Barry Ferguson has been sharing the secrets to winning the league with the Daily Record.
Basically it amounts to pure getting stuck in, playing for the beloved Castore jersey and winning football matches.
Ferguson has been out of football management for two years since being mutually consented by Alloa, these days he shares his wisdom and insights with Go Radio and the Daily Record.
In 2003 he left Rangers for Blackburn Rovers, after returning two years later he again walked away in 2009 for Birmingham City.
But for anyone doubting just how big a Rainjurz man wee Barry is he chipped in this early reminder in is Record column of his credentials:
The domestic title has always been what got me out of bed in the morning. It’s why you pull your boots on for the first day of pre-season. It’s the reason these Rangers players have given their blood and sweat and tears to claw their way back into contention.
Into his stride Fergie adds:
If I was in that dressing room – and you’ve no idea how much I wish I was – I’d break what’s left of the season down into two blocks.
First, I’d look at the next two weeks before the split and four massive league games. Deal with Hibs at Ibrox, win the biggest game of the season at home to Celtic eight days later and follow that up with wins away to Dundee and Ross County. Take 12 points from these games and you’ll go into the post split fixtures in an incredible position. It really is that simple.
So football is about winning matches, now we all know.
After more fire and brimstone Fergie finishes up with a comment that Jock Wallace would have been proud of:
Lundstram is one of those guys who thrives on the pressure and the responsibility of representing the club. And now that this campaign is coming down to the nitty gritty, I fully expect him to lead the charge from the front.
Big clubs demand big players with big character. And, when everything is about to go on the line, it’s guys like Lundstram you want standing beside you in the trenches.
Wallace had two stints managing Rangers, in 1988 he was escorted out of Ibrox by club stewards.
Barry is a FUD…. NEXT !!
It really is beyond pathetic . A shameful example of how low the sports media in this country has sunk. Any celtic fan who still buys this sorry excuse of a newspaper needs to have a serious look in to what they are funding. . A sevco propaganda rag.
Think baz takes time out of his colouring in books to give us his insightful knowledge in FK all , he’s as bright as a blackout
‘Standing in the trenches with you’ – Just what the fcuk is it with that mob and war and war jargon (until of course the squaddies are deprived of vital guns to fund the best players for Sevco instead)…
They undoubtedly love Trump – If he gets in there might well be no Sevco, far less The The ‘Rangers’ nor the most successful football club in the world after Al Ahly of Egypt (That would be Celtic of course) !
Mind not long ago he got the hump because the hun phoned up that radio show and called him a cheerleader
Truth hurts
So, Lundstrum, wee Barry and Jock Wallace were all standing together in the trenches, all helmeted up.
And from out of No-Man’s Land a voice is heard shouting
“Tommy, We Have A New Weapon To Combat Your Orangw Sashes and ‘No Surrender’!
It is called
“The German Machine Gun!”
“Okay Lads, Let’s Go!”
“No Surrender!”
Rat-Tat-Tat-Tat-Tat-Tat-Tat!
Silence!
