Allyup 174 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Everyone knows that if the bead rattlers are drawing that the ref  just keeps the game going till they get the winning goal. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
Leeds_Bear 8,110 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 If only goals scored by Rangers counted we’d have won the league. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
hooooootchy 405 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 Trying not to look at this as an 'if my auntie had baws... ' point. Why are we only" 80 minute champions "? Is it mental toughness that's been mentioned, is it lack of experience and of players who have won leagues. Is it over confidence thinking we can see out games with a goal lead, is it failure to take our chances when dominating and not killing off teams? Probly a bit of it all. I think Gerrard did try and rectify some of this, Davis coming back, a proven winner, experienced former captain. Defoe a clinical striker to help kill off games. It seems to me hes learning and I'm feeling good about us being 90 minute champions next year Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RobertN 390 Posted May 23, 2019 Share Posted May 23, 2019 We did drop a lot of points late on and they scored a lot of late winners need to learn from this for next season we need to have the game out of sight near full time which means having lots of quality attacking options available Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I'm just wonder why that would be the case I don't think it's a lack of fitness in fact Rapid complemented us on that so what could it be? I wonder if it's a lack of mental toughness? The one thing about teams who are used to winning is they always believe right until the end and that can often make the difference in a close game I would suggest it equates to us conceding late on for a few draws mainly early on in the season and the fact they turned 3 draws into wins after Christmas, which undoubtedly changed the direction of where the title ended up. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Copland bear 7,966 Posted May 26, 2019 Share Posted May 26, 2019 Someone should tell the manager and team a game can past for 95mins now not 80 We could have won the league if those cheating, pedo harbouring scum had not started a campaign against us in 2012 and get us thrown out the league.  Failure next season is not a option , don't want a great run in europa league, don't want the league or Scottish cups TITLE 55 MUST BE DELIVERED NEXT SEASON AND STOPPING THEM DOING 9, and we will have our bus tour and show these cunts what a real crowd is Thermopylae 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Reminds me of kids now getting certificates at school because they took part in instead of winning anything. Whole thing gives me the boak. Our standards are slowly being diminished.
