Cameron deserves a shot. If he takes it, great. If not, it’s up to him — and that’s how these young lads earn their place. Truth is, one player won’t disguise the bigger job that’s still to do at the club.
Where we actually are
We’re at an interesting, awkward point. Plenty of fans feel we should be operating at a higher level, and you can see why. On the other hand, results in recent times haven’t matched that expectation. It feels like a slow rebuild under Mcinnes/Cavangh, a step-by-step process rather than an overnight fix. That means treats like giving youth a chance sit alongside the reality that some signings will be needed to stabilise the squad.
Cameron and the youth question
Young players often bring something different — energy, unpredictability, a bit of spark. Cameron seems to have that in him. For now he’s a squad option who could push for a starting spot. Whether he’s a long-term answer is another matter. The sensible way is to blood him when appropriate, let him make mistakes, and see if he grows into one of the regulars.
What we should be aiming for
Ideally the club nails a few simple priorities: win games, bring through academy talent, improve recruitment so signings are clearly better than what we've had, and build a sensible resale model so the finances stack up. Add managerial stability so whoever is in charge gets time to implement a plan, and you have the right environment for youngsters and new signings alike.
So yes, I want Cameron to get minutes. But I want the club to be clearer and sharper across the board — structure, recruitment and stability. If we see that, plus a few wins, opinion around Ibrox will turn fast. For now, patience mixed with ambition is the only sane stance.
