I don't. Rangers fans would rather watch Rangers than any other team. There are fans who, whatever reason, can't be at that game tonight; the option to watch the game on tv should be there. The first match was televised, and that was at Ibrox, it doesn't make sense that the Replay isn't.

Looking forward to this, as a team Kilmarnock are nowhere near where we want to be, but beating them is a must to show progression.

I reckon tonights going to be a night it clicks and poor Kilmarnock are going to feel the wrath for all our sitters in recent weeks.

Not woke up confident for this one. Few beers before the bus will no doubt sort that.

I can't wait to get on it. (The beers, no the bus, fucking crossing the Kingston Bridge at rush hour won't be fun) 

[B1872 20,719]

The fucking buzz has kicked in big time. Boozer at half 4 can't come quick enough. Our supporter bus is leaving at 6 so hopefully gives us plenty of time for a few beers in Kilmarnock as well - WATP!

Think harry Forrester had a good game on Sat, missed a few chances, but he was getting into good positions and sprayed a couple of great balls that should have been finished off.

 

3-0 Gers

Don't understand where all this confidence is coming from. We're struggling to find the net against Championship teams and we've managed to score once in 180 minutes against SPL teams, at Ibrox.

It is to do with 'solidarity payments' made to FAs  who no longer have teams competing in the tournament. If the SFA were to go ahead and grant TV coverage of the Replay tonight it could result in a fine and the withholding of the solidarity payment. UEFA do this to prevent FAs from playing all cup games on the same night as UCL.

I presume that Rangers are bound by the same rules and this prevents us broadcasting on RTV.

Flipping annoying though as I want to watch it rather that going back 20 years to listening to radio coverage.

It's called being a supporter! ??

You can be a supporter and have a realistic opinion at the same time. Of course I would like to see us win by three or four but the goals have dried up and the guy who scored in our last game is ineligible tonight.

Because we're Rangers.

 

and we're playing fucking Kilmarnock.

[harlands plater 16,977]

We've scored five goals in our last five games. A cause for concern?

Every team we've played has parked the bus. As soon as teams come out and attack us or we get an early goal it's a totally different story. My fear isn't not scoring it's our vulnerability at the back. However I reckon with 10,000 plus Bears there tonight it'll give us that extra edge. Pretty much see it being a 90 minute sash bash! ??

No cause for concern cause this team is more than capable of scoring 5 in the next game, will we, I'm more than happy with a 1-0 win for us.

Picking up the girlfriend today, so the football will have to take a back seat for a week.

I will listen to the radio for updates though and maybe get a we chance to come on here as after travelling all day, she may just want to rest and relax more than go into the cold night.

C'mon the Rangers, let's get this done.

[desman75 16]

I can see there being a lot of space on the pitch tonight, Killie being the PL team and at home will not get away with sitting in and letting us control the ball, with them hoping to nick one on the break. I predict a very open end to end type of game the polar opposite of what we saw at the weekend, which makes me think there may well be goals in this one!

RTV have no broadcasting rights in the UK for live matches.

Really need to make the chances count tonight. Miller and Waghorn need to find their shooting boots!
