2daludaludalu 390 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Didn't know when we were beat. That was how to win a cup final. Getting a bit emotional seeing Ricksen, still hard to take in. Dallas was a decent ref as well, compared to some of the incompetence and cheating shitheads we have to endure nowadays. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

pcbear 10,913 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 The lack of play acting, mouthing the ref and good general sportsmanship were also present, it never stopped the crunching tackles but it was give and take. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Colin Traive 22,685 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Had Sutton not taken Caniggia out, we’d have won that game comfortably. Fucking Mr Bean on the bench gave Ross no out ball. I’d have brought Nerlinger or even Flo on. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You’ve also got to remember that Eck was downsizing, having to replace real class with journeymen. O’Neill’s team had Hartson (6m), Sutton (6m), Lennon (6m), Thompson (2.75m), over 20m in just four players. Eck can hold his head up no problem👍 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

You'd never give up the memories of better times, but the young can at least be grateful that they don't have the memory of real Rangers teams to compare more recent ones to, because it's painful at times. Mo Ross looked like an improvement on Tav 🤣 Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I always thought he was ok, just wasn't in the same class as Reyna, or Ricksen or even Porinni or Vidmar. Would be good enough to at least be a bench player these days. No doubt he was better than Flanagan. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In that final, we were really disadvantaged bringing him on for Caniggia. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

RossS1873 1,656 Posted April 6, 2020 Share Posted April 6, 2020 Ferguson takes the game by the scruff of the neck and refuses to lose. That was a team that when Eck took over, was all over the shop, but he reminded them that it was a team of winners, and captians. Klos, Moore, Amoruso, Numan, Ferguson, Ricksen, all successful captains. With a front 3 that could change seamlessly was ahead of its time. I hate to be making statements like this but the players now should be sitting watching this seeing what it means. What they should be doing not in a play style, but in mentality .
