All this about giving Flanagan a chance has eff all to do with us, the zombies pay his wages, the fans pay to watch him play, they are giving him the chance. The minute a player signs for an Ibrox club and takes the Billy Boy buck he becomes a dick to most of us. Flanagan joining was just accentuating his reputation as a effing idiot. This

Barry (8) believs that everyone should be given a second chance...unless you are Michael O'Halloran.
Jon Flanagan deserves second chance Rangers have given him - Barry Ferguson Barry is a big believer in redemption and reckons Flanagan can put his assault shame firmly behind him at Ibrox.
Spoiler: click to toggle ByBarry Ferguson I stand with the vast majority of football people when it comes to debating Jon Flanagan’s signing. The former Liverpool full-back did wrong and was handed a 12-month community order earlier this year for assaulting his girlfriend in December. He made a bad mistake, pleaded guilty and is serving his sentence but he needs to be allowed to move on with his life and career. I’m a big believer in second chances, not just in football but in life in general, as people must be given the right to earn redemption for their wrongdoings. I’ve made mistakes that have caused me great regret, especially in football, but good people gave me the chance to atone. It’s only right former England full-back Flanagan is allowed to focus on his career again, which had stalled at Liverpool after he sustained a knee injury four years ago. He is one of seven confirmed signings by Steven Gerrard and I like the way the Rangers boss is going about his business. He’s addressing the spine of the team to transform a squad many thought were mentally and physically lacking. The signing of central defenders Nikola Katic and Connor Goldson, allied to the arrival of keeper Allan McGregor and Scott Arfield, will certainly make Rangers more robust. Flanagan will add to that mix. I admired him at Liverpool, where he played at the highest level and was never afraid to bomb up and down the wing and into a tackle. He can play right and left in defence and adds to the competition Rangers will need in their squad if they are even to get close to Celtic next season. I’m not sure his arrival necessarily raises questions over the future of captain James Tavernier who excelled last term in a campaign that was otherwise best forgotten. Money talks, of course, and if Rangers were to receive an offer for the full-back that was too good to refuse I’m sure they would sanction the deal and reinvest in the squad. I know of a few clubs who looked at Tavernier last season because he did stand out. But I’d like to see him stay and create greater competition for places – and he can also play further forward on the right. Rangers are also looking to add powerful Nigerian striker Umar Sadiq to the mix and I don’t think they’ll be as easily bullied on the pitch, physically and mentally, as they were last season. Games are often won and lost in the tunnel and I don’t think many rivals will look at the Rangers players in the coming weeks and months and consider them soft touches. The body language last season wasn’t always good as shoulders were slumped when players should have been standing tall with their chests puffed out. It takes a lot of mental strength to play for a club the size of Rangers with all the expectations that come with it – but Gerrard thrived under that pressure at Liverpool. He knows what it’s like to deliver at the highest level and will not accept a decline in standards now he’s a manager. Players will have to shape up or be shipped out. To that end he has also vowed to make Rangers fitter than ever before and that’s certainly a message that resonates. As a player my confidence was never higher than when I was at my physical peak, a tip-top condition when I knew I could get about the park with ease. Rangers are working to that end in the south of Spain right now and while there are always risks associated with so many changes in one transfer window, Gerrard has moved to mitigate against it. The arrival of the bulk of his new signings so early in his reign means bonds of friendship and team solidarity will be formed sooner rather than later. The new-look squad will be training together, watching the World Cup in each other’s company and getting to know each other over games of cards and coffee. The proof of the pudding will be in the eating, of course, but a lot of Rangers fans will be quietly impressed with the way Gerrard and his backroom team are going about their business. https://www.dailyrecord.co.uk/sport/football/football-news/jon-flanagan-deserves-second-chance-12771893

Re: Flanagan First and foremost, I believe that the full nature of just how low Sevco have gone is summed up by this signing. They will do anything, sign anyone and continue to rip up the rule book as they attempt to make themselves relevant. They are a despicable institution from top to bottom, like the liquidated club they are associated with. What annoys me most are the moral crusaders who have no intention of giving Flanagan a chance to make amends for a disgusting, disgraceful and demeaning attack on a young woman. That will be with him for the rest of his life. At the end of the day, he is a human being, if he is involved in ANY future violence, of any type, then he will never learn - end of story! I do not know a single Jesus Christ in this world though I know many who seem to think they are Him reincarnated - you usually find these people in chruches across the land on a Sunday. If McGuinness & Paisley had not been afforded the chance to learn from the past then we would not have a peace process in the North today. The list is endless from major to minor issues. If my faults were on show for all to see I doubt I'd venture outside. I notice that many Celtic fans - myself included - have a lot of time and get a lot of enjoyment from Stan Collymore, is that wrong? That's it! I shall go back to my non-post mode - should make many happy
Well done, the Worst Post of the Year Award is in the bag!
I don't know how I do it, however, I seem to surpass myself with every post. Not sure what way I view life at all but it certainly provokes endless ridicule. Perhaps, one day, I'll manage a post that someone agrees with … perhaps not. Apologies for annoyance caused. Not fashionable but I agree with the basic gist of your post, although I suspect I'll be in the minority.

I am fully expecting the same day by day coverage for all our pre season friendlies which was given to the huns by big bawbag Ramon and the STV. All the media have been invited and encouraged by rangers. As you’ll see from our pre season coverage so far Brendan likes things to be a lot more private.

I see wee Barry is the latest to say how impressed everyone is with how SG is ‘quietly going about his business’
It’s in every paper every day and the speculation on who they’ll sign next is constant
And they are all giving it - i have never been fitter - new methods - and we are here to take your silverware blah blah blah
Unaware they all said the same thing last season and the season before and the season before
The collective amnesia from their players, fans and the media is one of Scottish footballs genuine constants

that's harsh. It had Jesus in it and everything. I certainly thought ‘oh Jesus’ when I read it.
That column of Ferguson’s has to be ghost written, can’t envisage him using the description ‘former England full back’ along with some other obvious phrases, usually those with word containing more than one syllable.

It is impressive the way that, every single season, they somehow manage to develop some exciting new way of doing pre-season training that will give them THE EDGE "when the real business starts". Every other football club are doing something else, I imagine? Is asking pro-footballers to go to Spain to run about, some mystical trick that Klopp or Guardiola just hadn't considered?
