Hello everyone! 2024 ends the way we've spent 2024.. frustrated and annoyed! Baffling changes again from Clement and even worse performances, what and who stood out to you? Also happy new year when it comes to you & your loved ones! Have a good few days..I'll see you on the 2nd!
Clement must have the record for most amount of half time changes in a year, tells you everything you need to know about his selection and management in general. I need him away for my mental health
We need a manager that can set a team up from the back to defend and won’t be scared to drop certain names like king tav who’s lifted as many trophies in 10 years that my 5 year old daughters lifted in 6 months in dancing embarrassing get them all out sick of it dessers cracks an egg and misses the frying pan he’s a clown and dowell reminds me of an old lolly pop lady at end of my street that sais to kids just run across the road when you don’t see a car coming because she can’t be annoyed to walk 5 steps onto the road joke man talking about joke robin propper a never fought a would of missed Kirk broadfoot so much enough said clement will be sacked after Celtic game so they have to get next appointment right pish !!!!
As a Celtic fan it’s weird to say this but Rangers are currently my favourite team. I love watching them. I wish Santa Claus had brought me a Gers top I could wear to fives.
Most Rangers fans would agree , a subjective decision for sure but we would have been angry if it was us .For the record there is no equivalence between that and not being awarded a penalty for being fouled in the area.

@cjnovo992 I approve this message. 1st order of service, inswinging corners with big boy headers. P.s bring back the career mode series. Give us some joy of what Rangers can be like in an alternate universe.
Once he saw how bad the team truly was… he realized he’d have to take a lot of criticism to do what was needed. And he still has a half dozen players to get rid of… including Tav! BTW- We’ll see the worst of Tav again… as Nana’s out and Sterling is needed in the middle.
Can’t even be angry anymore.. I go into every game wondering what else Clement can possibly do to try and get the sack and pick the players who aren’t good enough steal a wage. If he has to rotate can he not bring in some younger players who will at least give more effort and care more? Oh wait just like Igamane they aren’t ready?
Fair play to yourself, CJ, and other Rangers fans who will tune in on Thursday. I have absolutely no interest anymore with this team. We should be flattered other people think Scottish football is a 2 horse race. It is show jumping 🐎
@ryanellis9325 quite a few of us watch this. CJ is so rational and balanced in his analysis you could close your eyes and wouldn't know he was a bluenose unless he specifically mentioned it. If Kris Boyd's meltdown's weren't so entertaining I'd take CJ over him on Sky pretty much any day of the week.
when you said "a nice wee easy game" at the end and reached for a drink I was surprised to see something non alcoholic and not a litre of JD which is what I'm relying on to get me through Rangers this festive period
That starting 11 is just the manager picking names out a hat and hoping for the best. Looks like 11 players who have never met each other and asked to go win a game of football

See it's a wee bit more than that, but you can't wrap your head around it, tired players lead to injuries, tired muscles lead to injuries and detachments, strained ligaments lead to injuries, that's why we have a squad , our players should be able to come in and out of the team, it's the players jobs to be fit enough to step into the fray at a moments notice its why we pay big wages not only to our players but our backroom staff, the manager gets a lot more data on his players these days than they did twenty year ago , the trackers they wear show how the energy levels dip on players .
1 point from a possible 6 over the festive period is shocking, to say the least. I think we're stuck with the Bald Belgium Bletherer at least until the end of the season. We are a mess and haven't progressed over the last 3 seasons.
Just a couple of weeks ago I was looking forward to the 2nd... am now seriously considering getting so drunk before the game that they don't let me in and take my season ticket off me. Defo more labour than love at the moment. We all deserve better. Happy New Year to all when it comes- may we PLEASE start looking forward to watching our team play again!
I am a celtic fan. I find Clements tactics and press conferences really weird. Have Rangers not got young players that play cb or rw as there natural position? I am an old Celtic fan and years ago i worked with Portuguese guys. One of their teams Porto had just got a new manager Jose Mourinho. When Mourinho came in he got rid of all the older players and brought threw young players. The first season Porto won nothing but the next season they won everything and kept winning his Young players like Figo, etc got into the Portuguese under 21 team and beat Brazil in the under 21 world cup final. To me what mourinho did at Porto is a rebuild. Rangers are 14 points behind if you bring young hungry players threw and give them game time what have you got to lose. In January get rid of the duffers bring in a few solid players to build the spine of team and try and have pressure for places. Tavienier know his position is not under and maybe this is the same for Butland.
I'm a 70yo blue nose. Great comments. My how our clubs have fallen from yesteryear. Obviously, ours more than yours. We used to drive each other on. Us winning the cup winners cup was because we needed to match the Lisbon lions. I feel sorry for the younger fans.
Peter, I'm an old Gers fan, and I've been bleating for youth players to start coming into the A team , seeing that Dowell and Propper look so shaky. It'll take a real general to chuck oot the deadwood, and rebuild as should be done, not just spending money on cheap imports.
@@donaldcunningham2386 Clement keeps going on about his new team. Most of the players are older ones who were there before he started. Most of Clements signings are not to be trusted.
Can’t stand matondo tbh, laughing when he messes up but like dessers, it’s not funny and should be called out for it. Look at igamane he scored and was no happiness in his face just lets keep going.

His time is up surely? ...whats scary is January is on our doorstep and would you trust clement with any funds? ..how zak lovelace cant get a chance before keiran dowell is beyond me man
We have a director of football who takes care of recruitment issues it's not Clements job to sign players , he won't make the big calls, drop butland put him on the transfer list he's fucking awful , get that shite hawk of a captain out the squad he's hopeless, a new manager would need to make those decisions, but they won't , 3managers in 3 seasons, players who still can't do the basics, = it's the players they are not fit to wear the jersey
To not pick his strongest team in the last two games because he has an eye on the Celtic game has now made that game practically irrelevant. I thought he finally got things right a few games ago, but he just went backwards again. Even if we win on the 2nd, we are still a whopping 11 points behind. That’s why Celtic can afford to rest Mcgregor today. If anyone thinks there’s anything left to salvage this season, they need sectioned. These away stats are shocking by the way. What a disgrace. Clement needs gone.
I am done with the waffler. This is Caixinha levels of regression. Whoever appointed him and Beale better not have a say in the next man. Enough is enough. Time to sack Clement. This is now torture.
Can the Rangers fans please not turn up for the old firm game. This would be a real protest. No violence, no foul language. Just empty seats and empty tills at Ibrox would be enough to force change.
That would be impossible for the narrow minded and bigoted Sevco supporters to turn up without the usual hate filled sectarian 17th century bullshit songs which bring shame on Scotland and the Scottish people.
The team looks like a group of guys down the park for a kick about. No organisation, no style of play, even after over a year in charge for Clement. Keeps picking the same utterly useless duds like Dessers and Dowell - how much more evidence is needed that they are simply crap. Would rather give minutes to guys like Lovelace and Rice than stick with absolute duds like them. Clement constantly makes excuses and seems clear that has filtered down to the squad as well. The alarm bells have been ringing since pre-season and ever since then, and yet nothing seems to have twigged with the management and players that they need to up their game big time. Clement simply has to go, he's not the man to bring any success to Rangers. We sacked Gio and Beale for much less than this.
The concept of rotating and keeping players fresh is part of many successful teams philosophy,the issue with rangers is we don't have any depth and if you want to really be critical you could argue we don't even have a solid starting 11 as at any given time they too can be guilty of underperforming or being simply not good enough! Why he keeps doing it i honestly have no idea,some are obviously forced decisions but cerny,igamane are clearly fit and should be starting,glad cortes finally got some minutes but to start him was an insane choice 🤯
Dessers dowell absolutely shocking the usual we start playing when we go goals down can anyone tell these players its 90 mins a game another good pod cj thanks for all your podcasts best for 2025 wes 👍
19:49 I think you nailed it there. Ever played in a team where you train and the manager doesnt seem to know what they are doing, always changing their minds, never listen to anyone else? Players don't enjoy playing at that point. I get it, if its us as fans we expect them to show up regardless but they aren't us and we don't have to listen to Clement every day.
Happy New Year CJ to you and yours, as a celtic fan its baffling selections by the manager, like you said, lose with your best, you can live with that, also sometimes the weight of the jersey is too much for some players , that being said please, please play dessers thursday lol Cheers mate and enjoy the new years
CJ WTF how did this man ever get a coaching licence. He should be a politician with the shit that comes out his gub. Were getting duffed on Thursday might have a look and see the score on Friday. Thanks pal happy new year.
@@kenrussell1635 does he look like hes capable the last 2 games? good chance hes fucking shattered from having a new born. if thats the case. he should be dropped, the same way our best players have been dropped
@@Cd1988-r2dAgree, looks like he couldn’t give a fiddlers these days.Have a look at his 2 dives for the 2nd goal of St Mirren and 2nd of Motherwell. Big dive, but no outstretched arm to try to save. Should’ve been sent off against St mirren, maybe that was his plan, a red card to miss Celtic game.
Oh CJ, I feel your pain and I share it too. Completely baffled by Clement’s thinking over the past few weeks. Did he really think that a weakened Rangers team could still win against St Mirren and Motherwell who are honest, hardworking players determined to do their best against us? If so, his concentration on trying to win three points on Thursday has cost us five dropped points over the last two matches. At present, we are just not good enough to play anything other than our best eleven in EVERY match and, even then, we might come up short. I’ll be watching the Old Firm match from behind the couch.
As soon as I saw the team sheet, I knew 😢 Honestly CJ I could write a book about the mistakes being made but like you I can't take the lies, Clement makes me feel like I'm living in a waking nightmare.
I thought Ridvan looked like Barasic. 20 -25 yards from the goal line punt in a high curling cross to no one, lazy and shockingly predictable. Hit the bye line son and cut it back across the middle!!!!!!! Change it up a wee bit, play a 1 2.
Folks, I find it interesting that the situation at Rangers is so mystifying , that even Celtic fans here are actually offering constructive views and comments. The whole thing is so weird, its as if we're all looking at this in a detached sort of way, Gers and Hoops fans alike. I've really never, ever seen this football club run so badly , nor in such dire straits, in my 65 years of support.
You know your up a certain creek when your taking off Cotrez and bringing on Matondo... both of whom haven't had a single minute if game time in months 🤔
Hi CJ, I've commented on a few of your uploads before and it's usually about dessers. He is some sort of athlete but he's certainly not a professional footballer! It's simple really, he should be nowhere near that team. I think clement wants to be seen as a tactician but i see him as an idiot! Football is a simple game. Get the best players on EVERY bloody game until they're knackered!! FFS it's not rocket science.
Shocking today. Motherwell in the first half showed what we didnt desire and heart we lost every 50/50. Imo Butland punch that into his own net coming at it with the wrong hand goal for me. Is King that bad he cant start over Propper.. Cheers for the vid CJ agree with the frustrations sadly we are not good enough.. we are in a fight for second. Happy new year when it comes to all Blue Noses 💙 hopefully its better than this year!
Celtic supporter, enjoy your truthful commentary. I always felt and did comment that the 5 games from Boxing Day would tell a story. 4 away , 1 against us at Ibrox, 2 games in & dropped 5 points and you’ll be fortunate to get 3 of the next 9 as after us Hibs then Dundee away. Alastair Johnson played the cup final having not trained the week before due to hip complaint, no sport scientist was going to deny him . Is there anyone knocking on Phil’s door saying the want to play despite what any “expert” thinks…
completely agree, as a rangers fan. ive noticed over the last few seasons that now and again the likes of kyogo or maeda etc get injured a couple weeks before an old firm game, but when the old firm game comes round, they are there and ready, starting 11. genuinely think if raskin (our best player) got a paper cut, clement would keep him out the squad for a month. weve been pish, pish tactics, pish squad selection, pish excuses from the manager. celtic are miles ahead in every category
Clement not the issue, no money to spend, forced to get rid of players due to ridiculous contracts given by previous managers and board , guy is doing a job with both hands and now legs tied behind his back, board have hung him out to dry , hence the contract extension already, can’t afford to sack him as they are still paying off the previous two managers, was always gonna be a disaster of a season, nobody to blame apart from the board in charge!
Your point about the injuries is an absolute killer, if this reliance on sports science was being reflected in the injury reports you could try and defend it.
Always fair and insightful CJ as a Celtic fan 60+ years I’ve never witnessed such a poor Rangers team this year hoping your team will out up more of a fight of it next year mate.
Struggled to even watch this last night CJ, great content and I thought you were spot on with your analysis. Just depressing. I'm not sure I even care about the result on the 2nd, what would it even matter?
Before the cup final, I was confident gping into the game we could win. Since then we've gone back the way. Can't say im confident now. Need to start our best 11 for sure and maybe put Kelly in goal as Butland seems to have his mind elsewhere.
This could be an unpopular opinion but personally I don’t have an issue with rotation. Igamane and Cerny both played against St Mirren in a game we lost. Both of them seemed quite tired. We should have enough quality to bring in other players and beat Motherwell. I mean they have Andy Halliday starting for them who was a part of one of the worst ever Rangers sides. Our starting eleven was still more than good enough to win this match- if they have the right attitude and work rate. We had more than enough chances to win this match. I watched the highlights (after watching the game too) and there were plenty opportunities to get the winning goal. Celtic rest/rotate players. We can’t play the same eleven every week. Even our squad players walk in to almost every other side in the SPL, bar Celtic. The players need to take some responsibility. That first half was pathetic. Awful defending and well finishing. It seems like it’s more of a mental issue. We perform excellently in Europe but when it comes ti away matches in the league, we look devoid of confidence and drop points in every other game. We need to beat Celtic. Obviously the league is over but we have to at least salvage some pride between now and the end of the season. Maybe beating them would help with giving the players some confidence, cos they are clearly devoid of it when it comes to domestic football- except from a few guys like Raskin, Igamane, Cerny and Danilo who are performing well most weeks and aren’t shying away. The rest of the team are completely off the boil and Butland deserves to be dropped as he was shocking today.
We got away with one the day ,and if the goalbdisallowed against butland was at our end we wiuld have been screaming for it ,fair play to mwell yhey should have won that game and u,m a rangers fan threw and threw but an honest one 🇬🇧
I'm utterly scunnered not having a proper captain. Someone who harrasses the referee at every decision. Someone who leads by example and remembers his primary role, defender. Tav is stealing a wage and others in team are mirroring his lazy example. PC is tinkering far too much. Give our youth a chance. Sign some scottish players.
Not a Rangers supporter, but this Sydney FC fan tunes in from the other side of the world just for your presentation, humour, and passion. Love the channel mate and have a great 2025.
Absolutely spot on. Clement ALWAYS narrows the result down to one moment (usually something thats not his fault). He thinks Rangers fans are mugs. Fans would maybe be more patient if he was atctually willing to take accountabilty.
CJ everything you said is 100% true, it's time the media holds him to account as you said excuse after excuse, waiting on the board to make the decision. You can't be 14 points behind Celtic and expect to keep your job, first half was one of the worst display of a Rangers team.
Rangers would have won comfortably had they taken half of the very easy chances especially before Motherwell scored. The players were rotated which sometimes weaken the team but it was still strong enough to win that game. Look at the chances missed today, shocking.
Doesn't matter if there was a handball in the build up to their 1st goal,We didn't defend well enough,Propper needs to be stronger there and win the ball then Var can look at it
Clement is a conundrum 🤔 Winning in Europe and indeed pushing Celtic right to the end in the cup final shows he (and the squad ) must have something. But in the spl it’s like a whole other team shows up 🤷♂️ Another quality video cj From an Armchair Celtic fan

We have a director of football who takes care of recruitment issues it's not Clements job to sign players , he won't make the big calls, drop butland put him on the transfer list he's fucking awful , get that shite hawk of a captain out the squad he's hopeless, a new manager would need to make those decisions, but they won't , 3managers in 3 seasons, players who still can't do the basics, = it's the players they are not fit to wear the jersey
No point spending a penny with Clement in charge.
Plus the league is well and truly over.
To answer your question, Celtic rotate their team on a regular basis bit the difference is the drop in quality isn't obvious.
To not pick his strongest team in the last two games because he has an eye on the Celtic game has now made that game practically irrelevant. I thought he finally got things right a few games ago, but he just went backwards again. Even if we win on the 2nd, we are still a whopping 11 points behind. That’s why Celtic can afford to rest Mcgregor today. If anyone thinks there’s anything left to salvage this season, they need sectioned. These away stats are shocking by the way. What a disgrace. Clement needs gone.
I am done with the waffler. This is Caixinha levels of regression. Whoever appointed him and Beale better not have a say in the next man. Enough is enough. Time to sack Clement. This is now torture.
Dessers AND Dowell?! Never thought I would be pining for Scott Wright.
Scunnered.......again.
Thought this said surrendered at first glance
@@user-sp3sy5zi8i If I was talking about the team it would've.
Delicious
Can the Rangers fans please not turn up for the old firm game. This would be a real protest. No violence, no foul language. Just empty seats and empty tills at Ibrox would be enough to force change.
The tickets were paid for long ago.
That would be impossible for the narrow minded and bigoted Sevco supporters to turn up without the usual hate filled sectarian 17th century bullshit songs which bring shame on Scotland and the Scottish people.
Bring back Beale or Pedro I say 😮
There is no old firm, Rangers died and were closed down by the Scottish courts in 2012. Check the court records for that year.
@@johnhiggins779 so why do you care? Why do any Celtic fans care if that's how yous feel?
Brilliant 34 min video Cj appreciate your opinions agree with them all
The team looks like a group of guys down the park for a kick about. No organisation, no style of play, even after over a year in charge for Clement. Keeps picking the same utterly useless duds like Dessers and Dowell - how much more evidence is needed that they are simply crap. Would rather give minutes to guys like Lovelace and Rice than stick with absolute duds like them. Clement constantly makes excuses and seems clear that has filtered down to the squad as well. The alarm bells have been ringing since pre-season and ever since then, and yet nothing seems to have twigged with the management and players that they need to up their game big time. Clement simply has to go, he's not the man to bring any success to Rangers. We sacked Gio and Beale for much less than this.
The concept of rotating and keeping players fresh is part of many successful teams philosophy,the issue with rangers is we don't have any depth and if you want to really be critical you could argue we don't even have a solid starting 11 as at any given time they too can be guilty of underperforming or being simply not good enough! Why he keeps doing it i honestly have no idea,some are obviously forced decisions but cerny,igamane are clearly fit and should be starting,glad cortes finally got some minutes but to start him was an insane choice 🤯
We got lucky today - that should have been over by half time. If Motherwell had that little bit more quality it would have been 3/4 at half time.
Dessers dowell absolutely shocking the usual we start playing when we go goals down can anyone tell these players its 90 mins a game another good pod cj thanks for all your podcasts best for 2025 wes 👍
I think youl finish 3rd 🥉
Thing is, none of us care what you think.
Unfair on the hearts!!🤪🤪
@@alandouglas7296 you clearly do if you take your time to reply Alan from Larkhall council flat.
19:49 I think you nailed it there. Ever played in a team where you train and the manager doesnt seem to know what they are doing, always changing their minds, never listen to anyone else? Players don't enjoy playing at that point. I get it, if its us as fans we expect them to show up regardless but they aren't us and we don't have to listen to Clement every day.
Happy New Year CJ to you and yours, as a celtic fan its baffling selections by the manager, like you said, lose with your best, you can live with that, also sometimes the weight of the jersey is too much for some players , that being said please, please play dessers thursday lol Cheers mate and enjoy the new years
If you a professional footballer and cant play 2 or three games a week there is something wrong
2 ok 3 pushing it unless you mean sat / weds/ sat
Agree. Two games a week i.e Sat/Wed should not be a problem for a pro.
Happy new year to you and your family CJ and to all on your channel 😁
Great show CJ. You had me laughing!
CJ WTF how did this man ever get a coaching licence. He should be a politician with the shit that comes out his gub. Were getting duffed on Thursday might have a look and see the score on Friday. Thanks pal happy new year.
I think it’s Brendan Rogers that picks the team for PC
🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧🇬🇧
agent phil
I thought it was Lennon.
Happy new year CJ loving your podcasts. Heres to a better 2025
Hi CJ and all other rangers fans… Kilmarnock fan here. Just came on to say a genuine and heartfelt HAHAHAHAHAHAHAHA
Sister bedder
How’s 9th laddie
@donshlugga5900 as shite as we are and we still hammered you lot 6-0!😂😂 oh and did yous not just lose 1-0 to Hibs?!😂😂😂👋🏻
Kilmarnock, the place you go when your not accepted in society. All inbreeds welcome apparently
@@craiggibson9922 I present you with… “we beat a team with a fraction of our budget 6-0 trophy 🏆 “
We already beat you this season. Yous are MUGS
Obviously Butland should be given some time off, he's thinking about his wife, and the baby. Kelly is a perfectly capable goalie.
How did he have the baby don't talk nonsense he's mince simple
Hey, I had to go to work after my bairns were born, so should Jack. This is a ridiculous excuse.
@kenrussell1635 exactly. Bet you're not getting thousands a week. In my opinion he doesn't care anymore and he wants to leave
@@kenrussell1635 does he look like hes capable the last 2 games? good chance hes fucking shattered from having a new born. if thats the case. he should be dropped, the same way our best players have been dropped
@@Cd1988-r2dAgree, looks like he couldn’t give a fiddlers these days.Have a look at his 2 dives for the 2nd goal of St Mirren and 2nd of Motherwell. Big dive, but no outstretched arm to try to save. Should’ve been sent off against St mirren, maybe that was his plan, a red card to miss Celtic game.
If they field that defence on Thursday they'll get ripped to shreds.
Just sayin.
From a Celtic fan that loves your content have a good 1 aswell
Your assessment is 100% correct
Oh CJ, I feel your pain and I share it too. Completely baffled by Clement’s thinking over the past few weeks. Did he really think that a weakened Rangers team could still win against St Mirren and Motherwell who are honest, hardworking players determined to do their best against us? If so, his concentration on trying to win three points on Thursday has cost us five dropped points over the last two matches. At present, we are just not good enough to play anything other than our best eleven in EVERY match and, even then, we might come up short. I’ll be watching the Old Firm match from behind the couch.
Sack the manager drop Butland get rid of dessers and dowell that’s all that needs said
Agreed john
As soon as I saw the team sheet, I knew 😢 Honestly CJ I could write a book about the mistakes being made but like you I can't take the lies, Clement makes me feel like I'm living in a waking nightmare.
A painful one... just lost for words
Don’t worry cj clement will fix this once he finds someone at the who he should pick
I thought Ridvan looked like Barasic. 20 -25 yards from the goal line punt in a high curling cross to no one, lazy and shockingly predictable. Hit the bye line son and cut it back across the middle!!!!!!! Change it up a wee bit, play a 1 2.
Folks, I find it interesting that the situation at Rangers is so mystifying , that even Celtic fans here are actually offering constructive views and comments. The whole thing is so weird, its as if we're all looking at this in a detached sort of way, Gers and Hoops fans alike. I've really never, ever seen this football club run so badly , nor in such dire straits, in my 65 years of support.
"Dae they want tae play fitbaw....coz they dinae play like it" - this about sums it up for most of that team.
You know your up a certain creek when your taking off Cotrez and bringing on Matondo... both of whom haven't had a single minute if game time in months 🤔
Well said CJ, I have nothing to contribute, other than to plead. Sack clement at any cost!
Hi CJ, I've commented on a few of your uploads before and it's usually about dessers. He is some sort of athlete but he's certainly not a professional footballer! It's simple really, he should be nowhere near that team. I think clement wants to be seen as a tactician but i see him as an idiot! Football is a simple game. Get the best players on EVERY bloody game until they're knackered!! FFS it's not rocket science.
The whole commentary on Sterling was seriously lol funny! 😂
Shocking today. Motherwell in the first half showed what we didnt desire and heart we lost every 50/50. Imo Butland punch that into his own net coming at it with the wrong hand goal for me.
Is King that bad he cant start over Propper..
Cheers for the vid CJ agree with the frustrations sadly we are not good enough.. we are in a fight for second.
Happy new year when it comes to all Blue Noses 💙 hopefully its better than this year!
11:54 To be fair he was criticised often for throwing his players under the bus.
Good video from oor CJ.
HANDED A draw
Celtic supporter, enjoy your truthful commentary. I always felt and did comment that the 5 games from Boxing Day would tell a story. 4 away , 1 against us at Ibrox, 2 games in & dropped 5 points and you’ll be fortunate to get 3 of the next 9 as after us Hibs then Dundee away. Alastair Johnson played the cup final having not trained the week before due to hip complaint, no sport scientist was going to deny him . Is there anyone knocking on Phil’s door saying the want to play despite what any “expert” thinks…
completely agree, as a rangers fan. ive noticed over the last few seasons that now and again the likes of kyogo or maeda etc get injured a couple weeks before an old firm game, but when the old firm game comes round, they are there and ready, starting 11. genuinely think if raskin (our best player) got a paper cut, clement would keep him out the squad for a month. weve been pish, pish tactics, pish squad selection, pish excuses from the manager. celtic are miles ahead in every category
CJ you are absolutely correct in everything you are saying.
Clement not the issue, no money to spend, forced to get rid of players due to ridiculous contracts given by previous managers and board , guy is doing a job with both hands and now legs tied behind his back, board have hung him out to dry , hence the contract extension already, can’t afford to sack him as they are still paying off the previous two managers, was always gonna be a disaster of a season, nobody to blame apart from the board in charge!
Your point about the injuries is an absolute killer, if this reliance on sports science was being reflected in the injury reports you could try and defend it.
Kicking the can down the road at this point. More than a Clement starting 11 could do tbf.
Spot on again CJ. I don’t even get upset now and the kids ask why I’m not shouting at the telly these days
Always fair and insightful CJ as a Celtic fan 60+ years I’ve never witnessed such a poor Rangers team this year hoping your team will out up more of a fight of it next year mate.
Struggled to even watch this last night CJ, great content and I thought you were spot on with your analysis. Just depressing. I'm not sure I even care about the result on the 2nd, what would it even matter?
Before the cup final, I was confident gping into the game we could win. Since then we've gone back the way. Can't say im confident now. Need to start our best 11 for sure and maybe put Kelly in goal as Butland seems to have his mind elsewhere.
An old school Jimmy Dore-esque rant. Have a great new year.
This could be an unpopular opinion but personally I don’t have an issue with rotation. Igamane and Cerny both played against St Mirren in a game we lost. Both of them seemed quite tired.
We should have enough quality to bring in other players and beat Motherwell. I mean they have Andy Halliday starting for them who was a part of one of the worst ever Rangers sides. Our starting eleven was still more than good enough to win this match- if they have the right attitude and work rate.
We had more than enough chances to win this match. I watched the highlights (after watching the game too) and there were plenty opportunities to get the winning goal. Celtic rest/rotate players. We can’t play the same eleven every week. Even our squad players walk in to almost every other side in the SPL, bar Celtic.
The players need to take some responsibility. That first half was pathetic. Awful defending and well finishing. It seems like it’s more of a mental issue. We perform excellently in Europe but when it comes ti away matches in the league, we look devoid of confidence and drop points in every other game.
We need to beat Celtic. Obviously the league is over but we have to at least salvage some pride between now and the end of the season. Maybe beating them would help with giving the players some confidence, cos they are clearly devoid of it when it comes to domestic football- except from a few guys like Raskin, Igamane, Cerny and Danilo who are performing well most weeks and aren’t shying away. The rest of the team are completely off the boil and Butland deserves to be dropped as he was shocking today.
He will be in place for Thursday the board needs a scapegoat
Yep, he'll be sacked Friday and the board will be able to hide behind the names we were linked with
Rinse and repeat
Nailed it CJ thank you
We got away with one the day ,and if the goalbdisallowed against butland was at our end we wiuld have been screaming for it ,fair play to mwell yhey should have won that game and u,m a rangers fan threw and threw but an honest one 🇬🇧
Motherwell were robbed
I'm utterly scunnered not having a proper captain. Someone who harrasses the referee at every decision. Someone who leads by example and remembers his primary role, defender. Tav is stealing a wage and others in team are mirroring his lazy example. PC is tinkering far too much. Give our youth a chance. Sign some scottish players.
Not a Rangers supporter, but this Sydney FC fan tunes in from the other side of the world just for your presentation, humour, and passion. Love the channel mate and have a great 2025.
One word description of the last two games : unexeptable !
RTID 🇬🇧
Absolutely spot on. Clement ALWAYS narrows the result down to one moment (usually something thats not his fault). He thinks Rangers fans are mugs. Fans would maybe be more patient if he was atctually willing to take accountabilty.
We are guff. Thanks for the video CJ.
CJ everything you said is 100% true, it's time the media holds him to account as you said excuse after excuse, waiting on the board to make the decision. You can't be 14 points behind Celtic and expect to keep your job, first half was one of the worst display of a Rangers team.
Rangers would have won comfortably had they taken half of the very easy chances especially before Motherwell scored. The players were rotated which sometimes weaken the team but it was still strong enough to win that game. Look at the chances missed today, shocking.
You’re delusional
He is not a manager he let his medical team pick the Start 11 please sack him now
Baffling
Doesn't matter if there was a handball in the build up to their 1st goal,We didn't defend well enough,Propper needs to be stronger there and win the ball then Var can look at it
Clement is a conundrum 🤔
Winning in Europe and indeed pushing Celtic right to the end in the cup final shows he (and the squad ) must have something.
But in the spl it’s like a whole other team shows up
🤷♂️
Another quality video cj
From an Armchair Celtic fan
As a celtic fan I respect your comments on your comments 👏 👍 👌
Clement is keeping his ‘best’ 11 for the Celtic game because he probably thinks losing that game will get him his jotters.
