K.A.I 36,183 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I'm with the op to an extent - there's been more games like last season than some care to admit (even though the improvement overall is there to see) if that doesn't sound like too much of a contradiction ?

Yes we need a more clinical finisher, but we created chance after chance, KM missed three chances and their GK Langfield made some great saves. On the other side of the coin we were lucky not to be punished a few times when sloppy passing gave them a chance. However I don't know who you were watching the last few seasons if, you say we are no better this season, but it certainly wasn't Rangers.

RFC55 108,729 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I must miss the long hopeful ball from goalkeeper to a big immobile striker. I must miss the games we lead away to alloa 2-0 only to lose 3-2. I must've missed St mirren dominating us, creating next to no chances, the midfield standing looking at the ball going over their heads all day. Between yesterday and alloa away I think we created more chances than we created in the whole of last season. We Aint the finished article but we are fuck all like last season. Statues moved more than us last year Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Just shows we weren't such a bad team last season..... st mitten are a decent side - surprised with some of the players they have that they are not further up the league . Langfield was in inspired form yesterday and yet still we won - but there are many negative fucks on here that even the day after we go 11 points clear there are folk that agree with the nonsense in the OP.

Granted it wasn't our best of the season but I give credit to Alex Rae for his organisation of St.Mirren, yet we still managed to have 64% possession, 21 shots on goals,(7 on target) and 12 corners; this against a side that had won its last 4 games. I'm quite interested to see what tactics need addressing that Mark Warburton fucked up, according to you. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You are honestly the most mental cunt I've ever seen on a forum of any kind. Regarding the negative fucks comment. Livingston 3-0 win earlier in the season at home, crap performance and Warburton and the players said so and said they need to improve as a win was great but performances can't be of that standard. Everyone lapped it up and rightfully so - so what's the difference? it's the same thing. The fans can't say it? we should always want to do better.

I think we are now at the stage performances are 2nd in importance levels. By all accounts hibs played well in the last two games yet have lost by an aggregate of 6-2. The start of the season showed what we are all about IMO and now it's come to the nitty gritty we've shown the other side. We can dig and dig and dig. The amount of late goals we've scored is a credit to the players and management. It's what he had Brentford doing last year and then fitness levels it takes to still be battering a team with minutes to go in search of that winner are huge. We've tightened up at the back and stillground out wins. I thought at the start of the season MW would struggle to address the defensive issues but he's managed to tweak that and although the goals have dried up, we are still winning and still creating chances. If the chances stop coming then I'll worry Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Fuck the season we got to the uefa cup final folk were moaning we good do better - that my point folk always moaning no matter what they see - I believe in a more positive approach and an 11 point lead with 10 games to go is something we should be lauding but folk have got so fucking negative they would rather bitch and moan. How about admiring the way we kept going against a good stubborn St mirren and doing what champions do - play to the end and earn a win from what could easily have been a draw.

If the chances stop coming then I'll worry I know what your saying but our blistering performances dried up after Morton away and that was what, early October? we had the odd game since then destroying teams but generally we've been poor IMO but still nowhere near as bad as last season. I don't think we are creating great chances either tbh ... we are wasteful but have no edge or killer instinct in a lot of the games. We are dominating games that's the main positive for me. I think if we can dominate games then that's the basis of something special. A couple of quality additions (1 being a main striker) and we could be unstoppable but I worry that Warburton would rather have more attackers like O'Halloran, Forrester, King than an actual out and out clinical goalscorer.

the goal machine 7,791 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 We've not been on top form for a while but it's coming to the business end of the season and we're still winning games and creating loads of chances. We'll need to raise our game against Dundee but the players and manager will know that themselves. As for comparing it to last season, away and don't talk pish.

The last few seasons opposing teams have played Rangers and expected to win, now they are setting to not lose (proof that we are back to being a team to be feared) Two banks of 4 playing closely together is always difficult to break down. There are going to be many days like yesterday. I will certainly tolerate displays like yesterday. A clean sheet, a win and our nearest challengers dropped more points. The football this season is on a different planet from the previous 4. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I agree mate. But with this squad and these players we are still about a level down from where we need to be. But this team still create and it just seems to be chance after chance after chance. Twice this season I've thought "fuck we got lucky there" that was qots away last week and the time before that was Falkirk at home. In nearly every game IMO had we won 4, 5 or 6 nobody could argue. We seem to create chances to win 3 games never mind 1. Alloa away was a prime example. A keeper playing out of his skin and our inability to finish cost us. Hibs at home december IMO was a marker. If you think back that's when the media campaign for hibs being a premier team and possibly the best in this league. We fucked them that day. Like we did at Easter road at the start of the season. Folk on here were creaming over hibs (not you) and the fact they would stop us or infact could stop us. I've never thought at any time they'd get any closer come the end of the season than about 6 points For me some teams have been lucky to leave the park within 3 goals of us. At times compared to last season we've really not been "Rangers anymore" Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

HenleyBear 17 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 I don't think anyone would disagree that we need to improve but MW has a clear plan and preferred style of play. Did AM? ..punt the ball and hope for the best! When teams sit in the way they do it is hard to vary the play. Barca couldn't score at Ibrox when we did it! With the corners, Warbs said himself that there's no point launching it in when we don't have the height etc. Physicality could be an issue next season but certainly going to be interesting to see what we'll be like against teams that have a go. Regards MW tactics, worth noting that in the last three games, the sub's thrown on by the magic hat have scored the late winner. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

B1872 20,649 Posted February 28, 2016 Share Posted February 28, 2016 Kenny Miller missed two sitters, King missed two sitters, Holt missed a chance, O'Halloran missed a couple of chances, Tav had two good attempts on goal with free kicks, St Mirren had a couple of last ditch tackles. Oh and btw we won 1-0 and are 11 points clear at the top of the league. Not much of a brain rattling about in that big coupon of yours! ?
