To Be A Ranger

Eck's squad had more potential than this lot. It wasn't a good game of football but we had plenty of possession, corner kicks and free kicks yet only hit the target a couple of times. The players aren't up to it. It's not like we defended for 90 mins. It's another game we could have easily won but didn't, a bit like countless games over the past 18 months

I'm an old fashioned cunt and I would do everything to stop another good man losing his life to marriage. Maybe that's just my experience though. Btw there's nothing to stop anyone arranging a local stag night and drinking moderately. Excessive boozing during the season instead of training is a no no.

Good. Supporters have sacrificed more just to follow the team.

Sad if true. Most folk don't like change but this shows how comfortable our mob of players have had it. The sooner they ship out the better.

Wouldn't be the first player ever taken off because of the shit surface.

Fuck sake. Get some balls man.

Murty knows the players and has seen them play often enough. Easy enough to blame Pedro but who would think that the players would hardly string 2 passes together or even fail to get a header on target after 15 or so corners. The players are to blame.

Tav telling Holt to cover the RB position there. Lazy bassa Tav, do your job.

Fuck sake. It would be nice if we could actually hit the target now and again

Windass should've bust a gut there to get right into the box instead of slowing down

We can't swing in a decent set piece and hardly a player can judge the ball in the air when going for a header. We need a clear out before we can expect to challenge for honours again. The tackling is pish as is the passing and movement. The players are that bad I'm fed up shouting at them and might just shout at the manager instead.

What goes through Waghorns head? Gimme the ball. Oh fuck I've got it. What will I do. Hold it. Hold it. Pass it. Naw hold it. Shoot. Pass. Keep it on the deck. What to do. Fuck it. Then boots it anywhere, most likely out the park.

He said Bates is doing well

Was keeping off the drink til the weekend but just cracked open the first of a few to try and relieve the boredom.

Tav can't tackle, is posted missing from RB, keeps falling over the ball etc. Fits right in with this side.

Nothing said about that handball there. If it was one of our defenders Walker would be on about a penalty for the rest of the match.

4 corners in a row and not one decent ball with pace. Surely someone can fire in a corner to a Rangers head.

I might be concerned by the team being announced early if we had a great squad of players and we were going into a league decider game but we don't and we aren't. If we were firing on all cylinders and winning game after game we would probably have a settled side and the opposition would know who is being selected anyway. The manager is only a couple of weeks into the job and won't know what a lot of these players can do, so maybe its a way of him testing their character. We are clinging on to 3rd spot and are being hit by injuries. Pedro is only doing what he thinks is best for the players. No big deal imo.

From the outside (of Scotland) looking in I can see a lot of folk believing this. What they won't see is his stubbornness, and lack of ability to take a club beyond what he sees as successful. Once they hear the same old soundbites and take notice on how soon his management style stifles progress they will change their minds.

Damn disgrace. A thug gets a 1 year banning order. A lad I know was given a 2 year football ban and he wasn't attacking anyone. Would a Rangers fan be treated so lightly under the same circumstances. Very doubtful. One law for us and a sympathy law for the rest.

Didn't get anything for the semi or final last time (although some nice gents sorted me out) but I got one this time

Once a bear.....

Did the Founders Trail at the weekend and I thoroughly recommend it. Excellent guides, nice booklet and comfy coach. I'll be viewing buildings I've passed a million times in the past without a second thought in a different light from now on. Very enjoyable history tour of the club and it's beginnings, topped off with the Ibrox tour. If youre thinking about it get yourself booked. It seems to be very popular as our bus was packed.

It was good to see a different tactic employed. Hill was standing off the pitch and then coming quickly on again when the long throws were being done, until the ref told him to stop it. Another difference yesterday was the urgency of the front two sprinting to get into the box with a midfielder trying to push up behind them. None of this keep possession and pass backwards stuff.

To most of us the UB's having been doing a great job for years with the songs and banners. Sounds like the only folk who have a problem are a few who are seated close to them but don't care to join in because the UB's aren't singing what they want. Shame that the tiny minority then have to stoop so low as to slag off the UBs at every opportunity. Any more of it and I'll be doing a fund raiser for every UB to be given a drum and a megaphone. Might even throw in a bit of pyro to really get the party going
