Robertson was every bit as effective for Rangers as Numan was, he may have been wrongly overlooked by Scotland but he was top class for Rangers and as I say as equal to Numan as a Rangers player.Nonsense fs. Robertson was one of the best in Scotland in his position, Numan was a genuine contender for the best in the world.
Son? Really?Take a chill pill son. The title of the thread is about players you liked but weren’t actually that great. It’s a sharing of our bampottery not lauding the indefensible. Nobody has named Baxter, Laudrup or Alfie. It’s about the wonderful blinkered views of brother Bears. A wee laugh.
Cheers Brother.Son? Really?
As you said the thread is about players folk liked that may not have actually been that great.
Greg Stewart is a decent shout, I’ve no complaints there - it is indeed all about opinions after all - but to then suggest Gerrard got it wrong by not playing him more takes it into a different argument, and I’m all over that baby, especially on a Friday evening after a couple of glasses of wine.
As you say though, it is just a wee laugh.
Chin chin!
Novo was that sort of striker who was more deadly from 25 yards than 5. So long as he didn’t have time to think about finishing he did it much better.Would score a screamer then trip over the ball five minutes later
Windass??Windass and waghorn, I was pissed off to see them leave tbh!!
One was also the number of legs the opposing player usually had after he tackled them.Terry Hurlock.
You could count on one hand the number of times he gave the ball away in his Rangers career.

This is the Rangers fans site not that lot!Édit,sorry underrated!!
Seconded on the tin man and big marv.The Tin Man ,Big Marv ,Davie Mitchell and Gregor Stevens
.....so obectively not that good but you took to them.
When I was very young I liked Ian Redford, as well as Jardine, Russell and Cooper, and the rest...but his tragic suicide threw up some comments about how most people (player included) felt he had never quite won fans over or played at his best. Perhaps harsh but my images don't seem to tally with folk who were there.
Later on I had some bizarre beliefs: Alan Lowing was as good as Hutton. I believed fully in Peter Van Vossen when he signed. I suspected Emerson would be great for us.
But a genuienly odd one was Mo Edu...I believed that our fans just didn't understand the 'Makele role' and WHY he never went to ground or got stuck in. I elevated him to a misunderstood genius. Really liked him despite him being decried every week by everyone else?!?!
Anyone you took to who perhaps was no-one else's #1?
Although eclipsed by the likes of Numan and Papac, I thought Davie Robertson was a fantastic left back for us. Pace to destroy teams and the heart of a lion.
Would love to have seen how good Oleg Kuznetsov would have been, if it had not have been for that injury against St Mirrenov
I watched the 90/91 season DVD a few months ago and it comes back to you that he was pinging balls around and into peoples feet all season, on all condition of pitch.His ball to McCoist in the OF was tremendous.
Totally agree m8.Amato. Thought he didnt get a fair crack when he signed
Wot a player tho ....Usain bolt had pictures of him on his wall when he was youngTotally agree m8.
Guy was brilliant imoCharbonnier.
He was a great goalkeeper before his injury, albeit prone to an ‘eccentric’ moment. Unfortunately his injury and that his time as No1 fell between Klos and Goram mean he isn’t quite as well remembered as he deserves IMO.
no denying Numan was talented and Papac a great servant, but for me Robertson surpassed both of them, but he doesn’t seem to get that recognition on here. Maybe cos Numan and Papac came after him and some won’t have seen or remembered Robertson, but as you say, he was fantastic for us.Although eclipsed by the likes of Numan and Papac, I thought Davie Robertson was a fantastic left back for us.

I liked Mo Edu - I thought he was dead solid and a great competitior.I believe Edu made us a better team despite him individually not being the best of players.
There's been loads I wanted to see given more of a run in the team, but I accept that it doesn't matter who plays as long as the job is being done.
For others in this category - I knew Vanoli was poor, but I liked his attitude at least. Always hoped he'd turn it around.
YesWindass??
Really thoughtKevin Drinkell and Cammy Fraser were underaged!!
Is it too early to say Derek McInnes.l?.....so obectively not that good but you took to them.

Big John maclelland Affectionately known as red hand. Bad but very goodAndy Halliday
Sorry but Davie Mitchell was far too bad I’m afraid. Possibly the worst striker I’ve ever seen. And as for Gregor Stevens? Actually yes. Funny To think we paid to watch that pile of shit in the eighties. Makes the fact Davie Cooper stayed around more astonishing. Still loved us though.The Tin Man ,Big Marv ,Davie Mitchell and Gregor Stevens
