Would far rather have Wallace at LB, no contest. Wish the club could sort things out with him

It will be Flanagan, who was on the bench on Sunday .
Fans need to accept that Wallace wont play for Rangers again , for whatever reason .It could be fitness or discipline but he is finished at Ibrox .Apart from 2 sub appearances he has not kicked a ball for 18 months so he wont suddenly be called in , if he was in contention he would have played before Halliday who is hopeless at left back.

Back in December against St Johnstone, he got the call into the squad when injuries struck so I don’t think it’s far fetched. It’s a strange situation though, in that it’s not as if he’s completely banished and trains with the youth team. He regularly appears in the training galleries posted in the buildup to games (was in today’s one too), so he’s still around the squad even if he never gets a go.

Surely that’s a bit harsh on Halliday! Admittedly limited footballer, but think he’s done a pretty decent job adapting to an unfamiliar position this season. Obviously though, if decisions were being made purely on ability, Wallace would be in there first.

Yeah , Wallace got on in that game but was he picked in the position for the next one , nope.Has he been on the bench since , nope .Accept it , he`s done at Ibrox .
As for Halliday I say hopeless , you say limited , basically we are both saying he is not good enough and if Wallace was fit and well regarded he would walk into the team before him.
