Rankin showed more in a few months of last season than Morgan has done in his entire ICT career. WynessLegend - Perhaps you should ask Ross County supporters about that He was taken off at half time in the biggest game in their history as he was so poor

Why? Who do you think we have that is better? He is a central midfielder who played out of position for the good of the team last season and won us 2 games with his goals

Plus our no 1 signing target is McGuire who we can sign on a Bosman

From what I've heard Rankin is the consummate professional to for people to question his attitude is way off the mark. I think it's perfectly understandable that he'd be unhappy wouldn't you knowing that no matter how well you played in the reserves or hard you trained the manager wasn't going to give you a game. adding insult to injury is the fact that some the people keeping you out of the team are inferior players. We will be lucky to get half the money we paid for Rankin so not only are we losing a very good young player we will be taking a financial hit. If we need to raise money for a central defender there are many other players who should be shown the door before JR

You may well be right RiG and it's pretty depressing thought really :007: Who wants to pay money to see kick and chase robots?? If he doesn't rate Rankin then I'm afraid Zander won't be back either. This decision makes no footballing sense :029: Today I'm truly regretting buying a season ticket

Is this to whip up into shape for the 1st Division next season? :024: This might have been a revolutionary idea a few years ago but all the other clubs have now cottoned on to how well we did and there players are just as fit now. It appears Brewster just wants athletes who can chase the long ball all day and any player with a bit of flair/creativity won't fit into his plans :018:

It would be interesting to hear what the pro-Brewster lobby think of him now? I was willing to give him the benefit of the doubt upon his return but the last few weeks have eroded any support I could muster. Letting Rankin go is just plain stupid :008:

This is truly an unbelievable decision. It's sheer stupidity baffles me :crazy07: I doubt anyone on here thinks this is a good idea. So why does our manager? Brewster doesn't have a clue if he rates the likes of McBain, Morgan and a veteran Wilson ahead of Rankin :008: Still at least it may hasten our clueless leaders departure. It's times like these you wonder why you bother supporting the club

Craig Samson has been called up :rotflmao:

Worrying story LINK What's Brewster playing at? I think it would be a huge mistake to let Rankin go

3 game ban as well

Said in the paper Brewster isn't seeing specialist till 22nd so I doubt he would be available for St Mirren game. He should get his shouler sorted now and if we are still in a relegation dog fight come March/April he'd then offer us another striking option

Wood is a striker so that's 1 off the list for a start. In all likelihood Wilson is in his last season so that's 10. Morgan's contract expires in January has he done enough to be offered a new one? Hart & Paatelainen contract's expire at the end of the season so the same question would apply

The plot thickens.... Not even in the squad for the reserve defeat to Gretna yesterday!! Injured :symbol_question: Playing on Saturday :symbol_question: Or in the bad books :029:

I really thought he'd be shown the door but a decisions been made and hopefully that'll be the end of the matter. Whether he gets another game is open to debate. Guess it depends if he's one of the mangers favourites or not :023:

I just assumed Wilson & Cowie were omitted from the starting line up/squad because Brew had decided this was a game we couldn't get anything from and was giving them a rest for matches we had more of a chance of winning?? The continued absence of Rankin, however is getting more and more baffling

It only took till the 79th minute before Brewster noticed the game wasn't going our way :023: Ho Hum. We humped Gretna then Aberdeen hump us. Guess what goes around comes around. Not looking forward to the Rangers game now :029:

Oh Dear :029: Sounds like a dismal TEAM performance tonight :009: I wonder how Niculae is going to get the blame for this defeat?? Perhaps earning all that money and only sitting on the bench :tic01: I feel sorry for any and all of our fans who've gone through to see this game Off to watch Heroes ~ here's hoping it doesn't turn into a rugby score :rolleyes02:

Good result :clapping03: Well done one & all Attendance is a bit embarrassing though. There were more folk at some of the 2nd round Scottish Cup games as well as matches in the 2nd Division!

I see County have appointed a new manager, err.........sort of... :023: LINK

Postponed again!! I was hoping this saga would finally be resolved one way or another today.

It'll NEVER happen but I'd go with a 3-5-2 formation Fraser McGuire Caff Munro Proctor Hastings Cowie Black Rankin Wyness Niculae

Fit & well and yet languishing in the reserves. For some reason Brew thinks McBain is a better footballer than him :sillywave:

Top 6!! :010: Come on :sillywave: How are we possibly going to get a Top 6 place if we can't beat the likes of Gretna??? We need to start to get points on the board now!! Our first and main target this season is to avoid relegation. Anything else is a bonus

Normally I'd agree but Motherwell seem to be a much harder nut to crack under their new manager :rolleyes02:
