  1. I don’t think Waghorn is the best player we ever had , but he was far from the worst. However, the article isn’t about his football skills. It’s about how he struggled to cope with the pressure and how it dragged him down into depression. Thankfully, he seems to be coming out the other side and has the balls to talk about it. So as a former Ranger, who still speaks highly of the club, I wish him nothing but a happy life. 

  2. I thought the boy Kelly in midfield looked a decent player. Also thought Barjonas had a decent game. The boys fought back well and could even have stolen it near the end. From what I’ve been told by a pal, some of them didn’t do themselves justice tonight. That’s a pity in a final but I’m sure they’ll bounce back. 

  3. I thought Gerrard got most things right today, and I still think he will be a good manager. He can’t legislate for fucking idiots like Morelos or for stray passes from players under no pressure. I thought his team today fought hard for him and that’s always a good sign. If we give him time,I think he’ll come good. Our biggest hope is that he’s pitting his wits against that fuckin idiot Lennon. 

  4. I believe that we’ve made some progress, but not as much as I was hoping for. I think the football we play is better but we are nowhere near clinical enough. We also have too many players who don’t have a winning mentality and that is a huge problem when you’re trying to challenge a team that have won 7 trophies in a row. Progress can only really be measured in trophies when you’re Rangers, and if we go another year without winning then we’re fucked. 

  5. The boys a decent prospect but he would have made no difference last night. It’s a midfielder that can see a defence splitting pass that we need. McCrorie is useful if your trying to make it a scrap,which is by he did so well against the tarriers on the 29th. He’ll go on to earn a decent living but I don’t think he’ll ever be a world beater. I also think it’s unprofessional to be having a go at the manager in public. That’s something he should have the balls to do in the managers office. The whole thing is probably a non story though. 

     

  6. It won’t say much for him if he chucks it after a season for fuck sake. I still think there’s a good manager in there. He has a lot to learn, but he’s taken on a massive club for his first job and that was never going to be easy. We should also remember that he took us into the Europa league and we didn’t disgrace ourselves there. We’ve also beaten the tarriers this season and for those comparing him to Pedro and Warburton, they should remember that. If he doesn’t learn from his mistakes, he’ll be another also ran and won’t last till next Xmas. I’m hoping that’s not the case and I’m still relatively confident that he’s the man for the job. 

  7. I like Morelos but there’s no doubt that some of his antics are cringeworthy. If we get a good price for himinthe summer then I would be happy to see him move on. I watch the matches expecting something special from him, but also shitting myself that he’s going to do something stupid. Hopefully he’ll have a good end to the season and a club will pay a decent price for him. I’ll wish him all the best and hope that we can find a goal scorer who is less of a liability. 

  8. Goldston looks like a bundle of nerves recently. I think he loses confidence if he makes a mistake in the game and then sort of hopes that the ball doesnt come near him for a while. I don’t think he’ll be a big miss against celtic as I don’t particularly rate him of Worral. 

  9. The only positive to betaken from tonight. Looks like he’s played for us for years and was the best midfielder on the park by miles. It also looks like he is one of these players who’ll be a 8 or 9 every game. 

  10. The most annoying thing for me just now is that we’re going to be 10 points behind a bang average tarrier team. After the disappointment of tonight, it’s hard to be positive. However, I do believe that we have made improvements under Gerrard, and he needs to be given time. If we get past Aberdeen then we’re definitely capable of beating the Taigs in a one off game. We can forget about the league this year, which is gutting, but can still go all the way in the cup. Inconsistency is our main problem and that is something we will have to address for next season. 

  11. This puts the club in a great position when the time comes for him to move on. Personally, I think that will be in the summer, but we’ve made our hand a lot stronger when we’re dealing with clubs sniffing about him. The tarriers have been doing this for a while and to be fair it’s paid dividends for them. Good sensible move for all concerned. We seem to be a lot more professional in our business management than we were a few years ago. 

  12. The banner’s a wee bit below the belt to be fair. Anything about Morelos himself is fair game but slagging off somebody’s maw is taking liberties. However, he’s a big boy and I’m sure he’ll get over it. Score a couple in the replay and get it right fucking up them is the best retaliation for him.

    The leagues has been over since the Kilmarnock game on the 23 we have a tough month of March ahead.

    Unfortunately,I have to agree with this. I’d love to be more positive about things but the Kilmarnock defeat was a severe boot in the balls for us. I still think we’ve plenty to play for with the cup and to finish the season with as many wins as possible. Sad to say it but I feel the league is beyond us. 

  14. I like the cut of this boys gib. He looks naturally fit and isn’t afraid of a tackle. I never usually get too excited about a player early doors, but i think we’ve uncovered a little gem here. 

  15. I’ve never understood why folk get their nickers in a twist about these things. I couldn’t give a fuck what anyone shouts at me at a football match. But if your going to be offended at least be consistent. I never heard a word from Steve Clark at the weekend after celtic fans sang about a sad orange bastard, however, it was a different story last night when he was allegedly a sad Fenian bastard. So if people are going to greet about name calling, at least be fucking even handed about it. 

  16. Although I’m still scunnered after yesterday, I’m still confident that Gerrard will be a good manager. Very few people walk into jobs and be the real deal right away. He has made quite a few mistakes, but has also done some good things since arriving. To get us into the group stages in the Europa was something I didn’t see happening. Hopefully we’ll give him a decent chance and another couple of transfer windows. If we do I’m confident he can take us to the next stage.

    Goal for me has always been a strong second place and narrow the gap.

    Not overly gutted as I never bought into the idea of winning it this year.

    Problem for me is that without Morelos, I have no real faith in us beating teams. If he goes in the summer, or even if he stays, we need to get somone else in who can play his style as I dont think that person is Defoe.

    At the start of the season I didn’t think we could win the league. However, after realising how bang average celtic are I thought we had a decent chance . I still think they are bang average but unfortunately,we are no better. Games like that today are must wins and we aren’t consistent enough to do it. So disappointed after that and embarrassing to have to admit to being practically a one man team. 

  18. First time seeing the Gers was actually at the Oval in Belfast against Glentoran. It ws either 66 or 67 and was a 1-1 draw. Glentoran had a fantastic team at that time and they also drew with Benfica round about that time. I can remember the crowd that night ws incredible with lots of Linfield fans there supporting the Gers. I think Rodger Hynd scored for Rangers and started my love affair with the Teddies. 

  19. When I saw the replay of the McGregor incident on Wednesday, I honestly thought we’d got away with one. It’s not the first time he’s been a bit naughty this season. I was half expecting the ban so I’m not that surprised. What does surprise me is the fact that Brown, Simunovic and Burke have got off Scott free. It makes you think that all the greetin and moanin done by some other clubs is paying off. If that’s the case then the football in this country is fucked.
