We have spent a fortune and haven't even won a league cup. It's disgraceful I don't see how the amount we've spent is relevant to trophies won tbh. If it was simply down to finances, then we shouldn't even be competing with celtic - considering their turnover and wage bill is massive in comparison to ours. People go mental when we don't beat team's like Aberdeen and Hearts because our wages and budget is huge compared to theirs, but also want us to beat celtic to trophies when their budget is huge compared to ours. Weird logic. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Weird logic. Not weird logic at all. We play in a tin pot league with only 1 other team who are on our level. We have got to one cup final since we have been back which is laughable. Folk like to act like we should be happy to be where we are due to 2012. We made a cunt of getting back up too Not winning a trophy this year will just be as poor as every year since we have been back. That will be 2 failures under current management and ultimately doesn't cut it at this club. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

And domestically ,we can surely count the crucial big match victories on both hands . Was thinking .Our records since we climbed back into the big time have been shocking No trophies , 4 to 6 away wins against our hated enemies 1 versus scum , a few, maybe 3 at Sheep land and a few away to Hivs . Loads of draws and defeats Even at home . it's surely only about 4 to 6 big match wins 2 v scum , a few v Sheep and few versus Hivs That for a club the size of Rangers , Is a complete disgrace The one thing, I was used to being a bear of the older generation , my club performing in big matches , more often than not. Under SG , we have the players, the money has been spent . There are just no excuses for it being so poor Rangers no1 will probably correct me Considering where we were 8 years ago and the clusterfuck that Gerrard and his staff inherited after Warburton, Caixinha and Murty it's easy to see how much progress we've made under Gerrard as a team and a club. The man has brought back a lot of respectability for us all, sure he's made mistakes but under his tenure he will, imo, bring back success to the club. This season isn't over so let's see where are in May. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Jones looked good before his injury and as much as i don't like Ojo, him and Jones have both played their part in getting us to the Europa league knockouts.

We signed a handful of wingers at start of season when, according to our assistant manager we don’t play with wingers. any explanation to that? We brought in a goalscoring midfielder from Charlton and decided to play him as a right sided number 10. any explanation to that? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I imagine the plan was to adapt them into a system where they would play as something very close to wingers, requiring all the same attributes as wingers, but technically not wingers. You know as well as I do that we were playing some fantastic stuff the first half of the season, and that our first team is better than theirs. Something has gone wrong this month but there’s still time to fix it. I really don’t think pulling everything apart from top to bottom is helpful at this stage, but I more than understand the frustration. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A number 10 requires almost a completely different set of skills to a winger ffs. Again, everyone can say our team is better than theirs yet they’re sitting with thr first trophy of season and are likely to be 7 points ahead this time tomorrow.

bluenoz 30,943 Posted February 1, 2020 Share Posted February 1, 2020 This year signings in my eyes.. Barker - 2 Hastie - 2 Ojo - 5 Jones - 5 Stewart - 6 Polster - 6.5 Helander - 7 (when fit) Aribo - 7 Kent - 7 (but for the price I expect 8+) Kamberi - TBD I truly believe we will build a team around Hagi and by the summer we will think 5m is a steal when we apply the option. So all in all, not great but not horrific. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
