Could have had 5 players sent off for farting before kick off. Didn't happen. Stick to facts. All that matters at end of the day. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

It has everything to do with why Rangers punching above their weight but not hitting those same heights domestically. Rangers do better in Europe because the technical ability is rewarded and not the ability to kick people around the park like we seen against Hibs.

I'll take a fairly mediocre performance with a 4 nil away win all day long. Fucking delighted. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Teams don't sit 11 behind the ball. Teams meet us in the middle of the park and try to play. We suit that. We don't have to worry about beating the block. That's the difference.

None really hot away with blatant stuff, especially over the ball type challenges. Its not coincidence imo. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

In the league at home we the fans expect them to win and some just cannot cope unfortunately. Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...
