Yes, he does.

Rangers FC is a shambles just now. Is it a temporary blip? Well, no 'cos we've been ****e for years and no vision or hope of improving.

I think he's over reacting a wee bit.

The fitba is ****e but it doesn't have to be anything better at the moment. The division is won and the road to recovery has started.

The crux of it, I think, will be next season. Canny see the fans being as forgiving and supportive if the ****e continues.
 
I don't think he's overreacting. This is a culmination of years of pent up frustration. We've got the 2nd highest wage bill in Scotland and the brickies and plasterers are looking fitter and more eager than our £5/£10k a week stars.

We have an opportunity to instil a proper footballing structure at Muzza Park and we're not taking the chances. Soon we'll be back to the SPL/Top league and it will be business as usual, as long as we beat Celtic then everything is fine. Boring as ****.
 
I don't think the players we have are actually all that bad (At least individually), but the team play has been atrocious at times and our defence is a ****ing joke. Should we be playing better against the teams we are up against? no doubt about it, but players like Cribari and Argyriou are terrible and they are letting the team down constantly. We can only hope McCoist has learned his lesson from buying them.

Sacking McCoist will do nothing for us, especially since it was probably down to him some of the oldco players stayed.

In my mind I really don't care how we get promoted, just as long as its 3 straight promotions with no ****ing about.
 
gambol needs to sit through 90 mins at Ibrox sober me thinks

I wouldn't wish that on anyone.

Our standard of football is howling, it would be forgiven if we were trying something different and overhauling our whole approach to the game, but we're not.

Same old shite habits with a handful of good performances chucked in, mainly reliant on certain players having stormers.

Not good enough, we had a blank canvas to go on with Alexander, Wallace & McCulloch as senior pros to set an example to the rest.

Cole, Hegarty, MacLeod, Hutton, McKay, Crawford Naismith, Little & Hemmings all capable of forming part of a foundation to take us forward but they're being coached the wrong way and the attitude of some of them is poor. They'll find themselves seeing out their careers with Dumbarton when we're back at the top if they don't dig in now.

Signings have been poor as well. Black, Sandaza, Cribari, Kyle and Argyriou have all flopped badly and should be punted soon as possible. Shiels only just got pass marks along with Templeton.

I'm actually dreading our illegal tranfer embargo expiring. God knows what pish we'll sign in the January window. Probably Gary Teale and Colin Hendry.
 
The standard of football this season has been pretty dire. Okay we have had to start from scratch in some ways, but you would think that they would be able to get it together by now.

I would agree with Frank about the blank canvas stuff. That's the way I was looking at it too. I genuinely thought we could do something new, but like Edge says it's the same old same old. Why are we not passing it about more. We should be playing these teams off the park.

Okay Coisty's had a hard time and some of the signings have been a real let down. He had no pre-season to speak about and had to sign a lot of guys at the last minute. The team should have gelled by now though it's bleeding seven months later. I am not calling for Ally's head here, but the buck stops with him. I've said on here a few times that I believe he will quit if he feels he's harming the club. I do feel sorry for him, but it's painful to watch at times.

Regarding Edgar's article Green quotes Walter saying we got booed off during the nine in a row years. They did I can remember it particularly during the latter years when a lot of folk began to find the style of football played extremely boring. The fans have been incredibly patient this season. It's a hard one to call, do we really want to go back to the days when our youngsters were blasted by the support for every mistake they made in particular the Scottish ones? Remember Maurice Ross and Charlie Adam? Craig Moore used to get booed regularly as did Alan Hutton when they started out. The pair of them had the strength of character to get it together though. I used to ****ing hate it when it happened to them though.

My biggest worry is if things don't get better fans will start voting with their feet next season when the uniqueness of our situation wears off. I have gone to most of the home games this season, but last week I ended up watching the second series of Game of Thrones instead. I find it pitiful that I found the antics of a fictional dwarf more exciting than watching the bears.

Great points, Moses.

This season is a write off. It's done and dusted and is the first step in our recovery to the top

Next season is the crux. The fantastic support the club has currently enjoyed may erode pretty quickly if we don't start seeing an acceptable (for where we are) level of fitba.
 
Please forgive the intrusion but this is the first time I've witnessed Gambol, Edge and MD make serious comments on a thread. <yikes>

Ahm gobsmacked,. not sure if I like it :undecided:










ps; the way forward is to join the English league, let the green ****s fester in their own ****e.

Gambol and I don't really get on these days, but Snoopy has hit the nail on the bastard head in this instance.

Gambol is the scary one. He appears to be having a serious discussion about football. To my knowledge, he's never previously appeared to have so much as a passing interest in the game <yikes>
