main strengths or skills which are not many tbh ......poor signing imo.

The smhellies are clode to signing a young ivory coast international for c. £3m and we are applying 2 sticking plasters to the spine of our team. In summary, King has bluffed his way into the Blue Room - where are we going??? It would be sheer madness to let two of our best players leave this summer because of their age. Sheer madness.

GeeSS 512 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 This is a disgraceful move by Warburton although both players this season so far have been okay if we are to compete with them then we need to improve the squad there is no room for sympathy in football we need to move forward and this move is not going to send out a we mean business marker Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Theulstervolunteer 1,859 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 If they are both still physically fit to do a job for the team then they certainly deserve to be given extensions for another year imo. I'm not one of those who get caught up on the age issue if they are good Enough and fit enough then they deserve their place in the team for me.

Not the first time this has happened for these reasons. Jim Christie from Ayr United and George McLean from St Mirren spring to mind. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
centenarystand 2,229 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 MOH had asked to go out on loan as he wants first team football on a weekly basis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Or that the other battled for every ball and looked the only CB who deserved to play. Whether you like it or not, they both bring bags of experience and know how. I won't excuse King's 'investment' or lack of. But to deny these two of an extension, purely because we haven't spent the money required, is madness.

Rangersfansmediawatch 1,055 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 If O'Halloran goes out on loan i hope either St Johnstone are picking up at least half his wages or looking to buy him back. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeventyTwo 1 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 Can't argue with giving them both new deals, along with Fod been our most consistent players. Not to bothered about Crooks going out on loan, not getting any game time here so may as well send him somewhere he's going to play regularly. MOH going out on loan is a strange one, personally don't think he's good enough for us and not bothered if he leaves but would hope he'd at least go to England or somewhere we can at least get a fee for him. Interested to see who the two loan players could be, hoping it's a CB with pace who can pair up with Hill and a CF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

What a stupid move that would be. If you wouldn't buy a season ticket because the team is poor then batter in, I personally find that ridiculous.

What a stupid move that would be. If you wouldn't buy a season ticket because the team is poor then batter in, I personally find that ridiculous. Firstly, i'll buy my ST for the 35th year in a row but i think others will not. Secondly, you sum it up - a 37 and 38 yr old are our best players. What does that say about the rest of our squad How are we meant to compete with that lot? We should be trying to sign a Cuellar for 2m again - 2/3yrs good service and off to the prem for a good profit. That should be our ambition!!!

RDFM 3,809 Posted January 4, 2017 Share Posted January 4, 2017 If Hill gets another year (Which he should IMO) then he should primarily be a bench player and a guide for the younger players. As for Miller, if he gets another year (Again, he should IMO) then it should be the beginning of him moving into coaching and like Hill he should be used as a guide and example for younger players. EDIT - Thank fuck Crooks is away btw, the human personification of a donkey. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
