I'd like him to tell the fans yes 

People already up in arms about him "talking too much" and then this??  

[Nk89 1,289]

What will it be like amongst the fans towards Beale if we manage to win the next 5 or 6 games? 

My point being the time for wanting rid of the manager has passed for the time being, all we can do is support and hope for a good run & momentum

No different tbh.

It's just a matter of when he drops points or loses a cup tie now.

Of course if we go on a bigger run and win the league Cup then a change may appear.

Btw, seeing that bottom row laid out like that and thinking about what has happened in that time is really, really depressing.

You sort of live thinking that it's just us and them that are challenging for trophies because that's what you've been used to for almost your whole life; but that's just not true now, and it hasn't been for a while. We're not a serious threat to them. We're a club who win a trophy every now and then at best, and there are no signs that that will change anytime soon.

It's really fucking grim.

Could win every game and win the cup before we play them again though right? It's the big games especially against them that everyone has an issue with. Interesting to see what happens if that was the case and we end up losing to them again.

His body language did look a little sheepish. It was always going to be a difficult PC, because people would put a negative slant on it no matter what he said. He identified missed opportunities. The players need to take ownership of that.

Time to say less and do the talking on the park, starting tomorrow.

His strongest team won’t be very strong. There’s been managers that have needed removed before but I’ve never disliked a Rangers manager as much as this cunt. 
Got a job because he said nice things after he left. 
He’s taken us backwards and is absolutely clueless. He’ll be sacked eventually but it’s the lasting damage he’s done that’s fucked us. 
Seen him described as a car salesman - sums him up perfectly

I don't care if we win 5 or 10 or 20 games in a row if he loses the league. It's not about bad results, it's about a complete lack of identity on the pitch, a starting 11 or formation. The players look lost, the fans have no clue and we get fed "xG says we should do better" and "we have the best defensive record in the league". Amazing stats, why on earth are we 4th?

I liked the reference he made to Roofe's "goal"... we need to make sure this doesn't get lost in all the noise around how we are playing and the manager's future.  We were cheated and this needs to be reiterated at every opportunity.

Thats an excuse. That was after half an hour. What's the reason for the rest of that game?

Nope, that’s history, we can’t change it now that it’s happened. If we were having a go at them from the first whistle we’d have scored a few goals and they couldn’t be chopped off even if there is corruption afoot.

Its like people saying if kent had scored against Frankfurt even though replays show the ball crossed the line before roofe crosses it.

The team is badly lacking direction, organisation and leadership both on and off the park. Players don’t know what they are supposed to be doing or don’t agree with it, the manager sets up defensively at home against the worst celtic side you are likely to face this season. We could have had that goal stand and then chucked and still have lost.

Wasnt it them that went with the tagline always cheated never defeated or is that us now?

It might be an excuse but it still needs to be called out or it will keep happening and we'll always be at a disadvantage with "honest" mistakes.

If we were good enough on the day we’d have won regardless of dodgy officials

What if every time we score they disallow it.  How do you win if they won't allow you to?

We can either just accept it and let them keep getting away with it, remain behind them or start fighting back.

That's a shit argument.

People need to get over Roofe’s goal being disallowed. Shoe on the other foot we wouldn’t be complaining about the decision.

We weren’t cheated. We were shite.

Cunts complaining about the team staying overnight in hotels fs.

Be wanting the kit man sacked next so the players can take turns of washing them.

a bit of reality would do them good it'll give them a glimpse into our mundane lives and how we looked forward to seeing Rangers play to give us that little glint of light in our lives and how they are letting us down

Cheated patter is hilarious, wonder if they feel Killie getting a goal took off them so they could take a penalty, which they missed, is cheating.

They are athletes and adequate sleep is vital for a good performance. They should be preparing for the game too. Not stuck on a bus.

 

Not at all,  @McEwan's Lager gave a good explanation of it and I said fair enough. Quite happy to admit when I've lacked common sense and been stupid.

Most managers these days will look at the stats. That’s why teams are so overcoached and almost clinical in there approach to roles and tactics these days.

“Vibes” managers, for want of a better term, are pretty much a thing of the past.

yeah i get that along with nutrition, game time types of exercise for players at different times of recuperation etc but they also understand its more than that and tactics. theres understanding your players who needs a proverbial kick up the arse and etc when to be a pal and when to be the boss 

beale doesnt have that in him its all stats and graphs with him

Beale saying Lawrence is fully fit.  Lawrence saying he isn't. Fucking hell
