Ok, he didn't actually look offside to me. Weird how it takes so bloody long for these VAR calls.

Not sure how we didn't get a penalty for that guy just running straight into Kent.

Fucking hell, Glen Kamara again? Can't fucking wait for this game with the ball going through Kamara, and on this pitch...

Was he not the weirdo that made up the myth of Rangers being doped up on caffeine? Think that's probably what he was getting at.

It doesn't matter what other teams would or wouldn't have done in that situation. We set the barometer. Be proud of the fact we did the right thing and can hold ourselves to higher standards than others even if it isn't reciprocated.

I've read it a couple of times and that's all I could gather from your post. I don't get people who are so against what we did. They would be livid at anything like that if it happened against us, such a strange paradox.

You're either implying that if Di Canio hadn't stopped the game then West Ham would have finished with silverware, or otherwise you have no point to make. Which is it?

Cause the guy receiving the ball at the throw in had the touch of a drunken elephant, he didn't get the chance to blooter it, or whatever he was going to do.

I've never really thought he's that great a player. I don't think I'd have any emotions if he were to leave.

Reading that people think Beale has thrown Tillman under a bus and that he'll have lost a lot of respect from the players in some places. I can't agree with that, he can still defend Tillman and explain what happened. The simple fact is that we have to improve our performances though. This was nearly the banana skin, I feel like when we do slip up it might cause a cascade of results if we can't get the team gelled and performing well.

I dunno. Di canio did it for West Ham.

We play with one striker who isn’t a finisher or poacher. When he’s on his game he can do the other stuff well but his finishing is the weakest part of his game. Colak had pretty much equalled Morelos’ goal tally for the past 3 seasons prior to the break. I can understand why Beale is considering playing both.

Can't believe we haven't dropped more points yet under Beale. Not that I don't think he's doing a good job, just that aside from the Hearts game we have made really hard work of every other game so far. It needs to be addressed before we do start dropping the points, because with that the confidence in the squad disappears, I feel it already teeters on the brink.

Ross County have had roughly 1/3rd of the number of shots as us, but have the same number on target as us.

That is a strong bench, 6 of those players could easily be in the starting 11.

He looks a bit like Cadfael.

You're saying my argument is poor because I'm not in a position to offer Alfie anything. So why bother discussing it? May as well not then.

Oh right, well as none of us have any power let's just close the forum rather than discuss it!

Poor argument really, it's nothing to do with his fee or 'rangers fans being rangers fans', it's looking at him and asking whether he is reliable enough to give a new contract to. For me, certainly not as a top earner anyway, and whatever contract we did give would have to be loaded with incentives rather than a high salary.

I think you need to reread what he said mate 😂

The thing is, you don't actually have to take him as a whole package and I think that is what we are considering at the moment, we don't have to take him at all. Look back at his stats, they aren't that spectacular, for the last few seasons he has barely managed to break 10 goals in the league. He's certainly not banked enough to piss around as much as he does. He might have surpassed Boyd's goal tally for his first stint, but Boyd wasn't here as long as Morelos has been? And Boyd wasn't given the luxury of being the defacto number 1 striker in that time either. If we could get the Morelos that bothers his arse and works hard then I would sign him, but he's shown too often to me that he's happy to arse around whenever he feels like it. Unreliable is the word that comes to mind, inconsistent is something else.

It's more the fact that a player that has been lazy, overweight and miserable for 50% of his time with us has posted something about how hard he works after managing to score a goal. It's just a bit of a joke that he probably doesn't get.

Do Rangers fans hate him? Not sure they do, I think a lot of fans are tired of him. Giving him another contract would be a huge gamble in my opinion.

I struggle to love him to be honest. Yeah it's great when he's playing well, but we have to deal with his stroppy months on end fat, lazy periods too.

There is a bit of confidence coming back with these one touch flick ons. We are looking like a real football team.
