Yeah been in for a few games against them gets busy but not to the point you can’t move or takes ages to get a drink. Would be the preferred place to go for the game in town.

What happened at half time did we get the play it safe and try to hit them on the break team talk we absolutely looked lost stopped doing what we did well in the first half that actually cause them problems. The injuries didn’t help and Liverpool took it up a level but we just looked lost no leadership whatsoever similar to Ajax when we just sort of chucked it. The subs are baffling why wait until that late on to change it when the games gone. We could have given time to Yilmaz and got Tillman on albeit games seem to pass him by.

Looking pretty good so far been a pretty even game. But worried we might go down to 10 with this ref. I think this formation suits us better look a lot more solid might be worth sticking with for a few games but can change Davis or Jack for a more attacking player could even try Colak and Morelos instead of Arfield in games we usually dominate.

It’s Ajax and always a big ask but it’s the lack of desire and effort that’s the most worrying thing. Just don’t look like a team that’s played together just so uninterested no link up play or energy . It does look like Gio has lost the dressing room, there’s a divide with some of the players or the tactics don’t suit the players we have and it’s having an affect. Either Gio changes the team for Sunday and let’s the players know they are replaceable if not giving 100% or Gio will have to go if he can’t get the players playing.

3 of their goals are our own fault. Switching off when we know they like to get the ball back into play quick and what McLaughlin was thinking. Hopefully Gio gets this sorted but the players should have been well prepared for this game. They play the one way and it works for them but we have to stay switched on for the full game and stop passing sideways inviting pressure on . The passing sideways or taking an extra touch is costing us going forward. I don’t know why we didn’t at least try Alfie on with Colak that at least give us two players that can finish and occupy defenders.

Whole performance was poor but they were able to press us high up because we lost the midfield badly needed Aribo or Arfield in for Hagi. That’s Hagi in the 10 position and hasn’t shown enough to merit starting. Just thought that we might have changed formation and brought Lundstram (only real option to add a bit of strength in midfield) on for Hagi, Sakala for Wright and Itten for Sands and go two up top and use the wingers. Nothing worked out for us tonight no real chances. Aberdeen players went down every time we we near them to break up the game but we let them dictate the game. Clancy helped them a with their game plan but says more about him as a ref that it’s fully expected of him. Hopefully it’s just one of those nights against a team who up their game against us, and we bring in players to improve the squad/challenge the current players. Will need to see how respond after the game and hopefully just a blip. It could be a blip at the right time and ensure we get players in this window.

The lack of speed and the amount of sideways passes just plays into the other teams game plan. Aribo should have never came off and Hagi should have been on for Davis or Kamara. We have a lack of movement but when anyone does try to move into space to many players go for the safe option.

It is worrying that we take to many touches and fast link up play is rare and when we do it usually ends up with to many passes with no one wanting to shoot. It was highlighted before how much space Tav leaves between him and the CB. I thought that the formation was going to be changed so Patterson and Tav could play at same time. I think that would make us better defensively and that would give other players confidence to play more attacking.

Worrying how little clear chances we created and lack of urgency until they scored. Got it wrong going so defensive with the midfield.

Tough one but Kent just scares them moves them about to make space for other players. The others would be Roofe and Davis both of them are really clever players that showed with Roofe and the two goals and Davis ran the game from midfield

Great day especially Alfie getting a goal from a nutmeg on Brown and then getting taken off as well. We have Davis they have Brown not even close.Would have liked another few goals but they couldn’t get near us. They can’t say because they only had 10 on the park they couldn’t beat us with 11 on the park any other time.

Don’t think we finish with 11 on the park and they should have had a booking for the professional fouls. Scored two good goals and have dealt with them well. That tackle from Davis just shows how well he reads the game. Only concerns are Aribo giving the ball away but with McGregor being sent off might give him a bit more time. We need to watch the runs that Ajer makes would love for him to fuck it up and we score from it but looks easy for him then he usually continues into the box.

I was at the game yesterday and not watched any highlights. I thought he tried to keep all the players on the park rather than ref the game properly the late challenge on Arfield was a booking and thats what he should have done . He let them take the piss way time wasting and throw ins for the whole game. All I want is the refs to do their job none of this its early in the game so you get away with one. The one thats intresting is Morelos getting thrown down if that had been the other way about would have been I think the decision would have been different. The refs are poor in Scotland we need full time refs.

I think we have more squad depth and better options off the bench but we still need the new players to get up to speed and another 1 or 2 first team quality players. The tactics were wrong yesterday I think Gerrard thought he would use Aribo and Arfield to win headers and knock then onto Defoe and let him play on the shoulder. We should have used wingers and Morelos from the start and went for it from kick off. We didnt and it let them settle in and get organised. We lost one goal because of Goldson taking to many touches and getting himself in trouble. The second was late on when were chasing the game which happens. I dont think we were outplayed but they came with a plan and stuck to it. We tried a new plan when the old one was working fine and it came back to bite us. The only thing that I can take from yesterday is theres still a long way to go this season and hopfully lessons have been learned. This is more about losing to them, the way we lost and we have now put ourselves under a bit of pressure.

I noticed in one of our previous games Ojo looked done and was looking for jones to come on. If we bring on jones it doesnt change shape or play stype we would have pacey winger to use as an outball and help push us up the pitch in games like that. Since this is the second time this has happened to Ojo I was wondering if Gerrard is keeping him on the pitch so that he has to dig deep in games rather than sub him with 20 mins to go. It could just be a way to build that mentality in Ojo.

Would be fantastic but we have to win every game to keep the pressure on. With Brenda leaving it might have a negative affect on some of their players but will have to wait and see. Im sure a few wont fancy TLB management style. If things dont go his way could see the start of an epic meltdown from him and their fans.

The schools are to blame for a lot of it. As mentioned before taking a child at the age of 5 and saying you go yo this school away from friends because of your religion. I dont know if there will be any kids at that age that will understand that or actually have the actual belief in what they are being taught. Its just forced on them and theu dont get a different POV because they dont mix with other kids. Then the ones that dont take the kids to chapel or believe but they just go to that school because their Catholic. They use religion as a safety blanket to protect them from any form of questioning or poor publicity. They created all this from the start by being a victim playing minority creating schools just for them and a football club just for them. Then they spout lies for years and if you eventually tell lies for long enough it eventually becomes truth and again dont question them as they all come out shouting their usual. Its the empty barrels that make the most noise and thats what we are up against in this country. Most people dont care about everyone elses religion as long as you are a decent person. There are bitter sections in all society but the coverage of that isnt even and is mostly focused on the majority and what they do wrong as so not to upset the minority because that wouldnt be PC.

He is only getting all this attention because he is a poor Catholic up against the big bad Rangers. He will keep it going to deflect from the defeat and to keep himself relevant. Its a shame he has resorted to this as he has done a good job with Kilmarnock which will have got him on other clubs radars. I do feel he himself knows he has done all he can with Killie and that this is the perfect excuse to fuck off from Killie and use the Rangers fans are so mean that I had to leave for my own sake, rather than say I got a better offer. The double standards from him are shocking but I think he knows that we are an easy target with the way the media goes on up here and the support this kind of stuff gets. Its as if a terrible crime has been committed when its just part and parcel of football here it happens on both sides but we are pursued far more and put under the microscope. I think a lot of it is do with getting stronger and progressing as a team that has brought more of the bitterness towards than anything and since we live in the land of the offended, its no fair we never got our independence and Rangers are pure unionists that meant we never got independence and its all their fault. We are getting it from all angles not from a purely football side of things but to match peoples political agendas and if we question them then we are just big bad Rangers fans for daring to ask questions of them. This all started with that fucking football that criminalised fans it was brought in by the SNP on a whim based on faux outrage over Ally and the TLB (prime example of always the victim never in the wrong). It just kept going from there to let people push their own agendas.

Think its pretty much the standard of reporting now need to sell papers get hits on their site. The Tims will read it to get their fill of big bad Rangers and we read it and get pissed off way the reporting. Its a case of what are they saying about us now and that matters not just to Rangers fans now but to other teams fans as well. I work with a few tims and they are hating this the now because they still have that sense of entitlement and its just not been all their way this season they cling to this crap in the papers. They are bit happier now but thats us back into the fixtures from the start of the season and we had the tougher start when they dropped points it was later on. I dont think they have realised this yet that they are going through easier games since we beat them.

I think Windass should have been taken off. Did about as much work as pena. Morelos makes chances and links up well but we need someone up beside him. I think thats what Windass is supposed to do but still hides to much. If Morelos keeps getting subbed when Windass is playing like that then it wont be long before hes pissed off if he isnt already. It should have been Cummings and Morelos that finished the game yesterday.

I will still support the club as its just in you being a Rangers fan but they make it difficult. I go to home games as much as I can and I go to pub to watch us away. Tonight before the game I thought about staying in and either getting a stream or checking the score. I went to the pub tonight slightly hopeful. We play with less than 11 men every game and its the usual suspects that dont turn up. They dont understand what it means to wear the jersey and they dont realize that if they gave everything to win that game then we would support them but they dont and thats why we boo get pissed off and eventually stop supporting the players that wear our jersey. Rant over

Uses his hands to control the ball into his chest. Should be spotted but as usual keepers get the benifit of the doubt

I think our team is decent but maybd Pedro put to much pressure on them to play his way. Hopfully in the next few months we the real quality of the players we have .

First game in awhile that its been enjoyable.For awhile its just been relief if we won. Well done Murty and the team looked a lot more relaxed and fluid today. This was a tough game as well with suspensions and injuries. We played well and the players showed that its Rangers that matter not the Manager.

I have backed Pedro because he needed time and you could see some improvements from last season. I want it to work for him but he just cant do it when it matters. Pena and Windass offered nothing today. They should have been off at half time if not earlier. It was his team today and if you cant get them to step up when it matters then thats on the manager. I would like see him gone tomorrow but where would that leave us. Regardless of what we do this season is going to be a write off unless. We can get a manager in that can hit the ground running and get the most out of the players we have.
