Former Rangers striker Ryan Hardie has endured a tough time since leaving Ibrox to join Blackpool in July. Down the pecking order at the Gers, he left in search of first-team football and the English club’s fans were delighted to secure his services. Yet, opportunities have been few and far between. 
Blackpool sign striker…
He always scored lots of goals for the reserves unfortunately for him he was never able to do it at a decent first team level . Its a bit like Dodoo , its best not to over react when he scores a goal or two.
How many games did he start for Rangers?
Just 2 league starts for Rangers, 15-odd sub appearances
I don’t think that is enough to assess a young professional. The loan system if used correctly will either make him or break him. By all accounts he should come back a better player. If I was him I would not wait too long, If a chance comes even with another club assess the situation and make a choice. He is young however, football is a very short career.
