I see all of these "we should have signed Callum Paterson" posts.
Has it occurred to anyone that maybe he didn't want to sign? We can't keep going on about what we think the manager is doing wrong, if we don't know the details.
For me, we need to get money for Barrie while we still can, he's free to leave soon. I also think that if he had been any other nationality than Scottish, nobody would be having this discussion about keeping him.
He's a good player, but not the type of player we need

Agree 100%, I don't understand McKay, either he has an inflated opinion of his own ability or more likely he doesn't like hard work and he doesn't fancy the idea of tracking back, putting in 100% for 90 minutes and competing for his position. I hope he goes to Cardiff where he might actually improve rather than to Notts Forrest under Warburton and Weir.
2.) 03 Jul 2017 18:19:10
The writing has been on the wall since the beginning of last season with McKay.
I remember being distinctly unimpressed with his form and body language at the beginning of the season and thought Warburton should have dropped him to give him a reality check but it never seemed to happen, kept being allowed to put in mediocre performance after performance.
There is no questioning the ability there but like I have thought and many have said, his attitude, passion, commitment are all more than questionable. He doesn't come across to me as someone who enjoys playing for the club so better off without in my opinion.
3.) 03 Jul 2017 18:33:06
It's not really the fact that he may not have wanted to sign but I can't really remember of that many rumours that we were even interested in Patterson. If you don't ask you don't get.

If Whittaker is a free agent try signing him as back up to Tavernier and Wallace and get rid of Hodson leaving Beerman as third choice/ squad rotation

Why do some people on here keep saying things like "we need to sign a couple of players from Europe" and "lets get in a few South American boys"
We signed Emerson, Fredrico Nieto - South American - Rubbish
Nuno Capucho, Jerome Rotten, Letizi, Bo Anderson, Aarron Niguez
Why are people against good Scottish players for the mythical "somebody, anybody from Europe will be better".
1.) 25 Apr 2017 07:23:26
It's easy to hand pick a few bad foreign players and make a case against signing them however you could just as easily produce a list of foreign players who have done an excellent job for us. We have a budget and I can't really think of many Scottish players that we could get within our budget that would significantly improve the team
2.) 25 Apr 2017 11:25:02
There is nobody currently in the spfl that is good enough to impove us so hence the reason we look elsewhere.
3.) 25 Apr 2017 13:04:06
Sebo123 are you forgetting that a big group of really good players we've had in the past were foreign? Albertz, Cannigia, Gattuso, Van Bronkhorst, Arteta, just to name a few. I agree with Bengy, you've just cherry picked some duds.
4.) 25 Apr 2017 14:34:53
In reply to Sebo. foreign players on the wjole are more gifted than our players.
5.) 25 Apr 2017 14:48:47
Aye and how much did they cost between them? Abt 20odd mil
6.) 25 Apr 2017 08:01:50
Sebo123 because if we want to win the league and compete in Europe, then Scottish players are nowhere near good enough imo.
7.) 25 Apr 2017 18:01:16
Sure you referring to Erik Bo Anderson? Because he scored like 15 goals in 20 games and injury killed his career not really the same as guys like rothen.
8.) 25 Apr 2017 18:04:20
Get Ryan Jack, Steven naismith, Jason cummings for a start. But we also need a big powerful midfielder, anyone know where to find one?
9.) 25 Apr 2017 19:12:30
i can cherry pick 10 great forreigners to every one u say is a dud mate so why are u against this idea i'm not saying we need to get all our team forreign i just think we need something different
10.) 25 Apr 2017 20:04:17
Not saying i am against signing players from abroad, it's the "anyone from Europe" as some sort of magical solution to how weak some of our current players are.
You say that for every player i have picked there are ten good ones i haven't (i think it might be closer to 1 bad for every good), however for every rubbish scottish player there is also a good one as well. Let's not think that Holtio will be any better than Holt (as an example) just because he is from Malaga
Surely the criteria should be signing should be "are they better than what we have", because surely that's what we need to be focusing on, not that he has 12 caps for Bulgaria.
Just picked those players as an example of some of the poor ones we have signed (Cee - point taken about Bo Anderson) (Stu-is-bru - Canniga was signed from Dundee, a scottish clubb)
11.) 25 Apr 2017 20:15:04
Just to clarify
I am not against signing foreign players, i am just pro signing the best player possible regardless of where they are from.
I also agree with most of the comments on where we need to strengthen (although i think it's less players than some others do)
I think Callum Paterson offers more than Tav, and if somebody points towards a better player for the position, i'll be happy to change my mind
SIDE NOTE
Craig Gordon made a good save at the end from Dodoo
Armstrong was their best player
McGregor scored their goal
Griffiths won their pen
There is quality in scottish football, i genuinely believe that often it doesn't shine because of the teams that they play in
22 Jan 2017 17:13:13
Rangers V Greenock Morton
Few other SPL teams have drawn each other, looks like a good draw for us
1.) 22 Jan 2017 17:19:43
Looks good to me too, a home tie against lower league opposition albeit Duffy has them playing better than they have for decades.
2.) 22 Jan 2017 17:46:50
As a Morton man, I ain't confident for Rangers. We are vulnerable to Set Pieces and Morton have scored tonnes from them this season.
3.) 22 Jan 2017 21:13:03
Gone the days of filling out a bookie slip of 5-0 etc. now we're sitting actually thinking how him Duffy has got Morton playing well lol,
4.) 22 Jan 2017 23:07:09
They've already beaten Premier League opposition and gotten to the League Cup Semis where they were very unfortunate to get beaten by Aberdeen.
5.) 23 Jan 2017 08:36:43
Rangers to win by 4 or 5 nil,
Im always the optimist lol
6.) 23 Jan 2017 10:00:45
It is a home game, we have the players so long as they are correctly deployed and this is a must win game just like all the rest. There is simply no excuse if we don't progress to the next round.
If we start with the eleven that finished the game then we should win by two or three goals and who knows, by the time we play them Rossiter might be back in the side and Kiernan might have learned how to defend corners!
7.) 23 Jan 2017 15:06:04
Delboy1979, the main thing is we beat morton and progress to the quarter finals of the scottish cup! Irrespective of how many we win by, as long as we're in the hat for the quarter final draw mate! that's all that matters! Of course we all want us to win with a bit of style, but the result obviously is the most important, we'll pick the bones of the performance after we're through!
11 Apr 2017 09:30:30
Against Celtic, has to be Wallace and Beerman on the left AND Tav and Hodson on the right.
Would go back to Hill and Wilson and bring Bates on later in the game, help him settle into the role
09 Apr 2017 19:17:45
100%
I would question your source about all future rumours
10 Feb 2017 21:50:31
Hold on. We have it on Twitter and on the clubs official website
One boy says he spoke to Warburton and that Warburton says he hasn't reigned and you all get on the boards back.
Seems 2 pieces of news come from official sources and one comes from the BBC. I know who i believe
What has the board done wrong this time? Just BBC stirring things up
24 Jan 2017 17:12:27
I hope your right, but there are so many more obstacles other than just King (and i don't believe he is an obstacle) in the way.
From day one Warburton said that January prices were over inflated, people desperate for players that fit a certain criteria will spend. The league has gone this season. Whatever money we have (in my opinion) is better spent in the summer when there is better value for money. So 2 laon players make sense.
Having just survived a financial meltdown, why are so many fans desperate for us to start spending money we clearly don't have?
24 Jan 2017 08:36:43
15 million budget?
You are having a laugh. If that's what he wants then he won't be getting the job. We don't have that!
Even if we did (maybe we do, maybe i'm wrong) i'm sure FFP regulations would stop us spending anything like that and we would be prevented from European competition.
Can't see the Red Bull thing happening either, the last 4 years have been a journey. Just because we are back in the SPL doesn't mean that journey is complete.
We need to stop "wishing" for an instant fix and accept it will take a couple more seasons
28 Sep 2017 02:27:15
Says the ever reliable source The Daily Record
Which would never, ever exaggerated and blow things out of proportion to sell papers.
Every post Fod makes is negative, so for him to speak about Pedro spreading like "poison" is laughable
27 Sep 2017 23:11:56
Mcleish has had 2 jobs in the last four years. One of them was four months before being sacked from a club in Egypt!
AND you want to give him 5 million
2003 SIGNED - Ostenstad, Emerson Capucho, Vanoli, Berg, Namouchi
2004 SIGNED - Vignal, Djordjic, Mladenovic, Santala (Though admittedly he did have a better window)
2005 SIGNED - Jeffers, Nieto, Bernard, Maniero, N'Guessan, Ashikodi (He got about 50% of his signings right this window)
Mcleish was in charge when we suffered 7 consecutive loses to Celtic
First season in charge he was 17 points behind Celtic - with a team he inherited from Advocatt
Sure, he sounds like the answer. Or could it be that he was given 3 years in the job to build and shape his own team. SO we only remember the good things
Some people on here would have had Mcleish sacked first season - now they want him back
25 Sep 2017 18:21:48
Get McLeish in?
In the last 4 years he has managed in Belgium for a year and Egypt for 4 months before being sacked. If he is such a good manager, why has NO OTHER CLUB made a move for him?
McInnes has done nothing against Celtic in the years we have not been in the top flight. Aberdeen are playing some brutal football just now and are heavily reliant on deals that he has done with Celtic. Remember they just got pumped by Motherwell and also drew 0-0 with Hearts.
Pedro needs a full season in charge - you can't just go changing manager after 7 league games! Should Klopp be sacked? Koeman? Spending more and arguably worse performances.
Insanity from some people on here.
20 Jul 2017 14:57:15
Great post fintytint.
Some people on this site would have players sold if they lost a five-a-side training game
02 Jul 2017 10:26:24
Sure i saw an interview with Gordon Strachan once who was told to get rid of his blue car before going to Parkhead.
He is trying to breed passion in these players. Also, if one of our players are annoyed because they can't wear green boots (despite the wealth of colours on every make of boot) they can jog on. They obviously care more about their fashion than the club.
Make you like Ped less CAW2, makes me like him a lot more
