To be fair, Hill and Wilson are looking more solid as the weeks go by. But if either is missing we do leak goals. I'm not asking for a Weir or an Ehiogu, someone who does the basics without fannying about like Kiernan would do. But I agree we need someone to put the chances away. We're a great team if you overlook the fact that we can't score and we can't defend

We'd be 6-8 points better off this season with a proper defender in place of Kiernan.

Agree. I look at the Liverpool team on paper and it's a big "meh". But Klopp seems to have them playing like supermen. Early days but they'll take a bit of stopping.

Whoever he is, I do hope he's a centre half.

You've pretty much described myself. Back in the day I was a bit of a football obsessive, particularly Scottish football where I was something of a Rain Man. It would have been unthinkable to watch an Old Firm game and every few minutes hear a Celtic player's name and think 'who?' in the way I do now. These days I'm far more into my rugby and cricket. If it wasn't for Rangers, I think I might be lost to football for good.

There are a handful of that squad whom I've never heard of. Who is Stephen Kingsley FFS? Yet Charlie Adam can't get a game

The first few weeks of the season, I thought it would be a Man City procession to the title. But Chelsea and Liverpool look the most impressive teams so far.

If it wasn't for the Rangers they'd all be following the rugby up there.

McGhee. LOL.

A lot of clubs' fans have been royally shafted through no wrong-doing of their own. Obviously ourselves, but proud clubs such as Portsmouth, Coventry, Wimbledon and Leeds United spring to mind.

Here's a prediction. The Daily Record won't exist in 10 years time.

As someone familiar with that town and with family there, you have my full sympathy. Is it still run by drug-pushing gangsters?

Yeah I'm inclined to agree about Waghorn. Where do you live, to get home at such an absurd hour?

A serious question for the anti-Warburton brigade. Who could we get that would do a better job? Anyone saying McLeish or Smith must surely be given a lifetime ban. McInnes? Fugeddaboutit.

As a sidenote, Blair Alston should be playing for a far better team than St Johnstone.

Fair point, but I remember discussing Barry Ferguson with an Arsenal fan around 2000, and he asked me who he would replace in their midfield. Without hesitation I said Gilberto. He was just a magnificent footballer in his pomp.

Settle petal.

I cannot agree with the OP more. And for what it's worth, I think we'll finish 2nd comfortably this season.

If that truly is the case then the blame lies at Warburton's door. But I think Garner will come good for us.

Pray tell what you refer to by "attributes".

Just call me Nostradamus. This Gardner chap will do the business for us, I'm convinced.

We reek of a team playing for the Top Six.

Well, that's Rangers in 2016. Conceding goals for fun.

We should have stuck with Le Guen. But that wasn't Barry's fault IMO.

I'm just starting to wonder why, after forking out 1.6m, Warburton still isn't giving him a "run of games".
