    Great article from fellow church goer and bead rattler Paul McConville.

    http://scotslawthoughts.wordpress.com/2013/03/24/why-are-rangers-performing-poorly-mr-mccoist-blames-lack-of-resources-irony-is-dead/

    Anyway – what did Mr McCoist have to say?

    “I told you at the start of the season that we needed players.

    “I’m not going to change my tune on that. We had seven or eight players out. I’ll probably go down in history as the only Rangers manager who has struggled to fill a bench. That’s where the club is at the moment.

    “We spent Friday morning looking at our youth players – not because they deserved an opportunity, but because we needed to fill a jersey. I’m not sure too many Rangers managers have had that problem, but that’s where we are. We just have to get over that line. We have to win the title and get a team that will win the next title.”

    “There was the option of putting Lee McCulloch on attack but he has made the defence a lot more solid in recent weeks. If I can take a positive, we’ve had a couple of clean sheets in the last two weeks, but in terms of making chances and taking them we are miles short.”

    Mr McCoist’s team is playing in SFL3. The SFL has rules about how many players over 21 that can be registered. Rangers have, as far as I am aware, a full complement. The fact that they had a number of players unavailable is something that happens, and of course one of those players is suspended by the club.

    The official Rangers website states that the Rangers starting 11 had seven players aged 22 or younger.

    Guess what the make-up of the Stirling Albion team was?

    Five players aged over 23.

    One 23 year old.

    Five players under 23.

    Their bench included a 21 year old, an 18 year old and a 17 year old.

    Way to build up the boys confidence ally. He really is clueless, hope he stays for a long time.

    I'd even agree to letting them into the SPL next season, provided they keep him for the next 10 years <whistle>

    Ohhhh yes there is.

    He's managed, as Eric pointed out, to burst the youths' bubble.

    Great for team morale that.

    But then again, that could come under being a **** manager or just general douche bag.
