Dalgety Bay TA Posted April 18, 2018 Share Posted April 18, 2018 11 hours ago, Parklife said:Totally correct. It was 100% an ego thing. I mind McCoist boasting in interviews about signing "Hearts' best player, Motherwell's best player and Killie's best player". As you say, the smart move was to build a philosophy and style of play throughout the club. A few Championship level players would've supplemented their young players and given them the protection from the lower league haddies, enabling them to play. Instead they signed Fran Sandaza and Kevin Kyle on huge wages and developed very few young players and, by most accounts, played terrible football. I agree with all your comments. However part of the issue was they had McCoist in charge who wouldn’t know a philosophy and play style if they came up and patted him on the held. He only knew the old Rangers way of signing the biggest names you can for as much money as you can afford. Or not afford but still spend anyway.

Is he trying to get himself into the frame to be the next Rangers manager? I listen to Radio Scotland through a phone app at my work.

Squirrelhumper Posted April 19, 2018 Share Posted April 19, 2018 I like big Lee, he's a great big guy. I'd love him to get the Rangers job as the Killie job was far, far too big/soon for him so can only imagine what would happen at Ibrox.

Im slightly ashamed to admit, I listen to a fair bit of Talksport at work, and the names Jim White and Alan Brazil are touting are ridiculous. Using the patter above. Stuart McCall, Ally Mccoist, he who has no surname... Its frightening how out of touch they are with Scottish football. Twice this week I’ve heard the “Scottish Football needs a strong Rangers” line.

Not sure what you mean by deplores tan coloured individuals but it wasn't Rangers fans that threw bananas at opposition players. If you want to have a go a racism then you're looking in the wrong place. The other 2, sadly I have no real argument for. Hence the reason I don't want a Rangers man as the manager.

In my opinion the TAMB needs to go back to what it says on the can. Too many people use it as a way of spouting hatred about other clubs and fans. Is this a Scotland thing or a medium to let small minded people the likes of yon parklife fella just spout his hatred of rangers? When you get rid of the likes of that hatred stuff and tell them to f off and go to their own club websites this could be a place for Scotland supporters again. I only watch it now and again and so sad to see the hatred that arises from the same folk on here. If they were at a Scotland trip they would not have the guts to spout out.

Gretna didn't even spend anywhere near the money Rangers did. Paying guys like Kevin Kyle 5k or whatever is fucking suicidal. Livingston and Gretna are hardly examples of financial wisdom, both went bust stuffing folk for thousands. Charlatan Milleson was paying 4 figure wages per week to players in the 2nd division.

You know better than me Flure but I’m not sure it has. I remember there being club debates but I don’t remember terms like ‘hun cunts’ being thrown about pretty much every post. Maybe as you suggest, people had a better grasp of diction so were able to get their points across without resorting to that sort of stuff. I see Parklife mentioned again but I think he gets picked on for the wrong things a lot of the time. He’s not one that constantly insults fellow posters. Whether people like the way he puts his point across or not, it’s usually made well, is pretty accurate, fair and difficult to disagree with.
