If not, then I couldn't particularly care less if people don't like me writing for them. gj923, delamonty, Spiderpig and 15 others 18 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 53,241 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Rangers should turn to the Under-20s instead of continuing with 'impostors' who seem more interested in retweets than trophies Our Ibrox blogger has backed Pedro Caixinha but insists the new manager in turn needs backed by Dave King. BYJAMES BLACK 14:38, 3 MAY 2017 James has been angered by Rangers’ performances this season Get Daily updates directly to yourinbox + Subscribe On the back of Rangers’ worst home Old Firm defeat since Queen Victoria was on the throne there are some real doubts about the board's plans to take the club forward and challenge Celtic for the title. With Brendan Rodgers' side miles ahead of us, Aberdeen almost certainly finishing second in the league and St Johnstone breathing down our neck for the final Europa League place, there is now a real concern amongst supporters that the club are heading for long-term mediocrity; just as season ticket renewals get under way and the board expect hard-working fans to shell out hundreds of pounds.

Caixinha needs backed in the window (Photo: SNS) The appointment of Pedro Caixinha(arguably one of the few positives of King's reign) should be one that helps the team improve and, despite the negativity surrounding it in Scotland, everyone I've spoken to who followed him at Santos Laguna believe he has the ability to be a title-winning manager at Ibrox.

Burt has impressed James in the Under-20s Some of the criticism of the Portuguese has been completely over the top and, despite the two results against Celtic, it's unfair to judge the manager after eight weeks or so in the job.

Give the manager some time to get his feet under the table, implement his playing style and bring in his own players and then judge what he can do.

Popular Post PRW. 5,631 Posted May 3, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2017 Nice one. Already said it but good luck to you, we need more Rangers men in positions like this. Sitting back and letting the tarriers run the media, councils and governments is not the way to go.

Smell the hotdog 4,015 Posted May 3, 2017 Share Posted May 3, 2017 Interesting to see if they are so forth coming with allowing you to write pro Rangers stories? I know this piece at aimed at King and everything you've said about him is true however it's still a negative story for Rangers as a whole. Guess only time will tell...

Popular Post K.A.I 36,183 Posted May 3, 2017 Popular Post Share Posted May 3, 2017 Knew you were upto something ... Concentrating and talking a power of pish regarding the under 20's to create a little niche for yourself. Slagging off the Royal Family, protestants etc comparing them to Nazi's, child abuse etc when people were talking about Catholics and the Tiffany song ...thus fitting the Record profile to perfection and making sure no stones unturned where they're concerned. Last week I called it and said your another potential trough guzzler in the making - I was right. Daily Record ffs. Maybe you'll get to meet Barry Ferguson and talk about your contributions to the Record. That said you've still got to be better than that McFarlane cunt ... but maybe not. I'm sure you share a lot of his views. Johnny Dangerously, Bad Robot, dougie76 and 10 others 13 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
