  1. given I made it up I'm either some sort of Nostradamus or I've got Rangers' fanbase on strings.

  2. It's also worth remembering that the manager has seen fit to bring him back. You'd think we'd been forced to take him with some of the patter on here. Shite being spun about how many games he has to play. Absolute nonsense made up on the internet. It's a no-lose situation for us. We've basically got a player back that we've already been paid a fee for. If anything it's the Rangers fans who should be asking questions, not us. Hopefully he does well and manages to forge that relationship with Turnbull again, nab a few goals, get us some points. If he doesn't, we'll send him back to Rangers and he'll be their problem again.

  3. I completely disagree, I thought he was very good, and would thrive with a fully fit Turnbull in behind him.

  4. So you don't know the details of the deal, but you think it's ridiculous. I would be surprised if the loan isn't anything other than a standard deal. We pay a percentage of his wage and he doesn't play against the loan team. As I've said many times, I'm 100% against loans to teams in the same division, but it is what it is. "Playing guarantees" are just fantasy that people like to spout on the internet. Rotherham cut short his loan deal last season, so I don't see why we couldn't do the same if needed. He's back now, and has coaches that know him - so I'd rather he developed and did a jib than failed so we can say "telt ye". Time will tell.

  5. I agree, if any club were able to get him back on track it’s us. We all need to get behind him now he’s back, booing is not going to end up helping.

  6. Yeah I'm basing this on playing the same way as last season with the lone striker and 2 wingers. Not sure how else we would plan to go next season.

  8. If all else fails we can just blame his nasty, evil agent for tricking the lad into signing for Rangers.

  9. I have no problems with him.being back and if he reproduces his early form then happy days. I know some fans aren't happy but at end of day he will be wearing well top for the time being and giving him pelters isn't going to help anyone. Yes he could have handle things better but he's a young lad and I am sure we all done daft things when younger, I mean look at me....i told honking jokes when i was younger and now look at me.........hmmmmmmmm ....COYW

  10. I think you’re been slightly harsh, he’s a player the management team know and will still be available for plenty of games, if he does end up a key player then he’s been doing a job in those other games. We will only be playing a part of his wages and if he impresses so much that he goes back in January we get a cut of any transfer fee should he move on from Rangers. For what it’s worth I don’t see him ever been a Rangers regular so who knows he may actually sign a permanent deal with us at some stage if things go well. Regarding the move to Rangers I think the club played a blinder, they obviously knew giving a long term deal too early was a risk based on a few first team appearances after less than spectacular loan moves and if we did indeed receive 400k it’s actually more than he’s worth in my view. I personally have my reservations about his attitude but time will tell.

  11. The January recall clause is pretty standard, and something we tend to do with the players we loan out, makes plenty of sense. I don’t like how his move from us came about, but I’m also not deluded enough to think players owe us anything or that they don’t support other teams. I’m not a football player, but if I was offered multiples of my current wage to do the same job somewhere else, I’m taking that. The reason I’m not particularly enthused by this move is that he was pretty poor towards the end for us and hasn’t done anything since his move, so there’s a concern he’s been found out. But he’s still young and if he can recreate his purple patch, even for a short period, he could be a good signing, so he will get the same benefit of the doubt as any other signing. During this period of global weirdness, bringing in someone who has only been away from the club for a year since he was a wean, who has a good relationship with our other youngsters, may actually be beneficial.

  14. Agree with the above, definitely a player there. one on one I was always confident he would score. I loved that 2nd goal away to Dundee. in fact, that was just a cracking day out.

  15. Calm down. Long wasn't that good. We need better and hopefully have it in Watt/White/AN.Other who is not Long.

  16. Our business this preseason appears to be excellent. Long re-signing would be the icing on the cake.
