Be happy you're getting the attention. God knows you try hard enough for it.

You really seem to dislike Lblock, not sure if there is history between you two?
Is it because he has a different view from you, why the jibe about ODB which you got so wrong! Most people would have back tracked or said sorry but it seems you have labelled him a racist without knowing the fella. The old R bomb is such an easy label to throw around just make sure it is used in the right context.
Anyway, peace and love to all my fellow R's whatever your race or faith may be?

Eh? He's just a self consciously contrived persona on an internet message board. What's to dislike?
I'm sure in real life he's quiet as a mouse. Most people who act like that online are.

Busted!
I'm actually just kike Kirk St Mortiz on Dear John (One for the real old skool BBC comedy club there)
On here just an attention seeking tvvat wearing the white suit and a medallion But really at home, in real life I'm more like the Ralf Drings he's bullies
Cherish and enjoy life.... this ain't no dress rehearsal
If we get overrun by Newcastle and out pressed by Preston, I don't see how Faurlin would have been any better in those particular games. For all his passing ability, he had no pace and the turning circle of an oil tanker. His time had gone.

I think, and noelmc articulated this well on page 2 of this thread, what was missing was a central midfielder who could play a forward (or even sideways pass) without having to take 2/3 touches. Against Newcastle, I think possession was 50/50 but because Henry and Cousins aren't great or even good passers of the ball and Newcastle pressed well - most of those passes were between the back 4 and the holding 2 midfielders.
In the first half, Bidwell was making some good runs on the left flank, but our central midfielders either: 1. Didn't see the run, 2. Weren't able to pull off the pass, 3. To be in a position to make the pass, had taken too many touches and the ball was no longer on. This happened 5/6 times. Faurlin has the vision, technique and touch to pull off those balls.
Faurlin's lack of pace was obviously a big negative, but neither Shelvey or Hayden were offering any third man runs off the front 2, so I'm not sure if he'd have been particularly exposed defensively.
I don't think Faurlin would've made much of a different to the result on Tuesday. But in general I'm concerned, and it's one I've had since the beginning of summer, that Rangers don't have anyone capable of controlling a game. I hope Borysiuk can be that man, but he looked like a superior Henry from the Rochdale game.

The clouds disperse. I never was any good at fathoming out acronyms. Thank you sir.

This was after two career threatening injuries, the bloke was being looked at by far bigger and successful clubs when he was in his prime playing for us. Gutted he never got the chance as I thought he was a great player even after those horrific injuries.
Do you know what, I'm still going to say he was the best in that position since the days of the Crab Ray Wilkins.

I agree with this. He could pass a ball as well as anyone but other parts of his game were really limited even before the injuries.
