Hope your right mate could do with a right all day session! Just hope u didny get that information fae that dick sean batty lol

Head for battlefield road over near the vic hospital loads of pus and full od rangers fans! bar buddha and the international will be bouncing ad u can drink in in there beer gardens if its nice!

This time last year we were financialy solvent after our European run. Walter Smith though through bad decision making and bad management has put us deeper in the myre than we were when Advocaat left.

 

Some will argue that the chairman and Bain are to blame too, but it was Smith who failed to strengthen the squad in key areas before the CL qualifiers and it was Smith who left us in the debt were in now following the spending spree in the wake of that defeat.

 

The only way the club can get out of the mess it finds itself now is to play its way out of it. We have no plan B this time round.

 

Last summer has left a very bitter taste in my mouth and i blame smiths incompetence.

 

The league campaign this season too seen some very strange and baffling team selections and his overcausiousness knew no bounds.

 

I am as relieved as i am pleased that we won the league and have to acknowledge Celtics own incompetence and the part they played in bringing the title to Ibrox.

 

You wont get lucky like that two years running Walter. Just ask Gordon Strachan.

 

That means success on the park on all fronts. winning the league next year will be do or die again. CL too. we really need to get to the next stages as well.

 

Walter Smith is not the man to take us forward

You wouldn't think we had just won the league 2 days ago reading this comment, some people are just never happy! we could win the champions league next season and you still wouldn't be happy! My advice 2 you is mate away and get your hole or something you've obviously not had it in a while and enjoy us being champions 08/09!

Not been on gersnet as much as i would have liked in recent months but i am not suprised that there is still some WS bashers in here! What does the guy need to do? he came in at a time when we were on our backs and he steadied the ship when he came in, then took us within 90 minutes of the league and uefa cup and we only lost the league due to the fact the spl are clueless fucks! Won a cup double. Found us a arguably a better centre half than cuellar in big boughy when nobody thought that was possible including me! Then a shaky start to the season seen us going out of europe to Kaunas which was unacceptable then falling behind 7 points to the paedophiles he lifted us again for a last assault on the league and he has done it! Right now is not a time for change we need stability, just look at the cunts from the east end, even if they do get a half decent manager its going to take time for them to get a good balance as i can see a few of there players leaving in the summer! So i think walter (Mr Rangers) will again go on to have a sucessful season again next year with the league and europe hopefully we can look to the last 16, but i expect us to go back to the boring 4-5-1 in europe, still if it gets us to the last 16 ill settle for it!

do u know this for sure and where could you find out for defo?

Does anybody know whether they are opening ibrox today for the team coming back with the trophy?

I think sometimes people forget that sport is about winning first and foremost and looking pretty while doing it comes a distant second.

 

I still believe fully that this want for pretty football at the expense of results is a symptom of the sky/tv generation (says a youngster himself) and is ruining the game.

 

Win first, win second, win third. After that, if you're good enough do it with total football.

 

I know many will disagree but I leave Ibrox happier when we've won than when we played nice footy but didn't win. Yes, both could/should be achievable, but i'll still take the winning first.

Spot on super ally at the end of the day it's points that count not finesse!

no i would rather we played at least decent football and tried to win every game, at least in the SPL.

 

Thats more than possible with the squad we have and did have last season.

 

But its not on our managers agenda or he just isnt capable of producing a team that can actually play decent football with the players he brought in.

 

And he has plenty to choose from!

Gisbeer it's not always possible to play flowing football and win games especially for the old firm. Though the recent times has showed more teams having a go at us they stuff there midfield and defence (exactly what we did in europe last season) it does not let us play football we have got players in there that can play decent football but a lot of the time it's a scrap more than anything else in the spl. it's ok trying to play decent football and win games but i think it's i bit naive to think if we play great football we will win the league. Remember the tommy burns celtic teams every celtic fan used to love watching them play, they say it was 1 of the best celtic teams they have watched from a footballing point of view, but what did they win?????? I would rather win trophys and championships than the team been labelled the same as tommy burns team "GREAT FOOTBALLING TEAM BUT NEVER WON THE LEAGUE" at the end of the day gisa its the championship that counts!

I sense people who have had to sit in mute frustration while Rangers struggled from poor performance to poor performance and who are now intent on exacting retribution against the naysayers. Unfortunately, were it not for the fact that ra sellick have all but collapsed these last few weeks, there would have been no Rangers 'revival'. Were there really something to crow about, I fancy I would be crowing too, as would most others who feel disappointed with our manager. I'm delighted we're at the top of the league but I would rather it were on our own merit.

I don't care how we win the championship as long as it comes home! You keep batting on about not doing it on our own merit! forget celtic it's us that are producing the results at the moment it's us that scoring the goals to fire us to top of the league! Would you rather that we were playing excellent football and not winning the league or grinding the results out and winning the league i know what i would prefer!

Quote:

The opposition are more often than not playing us off the park. Think back to St Johnstone up at McDermaind Park. They could've put us out on our arses all because we sat back and invited them onto us.

That's just not true. We are dominating most games and are far more comfortable than we've been for a long time.

Agreed 100%! A would take an educated guess and say that you don't go to ibrox or away games if you think teams are playing us off the park in fact do u even watch games on the tele with that comment. I honestly don't know how you can make that statement crazy!

Another thing ive noticed aswell the amount of people on the forum that are still battering on about the kaunas game it was a bad bad night in the history of rangers and cost us a lot of money and could have been avoided if we had brung in mendes and few others before the game but ffs your going back to last july its done, finished, were out, lets move on. Domestically were top of the spl, in a cup final, in a cup semi-final scored the most goals in the spl,concedied the least amount of goals in the spl, got the top scorer in the spl, got the top assist player in the spl, got the brightest young talent in the spl, i could go on but were in a very good position for winning another domestic treble and yet far to many people are still puting the team and manager down get a grip, you might never like walter smith and thats fine but the more fans or so called fans that put the manager down the more detromental it becomes to the club!

No doubt about it as far as I'm concerned. Suddenly the manager who announced to the media only weeks ago that Rangers didn't have the quality of young player to bring through to the first team is now saying to the same media that apparently do have such talented youngsters after all. You can only assume there's been a Board meeting in the interim.[/Q

 

Where was he quoted in saying that "rangers didn't have the quality of young player to bring through to the first team" I didn't see that interview not saying it didn't happen but i just find it very strange he would come out with they words. It is more or less saying that murray park and the whole youth development team are worthless. I would like to see that full interview because i've heard him saying in a numerous amount of occasions that there are 3 or 4 knocking on the door of the first team!

I'm not the biggest fan of walter smith, but ffs can fans on here not just back the manager instead of every opportunity slate him, i was reading the the transfer threads post and it went from a transfer rumour about james mcarthur and alex smithies to getting rid of smith ffs its a joke. Were at a critical part of the season and we all need to be 110% behind the team and the manager. Were back where we belong to the top of the league lets get behind the team and manager and roar them on to the championship instead of putting them down all the time!

A take it walter would still be gaffer then! nobody's mentioned the manager!

WS seems to be more interested in not losing matches than grabbing a game by the balls and winning it 3/4/5-0. Pathetic!

To be fair gazza weve scored the most goals in the spl and weve got the best defensive record as well so it can't be all that bad. Last season was bad because nearly every game he played 4-5-1 but this season at least he is going 4-4-2 for the majority of games. I just think smith isn't a gambling manager he won't commit himself unless he needs to. He just set up yesterday not to get beat! whether thats right or wrong is another debate but the draw is more favourable to us in my eyes!

big kirkdinho he is the man!

To be fair I bet there were PLENTY of fans who wished they stayed in their pit.

 

After suffering through the 1st 45 mins I struggled to be bothered to watch the 2nd half.

 

Sorry but the performance from our team in the 1st 45 would have sent anyone to sleep.

 

 

And some people, myself included, get so worked up about an OF game that they actually prefer to NOT watch it, means that I support Wija in his statement.

 

That OF game today would have put anyone to sleep.

 

Do you NEED to watch the game to be a "Rangers man" ? I think not.

I can honestly say that if my team are playing rubbish i am not going to get off my seat and jump out the stadium or house, pub wherever! I was at the game yesterday in fact ive only missed 1 game home and away all season and ive endured many a games like yesterday but just cause there playing bad doesn't mean you get up and fuck off you stay and support or sit in your armchair and cheer them on!:rfc:

I think this was a poor result since we should have had the onion bag rippling. OK Macdonald missed a sitter for them, but if we had taken our chances .......

 

Glad I stayed in my pit!

whit kind of rangers man are you coming out with a statement like im glad a stayed in ma pit?

I can't believe any sane football fan never rangers fan would disagree that he is not a natural finisher. I agree that his all round game is not the greatest but his goalscoring record come on your having a laugh! he is only 25 and is already the second highest spl scorer in history. Mibay you've caught big boydy pumping your missus or something a dont't know but you've certainly got an agenda against him!

For queen and country lets fuck these foreigners tommorow!

Impossible to predict without seeing the starting 11, but if we leave their best defender out..........Boyd, and go for the jugular I believe we'll beat them because they truly are pish and there's something far wrong if Walter Smith can't see that.[/Q

 

dont understand that quote. what do u mean leave their best defender out........ boyd and go for the jugular. I would've thought going for the jugular would mean INCLUDE your top scorer and in fact the SPL's top scorer must just be me that thinks boyd's a goal scoring machine. the fact that he hasn't got the greatest of scoring records against the tims should mean nothing bawheid caldwell and big mic horseface arnt the greatest centre halfs in the world and its just duck thats there to be broken.

Has anyone heard this rumour about boruc failing a drug test and the papers have pictures of him snorting the marching powder? Thats a few people today told me about it and 1 guy in particular who is usually quite useful with his storys has siad that its going to come out in the papers this weekend! dont know whether this is just another rumour started by someone or whether it is true!

Didn't know him personally but always sad to hear of a fellow bluenose losing his life at a young age.

R.I.P GARRY

Havent heard that term for years!!!!

 

First time i heard it was in 1994 when going to an OF game on Granite City supporters bus. We passed a tim coach and 1 guy on our bus jumped started thumping the window and shouted "Get off the Queens highway you dirty ******* b*****ds" ......me and my mate were in knots

Still a noted term down our shores gribz. thats our five-a-side team name except obviously its the the queens 5 lol

Boyds record v celtic is played 22 scoring 1! it isn't a good record but i would still play him evry time if he gets a sniff of a chance in the box he is always liable to take it. He is the only natural finisher we have so i think scoring at parkhead would give him even more confidence its just a monkey on his back that he can't shake off but mark my words once he does eventually shake it off it will open the floodgates and that scum from the east end will start fearing the big man!
