At least the sheep never lay down. They can be beaten if teams stop respecting them and get in their faces. 

Aberdeen kept the HT score manageable and were therefore able to make a game off it as celtic tired. We might have had a similar chance vs them had Barisic not gifted them a third right as the first half was ending. They also look so vulnerable from set pieces which is another thing we seldom did vs them a week ago. We really did hand them a win. Ibrox rematch can't come soon enough.

[KingKirk 26,501]

In my mind these cunts are favourites for the title because of things like tonight 2 up then 2 each and they still find away to win. 

If that was us we either collapse and loss all 3 points or accept a point like a few weeks back. 

It's absolutely sickening we find ourselves in a title race but we've only ourselves to blame.

Baffling mate…

It's frustrating because they'll take a lot of confidence from that, however, I'm hoping it takes a little bit of the fear away from other teams. Aberdeen's defending was honking and they still should have got something from the game.

Staying in the game is vital against them but these sides have got to know when to go for it. Hearts and Aberdeen have showed how vulnerable they can be when they aren't out of sight.

This is true, I should have said lucky breaks from referees with the number of things that have been given to them, offside goals, injury time until they score, penalties not given against them or if they are the other team miss. 

This streak of luck will run out

[MattyBlue 17,675]

Just seen their offside goal, fucking Christ man how many is that this season I can think of a good 3/4 off the top of my head 

[stuart1994 4,536]

They were much better against ourselves and Motherwell, but just seen the highlights of last night and it seems they’re back to being sprawny jammy bastards.

The linesman was that Mulvaney (sp) that's turned a blind eye to fuck knows how many decisions now. You could actually make a compilation from this season alone. 

[MattyBlue 17,675]

Yea mate, I just said In the willie collum thread I can think of 3 offside goals In games im sure they ended up winning by 1 goal, that’s 6 points they’ve managed to pick up when they shouldn’t have.

annoying as fuck when it looks like this is a down to the wire title race

That would be 9 unless you're back in the early 80s

I mean they should have only got 1 point in each game but picked up 2 more for the wins

Have we not conceded the first goal and went on to win the game more than anyone else this season?

BBC saying their winner was "controversial" and possibly offside. Why am I not surprised?

Only surprise is that it's the BBC saying it!

[Rangers_no1 34,601]

Goalkeeping howler for the first, deflection for the second and an offside third goal. The decisions and luck they have had this season is unreal.

Also Jota went right up to the scum fans after the first goal, automatic yellow, not given and got a yellow on 61 minutes.

Should have been a red. 

[the cry was no 3,072]

They've certainly benefitted fro a few "lucky breaks"

Penalties not given

Dundee United (H) - won 1-0 (2 point gain)

Livingston (H) - drew 0-0 (1 point gain)

Motherwell (H) - won 1-0 (2 point gain) they scored in 45+3 from a free kick that was of the "very, very soft" variety

Aberdeen (A) - won 3-2 (2 point gain)

The offsides 

Hearts (H) - won 1-0 (2 point gain)

Aberdeen (A) - won 3-2 (2 point gain)

That's 11 points gained from wrong decisions

For balance Sakala was offside v Motherwell in the 1-1 game to gain us a point, they had a good goal wrongly chopped off v Hearts in the first game which would have gained them a point and we got away with a penalty at Pittodrie which gained us a point - still 8 points to the good on "lucky breaks"

If things are going to even themselves out this season we've got a fair bit of "luck" coming our way in the last 12 games

Also no-one should forget the benefit and "lucky winter break" they got when the winter break was brought forward, without doubt the luckiest of lucky breaks

We've been below par for most of the season, keep up the levels of the last 2 games and we will win it, even if their luck doesn't change. With the right attitude and application we can win 12/12

You are making the bin dippers favourites to win in your mind because they come from behind and find a way to win.

We do it more often than them this season, I didn’t think it was an overly complicated point.

They're clearly on a very good run right now but they are clear weaknesses there. They typically falter in 2nd half once their stamina goes, their defence is fragile when attacked, and they're over-reliant on last minute goals, lucky deflections and questionable ref decisions - which can make your team look world-beating when on a good run of form until suddenly those last minute goals, deflections and decisions aren't happening.

One of the (many) reasons to be raging last Wednesday was the extent to which we didn't exploit their flaws. I still think that this celtic side could be given a thrashing - especially if we played and pressed with the intensity we've had the past two games. Sit 20 yards further up the park, press and harry them with intensity and numbers, and pass through their first press and we could have a lot of joy.

The early goal was a massive help to them .Even if we had held out for 15 20 minutes to work our way into the game it would have been a different game .

So much we could have done to prevent the first goal ,The clearance that creates the corner was woeful .

Then of course the goal shouldn’t have stood ,due to the head knock ,Harsh on any attacking time especially since it’s was one of our own that caused the knock ,but rules are rules

At the end of the Gerrard era my betting account was pretty healthy .

Bet Rangers to win at 1 nil down in all the games we conceded early .
