Spot of bother now........ 17:55 - Feb 4 with 33473 viewskropotkin41

16 games left and not a great selection of fixtures, starting next Saturday with Yorkshire's answer to Barcelona.

At first glance I reckon 15 more points............ last season that would have put us in 21st!!

A few more weeks of bad form - even with good play - and things will start to look properly bleak.

Yeah I hear you, we're shit.

We've been shit for 7 years though, and not sure we can pin that on Holloway.

Change was made three months ago yes but from decent to worse. I very much doubt mr hollows abilities. The footy might and occasionally do look better but the defence is still a circus, midfiel lacks anykind of creativity and the attacking force is a laughing stock. The players are good enough to fight for places 10 to 14 in championship table. The manager is not.

il throw in my two penneth worth and say that we were never out of danger , all of these people on here saying we will finish comfortable mid table were living in a dream world , our problem is we don't have a goal scorer, sylla , smith and Washington all good and hard working but not clinical enough in front of goal , we have played well but if we don't take our chances then you don't pick up points
also for all of the people who were saying we should have stuck with JFH did you actually go to any games ?
the football was the worst ive seen in 32 years of going to Rangers , we had one tactic ie play one up top and hope for a set piece , we would still be in this position with him here , Olllie for me tried to press Huddersfield on Saturday they are a team who likes to play from the back so his tactic of playing Mackie, washington, smith up top was to try and close them down and make them make mistakes,
id rather watch us play 3 up top at home than seeing long balls up to polter to try and make something happen ie Preston and reading home games
it didnt work Saturday but we nearly and should have got a point in the end against a good team in form , keep the faith people

And Bowles is onside, Swinburne has come rushing out of his goal , what can Bowles do here , onto the left foot no, on to the right foot That’s there that’s two, and that’s Bowles Brian Moore

When was the decent bit? All season we've been winning about 1 in every 4 games and that's continued under Holloway. He hasn't turned a mid table team into a poor one, he took over a struggling side and we're still struggling.

The players may be good enough for a higher position but under 2 managers this season they haven't produced enough to achieve that.

He took over a side that was starting to struggle and now we're struggling harder.

The win ratio has slipped from 5 in 16 to 4 in 15, but the draw ratio dipped too (those single points still add up). Loss ratio has gone up, but that's bad, right? You know the points per game stuff. Goal difference is worse. We've gone from 17th and 6 points away from both play-offs and relegation to 19th and 18 points off play-offs and 5 points off relegation, with three teams below us now having a game in hand.

Hasselbaink: 5-5-6, gd -5
Holloway: 4-2-9, gd -9

I don't see that as equivalence.

i don't get this idea of yours that we should all stay quiet because Holloway was appointed 3 months ago. Are you really saying the longer he is in charge regardless of the results the less we should criticise. I did not want him appointed and I have seen nothing to change that view. If you are happy with the current state of the club then that is fine I have a different opinion simple as that. When he was appointed we did not get a new manager lift on the contrary we suffered a dip. I admit I wanted JFH sacked but his record was better than Holloways. He has taken us backwards which cannot be denied so on this message board I reserve the right to criticise, at LR I will support the team.

Good grief you really are a crushing bore but each to their own. I suppose taking on the mantle of the boards arbiter of what can and cannot be discussed does give you a sense of importance.

Be honest, a relegations scrap is more exciting than 12th with no hope either way, as long as the outcome is favourable.

A 92nd minute winner v Norwich from Nedum Onouha to keep us up would be nice.

You do realise you and others wanting managers sacked every 6 months is part of the problem and why were in the mess were currently in

The good thing is at least we have a proper Rangers fella in charge who has done it before with Rangers and will do it again.

If it means going down then so be it
