Signing a pacey, counterattacking forward when you play against teams that sit in against you suggests a problem with your Clubs scouting and the managements thought process in signing him But, but.... if O'Halloran can succeed at St Johnstone there should be no excuse for him failing at Rangers, right?............. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I never said that. I happen to agree that being at a bigger Club brings different pressures as well as playing in a team that plays a completely different style of football. I wanted to know how much of a chance he's really been given. Starts, run of games etc as opposed to 5,10,15 mins here and there as a sub. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

No matter what Caixinho has made anera of this and you need to get rid of him pronto. A total diddy. I've been away and not watched the past couple of games so I find it difficult to comment. I do find it interesting the Garner, Waghorn, Wee Barrie and MOH are doing well in their new clubs. It's cheap posting to say 'they weren't good enough for Rangers' but there is also some truth in this. How is it they can perform elsewhere but not at Ibrox? 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

From the stands you get the sense if a player has been given a fair chance though. My opinion, and I'm sure most other Rangers fans would agree, he had enough chances to impress and didn't. I was making excuses for him for the longest time. But yeah, at some point you just have to concede it was a poor signing. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Drew Brees Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 At least John Barnes could rap, eh? He was also a better manager than Hedgerow Pedro. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think they may be doing well at their new clubs due to Pedro's lack of man management skills. I could be wrong though. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

RandomGuy. Posted August 25, 2017 Share Posted August 25, 2017 Baffled by the comments of Rangers fans who say we don't play against teams camped in, I doubt most could name our strongest eleven yet the all know exactly how our games go. We'll just ignore the fact that every goal O'Halloran has scored for us this season has featured at least five opposition players goalside of him.. He played 1,911 minutes (21 games) for them, and got three goals and six assists, meaning he contributed a goal or assist every 200 minutes. It's hardly brutal stuff. Worth noting Rangers fans still claim he's a striker who's best at getting in behind defences, despite watching him for two years, he's never been that player, I think you all just created a vision of him in your mind that he was never going to match. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Not like The Rangers fans to not have a fucking clue about the teams and players who play in the same league as them. They better hope their coaching staff have more of a clue or they may even struggle to make the Europa first round qualifiers this season. 0 Quote Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
