Gribz 743 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Played 1 season too much mate. Would have retired an absolute star last summer but this year has caught up on him. Probably not his fault as WS has used him as if he is 19 plus Andy Webster couldnt manage to pull on a jersey. Weir needed to be used sparingly like Alex ferguson uses Giggs and Scholes but Weir has played almost every game. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
bmck 117 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Definitely. David Weir is a legend, but he's had an absolutely terrible season. This is an absolutely horrific performance. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gers4Life 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Horrific midfield from us and Celtic have played us off the park, no support for jelavic, lafferty on for Naismith for 2nd half. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
metlika 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Tbh I called for him to retire at the start of 09/10 season but he was brilliant, was caught out for pace a few times but his reading of the game is top notch. This season he has been very very average, a season too far indeed for me. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
craig 5,199 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Yep, much of our problems lie at having to rely on him. Time to say "Thanks Sir David, but father time has called your number" and put Kyle Bartley at the back beside Bougherra. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest puk Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Smith is responsible, although he would have you believe it is the bank, leave the players out of it Smith makes the selections and signings. If he cannot and will not see what the chap on the Clapham omnibus has seen for some time he should consider his position, in the interest of the club and the fans. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
stewarty 1,879 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Bartley and Bougherra should be the centre half partnership for the rest of the season. But it wont happen sadly. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gazza_8 233 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Said to my mate when it was 2-0, "If Weir hung up his boot at the end of last season he'd have become a Rangers legend." 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
ian1964 10,481 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 doesn't matter who played at the back today,whoever played there would have been exposed as we have no midfield 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Danny 0 Posted February 20, 2011 Share Posted February 20, 2011 Ah, this is what I was going to start a new thread about. Disagree Ian, Bougherra wasn't exposed like Weir was. Davie was a fucking shambles today, and was directly to blame for the first 2 goals. He's too old, slow, and no longer is capable of playing at this level. He got done against Sporting too but they're not as good as Celtic so he got away with it. If Walter has any sense he'd drop Weir permanently and put Bartley in there. We need pace, strength and someone to scare strikers. Weir is sadly pathetic now, and today was his worst display since joining us. And it's just been deteriorating this season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
