cushynumber 25,178 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Thats the legacy that Mark Warburton and David Weir have left as they slink out of Scotland back to their homes down south: A stubborn (or lazy) disregard for the opposition Schoolboy tactics and team formation A team that cant defend - and when asked to do so are almost comic to watch A forward line that cant score A midfield that gets pushed off the ball at will and seem unable to put in a tackle of consequence. A team that are an abject failure away from home A team that were lucky to beat Morton at Ibrox You didnt send the fans home happy Mark - you jumped before you were pushed as it dawned on you that your playground formation and painting by numbers fantasy football had been found out by your own supporters and by run of the mill teams that were no more than organised. In fact, any decent team hammered you. You always gave the impression you viewed Rangers as a stepping stone to bigger and better things - thats your prerogative. However, you have failed - and this will be as good as it ever gets. and David Weir - shame on you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Thats when you start to batten down the hatches and dig out points. Does that sound like a MW team?

If only he'd had the foresight to do it, many of those 1 points could have been 3's and we wouldn't be in this shitey situation.

I reckon he'd be in for Foderingham and maybe Barrie McKay but that's probably it. Although he does seem to have a blindspot for Kiernan so maybe he could take him off our hands...

The annoying thing is, the opposition would never have to study us either because it was the same every game. Sit in, hit us on the break and take advantage of set pieces. MW's at the press conferences giving it all the "we don't worry about what anyone else is doing, it's all about us" patter, meanwhile the opposition manager is rubbing his hands.

Drum 160 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 W&W are just feeding off each other with a goal of becoming wealthy. As the OP says, making money by numbers. Rangers players, coaches and managers need to be there because they want to be the best. If we identify a manager with this mindset (we should concern ourselves less with big names) our Club will transform overnight. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
STEPPS BOY 74,167 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 We are An absolute mess. Four transfer windows in and not a Centre half of note, a CDM or a prolific striker. Three of the most important positions on the pitch. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Still convinced too many of them are properly shit for a change of formation to do much good, but worth a try. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A very good description of the impression he gave me a lot of the time. Even worse than not studying an opposition at all is the probability that he never gave our own players any specific instructions or criticisms either.

ianferguson 2,619 Posted February 12, 2017 Share Posted February 12, 2017 Warburton will get one more chance down south and I'd bet my mortgage it's his last. Pretty football with no cutting edge or solid defence will only get you one thing, failure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
