Personal special one for me was coming back from being abroad for a long time in 1993 and going to West Ham for my first game back see us beat them 4-0 with Les running rampant
If we’re loaning someone in at centre back we need a Ryan Nelsen / Steve Cook wizened old pro, no point taking a gamble on another kid who’ll just walk away in the summer anyway.
What’s Chris Mepham up to these days?
Or we need to start training Field to play more games at centre back, he’s looked good there
I’m in the same boat with my two - they’ve seen some right dross in their first few games. Thank God for Jimmy Dunne and the Preston game which seems to have bought some more time!
Given Jimmy Dunne snuffed out their best player in the home game, why move him to centre back? Marti’s selections are sometimes impossible to understand
Without Cook and Morrison we suddenly look weak as piss
I reckon the Norwich game will be tasty - they seemed a surprisingly nasty bitter team and was surprised at their lack of discipline at our’s. Shame Cook will be out it seems, his type of game, but will be a good test of our new defensive spine. Field seems to be stepping up in the shithouse stakes and I hope we batter them again.
Some really great performances in that game - Smyth, Varane, Morgan - but Jimmy Dunne was fkin immense.
I think we need to come to terms with him as weird hybrid of right back and target man centre forward and credit Marti with inventing a brand new position
He’s been brilliant in this mini revival and deserves a lot of credit.
Yes his final ball is erratic but if it wasn’t - as the saying goes - he wouldn’t be playing for us.
But he’s just scored a goal from 50 yards to win us a point in a game where we were getting battered, he set up the crucial equaliser today and ran Preston so ragged they changed their defence at half time, his defensive work is tireless and he’s a good lad.
The option of him, Saito, Chair and Dembele running at defences for 90 mins as starters and off the bench is pretty exciting. And Smyth deserves to start on his performances right now
They were by some distance the worst team I’ve seen at Rangers for a while, although we managed to go toe to toe with them in being crap for the first 45 mins.
Mad the way that managers are no longer allowed to manage their way out of a bad spell even if they’ve built up credit.
We were close with Marti and lo and behold look what’s happened.
Smyth has been an integral part of this backs to the wall revival - has defended brilliantly, run himself into the ground and while his end product is wildly inconsistent he’s a 100% starter for me at the moment
Delighted for him with that goal. He made a hard finish look easy. Just totally amazed that for the first time all season he didn’t go down when the keeper brushed past him
