Cambuslang Rangers boss warns axe will fall after cup exit, as he targets points run

dailyrecord.co.uk:

Cambuslang Rangers boss Paul McColl has threatened to wield the axe after his side crashed out of the West of Scotland Cup second round at the hands of Second Division Glasgow Perthshire.The game was locked at 1-1 before Perthshire won 4-3 on penalties and McColl had no qualms about the result – but wasn’t pleased with the performance.“They should have beat us, we were awful, and they deserved to win the game on the second half,” he admitted.“We seem to have a recurring problem with having players out in big games, and on Saturday we had five boys at the side that would have started.“That gave other guys a chance and they never took it.

It was just absolutely dreadful.“Some of them aren’t good enough, and that’s it. It’s maybe time to move a few guys on and see what we can do.“We can’t score goals.

If we could score goals or had a natural goalscorer he would have 15 or 20 goals by now, and our top scorer has four.“It went to penalties and two boys missed, so that’s it.

It’s very disappointing and I keep telling them that’s three cups we’re out early on and that’s no use at all.“We need to try and get a few out and get another couple in, but that’s hard, because all the good players are signed.”McColl has targeted taking points from their next three games, in a bid to climb away from the First Division relegation zone.Camby, who are 14th in the 16-team league, host sixth-placed Maybole on Saturday, and their next two league games see them visit 13th-placed Neilston – who are a point above, having played one fewer game – and Renfrew, who are four points above in 11th.McColl said: “Maybole aren’t on a great run but have had a couple of good results.“We’re at home and we hope to get something out of it.
