Last one about footie for a while I promise...

I know this is of limited interest to the handful of people who read the pish, but I promise this will be the last for a while.

I have found myself annoyed not for the first time by Australia coach Frank Farina who has once again decided that he must have a moan about Rangers, despite the club agreeing to let captain (for now) Craig Moore miss vital Champions League qualifiers and several games at the start of the domestic season so he can play for Oz in the Olympics.
Farina reckons it's "disappointing" that Rangers are likely to strip Moore of the clubs captaincy and offload him for his disgraceful showing of disloyalty. But lets get a few things straight shall we?

Craig Moore was a nothing prospect when Walter Smith brought him to the club during our nine-in-a-row heyday. After a career that has seen him play well in patches but spend far more time on the treatment table, Alex McLeish recognised his long service record and made him captain last year after Amoruso and Ferguson left the club. Moore spend a disastrous season mainly injured, and unable to inspire when fit. Then in the closed season he began making noises about not signing a new contract until he saw what kind of players we were bringing in. Before long he was avidly touting himself for a move south. He should have been officially stripped of the captaincy then, but the club held back, accepting Moore's claims that he had been misconstrued in the press (that's a new one eh?). Now he wants to fuck off and play in some diddy under twenty one's contest that gets less coverage than showjumping dressage while the people who pay him and the fans who have backed him are left to hope we can win the most important games of the season without our symbolically most important player.
He quite simply can't come back from this. He should be sold and the sooner the better. He's a diddy half the time anyway.
And as for Farina, a nothing as a player and a manager who has achieved sod all despite having players like Viduka and Kewell, why is he still moaning? Rangers have agreed to do everything he's asked.
There's nothing like some fanny greeting and still arguing the toss after he's got his own way, but more than that, why is he poking his nose into business that doesn't concern him?
What has what Rangers do have to do with him? Would he allow his captain to piss all over team morale and get away with it? Take Moore Farina, and don't bring him back. Good luck in the Olympics. Meanwhile Rangers will be playing in matches that actually matter with a skipper that hopefully gives a toss about the club.
