HG5 11,134 Posted October 29, 2017 Share Posted October 29, 2017 A bad idea that was indulged way longer than it should have been. Murty did in 3 days what Pedro couldn’t achieve in 7 months. Made them look like a team. Still rough edges, but that was a proper team performance yesterday. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Brackley Bluenose 4,479 Posted October 30, 2017 Share Posted October 30, 2017 20 hours ago, gsa said: Many of us were upset about the"loyal servants" attitude well before this whole sorry episode. While none of us know the facts relating to this last couple of months, we do know the following: Miller refused a contract for more money in turkey. Miller played for celtic and ran around beating the badge on his chest. Miller sanctioned his agent to post pathetic nonsense online. To see grown men who have supported Rangers all their lives singing "one Kenny Miller" while the loyal servant points to the Rangers badge on his shirt is utterly embassing. How far we have sunk. Club is a laughing stock. By the way you’re absolutely bang on. Anybody that has been on these boards over the last few weeks and read some of the vitriol directed towards Kenny Miller will know that he has taken it with both barrels. The fact he scores twice on Saturday and he’s suddenly the golden boy with everyone singing his name again is absolutely cringeworthy. Some of our fans are the epitome of fickle at worst and have short memories at best. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You could say the weight was lifted because there was less pressure, given the turmoil at the club not many gave us a chance on Saturday, wait till next away game where a team sits in and we struggle to break them down lol I just think people were and still are too quick to jump on the pedro is shite bandwagon, Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We're closer to them because they've dropped more points than they had this time last season more than anything else, with our form overall we'll still be nowhere near though and we're sitting third not all that far ahead of fourth and fifth either Pedro was an unmitigated disaster of a manager no point pretending otherwise, I stayed positive for longer than I really believed he deserved because ideally we need some stability but it all goes back to him getting the job in the first place Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
