I remember a similar thread about Murphy

likewise he needs to sharpen up his corner delivery if hes going to be the right hand corner specialist but the rest of his game has been solid this season , he went missing briefly last year, but most certainly a first pick every week ( as the 100 games is testament to!)

all our signings have been the easy option, even the goalkeeper coach something to do with working within the limits (good financial management) of the club and that includes the managers appointment

whats wrong Steelboy? you not happy with the signing, dont feel its good value for your cash input to the club noticed some negative vibes from your postings

I'd never have put Stuart McCall down as a loser but hey everybody surprises you now and again

Harsh but maybe a lot of truth in there Dave, maybe all cannot be blamed on individuals re- the defence being awful, I actually thought Hammell and Hately had good games (so do many others in the MOTM thread) and Craggs and Hutch had hell of a lot to deal with in the match, but 3 goals against I'd tend to agree that the defence must have been awful but I'd go with how we were setup and asked to play over the individuals being at fault I've now watched the match twice and on those viewing as well as last week I think we are starting to see players in the team, use Humphrey as a last option, especially as the game wore on, hence the frustration of many, the boys got heart and desire to do well but something else is missing at present, Ironically the one good cross I remember him making led directly to the 3rd goal midfield (jennings) too many times were simply by-passed by Rangers due to the gaping spaces left around and behind them due to the advancing fullbacks and Law/Lasley pushing up at the same time Forwards as you described overall the management team need to instill a desire and passion as well as the tactics to win or draw!, and up to during and even after the game or any others against them Mr McCall and co. don't seem to believe we should ever do it

Seriously? Hately our right back? sold the second goal? a goal that stemmed from our LEFT wing, was worked into the centre circle and then passed out into a gaping space where our LEFT back or his cover should have been. and during this move, Hately was the only one that got a challenge in,after busting a gut to get to Ortiz, as all the others watched it developing around them. he has his flaws but fuk me not covering the left hand side of the team isn't one of them Looney isn't anywhere near strong enough

inspired performance by 'Samson' for ST Mirren stopped him scoring

so many players could and should have stopped the ball before it got anywhere near Randolph for the second from Hammells lazy collection of Laws slack pass, whilst advanced up the park, to Law not filling in for Hammell at LB , to Jenno being left facing off two of them at the edge of the centre circle to Craggs being sucked towards the middle Leaving Lafferty even tho Hately had powered back to challenge Ortiz, right down to Murphy not having the legs/desire to cover all the way back with Lafferty

he'll come good on the goals front, but somebody better sit him down and show him the first goal back if he's got a man to mark at setpieces he needs to mark them, and not get blinkered on the ball, he totally lost his man and got in between Hutch and Jelavic and knocked it down onto Naismiths head and it went on from there again around 35min mark he left his man free and followed Jelavic blocking Hutch. a point of learning for the coaches more than huge criticism of the players

Need to find our strongest 11 for at least two different formations for league games so a little bit of rotation but not carte blanche the changes are obvious for anyone thats been looking in, players on the bench must be getting very frustrated to see individuals delivering very little in 90mins wouldn't mind seeing Hollis get a start either only to keep his sharpness and motivation up

Stevie Hammell

he's pumping yir maw the now, he'll be along shortly

Lasley back in , Forbes drops out

Nearly forgot about this, 1st Christmas gift sorted

Stevie Saunders coming to a screen near you sometime..........

It's not rocket science to work out why

Rangers team playing with 3 up front? more chance it'll be 4/5/1 so stop the supply into Jelavic and we're in with a shout, especially after Davis gets sent off as It happens a draw will be just fine, but we shouldn't start the match with that as the only goal.

Motherwell 4 (Murphy,Higdon,Hutchinson & Lasley) Rangers 0 (Davis SO)

NO check the official site looks like phone orders made on Saturday will can be collected on sunday up till noon , but no direct selling on Sunday

an article about Marshalls return on the BBC clicky

3min 55sec to 4mins whatever happened to the 'Bugle sounding charge'

he frustrated me, although it's hard to say if he was worse than many others the one thing i picked up on at the game, was that he warned a number of St Mirren players, whilst I didn't notice him being as lenient with the 'Well players. Consistency is what they need to learn
