livibear101 248 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 I’m nirmally 1st to criticise Halliday but found myself praising him when he came on today. Docherty was having a shocker of a day in midfield constantly getting caught with the ball. Halliday made a massive difference. jintybear 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Embarrassing how easily pleased some of our fans are now. Who's excited? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The Beast 9,226 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 I'm not his biggest fan but his versatility means that he is a good squad player who can come off the bench to fill a variety of roles. I'd keep him on that basis. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fall guy for many on here, personally I don’t get it, aye he struggled at times last year, playing out of position in a team that was shite. his attitude is correct, he’s happy to wait his time and play when needed, and if he puts in a good performance then that should be all that’s required. We all know he’s not going to nail down a starting slot week in week out but I’d have absolutely no problem with him as a back up, as he would give his all in any position he’s asked to play without moaning about it, and just love the fact he’s playing for our club. falkirkNS, jintybear and The Specky Forum Organiser 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
SweepSweep 18 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Have to say been amazed how little criticism docherty has got up until now, extremely poor any nearly every game. Halliday was excellent today and also against st johnstone, turned defence into attack with one brilliant15 yard pass forward. Would start Halliday before Docherty all day long. falkirkNS 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Superb from him the day. Bang on , Docherty and Ryan jack in the middle of the park dosent bare thinking about , not their fault of course when asked they are going to sign for us , it’s the people who think these lads are good enough Center midfielders to play for Rangers that are to blame Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Looks like we’ve rushed him back to try and get him fit for the game next week. Docherty was poor again as well. I’m not sure if he’s just struggling with the step up, not suited to the role he’s being asked to do, a mix of both. A bit light of options maybe but poor management that’s seen them thrown into the team when neither look ready to be playing every week just now.

MasterD 7,435 Posted April 7, 2018 Share Posted April 7, 2018 Halliday done ok when he came on. The team as a whole improved when Dundee changed shape and they tired. Still wouldn’t keep him beyond the summer though. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

harry handsome 629 Posted April 8, 2018 Share Posted April 8, 2018 Look at the players picked by Murty to sit in in recent weeks i don't think any of them are real holding midfielders. Dorrans was quiet rightly slated for being poor last week and the first half yesterday, push him forward when Halliday and Goss came on and he sprung in to life.

We need 3 in midfield for next week. It's not going to happen. If he refuses to make the obvious change after being so poor for successive games (and the first half yesterday) , sending out Docherty and Dorrans to fail, I don't see a win and a clean sheet with McCrorie in defence changing his mind. Brenda's vanity and arrogance still gives us a chance next week, an indictment in itself. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Actually thought Dorrans was quite decent considering how long he's been out and all this pish about playing Ross in midfield next week when is our best central defender is doing my head in. Halliday is and will never be the quality of player we need if we are to win anything, mediocre squad player at best. MW sold us a bill of goods with some of these long contracts he handed out.

I would cut Dorrans a bit of slack as he has had some tragic family events to deal with. Surprised he actually played last week and yesterday.
