Rolling hIlls Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Got an economics class tomorrow morning. But the famous Glasgow Rangers are watching the league from the top. Glory glory Glasgow Rangers. Stand on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I just don’t think he’s a very good manager and without suggesting Rodgers was some kind of Guardiola figure, Lennon is without doubt a step down the way. He’s tactically naive and his man management is less than stellar. It was clear back in May that when Celtic won the Cup and the bar I was in (when the local CSC meet) was bouncing then when the news came through it took seconds for the place to become as flat as a witch’s tit. Something which, as I understand it, was repeated in Celtic bars up and down the country. In addition most Rangers fans I am friendly with were pretty happy and immediately feeling confident about the forthcoming season. There must be a reason for that and for me the appointment was made in the same vein as that of Solskjaer at Man Utd - knee jerk and made with emotion rather than with the head. The board made a massive mistake appointing Lennon and the GB banner about gambling 10IAR to save a few quid was spot on. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Celtic are laying down and don’t want 10 in a row. At the board level I would consider rangers and Celtic as the same entity. One hand washes the other. The appointment of Lennon told you this. Rangers winning the league is good for the independence movement. So let’s hope they win it and 9 more. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Mox Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 Lennon has good players at his disposal and they will cover up his inability as a manager more often than no, particularly in the league. However, teams require direction and an identity, we have none of those and a decent start to the season doesn't disguise that. We've got a striker up front who is sensational with his feet and we've spent all season lumping the ball upto him. There's a title race on this season, make no mistake and it's primarily down to the fact we are being managed by a complete fucking idiot and it will all come to a head at some point this season.

You’ve hit the nail on the head. If we get 9 it’ll be despite Lennon not because of him. We won’t get 10. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
sbcmfc Posted October 6, 2019 Share Posted October 6, 2019 As good as Motherwell have been this season, all this talk of a title race is a bit premature. 😜 (Getting more and more disappointed at losing to Ross county at home from a winning position as the weeks go on.

I do think Lennon is a downgrade from Rodgers but is he really that bad? Gerrard makes plenty of tactical mistakes too, so it might be a bit of a topsy turvy season for a while yet.

We're a Greg Stewart away from being a better team than last year IMO. Goals are a problem as we can't keep Brophy fit but we rarely look like conceding. We've had 7 clean sheets in our last 8 games. I reckon we'll be top 6 but getting a striker in Jan will make or break whether we can push for Europe. Fans are 100% behind the manager though - the xenophobic Scottish press have created a real siege mentality both on and off the pitch. Would be lying if I said I'm not enjoying it! Missed Tynecastle at the weekend as I was on holiday but just under 1,000 away fans paying £29 a ticket shows the fans are right behind him.

I feel more in common with a Liverpool resident than most other English cities. They’ll be the Everton fans then. As mentioned earlier Liverpool supporters have this sense of entitlement, I work beside 3 of them and several drink in my local pub. Horrible blinkered self pitying tw@ts every single one of them.

kumnio Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 As JJ says, Everton fans are good guys, Liverpool fans are absolute scum. Whenever I’ve been down to Liverpool, and it’s a great city, but their supporters really let themselves down with their misplaced arrogance and self entitlement.

Farcity Posted October 7, 2019 Share Posted October 7, 2019 Most of them are cunts, I agree. All this "we" and ending correspondence with YNWA and coming out with "Manc scum". Cringeworthy. It's a team who play in a foreign league for fuck sake and the majority of them have never been to a game in their life. Cunts. Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah, be interesting to see where we are at the end of October, we’ve got Aberdeen (h), Rangers (a) then Killie (h) could easily take 6 points from those three, but equally take none... I watched Rangers v Livi and think Devante Cole can get at the Rangers centre halves. Aberdeen will get better, and Killie are obviously very hard to beat....
