Shortchanged again

We narrowly failed to win the SPL last year and have also failed to qualify for europe. What is the reaction of the board?

Bury their heads in the sand and hope it gets better next year. In my opinion Rangers were not a strong squad last year, but have strengthened this summer. We on the other hand have not. With the continued strategic appointment of brothers Thomson, Brines and worst of all Gollum, it would appear that we may as well concede the title now.

We have missed several chances to dominate the SPL for years to come and again we refuse to spend some decent funds in order to achieve this. As fans we should have let the board know that this is not acceptable, by witholding our season ticket renewals/applications. Maybe then they would get the message. We are completely taken for granted year in year out and I for one am sick of it.

only one has failed to impress out of 7, pretty similar to lenny is it not?

we are stronger, we will see this as the season goes on. Yes, i expected better, but the situation could have been a whole lot worse.

Celtic's signings havent impressed me, and uz are no better than last season.

Henrik "Let's stop talking about referees, already".

I'm sorry but last Sundays disallowed goal for Stokes ranks among some of the worst decisions I've seen. It's hardly been mentioned this week as Hooper scored and we won, but that little poultice of a referee cannot be allowed to get away with these constant errors, which it would appear far more often than not are against us. I'm sure if he could have found a dodgy way to disallow the the other goals, he would have.

Shocking ref all round but a definite bias against us

Honestly you need to watch some other games.

No bias just not very good he makes the same mistakes in all games.

Laff...

You have Lost Weiss,Miller,Diouf,bougy and Walter and plus Weir is a year older

You have replaced them with Ortiz,the yank at the back,Wallace and plus you have signed an aussie

Plus the 49yr old rookie is in charge.

Marvin I understand mate and I was raging with that decision. My mate actually had £10 at 63-1 for Stokes to score in the first fifteen minutes and he was raging. I just wanted to talk about the team this year and not the referees.

Weiss yes a miss but he was out for a large amount of the season
Diouf wont be missed we are stronger simply by him not being there
Bougie looks like we have improved on him with Goian
Weir Bocannegra and Perry plus Bartley are more than good enouigh

Add to that McKay Bodoya and Ortiz then its certainly no worse.

I would need to refer to the league table just to see how it gone so far though

McKay and Bedoya have not kicked a ball for Rangers yet, that I am aware of. It would be silly to judge whether they are good signings or not.

Miller left in jan n we coped well enough to win the league. Yes walter leaving is a blow, but i believe in ally. We have goian, bocanegra, bartley and perry at cb (better than last years options), wallace has come in so we have back up at lb, have brought in mckay/bedoya to midfield, with ortiz out wide (still think he'll come good when he settles). Only thing missing is ano striker, poss ano winger.

As for ur aussie comment, uz signed a honduran last season n look how that turned out

hence why they are the end of my list of like for like.

and Bedoya played 10 mins on Sunday though not enough to judge.

All animals are equal - you have predicted on Week 8 not Week 7. I've entered them, but you'll miss Week 7.

Hope you see this in time.
