Rowley Birkin 9,029 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 5 minutes ago, RealWorldRich said: Having this before the season is finished is absolutely fucking farcical, honestly, it's a fucking disgrace. We're in the thick of it for 2 more trophies, 5 games to focus on, and the players are being wined and dined and given trophies? This is like awarding man of the match on the 75th minute with score at 1-1. Whatever bright spark decided these award should be in April needs to give their head a wobble. There's plenty of time in June for this kind of thing. in all my days giving these out before the season ends in fact it would be better to go around the world to NARSA etc at the end of the season for these awards Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Loyal72 11,667 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 Would make sense to rebrand these awards to "Player of the season" And do it season on season, with the event scheduled for the night after the very last fixture of the season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Six years at the club, especially in that position, and the majority injury-free is a decent accomplishment that the club recognises. No qualms with that, but RM sure does love to hate.

No qualms with that, but RM sure does love to hate. That doesn't mean it's not time to sell. It is. Injury free is now a barometer for success at us. He’s had 18 attempts at domestic trophies in his time here and won 3. Even if you give them all a pass in Gerrard’s first season just to be kind due to the upheaval, 3 in 15 is laughable. What’s the achievement? Completing Scottish football? There’s players in their team who have double the amount of trophies he has in half the time.

Give me 10 moments from his 6 years and 300 odd games where you watched a game and thought aye Connor Goldson really dug us out a hole there. He really led the team to a vital win. He’s a huge part of the diminished mentality of this club. Happy to compete for trophies, not win them Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Ibroxholm 2,280 Posted April 28 Share Posted April 28 I’m all to well aware of Goldson’s shortcomings in his time with us but, over the piece, he has been one of our more consistent performers. He’s not been in great form of late but it seems over the top to mark him out as the scapegoat in what is, to be honest, a pretty poor Rangers team this season (who have overachieved largely due to the manager). John Greig, one of our greatest players, played for ten seasons without being in a league winning team. By the opinion of some fans today, that would define him as a ‘bottler’ (which he certainly wasn’t). Think I’ll trust John’s opinion on who his award should go to.

He’s a huge part of the diminished mentality of this club. Happy to compete for trophies, not win them I didn't say we should keep him. In fact, I said it's time to sell. We have the best defensive record in the league, yet Vickers gets all the praise. It's not like we just put him into the HOF. it's a small token award. He's getting recognized for his longevity. A wee, polite applause goes a long way. Nothing more. Jamie0202 and Ivybank 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
