Damage limitation.

[SkylineBlue 23,330]

I dont know if its just a hangover from Wednesday, but there is a real feeling of sadness about this game tomorrow for me. It feels like the end of a chapter for the club given how many players are likely to move on in the summer. After years of turmoil there has been a stability about the team on the park for the past few years and they've given us some great moments; moments I felt I'd never see again at times.

Good game at the right time, can exorcise some of the demons from Wed.

Our youngsters battered them last week, i'd say they could again if needed/used, which i think some will at some stage.

Yes a Cup Final is unpredictable to a point, but confident enough. 

Get the win, life the cup and breath, in what has been a proper rollercoaster of a season. 

Lowry on from the start. McCann on the bench. Let's promote youth and move on. Honestly think the only reason Ramsey made the bench on Wednesday was that he was a Wilson singing. Gio had little option. How do you explain not using a player that cost lots.

No point playing Goldson imo if he's off. 

Aye mate fuck him it's not like he deserves the opportunity to finish off his career with us by lifting a trophy or anything.

Fuck me man.

Needs to happen though.

Fuck me man.

I can’t wait to see the back of him tbh. 

[Malkytfp1 18,594]

Canny understand people wanting Ramsey to play. Mental. Think he injured himself in walking from the halfway line to take that penalty anyway.

Lowry must start. It's his time.

What's happened? He out injured?

[THE_Ibrox_Preacher 2,812]

Tomorrow feels kind of hollow following the other night but it really shouldn't.

• It is an opportunity to get the domestic cup hoodoo off our back.
• It's the better of the 2 domestic cups.
• It's an opportunity to do something to relieve the pain of the other night rather than stew on it for months unable to play.
• It's an opportunity to end the season on a high.
• It's an opportunity to demonstrate things learned or picked up on from the other night almost immediately.
• It's an opportunity to give a winning send off to those who won't be with us next season.
• It's the only competition we can win this season now.
• It's merited on the basis of what the players, the fans, and the investors have achieved over the last however many seasons.

I hope they can win it well against a Hearts side who are right up for it.

I won't even attempt the line up as I could make a case for half a dozen.

Failure to win would be an awful end to a season that simply hasn't merited it.

[McEwan's Lager 30,522]

It's a massive game for Tav too. 

Poor in the 2016 Final, ok in the LC Final in 2019 but gave up penalties to Alfie who missed, poor on Wednesday night. He's due a big final performance for us in my opinion.

Do you honestly believe a man who has played as the captain of his country in a World Cup final and won a champions league winners medal would pick a player  due to having little option?

Please tell me you’re not serious.

Harsh judgements there. 

Tavs is on a great run of form. Bound to get at least one goal/assist.

Steamin the morra what a season it's been let's finish on a high 

[.Williamson. 82,178]

I’m buzzing for it. Was buzzing for it when we won the semi final to get here and nothing has changed 

Wednesday will be a sore one for awhile but there’s no changing what has already happened. Win this today and then immediately start preparing ourselves for getting into the CL groups and taking back a league title next season that we shouldn’t have lost 

[The Ibrox Derry 8,904]

There's ghosts from 2016 that need fucking exorcised today once and for all.

That was a painful fucking day.

It still hurts.

Especially with what those spoon burning bastards done at the end, and the liberties that they got away with.

[Moody Blue Legend 61,461]

SC Final day troops.  Let’s fuckin go!

[Nk89 1,289]

           McLaughlin 

Tav Goldson Balogun Bassey

             Lundstram 

        Kamara   Arfield

 Aribo       Roofe       Kent

Bassey to get to the byline more in the 1st 45mins than Barisic has all season.

3-0 Gers.

A well deserved bit of silverware to end a roller coaster season.

 

 

[Blue Viking 702]

We have to win this , I know it's not the Europa League cup, but its silverware and our club and supporters need this one.

Get the best team out there and show them why we were in that Europa League Final .

Come on Rangers !!!!!
