Will we still win the League?

[Johnson 27]

Sorry, but we just don't have the squad.

Miller leaving took away so much from the team.

Losing McCulloch has unsettled the midfield and made the defence more vulnerable.

Now Naisy is out for some crucial weeks, robbing us of a pacy and determined player.

Weir is looking done and even Jelavic, who has great skill, does not look fully fit yet.

I really fear we will lose more players over the coming weeks to injury and suspension.

And we don't have the players to replace them.

If I'm being honest, I fear the worst. But I'm not giving up.

NO SURRENDER!

Smith has four months to change the habits of a lifetime - it's all up to him.

I never thought I'd say it, but Lennon has him figured out

[Johnson 27]

Mark Hateley in today's DR:

Here's an interesting statistic. When Rangers were going for the quadruple in 2008 they had something like 33 first-team players on their books. It is a similar scenario in 2011 and Rangers are functioning with 16 first-team players.

[RANGERST1LLADIE 33]

NO our team just lacks the ability or fight we need

[Madina 3,841]

Would be very suprised if we did. The warning signs have been there since Jan but Walter chooses to ignore them Cant see the tims dropping many (if any) points TBH

[ogbg 20]

Who will take points off them? Since they lost at Tynecastle, have they dropped points? Lennon told his players to go through the rest of the season unbeaten, so far they have done that, i think. I cant see any team in this league taking points off them, it will be left to us to win every match, we do that, we will be champions. It sounds more unrealstic for us to win every match, and we all know why that is.

They are a hungry bunch, we dont look up for it at all.

Since losing to Hearts, they drew against Dundee Utd at home, Inverness at home, Kilmarnock at home, and Hamilton away. So they dropped 10 points since then.

[davie_bluenose 20]

Someone mentioned this yesterday so I won't take credit. They said the tims have peaked too early and when Lennon's touchline ban kicks in it will affect them. His presence on the touchline does affects games in bad way on putting pressure on the officials and good way (for them anyway) in that he can

I dont think it will make a great deal of difference when he gets banned. Do you really think that will have a massive effect on them? In the end we have to look at ourselves, and were just not upto the fight. Thats what is killing our season.

He told them not to lose, have they lost?

[ogbg 20]

The maths are simple, if we go on an unbeaten run from now we will win the league, the execution is rather more problematic.

That's not true. We'd have to go on a winning run to guarantee it.

[ogbg 20]

He told them not to lose, have they lost?

You asked if they'd dropped any points since losing at Tynecastle.

[SirWalterSmithLegend 206]

You asked if they'd dropped any points since losing at Tynecastle.

Yes, i asked, but im not their manager, he told them not to lose, have they lost?

[ogbg 20]

Yes, i asked, but im not their manager, he told them not to lose, have they lost?

I was just answering your question. Yes - they've dropped 10 points.

You didn't previously ask if they'd lost. But the answer is no.

[Allanger 625]

I was just answering your question. Yes - they've dropped 10 points.

They will drop more points yet. I'm pretty sure of it

[Broxi 11,516]

They will drop more points yet. I'm pretty sure of it

So will we, I think we have to admit that celtic are favourites and accept that

[Jimbo. 952]

No. Ithink we lost the league yesterday.

I hope I'm wrong, but we just don't seem to have the heart for it.

[SirWalterSmithLegend 206]

I didnt think they had, cheers.

To who?

[CanuckGer 0]

It's not over until it's over

Keep Believing :marv:

That picture of Marvin says it all! They could use him in the dressing room, and maybe on the training ground.

[CanuckGer 0]

The Gers can win the league but it will be very difficult. I really hope Edu doesn't get another game. I'd much rather see Kyle Hutton playing in his spot, and when Ness is ready, Ness.

Do they have anyone to replace Weir?

[razor6605 0]

sad to say .but i cant see it.our managers tactics and team selection are baffling.every bear i talk to can see where the problems are,why cant walter and ally see it.why cant we just have a go at the mhanky mob,im afraid to say that i think our manager is scared of celtic,if this is the case then they must go.my god we reached the uefa cup final and still didnt have a go.so thanks for all the great times hes given us but time is up for walter. watp

[papaguy51 912]

It must be great for a Rangers player not having to go into work the next day and face a barrage of stick from the tims.

The worst thing about today at work is that I didn't have a leg to fucking stand on when it came to the above. I couldn't argue with anything they said, that's how shite we were.

[BILL.I.AM 18]

Just had a look at our fixtures in the run up to the split

St Johnstone (h)

Dundee Utd (a)**

St Mirren (a)

Dundee Utd (h)

Hamilton (a)

Killie (h)

Aberdeen (a)**

St Mirren (h)**

St Johnstone (a)**

** those games haven't been arranged yet to my knowledge

The game that I'm not looking forward to the most is Dundee Utd away so hopefully by the time we play them our confidence is back although another doing from the scum next week in the SC might shatter it to the point of no recovery

[wearapeeple 2]

Have no doubts that we will win championship 54 by seasons end cos we will show more bottle from now till end of campain as we always say NO SURRENDER to the scum

Thats the problem with some of this team. They don't understand the mentality it takes to play for a club like Rangers.
