Also remember us hammering Roma then losing the league.

The first pre season game genuinely means nothing when the players have probably been doing tough training all week.

We won the league that season 😋

Strange as i really enjoyed pumping Madrid last summer and when we went to France and won that pre season friendly tournament thing. We were awesome. I think fans sometimes underestimate just how important pre season is and how important winning any game is. It breeds so much. Winning is a habit. You either have it or you dont. The facts tonight are we have 1 new player in the team and 1 long term injured back. 9 players who were part of a side who failed last season are still starting. This is where we are. Arfield and Wright offer us nothing. Kent in all honesty isn't interested. Davis touching 40. Barisic has continued his horrific form. And we still need a new number 1. If you are not even slightly concerned then......i don't know. Under no circumstances should Rangers be losing any game to a League 1 team, newly promoted or not. Our fans were apoplectic with rage at the thought of us signing Ross Stewart....as it stands he's enjoying the game far more than us. This is extremely poor. 

:lol: 

Someone doesn’t understand how preseason and conditioning works.

In terms of ridiculous posts in match threads this is right up there, it's a fucking training game ffs. 

I was under the impression it was a league game too. Forgive me for looking for any sign that we have a cohesive plan going into the season. It’s a training game for Sunderland too and they should be 3 up. Ffs.

Probably extra muscle, a lot of players will have more time to train in the gym during Pre season or when they are injured and bulk up.

Katic for example did exactly that during his injury period.

Sometimes players put on a bit too much muscle and it effects their speed and stamina which I think Katic did.

Was thinking about the extra muscle - Andy Murray sprang to mind as he bulked up too much.

Positives it's just a pre-season friendly and there's not a chance we'll start with this line-up when the real games start.

Negatives we've made a huge mistake giving new contracts to Davis and Arfield.   Also Barisic still looks like he's the meek player from last season too scared to try anything.
