Why, what's happened?

The best marketing in the world won't get more people to attend unless the product on the park is drastically improved. The squad needs improved by getting better quality players. Does the new board have the funds for this?

An early opportunity for the new board to show they won't tolerate this sort of thing. They MUST act

LOL we're not exactly going to get that calibre of player are we? And whilst it was necessary to remove the previous board the new board still have to prove themselves

Do you think what you're suggesting would persuade people to return & watch what is ultimately at present a dire product on the park?

I think it needs to be remembered that players get given free transfers for a reason i.e. they're deemed surplus to requirements at their club. Signing this type of player is always a risk. Perhaps too big a risk at times. I'd like to think we will have some money available to buy players this summer. Isn't that one of the reasons we all wanted King & Co into the boardroom?

Firstly Prso is the type of signing we're unlikely to make again because he has no resale value. Untried kids need to be good enough first of all. Too many of us forget that. We should be trying to bring in younger players(under25) whom we could sell on again in a few years.That will likely require transfer fees to be paid. The yahoos have been doing this in the past few years. We need to do likewise. We are at a very dangerous crossroads where we need to decide which direction we go. Get it wrong & we'll be out in the widerness for years to come. Many have great expectations of this new board. I hope they're not let down.

Attendances will recover when there's a better product on the park. That will not be achieved by playing untried kids & Bosmans. Quality signings will be required this summer regardless of which league we're and that means investment from the new board

Why have a go at Moshni? He's hardly played this season. McCoist signed Zaliukas & Mcgregor(both CB's) but persisted with McCulloch at CB. Total madness. McCulloch is a liability in defence.He is too slow & cannot read a game. He got away with it in the part-time leagues but not this season. Did you see the goal we conceded yesterday? A ball into the box which should have been meat 'n' drink for any decent CB. But not oor Jig.A guy makes a run in front of him & heads the ball off our post and another nets the rebound. Any decent CB would attack the ball coming into the box but Jig is not a CB. Whilst we're not great at CB I still think our biggest problem is middle to front i.e. not scoring enough goals

That's more or less what's been happening judging by the number of goals they've scored between them

The only place I'd play McCulloch is upfront on his own in a 4-5-1 which is a formation I'd tempted to play rather than 4-4-2 as we simply cannot control the MF as we saw once again yesterday.We get outnumbered & overrun continuously in MF and we need to try to stop it happening next Sunday against Hibz or we'll get hammered again Things are getting quite desperate up front as one of our strikers seem to be able to score.No reason why Jig couldn't get a shot there. He surely can't do any worse than the current lot

And Boyd and Miller up front

Some such as Boyd,Miller & McCulloch are now well past their best. McCall must surely see this now for himself. It will be interesting to see if he perseveres with them. McCoist did and it cost him dearly.

Now looks to me Newcastle are wanting rid off these players & using Rangers as their shop window to entice buyers.

McCall is definitely the appointment which carries the least risk IMO. Cathro would need to go somewhere and prove himself as a manager as opposed to a coach before he could be considered. Not sure Warburton would want to come to Scottish football.

Chris Graham was a target for the mhedia in this country. He should have known that. He handed all the ammunition they ever needed with this inane tweet.For the good name of Rangers he had to go unfortunately

No surprise there then? Vile newspaper

I've nothing against Chris Graham at all. FWIW I think he'd make a good Non exec director even if I'm a bit bemused at the suddeness at which he got this position since last Friday. His past personal baggage is his problem but once Rangers get dragged into this then that's another thing altogether as far as I'm concerned.

Do we really want someone as a Rangers director with this sort of baggage? What other stuff has he tweeted ?

He didn't deliver a slap in the face to anyone. He offended Islam in general which is completely different. That includes Muslims who want nothing to do with Chaudry or whatever he is called.

If only it were that simple............... The problem is that this will eventually be used as a stick to beat Rangers with by our mhedia enemies i.e. having CG as a director damaging Rangers reputation. His position will become untenable & he'll need to go

McCall is playing mind games here to get promotion. He's trying to make these players think they're as good as they were when they joined Rangers but we all know they've since regressed. Dangling the carrot of new contracts is likewise.We all know only one or two from the dozen or so who are out of contract at the end of the season might get an offer but he's probably hoping this might improve the performances of the others. Whether it works or not is another matter

I don't think you can compare the two. One is a deliberate attempt to offend. The other is not.

I think the problem is though it could cause offence to all muslims(not just Chaudrey) whether intentional or not.
