Love these Official Match threads 

[Bigsasasfloppyhair 13,310]

Excellent match threads!!

Rangers to win 4-0

Goals from Forrester x 2, Miller and Wallace

Wes, Tav, Kiernan, Wilson, Wallace, Halliday, Holt, Ball, Forrester, Mckay, Miller

[Mr Blue 64]

Think we'll demolish them, roll on Sunday.

[soulboy 2,518]

Is there only 5 subs allowed for this game. If so who's not going to make the bench going by recent game time Law will not make it not sure who the other will be.

[ZZed 4,510]

time to win part 2 of our strange treble 

[STEPPS BOY 73,838]

I'd rest every player possible ahead of taigs game.

 

 

[JFK-1 516]

After watching Dumbarton sitting with 10 of their men in their own box tonight i'm wondering if Peterhead will also make this a repeat of that.  Dumbarton had other issues to be concerned about, a point could have helped them but for Peterhead it's all or nothing.

I would say they won all they could hope for by getting to this final against the biggest support in the country and winning a share of the gate, their chances of winning the actual match range from slim at best to no chance at all.  They got their pay day no matter what.  Let's hope they don't make this a non event of a football match.  

[Escobar 13,676]

7-3 Rangers.

[giffnockger 4,840]

Bring it on

[Prso's headband 35,382]

Rory McAllister is an annoyance and seems to like scoring against us. 

I really hope we go out and win by 4 or 5 but if they play the way they did tonight it'll be a slog, although am sure that's because they knew the league was won weeks ago.

I like the way our official two @Rangers_no1 @OceanRain are setting about these threads. Keep it up guys.

You waste no time in posting these haha. I was going to say you should be the official match thread creator, but tonight was the first win we had in the three threads you've created. I have a 100% win record, must do better @OceanRain 

By my reckoning @Rangers_no1 you get the official "timaloy" semi thread.

I agree. I'm not jinxing that one.

[1690tamRFC 5,001]

Honestly believe after the fact we've now secured the league, it'll relieve a lot of pressure off the lads (most of them) that have not won anything in football yet, and that will allow them to relax and express themselves a lot more, I honestly think er will score at least 5 on Sunday and conceded nothing, which will stand us in good stead against the tarriers. We're fucking back and we welcome the chase.

I wouldn't. A pressure game in front of a packed Hampden will give the team good preparation for the Bheasts game. 

Looking at those past results, forgot it was Peterhead we first faced on our rise back to the top league. Horrible result 

[GOAT 30,449]

Im actually more worried about Sunday than I am next Sunday. 

Get this cup won Rangers and never ever have our name in this cup again.

[blueretro 704]

That was quite a result they got at Falkirk. Maybe they won't be the pushovers we all think

[ThatNightInFlorence 696]

Can't wait for this game now. Looking forward to a wee day out at Hampden and a few beers. 

 

Now that the pressure is off us in the league I hope we go on and put in a performance.

 

My team would be:

Wes

Tav Kiernan Wilson Wallace

Forrester Ball Halliday 

MOH Miller McKay 

 

Only reason I would start Ball as opposed to having Halliday in the CDM role and playing Holt is I reckon that Ball is a certainty to play against the tims so some game time would be good for him. 

[siddiqi_drinker 14,635]

Think I'll watch the game on BBC Alba, got to be less painful than having to endure Tom Miller.

It was actually the brain child of yours truly 

 

But aye, the wee badges etc make it look better on the eye 

[giffnockger 4,840]

Come on Rangers! Few goals and a clean sheet, another trophy for the fine collection.
