Marching On Together

They sold their best player, Bassey, and Kamara said publicly he thought rangers should be pushing on and building around him rather than cashing in. Michael Beale who came in never picked him.

He accused a Prague player of racial abuse which was initially disregarded. Only when Kamara got sent off in the return fixture for tw*tting same player did Rangers support him. The Pragueplayer got a 10 match ban. Kamara was supported at the next Old Firm game by both sets of players clapping him on the field.

Positionally, he played right middle in a 4-3-3, so he was more defensive. Rangers under Beale played a very slow build up looking to thread through to a typical CF. Kemal Roofe or Morelos. Morelos was bonkers and Roofe was, well, Roofe. That said, Beale won the league, so he must have been doing something right, but his football wasn’t exciting.

Kamara was always a smooth player with good positioning and not afraid to stick a foot in.

As MC says, their loss is our gain

Traffic was horrendous last night.

Had a bit of a problem with my ST too, worked eventually but not as efficiently as usual.

Anyway, hopefully catch up on Saturday

He'll be loving it at Elland Rd, right age, bang on price looking like a bargain, good temperament, hopefully not a moaner, definitely doesn't look like a shirker. I'm enjoying watching him, some of you should try that, even when you're at the game live, pick a player you're interested in and don't follow the action, follow him, even if he goes tert bog, you'll be surprised by just how much more interesting a game is, we've a good few worth tracking atm on and off the ball to see their overall effort and contribution, or lack of, and where they could be putting in more of a shift, either helping a team mate out which would contribute to them looking bad, or just lacking in effort all round.

Excellent tackle, excellent pass, excellent goal.
