Most Rangers fans probably didn’t know this about January signing

Rangers fans are not exactly happy with yesterday’s dismal loss to Kilmarnock, and a number of players are getting both barrels.

However, one was regarded as having had his second bad match in a row, following a slightly weaker Old Firm than expected, before being hooked at half time yesterday after an average first half.

Sean Goss, who up till 12:00 one week ago was the toast of the fans, has now become something of a scapegoat and after two displays which did not reach the heights of the start he’d made following his move from Loftus Road, many fans wish to see axed.

Of course, that very thing happened when he was removed on 45 minutes and Rangers, with Jason Holt in his position, conspired to be even worse after the restart, but that is neither here nor there.

The point is something a lot of fans probably didn’t know – yesterday’s start at Ibrox was only Sean Goss’s 14th senior start in football, period.

The 22 year midfielder has made nine league starts for Rangers, three in the cup, and the two for Ian Holloway’s QPR.

In short, after a stunning beginning his time north of the border, his inexperience at senior level may just be showing for the first time, with two managers in a row shutting him out.

Next to him the outstanding Greg Docherty may be one year his junior but has tonnes of senior SPL experience and it has really shown over the past two matches.

This is not to attack Goss – this is not a smear on him, but rather, an appeal for some understanding from the fans who want him out the team. We are big fans of his and hope he can get over this blip, but as we iterate, he has only ever started 14 games at senior level.

And right now, it’s essentially him or Holt.
