  1. It's easy to look for non tryers when the shit hits the fan but for me Rangers never lacked passion or will to win and everyone will be gutted about yesterday. Rangers lacked ability,leadership and belief and hopefully a new manager can sort that but he's got a big task ahead.

    I wish that were true. I think a lack of passion and will to win sums up this squad perfectly. Your other points are spot on.

  2. If anyone just caught the report there then you will join me in having a laugh at this joke of a country's rhat infested media

    I'll sum it up

    The game ended in controversy as Rangers' Bilel Mohsni appeared to kick out and the punch Motherwell's Lee Erwin following Mohsni's refusal to shake Erwin's hand... Nothing about the push in the back or the punch Mohsni received himself

    Showed plenty of pictures of the Motherwell fans in the stands bouncing about and were saying stuff like "A great day for this group of supporters" but absolutely nothing about them invading the pitch and running over to taunt Rangers fans. When Aston Villa fans invaded the pitch earlier on in the season, the media said football had returned to the dark ages, but it didn't get a mention on our news.

    All about a big bad Rangers player bursting open a guys mouth even though he was provoked and Rangers failing miserably

    We're up against it in this country, not just against every single club and their fans but every single media outlet as well, horrible time to be a Rangers fan.

    Never ever is it a horrible time to be a Rangers fan.

  3. Wherever we're playing next season and whoever our manager is, his No. 1 priority must be sign a decent goalkeeper! I'm not looking for another Goram, just an decent average keeper will do me.

    If he can kick the ball that would help.

    Like I said No 1 priority.

  4. Watch the game! As things stand we aren't going up, so whatever happens it can't get any worse. BUT IT CAN GET A HELL OF A LOT BETTER! Watch the game support the team and hopefully cheer us back to the top league. How would you feel if we go up and you didn't watch?

  5. It happened recently i think may have been Ronaldinho who crossed the byline to tie his boots in a match in Brazil.

    Let me get this right, you're saying if a players momentum takes him past the byline, if the ball is played towards him he can back on the field of play to gain possession and by-pass the offside rule as he was off the park?

    The crucial thing in this case is it was a Motherwell player that played the ball towards him. If it had been a Rangers player playing the ball to Foster as soon as he steps on the pitch to collect it he is in an offside position.

  6. You don't know the offside rule.

    When Law shoots, Foster is offside (even despite being off the pitch) but not interfering with play.

    When the keeper makes the save and Foster tries to get involved he them becomes active in what's described in the rules as 'phase 2'.

    If you could bypass the offside rule by being off the park then you could just stick someone like Boyd up top and ask him to stand 1 yard past the byline and latch on top passes behind the defence by running on the field the second the ball is played.

    No not true. Boyd would get booked for either leaving or entering the field of play without permission. As to your other point Foster becomes active only after the Motherwell player plays the ball. So he can't be offside.

  7. Ofcourse he was offside, being off the pitch doesn't discount you from being offside otherwise poachers would just stand 1 yard off the field or even in the goals to bypass the rule.

    So if Law had scored it wouldn't have counted because Foster was offside? He wasn't offside, he didn't attempt to get involved until after the keeper played the ball. You cannot be offside if you're not on the pitch.

    I remember years ago John Greig scoring under the same circumstances. It was a cup final against Aberdeen. The goal was chalked off and Greig was booked for ungentlemanly conduct. He wasn't offside though.

  8. Like when? He's gash, never a player.

    Here's a link to the highlights:

    http://www.bbc.co.uk/sport/0/football/32925898

    30 second: Law chance, Foster runs down the wing, pulls a shite cross back, ball breaks luckily to Law who shoots... then Foster, who was off the field at the time of the shot, laughably runs to collect the ball... YOUR OFF FUCKING SIDE SON. Vuckic is gesturing to him to leave it.... He doesn't even know the rules.

    58 sec: Motherwell 1st Goal: Tbf, attack came from the left side but he's so far up the pitch Vuckic is back covering for him, he's nowhere to be seen for Motherwells 1st.

    1min 55: Motherwell 2nd goal: Not the main culprit but 1 of the players in the centre of the box who failed to jump and challenge McManus.

    2 mins 20: Motherwell 3rd goal: His fault. Law offers him up the outside leaving a gap in the centre of midfield, plays a shite pass across the face to Murdoch, pish ball is off target, and Motherwell are away 3 vs 2. (By the time his piss pass is intercepted, he's standing in Motherwell's D).

    The very next highlight is another Motherwell raid our down the right, with Foster nowhere to be seen. Law tries to cover for him and falls on his arse. Ainsworth misses an open goal from the penalty spot. Should have been 4, and would have been Fosters fault, again.

    And that's just from a 3min highlight reel. He's fucking shocking, and a liability.

    The thing is Foster wasn't offside. He didn't come back on until after the Motherwell keeper touched the ball.
