I hope so ( and expect so) but we have seem players let this game pass them by, especially their first - but we shall soon know - I hope we show the dig and fight we expect.

In addition to what they bring on the pitch, they’ll have war stories of previous games where we’ve turned them over. It will certainly help - Morelos and tavernier ( and Halliday) have all been there as well - let’s hope it goes well. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

More than the end of the horribly titled “banter years”, I look forward to the day our fans stop mentioning Scott Brown as if he is some sort of Scottish Pirlo. I fully understand that he has intimidated our midfield during This horrible period in our history but he is a bang average player and the fan and media obsession with him has really aided and abetted his ability to intimidate our midfielders. If there is nothing else that comes from today’s game I hope it is the end of the aura that has been built up around him and we never have to see posts saying “I hope bear X breaks Lego munchers legs” again Brown gets made to look the average player he is anytime he comes against teams that don’t fear him plumbGER, TheMotor and gmcf 3 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

tufts1690 75 Posted September 2, 2018 Share Posted September 2, 2018 I'm 31 years young and have never been so captivated and enthralled by a Rangers set up. Every video, every interview, every post match.. I need to watch it and be involved. All eyes on you and your men gaffer. Fight till the death and do us proud. gmcf 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Tomorrow he leads our team into the lions den with 59,200 fans against him and desperate to inflict his first defeat. The hatred levels will be cranked right up but I trust no-one else more just now than our Steven to get our players in the right mindset and to prepare them for battle. Even if we don't take anything from the game tomorrow, I have complete faith in Steven getting us back to the top in this shithole of a country, brushing aside all the teams who kicked us when we were down. No Surrender Steven Gerrard Well said @plumbGER , fuck do I feel a fanny now criticising his appointment Youre spot on though , for the first time in many a manager I feel we won't collapse like a deck of cards if it doesn't go our way today . Getting away from the bravado , it's a big ask going there with most players having never experienced it and those that have will have never done so with such little support . I feel we have a good chance today of getting something out the game , but , like I say , if we don't , such is the character of the man that we'll just get up and start again whereas in years gone by we'd have fallen to pieces . And that is good management . plumbGER 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

We , as fans , give him too much coverage that he'll be loving the notoriety . He's getting away with it because we've hardly had a midfield to boast about . Funny how you never heard much about him in the days of Mendes , Davis , Thompson and Edu etc. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

The character of the man is unquestionable imo, true leader of men as I said in my OP. Nerves are shredded gmcf 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

I think Gerrard has been great so far but Tav as Captain is a mistake. 9 would do. Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
