Where’s the motm poll? ?

We have to drop Kamara, that’s clear. Personally I’d give Davis a taste of the bench after that shameful effort against Hearts and I’d play Jack, Arfield, Aribo and Halliday in midfield.

We should stop this topic right here

Correct our problems started and finished in midfield. Kamara was poor but the way he just gave up was unforgivable. Davis was a disgrace. Jack was missed badly. The one bright light was Polster, who looked quite superb at times and we need to see more of him.

Appalling.

The worst performance by a Rangers midfielder in a very long time.

Spot on.

Agreed but no poorer than Davis

There are at least 4 Rangers players who should be embarrassed to wear the shirt today ... and Flanagan isn’t one of them. Only one of our midfield has turned up.

I think we'll do well today. Hat trick and MOTM for Flanagan ?

I always had time for Windass but he needed to be playing in a much better team than we had back then. Could he do a job for us now? I’d like to think so but I somehow doubt he’s the answer to the genuine problem you highlight.

If people are leaving early just to avoid waiting for their beer to be served then the hell with them. On the other hand if people leave early because they need to avoid the frequently horrendous traffic congestion then the clear need is for fans to be able to get clear of the stadium area more efficiently. The Albion car park is a design disaster and it simply has to be possible to get cars out of it and on the motorway more quickly. If it's the subway then can that be improved in terms of access and capacity?

Why don't we judge the likes of Flanagan after we see how he plays instead of continually undermining our players before they've even taken the field. Flanagan is what he is and if the manager thinks he's the right man for the shirt then I'm sure he won't let us down. Let's go.

Very welcome news.

So is Leigh Griffiths, thank God. ?

Come home Josh. ?? Who starts this crap?

It's come to this - that I should read on a Rangers forum that there is no anti-British sentiment in Ireland. Not only is that patently untrue but the perpetrator is trying to present a superior and definitive knowledge of Ireland, apparently on the assumption no one else has ever crossed the Irish Sea. On the many occasions I've been in Ireland I've been aware of three attitudes towards Britain. There's the carefully cultivated and essentially sterile attitude towards the tourist-customer, the craic merchants. Then there's the warmly polite welcome from people who genuinely hold no grudge and have no interest in republican grievance politics. And then there's those who barely contain their contempt for everything British, the people who'd take pride on spitting on you after putting a bullet in your head. There are plenty of the latter and to try to pull the wool over our eyes and pretend they don't exist is as asinine as it's false.

He's clearly what used to be called a wee shite. Anyone rushing to defend this cretin seriously needs to reconsider their own values.

It's everywhere. You can't move for people being infatuated with their own self-righteousness.

I think he's finding it hard to contain his sympathies for the oppressed Irish and their rightful monopoly on victimhood.

But you're making the assumption that signing will deliver what you describe. That's something you can only ever know after the event, it's a strictly retrospective opinion. You cannot say, as was suggested, that you can regret something in advance of knowing the outcome. What if you signed those players you describe and they failed to deliver your expectations - would that be something you could also regret in advance? The point is surely that you can fear a possible outcome but you can't regret the same outcome until after it happens.

It determines whether or not you can realistically attribute that regret to a particular event.

Conversely, I think if it wasn’t for the offensive anti-British stuff coming from Ireland I don’t think anyone here would give a crap about the Irish or their country.

We might regret an unwanted outcome but we would never know if a player we might have signed, but didn’t, would have changed that outcome. That would be the realm of guesswork.

How would we know to regret it?
