Apologies if it wasn't you sounds like something I would say. I said something about his shoulders and being like a wee track and field athlete or short putter. Although I did get told once before Rangers vs Livorno at a bar outside the tower of Pisa when the looky looky men were over annoying us, that, you can tell where about's in Africa someone is from from the shape of their heed. I still don't know to this day if it's a windup. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

There is such a thing as forensic skull identification - where you can identify what race a dead person is when you find a body - for example when cops on cold cases reconstruct faces based on the skull found for sketches to find out who people are. But that sounds suspiciously like some kind of crackpot 19th century racist theory around measuring skulls for intelligence and other pseudoscience.

Carling1873 1,401 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Nice sentiment from Greg and I wish him all the best in his career away from us. He will always be able to reflect that he played for the club he loves, something I and most of our support will never do but it also dose not deminish our love for the same club. Will happily welcome him back as a supporter in the stands as the feeling I get watching The Rangers is second too none. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Bristol loyal 6,248 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 Good luck to him, always gave 100% whenever I’ve seen him but was never quite good enough. Out of interest did we get a fee for him? Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

East Enclosure Row N 2,799 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 I don't think he was given a fair chance. We have had successive managers who played their favourites regardless of performance. Windass, Goldson and Tav were all typical examples of this.

Coop 654 Posted August 20, 2020 Share Posted August 20, 2020 3 hours ago, 2nd Flute said: We will soon have a team with no Scottish players in it, no Rangers fans, this team have already proven they have the heart of a mouse, worried. That's a failure of the management to blood some of the youth players. It's little wonder many will be looking for opportunities elsewhere. It's not easy to build a decent team from Scottish players these days when you're reliant on players other teams produce. We used to sign some belters from clubs like Clydebank (Cooper) but it's hard to imagine getting anything decent from that level these days. The SPFL is rammed full of ordinary Scottish journeymen and one or two players who may have the potential to make the step up. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Cedrick 8,048 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Fair play to him like many still at the club it’s not his fault he was signed , in that time of need somebody thought i know what will change our fortune sign that Hamilton midfielder, baffling Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

bluebell82 236 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 Never really got a fair chance imo, should go on to have a decent career. I live near Hull, and go to the odd game,so will be looking forward to seeing how he progresses. If Gerrard wins us the title no one will give the decision to let Docherty go a second thought , however if we don't win the title everyone will scrutinise every decision Gerrard has made (including this one).

southcoastbear 1,639 Posted August 21, 2020 Share Posted August 21, 2020 How Barker got games over this wee man is a mystery , can only put it down to Barker being one of Gerrard's choices. Lad will go on to have a decent career . Sad to see him go but was never going to get his chance after we signed Hagi. All the best to you Greg and I'm sure many bears will be keeping an eye out for how your doing at Hull. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
