superally07 387 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 He left hearts to join us in division 3. It didn't work out for him here but it dosent make me bitter towards him. Actually like to see ex players doing well as long as it's not against us. Another example as Waghorn, didn't work out for him here but I'm not raging when he scores infact I'm pleased for him. He's always the first to congratulate our players on Twitter when they play well. Shows he's not bitter about leaving he realises it just wasn't for him up here. The pressure of playing for Rangers is massive, lots of players just won't be able to make it here. Dosent make them bad people . Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Waggy tried to make a career, tried his best but was not quite good enough. Templeton simply signed a deal and expected the best of the game to come to him.

Apparently if you score against the big bad bears your the player of the month, just the same as if you coach the team that beat the bears your almost a shoe in for manager of the month, pretty baffling but not surprising at all ???

blueretro 704 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 9 hours ago, Spectre said: From what I heard he had persistent injury problems (that much was obvious) throughout his career that no-one could get to the bottom of so he'd be out and recover but come back still made of glass. Apparently in the summer he went to a specialist that highlighted what the actual root cause was and since then he's not had the same problems (He had a broken foot earlier in the season but that was a freak accident rather than the same issue that has dogged his career) Maybe Rossiter should go and see that specialist!

Was looking forward to his performances when he joined but he was quite underwhelming. I dunno what exactly the problem was but it looked a lot of the time like he was lacking in confidence playing for us. From everything you say - looks like poor management could not get the best out of him? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

geronimoo 1,488 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 A player who would never have been a legend but could have been a good player for us, he had the bad luck of playing for Ally (Love the guy and is s a legend of a player, shit manager but) who wasted him.

DariuszAdamczuk 548 Posted December 7, 2017 Share Posted December 7, 2017 I think he had been injured a couple of times on the plastic pitches which could've been coincidence but McCoist was para about letting him play on them. Reading some of the nonsense here would make you think Templeton wanted to leave the club he supports and take a step down in wages for his dream move of playing on Hamilton's plastic pitch. He's a talented player who was unlucky with injuries while he played for us. Sometimes it just doesn't work out, doesn't make him a wage thief or an arsehole. Well done to the lad for digging in and getting his career back on track wish it had worked out for him here but some things aren't meant to be.

Seem to remember him being wrapped in cotton wool everytime we went to Annandale, Aidrie and Montrose etc - due to the plastic pitch. Now he is playing every second week, on what is quite simply the worst pitch of its kind in Scotland. What a total hypocrite and wage their he was/is. Kind Regards, Terry. Your mind is not playing tricks mate. He fucked his knee? Ankle? (So long ago I don't remember) when we were in the 3rd ? division. Never the same for us after that. Real shame... A talent. But .. after that injury, he was shite. Didn't try was my take. A case of our club being FAR too big for him. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tom0411 1,227 Posted December 8, 2017 Share Posted December 8, 2017 I believe he had an injury that for some reason was never diagnosed properly and as a last resort he visited some specialist who found the problem & sorted it. It seems it was a deep rooted tear in his medial ligament and was only spotted when the specialist inserted a camera into his knee. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
