mitre_mouldmaster 21,509 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 What will everyone consider an acceptable 2nd half to the season? Personally I would say that finishing second and no more than 15 points of the top, with a decent showing in the cup would be the baseline for acceptable. Success would be to finish second with a cup win, or finish the season within single digits of the top spot. We are not in a position to realistically win the league, so cant use that as a milestone this season. I know there will no doubt be the usual 'Anything but winning the league is unacceptable for Rangers!', but its not realistic for this situation.

Prso's headband 34,990 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Win the Scottish cup. Attempt to mount a challenge but I’d be happy with the progress if we finished 12 or less points behind, at least take it to the split. Consistently beat the rest of the league and beat them at least once in the last 2 OF. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

SeparateEntityMyArse 53,260 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I'm optimistic and expecting that we'll finish at least second, win the same or more points than the bheasts, and not get defeated by any team outwith the bheasts. Think that's fair. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Smile 26,592 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 I have no real expectations for this season now we have made a cunt of this season once again, my hope is next season we get in a decent Manager and we use this season to get a system of play in place and the new signings all excel.

Ideally I want the league also, worst case no more than finishing second with a 10 point gap. To finish the season without beating them, winning the cup and a comfortable second minimum, is an absolute failure as far as i'm concerned.

The Godfather 70,782 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Comfortable 2nd place finish and getting to at least the final of the Scottish cup or win it if avoid the taigs in draw. Beating them would be good for a change! Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

the brown brogue 1,853 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Regarding the league, we're 11 points back from the taigs as it stands, I would consider it a success if we could 'win' the 2nd half of the season, get the gap down to single figures and at least give them a scare going into next season. Regarding the Scottish cup, anything other than winning it is failure. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

BridgeIsBlue 66,498 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 The games after the international break effectively killed our season. Finish in single digits behind them, 4 points minimum in the two old firm games and win the Scottish Cup. Be a good platform to build on for the summer whilst we get a new manager in.

If Murty achieves that, there is no way he wont be getting the gig next season. Would be a cracking result. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Gazza2258 478 Posted January 16, 2018 Share Posted January 16, 2018 Kick on and keep with them, and if not a challenge, comfortable 2nd. Stop losing to the utter shite below us in the league, especially at Ibrox. Get new signings bedding in ASAP. Hopefully end up signing at least a couple of the loans as they had a great few months, prep to mount a serious attempt at group qualification for Europe. Losses to Killie, Hibs, Dundee, Hamilton etc. damaged us immeasurably this season. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
