Your eyes don't lie to you - how many times have we played well for the full 90 domestically this season? I'm not slagging the team, or even Gio for that matter, but you can't be surprised if some of us aren't confident about tonight. The writing was on the wall long before Saturday. you sure you just don't love a good moan? Gio needs to find a way to play his way and deal with teams who sit 10 men behind the ball and pray for a draw. in this i will agree. PSV has beaten Ajax this year. which tells me we have a good chance. surely you have learned the past few years not to doubt Rangers in europe.

Haven't really moaned anywhere, just made an observation? My original point was actually that I've not got myself as up for this game as I normally would be in the hours building up to kick-off. I've not said anywhere that I don't think we can win. Mclean RFC 1 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

A pint of what you are on Mate, please. Our recent European record does give us cause for mild optimism about tonight, but unfortunately, our overall form negates a lot of that. Yes, we are a different animal in Europe, however our latest abject capitulation to Them will IMHO carry on into tonight in the heads of some of our squad. If we lose an early goal, it could turn into a long night as it has been demonstrated that should we fail to `keep the zero' and build into the game later on as seems to be Gio's only game plan at the moment, then we are in trouble. I would bite your hand off for the shittiest boring draw right now, but I suspect that given our form and especially the fact that we are sorely lacking a goalkeeper of the required standard, this will be one away trip too far tonight. bobbyrussell and HG5 2 Quote Link to post Share on other sites More sharing options...

Anyone in the Rangers support not even slightly concerned following the second nightmare in a row at The Piggery, and our overall form are IMHO doing the head in the sand thing. I am fearing the worst but hoping for the best, and no doubt after my pre-game preparation in the pub I will be Battle Feverish. We do have a decent squad even if half of it is injured, and we have demonstrated that, especially in Europe, we can turn it on, but there is no point in trying to deny anything other than the fact that we are not/have not played well this season apart from Eindhoven. This is going to be a difficult night, but I can assure you should we get the result tonight I would be swinging from the pub chandelier if it had one.
