Is this some bullshit they’ve fed themselves about how great the football is they play? Like they’re Barca or something? From snippets I’ve come across it relates to some brand of flowing, adventurous football, where they’re happy to let goals in as long as they score more. Saw one guy a few years back, in who’s own mind a typical sellik score would be a 4-2 win. Possibly all dreamt up as a counterpoint to our reputation as being very strong defensively, e.g. the famous ‘Iron Curtain’ of the post-war years.

Would be great if after we beat them in the old firm he spent the post match press conference talking about how good a football team we are like he did when we thumped Ross County.

TheFamousPigeon 9,352 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 This is all too fantastic Going for some C-List manager and it turns out he can't even come across legally to manage. Not only that, he has to come in to the C-Team too; The Leftovers; (Strachan, Kennedy et al) If we don't have another invincible season and pump these bastards 4 times.... leam_baw and CharlieHamilton 2 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

JackAlex93 12,651 Posted June 4, 2021 Share Posted June 4, 2021 Still can't believe they've not got a new manager in place since Lenny left. Hilarious the way the Eddie Howe deal collapsed and now it seems they may be having some difficulty with this Australian bloke. What a time it is to be a Rangers fan.

Genuine question: Am I that biased that I’ve never noticed this? Or am I right in thinking this is a complete fabrication? Granted I only ever really watch them when we’re playing them or once in a blue moon if they’re playing a team in Europe who is likely going to batter them. They’re the second best team in Scotland so of course they’re going to play free flowing football against the rest of the dross. And, aye, ok there have been OF games where our keepers have won the game for us. But that doesn’t mean they’re some majestic, pure footballing wonders. These people are surely deluded.

It's been around as a concept for quite a while. Whether it's actually true I don't know. There's a quote that does the rounds attributed to Willie Waddell that at Rangers we more prefer strong and powerful players compared to players such as Jimmy Johnstone. During the Smith v Burns years they probably played better football and gave us a run in a few games but it meant fuck all in the scheme of trophies and I know what I'd rather have. But that reversed under Advocaat and O'Neil. My old man always says that he was more excited for Souness coming as a player rather than as a manager because at the time our midfield in the 80s had some excellent footballers like Russell, Bett, Redford, Prytz and Durrant and Ferguson were coming through but they were a bit too soft when they came up against Murdo MacLeod and Roy Aitken.
