RangersMedia 35,962 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I slated him before the game but on yersel big man , that was an incredible performance , moreso given his partner got subbed at HT and he had to play 45 with Cardoso, someone he hasn’t really played next to much Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

sassaaaa 11,406 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Think he's a nightmare but credit where its due he played a blinder today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Docspawn 430 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Superb game, nice to see some good young lads pushing for start. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
born a blue nose 92,769 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Put his head in front of a bus for us today. Won every header Cordoso looked solid when called upon too. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SeparateEntityMyArse 55,399 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I thought he grew as the game wore on and he needed to be strong for us. 3 dreadful clearances and lost Considine for his header off woodwork. But stuck in at it and can be proud of that, especially given he was coming in from nowhere in such a hostile environment. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Skyson1872 2,923 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Bates will captain us to 55 lads Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
WGOH 2,344 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Bates would’ve probably had a better game if he didn’t play in his slippers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
JukeBoxJohn 3,063 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Get the fear any time the ball is at his feet but he was brilliant today so credit where it's due. Looked delighted at the final whistle too so delighted for the lad. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,624 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Never in doubt for me. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
RossS1873 2,686 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I didn't feel 100% and even more so when Wilson went off but he was outstanding. Him and Cardoso were under a lot of pressure and they both handled it incredibly well Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dan Deacon 57,261 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Defended well. A few misplaced passes first half but excellent overall Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
jbm26896 995 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 No nonsense defender Played well today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Laudrup1984 25,100 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I thought he was really good again. He will never ever be a ball playing centre half. Never. However he defends really well IMO. Big, strong, physical, tackles, wins headers. To do it after not playing in a while too was really impressive. Did he play in the 0-3 game last season too?

SammyEnglish 48 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Delighted for Bates. I read some negative comments on here pre-match but thought he was a rock today. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jamie0202 13,095 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Just won the MOTM champagne. Decent game but never MOTM. Tav or McCrorie. Would have been Jack but Collum fucked that for him Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Negri's lovechild 15,391 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 If you're looking for a ball playing cb then he isn't for you, but he is a no frills old fashioned cb that will head brick walls for us. Sometimes that's what we need, especially against teams that go long. Can handle the physical side of things too. He is limited but we could do worse. Well done to the lad today Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Dazzler 2,428 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 He played very well today. Some of the comments about him in the match thread before kick off were a bit off. Well played ginge. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
DariuszAdamczuk 548 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 I thought he done well today, knows his limitations which is good but a bit too nervy on that ball at times for my liking Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
MasterD 7,457 Posted December 3, 2017 Share Posted December 3, 2017 Done what was asked of him. Not an easy position to come into but handled it well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
