thebluedoo 2,652 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Ah opinions are like arseholes every ones got one and some folk talk out of theirs. As far back as I can remember an away game against that mob has always been considered a difficult task, its always been like that. On numerous occasion's we have defied the odds and the pundits and came away with all 3 points, it ain't going to be easy but it certainly is not impossible. We have gone there and been beaten with teams packed with more quality, experience and skill than the current squad. While over the next 5 days my emotions will rise and fall with every minute that ticks by ranging from we are going to get done to we are going to do this but the truth is I have no idea how this is going to pan out but I will be fucked if I will be cowering in fear of a team that got beat of The Imps of Gibraltar I am actually buzzing for this, come on Rangers Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

He wasnt great the last time we played so I dont see him as the difference between the teams at all. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

LaudrupsPatrickBoots 13,510 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 It's always the same before we play them. Hardly surprising and it only takes the pressure off of us because nobody expects us to take anything from the game. That mob are that confident they'll give us a pumping that I honestly think if we went there and took a point off them it would actually damage their morale and hurt their fans more than a defeat would to us.

Jmcdonald1990 40 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Cant wait for these cunts to choke on their words. We need to take our chances. I'm confident for this. 3-2 Rangers. No surrender Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
boyd09 390 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 We will shock a lot of people on saturday , i think we will outpass them , they will get frustrated big time fancy us to win 3,1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
K.A.I 36,183 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 The fact I don't feel confident is usually a good sign - so here's hoping. If we want it more and remain organised and disciplined then why not? Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
The Godfather 71,886 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Just now, K.A.I said: The fact I don't feel confident is usually a good sign - so here's hoping. If we want it more and remain organised and disciplined then why not? I just don't see us keeping a clean sheet and right away that's a concern. Anything can happen in these games of course but we haven't strung a few passes together since the season started. We look honking in midfield and that's one of the areas we dominated to win last season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Did they not learn from last year with a squad weaker than this 1? Cunts Best way to go into an OF game imo. Puts the pressure on them to come at us. Im not as confident as I usually am for OF games but I can see it being a lot closer game than many in the press are expecting it to be.

BluebearDory 3,694 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Depends which Rangers team turns up on Saturday. Some games this season we have looked like we are playing in quicksand it's so laboured. Other times it comes together and it is a joy. Knots in stomach just thinking about it tbh Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Jack The Flipper 5,936 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I'd right us off as well to be honest, i'm not impressed at all so far and can only hope our energy levels and speed of play rise. We are not good enough at the moment, it hurts to admit it but we're just not. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Yeah that's my worry as well, they will come at us 100 mile an hour and close us down,and we will still be trying to play from the back,warburton will get a shock at the speed of these mutants Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I am not over confident but NEVER EVER write your team off before they kick a ball ffs If the fans have that attitude how can you expect the team to go out and be positive. Both have to believe we can win until the final whistle or we are fucked before we start !!! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Since this is a thread regarding the media writing us off I thought it was clear that distinction had been made - I can understand why people in papers etc are writing us off - if I worked in that same capacity I would do the same. I'm not going to defend my fandom, people who know me know exactly where I stand and how obsessed I am with Rangers, but staying true to the topic at hand - I stick by everything I said.

As do I. No offence intended but your willingness to agree we should be written off doesn't sit well with me and I hope the team go out with a far more positive attitude Saturday whatever the result. We will always get written off by the press but once we start agreeing with them it's game over . And for the record if we play to our best I think we could piss all over them. It's anyone's game.

Gaz52 11,837 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 Rodgers arse collapses as a manager when it really matters. Seen it all through his reign at Liverpool, he only knows how to play one way. But unfortunately Warburton is completely the same Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Gaz52 11,837 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 I think if it were Tynecastle or Pittodire this weekend we'd still be the underdogs, that's how basic our start to the season has been. We've got a squad of players with a point to prove and they couldn't ask for a better stage to show what they're made of If they put in a whimper of a performance again then it's not even about challenging Celtic this season, it'll be about challenging Aberdeen and Hearts to 2nd place.

Bluepeter9 5,167 Posted September 6, 2016 Share Posted September 6, 2016 The reality is that statistically the home team wins the match but as we all know it's the old firm - any fking thing can happen, and usually does! I've gone into OF games being supremely confident and we have lost - I have seen OF games when I thought we had no chance and won. It's a rolercoaster but that's what makes it great! 93rd minute Edu type goal - that'll do! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
