Super Cooper 0 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Rofl. Absolute nonsense Berliner and as for using Wiki as a source. Lmfao. C'mon man! We signed 5 new players before Seb Faure ffs. He didn't come in until late August. The 6 players stuff is absolute excuse-filled deflective horse shit. We had many more on the books that summer even before our first signing was made. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
der Berliner 3,318 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 So Faure was one of the newbies then, and McCoist referred to one of the three listed seperatly - i.e. Hutton, Perry, and/or Hegarty - when speaking of six "first teamers". No big deal. Having checked on Hegarty, it was probably him who was not referred to as a "first teamer". SC, what is difficult to understand about "first team players"? 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,062 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Add Goian and Bocanegra for starters. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Nothing, that is not my problem. My problem is people claiming Allys job was made harder and his ineptness justified because we started the season with 6 players on our books which has been claimed but was not actually the case. We started our first match of the season with almost every player a full international and all existing oldco Rangers players, Ian Black apart. Back on topic we go into Allys 4th season as manager, on the back of 3 failures with the second strongest squad in the country, second highest wage bill in the country and Allys 2nd strongest squad since taking over and a squad easily strong enough to battle it out for 4 domestic honours. The choices Ally has at his disposal in Scottish football terms are unbelievable. And i doubt we are done yet either. There are no excuses for failure this season. A treble must be the bare minimum. If he doesn't win the Ramsdens at the 3rd time of asking..........wow. Unthinkable. No manager in the history of the Scottish lower leagues has ever been backed as much as Ally has by their board. It's high time for him to give the club and the fans something back after taking so much out and so many failures. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
forlanssister 3,062 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 Broadfoot was there too, Andy Little however was out of contract at the time even though he did return for pre-season. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

der Berliner 3,318 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 we had over 60 full time players post admin. If you count all people aged 18 and less in there as full time players, indeed. I spoke of first team players, as did McCoist at the time. And I reckon he knew fine well that Davis, Bocanegra, Goian and Broadfoot wouldn't hang about either. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
the gunslinger 3,366 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 many of the reserve full time players would be over 18. but then even the nonsense figure of 6 is 6 more than the rest of the league combined. 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the gunslinger 3,366 Posted June 29, 2014 Share Posted June 29, 2014 if i had to put a figure on the over 18 players who were fulltime after admin i suspect it's 25-30 0 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
