Looks like a dive tbh. 

Only reason he is getting the benefit of the doubt is because of how ridiculous it is.

Definitely not a dive.  It was easier to score than to try to get a penalty.

[Rangers Women]

The women's team are poor for the money we expend on them.

Not planning to stalk him btw.

Dumbarton Road, Partick and if you aren't stalking him why do you need to know where it is??

Matondo at least scores on occasion. Lawrence is finished and went in to hiding in the Old Firm.

With the transfer fee and his wages he's been a huge waste of money.  

[Balogun]

Balogun was outstanding today.   Just pipped Cantwell for MOTM for me.

I would play him and Goldson in back four from now on.  Goldson plays better when Balogun is there (or maybe it just appears that way).   After he got the face injury we brought in Souttar who is a bomb scare.

I've followed Rangers since 1960 and this is the worst Rangers team I've ever seen.

The defence is weak, the midfield is ineffective, and the front men, when they do get service, rarely make good use of it.

And why oh why does Tavernier have to take every throw in, every corner, and every free kick?

I beat you as I'm 1950s.  I agree with some of your post but worst ever???  No chance.

Matondo has done more than Lawrence, yet people call for Lawrence to start more than Rabbi.

Both are awful.  Lawrence at least tries.

[Dessers]

Dessers plays as if he was at training.    He misses far too many great chances in the most important games.   He can't hold up the ball.   He gives up if he doesn't get a foul awarded.   I'd sell if we could get our  money back  (or close).   

[Fabio Silva]

Promises much and delivers little.   No benefit to the team whatsoever.

How many games has Ridvan been injured for? I don't think I can remember him being consistently available for a decent period of time. If that is the case then we need to sell him and try to upgrade.

Being better than Barisic isn't the best reason for keeping him.  I'd sell him and bring in someone else.

Last thought for the night from me.

First team wage bill is approximately £48 million.

Can't believe what I saw tonight, that was absolutely abysmal, we showed nothing at all from the start, in fact that's the third match in a row we either lost or nearly lost a goal inside the first minute, even by our own recent standards, this was terrible, we looked like a team that was on it's knees, and chucked it completely.

I tend to be positive and optimistic but I'm no naive, I know we're not a good team but we do have better players than every other club in Scotland other than them, going for a title and to put in a performance like that, so insipid, uninspired, scared and just down right lazy is unforgivable, there's zero leadership in that dressing room, Clement does exude leadership but when the players go onto that pitch, there's no one you can hang your hat on to deliver when it really matters, who have we got that can inspire their teammates or fire them up, just get a song out of them? Nobody.

I'm not surprised we dropped more points, I can handle that, these things can happen, it's the manner we dropped them without a fight or a fuss that kicks you in the balls, a club filled with perennial losers.

A good post and I highlighted the most relevant point.

We have needed leadership on-field for a few years now.   Tav and Goldson are not leaders, they show no drive for others to follow, neither show any ability to inspire or cajole others.    They show a defeatist attitude instead of a winning mentality when the chips are down.    A more gutless pair it's difficult to find.

Reportedly on a massive wage as well.

Another player we are stuck with unless we punt him on loan and pick up a decent chunk of his wages in the process.

The money we have spent and invested on players who have provided absolutely no significant return is borderline criminal.

Our wage bill for first team playing staff was about £48 million last financial year which was up £10 million on the previous year.

He’s had an operation. Not just a sore thumb.

Pretty sure most people are on medication or have recovery time after any surgery in hospital no?

Might have had it done under a local not general anaesthetic.

Wright, Barisic, Jack, Roofe, McLaughlin, Lammers, Balogun and Davies 100% need to go.

Don't care if Silva, Dessers, Yilmaz, Raskin, Dowell, Lawrence and Goldson left either.

I'd only keep Balogun for another year out of that lot of 15.

It’s cheap tat as well. Would much rather they just sent a unique scarf every year rather than trying to change it up.

I'd rather we just get the  membership card (and tickets for away games )?

[MyGers 24/25]

They should give people an option to decline the renewal pack.    I expect the majority have no need of the wash bag, wooden sign and metal badge.    It would save at least a bit of money for the Club.

Mate, bit off topic but while you're here...

What happens if RM gets a request from authorities to supply IPs of people? Think I remember gogzy talking about it years ago but can't remember what he said about it.

Suppose what I'm really wondering is if some of the other mob are on here on Sunday looking for things to report under the new laws, what happens?

Good question, mate.   I'll get back to you.
