Was out last night with a couple of Rangers fans, who congratulated me on our new signings, and the appointment of Warburton. Very complimentary about Wallace, apparently a very forward thinking LB, puts in a great shift every game and is very vocal on the pitch - sounds like what we need.
My son tells me that a lot of non-QPR people on social media seem to think that these are very good signings. I imagine Warburton will make Wallace captain.
Warburton says Wallace is a leader and that is something we've not really had since Shaun Derry and Clint Hill left so I hope he's right because it's something we really need.
Good morning yokels. Aldo has decided to travel all the way from GC to impart his wisdom on to this board of misfits and miscreants. I do so as the Not606 official expert on all things Glasgow Rangers and just an all round top bloke to boot. So listen up Nigel. Liam Kelly. Your new keeper. You have signed an excellent young keeper in this kid. Came through the Rangers youth system and was unlucky to mature just as Rangers have an abundance of very good goalies. He could have stayed at Rangers but decided it was better for him to leave for pastures new and a chance of first team football. To me that shows character. He was excellent all last season. He will, I have no doubt, establish himself as your first choice keeper very quickly. Great signing for you. Lee Wallace. You will be hard pushed to find a Rangers fan who has a bad word to say about this man. A legend at our club. In fact the way he was treated last season was a disgrace. That was down to internal politics though and nothing to do with his footballing ability. This guy is total football. He lives and breathes it. Even when he was being treated so shabbily by the club he still put in the extra to mentor the youth players. In his spare time he runs an amateur football team in Edinburgh, where he was born and bred. Wallace the player is a marauding left wing back who likes nothing better than to get beyond a winger and onto the byeline. He has a sweet left peg and creates and scores goals. He can also defend. Unfortunately he played very little first team football last season so he may take some time to get up to match fitness and it's hard to say whether his legs are still there because he is getting on a bit. He's got the ability though and the desire to be a top player for QPR next season. Wouldn't be surprised if Warbuton throws him the captains arm band tbh. You have, imho, just signed the best left back at Glasgow Rangers on a free. He is a 5 million pound player, easy. Excellent signing, you have a gem of a player. Mark Warburton. He did a decent job for us getting us back up to the premiership up here. He likes to play fast, attacking, expansive football. What's not to like eh? Well Warbs doesn't seem to have a plan B. When plan A isn't working he rigidly sticks to play A. I fear that once opposition managers work out his plan A and combat it accordingly you may find yourselves languishing in mediocrity. In saying that, it's been a number of years since Warburton was in Glasgow so maybe he has changed. I hope so for your sakes. That is all. Good luck in the coming season. WATP.
Thanks for the insight into players & manager, sounds like we done pretty well getting them, all the best for coming season.
What reserves? Kelly was first choice keeper at Livingston and did particularly well considering what was playing around him. Wallace was Rangers captain and by far the best left back at the club. That includes the current Croatian national sides left back. It was politics that kept him out if the team not ability. They will do a job for you, guaranteed.
Thank yo for the insight. Encouraging indeed. Sadly, most of us would settle for 'mediocrity' just now, especially if it was mediocrity a couple, or three, places above the drop zone! Tx again.
Do you mean who do I rate? We have some decent players. Bidwell was and is crap. Smith is ****e aswell.
Having run down his contract at Brentford, Yoann Barbet is now free to sign with any club, and the 26-year-old isn’t expected to be going too far, according to reports in France. According to Nando Chachalana, who is well respected in the Girondins de Bordeaux sphere, the centre-back is currently in London ahead of putting pen to paper on a three-year deal with Queens Park Rangers. Should everything go to plan with the medical, the 26-year-old will then continue his career in the Championship with QPR, who finished the 2018-19 campaign in 19th, eight places behind Brentford. http://sportwitness.co.uk/defender-london-ahead-reported-qpr-move-subject-medical-three-year-deal/ There is a Brentford connection and I wonder is there is any "fire" to this "smoke"?
Wow! If Dave Mc is writing this then it is not "fake news". I admit that I have never heard of him, but it looks interesting. It seems that Warburton has magnetic attractive properties to former players.
