Rangers banter 10

24 Oct 2025 10:19:56
That was embarrassing last night and I'm getting embarrassed too often just now. Obviously this is not on Rohl.
Controversial here but I'd drop Raskin. Play Cameron and Baron. Bring in Fernandez and Curtis too.
I've said Chermiti will come good but I must admit I've not seen a shred of evidence that that will be the case.

It was madness to pay 8m. On what evidence was that fee justified?
And as for Antman, what's happened. I expect him to take on his man, no pass back or cut inside. Confidence problems?
The owners misjudged Rangers and I suggest Rohl has too as he has one big job on his hands.

24 Oct 2025 11:02:20
Players are all low in confidence The Colonel, you're bang on even Raskin looks bang average right now mate, hopefully Rohl gets a team winning regularly in our league, wins only builds confidence.

24 Oct 2025 11:37:43
Chermiti would struggle to get a game for anyone in our division, not even exaggerating.

24 Oct 2025 11:51:48
I would love it for Chermiti to come good Colonel but all the evidence is pointing the other way and he looks worse every time we see him play. I suppose that it doesn't help things when the only player in the team who is performing is the goalie.


Lets pretend that he was a loan with an option to buy for £500k then you would just send him back as he looks over priced at half a million.

24 Oct 2025 13:17:45
Would have been better giving the 8 million to charity.

24 Oct 2025 09:49:21
First of all congratulations Asa on a thoroughly deserved 3 points. the better team won on the night.

As for us a very toothless and timid performance yet again, defensively the positioning was app wrong again. being dragged in to areas we should not have been or wanted to be. I think that in January defensively we need to remove loan players that aren't willing to run through brick walls. and I'll return to a statement I said on here a year or so ago. go and sign Gogic from St Mirren, yes I was derided for it a year ago, but think everyone can see he's a defender who defends. He's not a Rols Royce granted but he's a tank that's deserving of a go.

Danny Röhl has his work cut out, felt sorry for Butland last night as he made two or three top saves, at point blank too. Antman doesn't look even remotely like the player we signed, this coming off the touchline and the 5 yard safety pass every time. Really disheartening. Let's hope Sunday is a better result.

Again, congratulations to Asa my friend.

24 Oct 2025 10:00:41
Gogic walks into this team. Very vocal and a unit at the back. 100%er.

24 Oct 2025 10:05:59
Thank you my friend and I agree with most of your post. Personally I would not sign Gogic.
Fantastic siege defender but offers nothing else.

Would be great in a counter attacking set up but Rangers need to play front foot dominant football.

24 Oct 2025 10:57:39
Agree asa.

24 Oct 2025 11:38:30
I've been banging the gogic drum for years.

24 Oct 2025 11:48:04
You're welcome Asa.

I personally feel Gogic would be of the ilk that defends first and provide a solid foundation for which our middle to front can actually feel less nervous about losing a ball as they have a positional aware defender in place to mop up. But do under where your coming from with your opinion.

24 Oct 2025 11:49:59
I like Gogic, if he's allowed to play to his strengths then he's great.

Just like Souttar is for Scotland.

If Gogic was asked to play in a system that is almost designed to perfectly expose his weaknesses and minimise his strengths then I'm sure he'd look equally as broken as Souttar does in a Rangers jersey.

Our team needs to be rebuilt - not by signing a full new squad, but by investing time in the team to rebuild their confidence and find solutions to allow them to play to their individual strengths in order to start the process of creating a team again.

This is what Rohl has told us needs done, which is the polar opposite of everything Martin ever said. It's not going to be easy, but I'm extremely confident that he can do it.

24 Oct 2025 13:41:20
Love your positivity EHL.
I'm struggling to see where our goals are coming from in any turnaround. Chermiti is very raw and Miovski looks a shadow of player he was at Aberdeen.

24 Oct 2025 15:31:42
What is it with some of these new players? Are they terrified on a matchday?

For example Antman after being subbed, sitting on the bench biting his nails, just the the same as that other clown Aarons did a couple of weeks ago - it seemed that he was worried in case he was brought on as a sub.

Too many chicken-hearted new players is so evident in what we can all see on the pitch with our own eyes.

24 Oct 2025 09:34:57
Team for Sunday

Aarons
Djiga
N'siala
Cornelius
Raskin
Diomande (if available)
Curtis
Antman
Gassamma
Miovski

Antman played as a 10 for Nordsjaelland successfully.

24 Oct 2025 09:53:29
Aarons, Djiga should be returned to their clubs and never near the team.

24 Oct 2025 10:13:52
We are bad enough with 11 players, who plays in goal?

24 Oct 2025 10:16:36
This is the problem Livibear, the reason Tav and Souttar are in the team is because the alternatives are worse. It is a sorry state of affairs.

24 Oct 2025 10:29:12
Butland was meant to be in that team also.

24 Oct 2025 10:33:48
Tavs been our only half decent out field player this season and he's still been poor. No way should Aarons be playing in front of him.

24 Oct 2025 10:34:52
Curtis and Cameron and even rice should be given a chance, don't understand why Chermiti was picked, he clearly has shown nothing to merit this, hope Thelwell not pushing his inclusion, get rid of the loans in January if possible, sure they would be happy to go and the owners need to get the check book out.

24 Oct 2025 10:36:09
You might have gave us that team yesterday ASAP! 😂.

24 Oct 2025 10:38:30
Livi u could add Meghoma as well he's miles off being good enough. And moore.

24 Oct 2025 09:55:47
Agree, as I usually do with your posts Asa, only issue would be Djiga, he seems, for a better word, lost, at times! But who else?

24 Oct 2025 09:56:02
Forgot the goalie🤣👍.

24 Oct 2025 09:57:43
Aarons and Djiga are absolutely awful.

24 Oct 2025 10:01:57
Not a chance ….

24 Oct 2025 10:07:21
Djiga is twice the player Soutar is livi that is clear.
We have no other options tav needs removed from the team.

Does anyone know if young Hutton is ready for the first team?

24 Oct 2025 10:08:59
Djiga too lazy for me, fire Nsiala back in there, may as well, get Barron and Cameron starting with Curtis, give Gassama and Antman freedom to play as wingers and as #10s behind Miovski.

24 Oct 2025 10:57:48
Do you not think Bajrami could add to that team as well I don't think the guy has ever been given a proper chance at the club, asgaard has played more games back to back than he has.

24 Oct 2025 10:58:48
Djiga is twice the player of nobody! Not having that he's keech and doesn't like marking.

24 Oct 2025 11:06:01
We need to change a few but also build confidence and consistency.
We desperately need Sterling back I don't trust Tav at RB as he's still wanting to get forward he's shown in the past of being far better when he's not having to do as a back 3 with 2 6s gives us more of a solid core if bring back Danilo into the side for the weekend I think he's more suited to having someone closer to him, were struggling for goals so we've got to change our approach.

Butland

Tav
Souttar
Cornelius

Raskin
Cameron
Curtis
Bajrami
Gassama

Danilo
Miovski.

24 Oct 2025 11:07:40
From what I've seen of Hutton he won't make it at Rangers looks way out of his depth.

24 Oct 2025 11:13:49
Whilst he was poor last night i think Chermiti still gets involved a hell of a lot more than Miovski who barely has a touch of the ball or even less than Chermiti does. On the flip side to that Miovski has 2 goals.

Chermitti can win headers and take the ball down but he should have done better with the header last night. I'd say he needs a goal to settle in but Miovski has 2 and is still posted missing most times he's on the park.

i hope the lack of goals for the strikers is a team and creation issue as opposed to both aren't good enough. Hopefully the new manager changes it.

24 Oct 2025 11:24:05
Recommending that we willingly choose to play Aarons. I think I've just lost all respect for Asa.

24 Oct 2025 11:55:01
For Killie I'd go

Butland

Cornelius
Nsiala
Souttar
Aaron's

Bajrami
Barron
Cameron

Curtis
Miovski
Antman

Would like to see us rotate 4-3-3 and 3-4-3.

24 Oct 2025 15:24:41
Agreed EHL. Need to try something different. We literally can't keep playing the same 11 expecting better results.

24 Oct 2025 15:49:56
WishyBear, you're spot on, Tav has scored 4 goals, which is more than the tally that the rest of the team has contributed.

Absolutely disgraceful how these shi*bag shower of selfish duds are just going through the motions.

Good to see Tav finally letting rip at these imposters - it had to be said and I, for one, applaud him for that.

24 Oct 2025 16:14:25
Brave playing with no goalkeeper Asa😂

For me:
Butland
Barron
Souttar
Nsiala
Cornelius
Raskin
Dio
Asgard
Gassama
Miovski
Antman.

24 Oct 2025 09:33:28
Got to admit. Last night was the busiest I've seen this forum in a long time. 10 pages gone in a matter of hours. 😳.

24 Oct 2025 09:31:17
Can I just say what a difference having a manager that is willing to do things like publicly approach fans to apologise.

We would never have seen RM do anything like that.

24 Oct 2025 09:52:25
Got a feeling he will be over at the fans most weeks🥲.

24 Oct 2025 09:14:20
Certainly no new manager bounce by those players. Where was the effort and play from the 1st half at the weekend. I am also not one to put this all on Tav either but we do need someone on the pitch as a leader who takes the team by scruff of the neck to get us back in line. i won't mention the last and current captains off across the city but we don't have that.

Our league winning team had leaders across the pitch, Greggs, Davo, Jacko, Arfield, Goldson and they weren't even the captain. We have none of that now. It is truly pathetic and all of Thelwell's words on those press outings this week ring hollow.
