Connor Goldson’s toxic Rangers comments are unwelcome

We’ve let the Connor Goldson story ‘percolate’ before covering it, the former Rangers ‘defender’ (and we use that term loosely) running his mouth off to the Daily Record about how he was forced out of Ibrox.

Let’s have a look at what he said:

“It was difficult to leave. I still felt I had a lot to give. Listen, I’m happy with this move. It has been great for me and my family and given us a great lifestyle. But do I think I could have contributed to Rangers this season? Of course I could have.”

Giving away already that he’s had a wage rise from £40,000pw to the number Ibrox Noise learned of around £50,000. Great lifestyle indeed!

He went on:

“That’s why I was so disappointed. The club gave me a contract when I was at the best point in my career. But, two years later, they didn’t want to fulfil that contract any more.”

Ha, Ross Wilson gave you a disgusting wage rise, no wonder the club didn’t want to pay it any more.

“Did I leave under a cloud? If I’m honest, I had felt that cloud from the end of last season. They told me they wanted me to leave. And I want to make this clear – that wasn’t the manager.”

Goldson’s exit to the bowels of Cyprus definitely was out of the blue, and Philippe Clement didn’t seem terribly enthused about it.

He continued:

“He was actually really good with me. But there were a lot of new people within the club who didn’t know what I’d given over six years. One said they wanted me to leave. At first I said no, I wasn’t going. But then it was probably my time. Listen, I have to respect the fact that the club didn’t want me any more. So I was happy to leave in the end and I don’t hold any hard feelings.”

Don’t worry Connor, the fans didn’t want you any more either. The only one who did was Philippe Clement and now fans at large can see how crap his judgement is.

Lastly:

“I had six amazing years with some brilliant times and some difficult ones. But over the six years I gave my best every time. No one will take that away from me.”

Andy Halliday already has mate, confirmed all you ever did was blame everyone else for your mistakes.

Goldson has picked a very anti-Rangers time to then dish dirt on the club, to feed into a blame culture. It’s like he’s added another grenade with which to unsettle the club and the fans, and this is the guy who has used his mouth many times to hurt our club by what he’s said.

As he sits there on his new fortune in the Mediterranean ‘defending’ the manager and feeding into Rangers’ troubles right now, we can’t help but be glad we have John Souttar now who can actually defend.

Goldson is no Ranger, he’s nothing in our eyes.
