appreciate effort fans manager matches players putting took
When I was manager at Ipswich and Derby, if we took 3500 to away matches that was good. To take over 6000 is unbelievable. The fans appreciate the effort the players are putting in.
best chances created game took
In the second-half we created the best chances and took the game to Newcastle.
blow calf early kick knee okay painful took whether
Takis took a painful blow to his knee while Julien got a kick on his calf and it is too early to say just now whether they will be okay for Rangers.
board decision fault granted happy hold maybe neil possibly qualms took united wanting
It's possibly my fault as United maybe took it for granted we were going to let him go. But the decision has to come from the board and I have no qualms in them wanting to keep hold of Neil and I'm happy to have him here.
foot kick later night others roman tomorrow took wait
Roman took a kick on his foot and won't make tomorrow night and we will have to wait and see how the others are later in the week,
available found good highest immaculate levels opportunity played turn
This was too good an opportunity to turn down once I found out he was available as he has played at the highest levels and has an immaculate CV.
damage
We don't think there is any ligament damage but there it's a setback for the lad.
bit develop hoping improve january looking number squad strengthen trying wait wee
We are trying to strengthen the squad as much as possible. There are a number we are still looking at for January and we will have to wait and see how things develop but I am hoping to improve things as we still have a wee bit to go.
difficult point points totally
Every point is important. It's very difficult to say but I think you've got to look at 50 points to be totally safe.
blow fourth goal minutes official soon whistle
When the fourth official put two minutes up I just thought blow your whistle because you could feel that as soon as we conceded the first goal we were jittery and worried.
doubt midnight players sign until
We will be working right up until midnight to try and sign the players we want, no doubt about that.
arrived came changes discontent dozen felt games hard maybe move players playing size squad start stick time unhealthy work
There have been a lot of changes and there were a lot of players I felt it was time to move on. There was a lot of discontent in the squad when I arrived and we had to start afresh. We need to work hard and stick together. When I came here I felt there was an unhealthy size of squad, if you get maybe a dozen players not playing games it's too many.
certain last missed players transfer
We missed out on certain players during the last transfer window, which was disappointing,
certainly left match options rangers risks taking
We do not have too many options left and we certainly won't be taking any risks with the Rangers match so close.
