I must be one of the last people left who still want him to turn things around but he just can't help himself: Southend striker Nile Ranger charged with fraud and money laundering https://www.theguardian.com/footbal...dering?CMP=Share_AndroidApp_Copy_to_clipboard
Was just about to post this!!! What a ****ing Muppet! The lad had had too many chances before he came to us, we gave him to many and now other teams have given him several opportunities since. Genuinely thought he had what it takes to cut it at a decent level but the guy just can't keep his nose clean. The thing is he has been through court so many times now he must be a D&D away from jail time now, and in his eyes that makes him "cooler". Wasted talent and career in my eyes but its like the old saying goes "fool me once shame on me fool me twice shame on you" and in rangers case "fool me 1000 times you're a ****" Good riddance to the lad, no one will bat an eye lid when he ends up shot, stabbed or in jail....
He's going to end up dead in a flat somewhere. Had a bit of talent and wasted it. Don't feel sorry for him myself. Thousands of kids out there would have given their right arm for the chance he had.
You need to give up hope, he's a nasty piece of ****, always has been and always will be. People who have know him from an early age have always said he's absolute scrote and he'll always be a criminal, and they've be proven completely right. Joey Barton could at least put most of his criminal past behind him and sort his life out and make his career the priority, Ranger will never do that.
Yeah, I'd wanted him to turn it around in the past, but this is too far for me. Generally being a thug is one thing, but defrauding old ladies out of their savings? He can rot in jail.
He had a talent and opportunity that many kids dream of and would give their right nut for but he's a wanna be gangsta, any ounce or two of brain dust then he might have worked out that he could have made a fortune as a football player, as above he can rot.
The guys a ****ing arsehole, pure and simple. He deserves all he gets as far as whatever the law throws at him. Being half decent at football has given him the chance to make a ****ing good life for himself and his family. He constantly chooses to be 'gangsta'........................ tosser.
He should be preserved as cast iron evidence that there is no amount of good fortune that you cannot piss away by being a piece of ****e at heart
