Spot on.

Obviously there will be odd games that are a bit of a grind or we get through with a bit of brilliance or luck.

Over the piece, it’s the performances that generate the results, rather than the results justifying the performances.

Anyway, we’re generally maxing out the points even when not hitting our top levels this time around, so we just need to keep on plugging away & it’ll work out!

If we can avoid even dropping 2 points during our dip in form, that would be unbelievable.

I think it's 17 points we need forgetting goal difference. 6 wins will do it 

Yep 17 points

I suggested that folk who moan like fuck about wins like this surely couldn't have been comparing it to the past 10 years, suggesting they were acting like spoilt. 

No sinister plan there, just folk trying to fault my suggestion they don't need to be miserable when we win. 

You know who I mean, go back 30 pages if in doubt, and check the moaners.

Spoilt ffs we're about as far away from that as possible

Personally, I don't think we need to win the next 5 or 6, as the filth ain't winning the next 5 or 6.

Not a fucking chance.

Maybe it is the scar tissue of the hedge years, but I want the filth given no hope at all, not even if we snatch it away at the end. I want a procession to the title.

Was ironic, folk moaning about just now.

We're spoilt now and living a dream, and long may it continue. 

In spite of the moaning minnies.

[King Jela 20,361]

Nearly there  

Canny beat a 1-0 win. 

[The Hammer 11 2,579]

Are we now past the point where they can null and void the league ?

Aye, we know, everybody likes to trot that line out, but we can still moan about watching a shite game though? 

I think ultimately we need to assess where we've ended up in a short space of time. Even the most optimistic about a proper title challenge this season would have expected it go right to the wire, to be as far ahead as we are at this stage is something special and we need to look at that bigger picture

Yes but when it's over and you realise we probably won't see form like this again then you should realise how special it is. 

To play poor and win is champion mentality and its what we did under Walters endless titles. 

We have been fucking superb this season and wins like tonight shows it even more. 

 

This! 

Since we've been promoted all we've said is "we don't care how we win 55 as long as we do asap". Now we're just about there some do care how we win games to win a league.

1/2-0 wins for 38 games a season...give me it every year I'm alive as long as there is a big silver trophy being held aloft by a Rangers' captain.

Performances don't win trophies, you'd think some would have learned after last years LC Final?

What does win it is a good squad  with good players playing in a good system all in one which is what we have in 20/21 but havent in the past 4 years.

This type of thing leads to good managers and personel leaving because expectation ends up being about more than winning which simply isn't Rangers.

Yup.

Will be nice to see the bad weather out, keep working away & hopefully cross the line in proper champion style!

You've still no answered who got MOTM on your stream if it wasn't Hagi or Aribo.

It was Hagi

[ChampionsAgain 1,373]

Didn’t see first half due to RTV issues. Hagi and Booker T were superb in the second. 
 

5 wins and a draw until 55 troops. From sitting the night before Brechin away wondering if we would even have a license to this. 
 

It’s been a long and eventful journey but it’s nearly over.

Back where we belong 😎

Cheers Jinty but you've missed a few posts to put my post in to context. Not a big deal. Another game checked off though towards the inevitable 👍

And Hibs away 😉👍❤💙

With the only goal coming from a player who was retrospectively red carded just to rub salt into the wound 😂

[BuffaloUSAGers 1,235]

Every septic follower goes to bed miserable tonight. I’d call that a good day.

[johanhentze 14,089]

St.J were very well organised.. Very good goal from Hagi. 3 good points. I will take it every day of the week. Its happening!

We have vaccinated millions of people. Absolutely  no chance whatsoever that will happen.
