RHM

Stan says he meant on loan

Another misquote then apparently

make note to self dont talk to the press

I really hate to see Stan getting abused. His recovery and the way we stuck by him was just about the only redeeming feature of the past horrible years. But while he might be having words put into his mouth, this isn't the first time something questionable has been attributed to him. I've no idea what he's really saying and why, and I hope there's no bitterness on his part, but I have a horrible feeling that we're on the road to an irrevocable split.

As for Rushian, I can see the attraction of Rangers - regular football in front of 40,000, decent money and the chance to play in Europe. I'm also perhaps seeing why three managers haven't given him a chance since his debut.

What else has he said?

He's talked about being let go by Di Matteo without explanation a couple of times.

Stan says he meant on loan

But he isnt up for loan by the club. Why is he even talking about him? Its none of Stans business and he is under no obligation to talk to the press at all.

Luckily there isn't a like button for the threads otherwise I would spend  half my day liking peoples comments

Petrov handles himself extremely badly - I want nothing more to do with him in association with our great club.

Exactly

After the snidiness when he wasnt offered a contract he should have learned to keep his gob shut and never recommend any more players to the club. In fact he doesnt need to be anywhere near the club

RHM is playing under a manager who hasn't got a great history of bringing youth through and prefers a fat Gabby on the pitch who he thinks is playing great football

there is no wonder why he's not signing any contract

[cdbearsfan]

If Petrov has just got the wrong end of the stick, hadn't realised that his contract was due up and thought that we were considering a loan, it's not nearly as bad.

Hopefully it is just a misunderstanding and I'll choose to believe that because the alternative, that Petrov has become a cock, is unpleasant.

This is not aimed at you in particular but to everyone that keeps saying that. He has just taken a young goalkeeper on loan and has given good support to Jack. Maybe he hasn't played youths at other clubs because they weren't good enough.

Plus it is unlikely Warburton will be at Rangers long-term.

His stock as a manager is high. Do even vaguely well at Ibrox and -combined with his stint at Brentford- some of the bigger sides in the Championship or lower half of the Prem will no doubt be in for him.

If the Russian does well up there n'all, he'll most likely end up back down south in the not-too distant, maybe even with MW.

There's always a difference in playing for a manager who actively wants you compared to one who merely inherited you.

Not saying RHM is definitely away, but it's only right he weighs all this up. He'd prob have less to consider if he had been given even the occasional run-out against, oh, I dunno- B-lose, Brighton, Leedzzz and Norwich, for example.

[achilles]

This is ridiculous, if he was that good, contract or no contract, Bruce would have played him!

He has potential at this point in time, that is all!

[cdbearsfan]

His stock isn't high. Rangers fans hate him because they're nowhere near Celtic in the league.

[cdbearsfan]

The only thing I can say in RHM's favour is that maybe he has heard Bruce's comments eulogising over that ****** Agbonlahor and decided he is never going to get a fair chance and would be better off elsewhere.

Bruce did a good job bringing Henderson through at Sunderland, making him a first team regular at 19.

He was off injured for a few weeks at the back end of last year.

Agreed
