LegendofCoop 17,361 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 Goal for 2-2 was offside. Their 4th pen hit the bar & could have gone anywhere. Argyriou hit the inside of the post & could easily have gone in.That's cup fitba for ye!! At theend of the day, we lost to a team in a higher league than us.I'm giving less than a flying fuck about going out the Ramsdens Cup. I genuinely feel sorry for the 23,000 Gers fans who turned up on a cold Tuesday night. TRUE Gers fans!! Now lets get on with the real matter at hand. Winning the league! C'mon chaps.....we have much bigger fish to fry!! (That would have been a great pun if it had been the Harry Ramsdens cup ). Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tiebreak54 151 Posted September 18, 2012 Share Posted September 18, 2012 I heard the same thing when we were knocked out the League Cup, Champions league qualifying, Europa league and then the Scottish Cup last season. The belief that Rangers getting knocked out any competition can be perceived as a positive is startling. We are Rangers, we do not demean or undermine any competition we enter, we want to win everything we can. Posts suggesting that defeats can be used to our advantage is scandalous. The high standards are slipping on the park, and the opening post suggests standards are slipping with the fans too.'Concentrate on Division 3', really?

We are not the team we were. We're a 3rd div side who had a bad game. I'm no fuckin happy but shit happens. What do you do when the linesman misses blatant offside for a goal. How can you defend against that? We had it won an that shit decision cost us the game. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

As I say....there's more important things than winning the Ramsden's Cup this season.Exactly!It amazes me how some people think we should be winning things just because we are "rangers"The bulk of our squad walked after (liquidation) and Ally had to sign players on very short notice from a very short pool.We should be more understanding as a support and utilise our voice to support the boys rather than against them.

But you go ahead and spin it whatever way you like.Using your logic, we did well to take it to penalties then? of course we went out to a team in a higher division, but the fact we have just sent a player out on loan to a club in a 'higher division' only highlights the uniqueness of our situation. Our wage bill is higher than every club bar one in Scotland. The league above line is nonsense, and is not a valid excuse. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
