*****The Official Motherwell v Rangers Match Thread*****

[RockwellGers 15,257]

Whatever else is going on, whatever issues we have, whoever we are playing, my desire to see Rangers win remains strong and unaffected. 

I think we'll score 3, going for 3-0.

Could walk right through the middle of it, and where exactly are the balls coming from out wide?

Try Colak and Morelos together in a team where there’s no one to give them any service 

Gio is that you?

Arfield, Lundstram & McCann in the middle, and the wingbacks supplying the natural width. 
With Jack and Kamara injured, who else is there apart from Davis for the middle of the park ?

So, give us an alternative mate.

Mate there’s no evidence to suggest Devine and Yilmaz would work as wing backs and you’ve sacrificed wingers to have two up top and an extra man at the back

  I’ve already said in the thread personally I’d go 

McCrorie, Tav, King, Davies, Yilmaz, Lundstram, Arfield/McCann, Tillman, Matondo, Sakala, Colak 

It’s a grim lineup but probably the best we’ve got available 

I don’t personally think Morelos warrants a start on his appearances so far this season but if you wanted to try him and Colak up front together it would probably be in a 4-1-2-1-2 with Lundstram holding, Tillman in the 10 and 2 wide players. There’s absolutely no need for us to be playing 3 centre backs and a holding midfielder against Motherwell and 5 ‘attackers’ on the pitch would certainly surprise them

True. My thinking is if Tav is carrying an injury as has been mentioned, Devine is his only natural replacement. 
Wingback puts him under less defensive pressure, and with Goldson being out for a while, maybe the 3-5-2 attacking system (not the 5 at the back we played at Anfield) could be the kick up the arse they need tactically to change our fortunes of late.  And a way to accommodate Colak & Alfie. 
Just my opinion but worth a go in my book.

That’s a good shout actually mate.

Ignore him, hes not been or attends any games. 

Their is supporters i know in NI, corby, London who put more effort and money into the club than mad mick on rm.

🤣

Listen i don't mind you having a pop. It's funny and I'm big enough and ugly enough I can take it. This is the first season in a loooong time I've no had a season ticket. Talked about it quite openly start of the season on here. I gave my ticket up to spend more time with my kids when the wee man was born this year. Do I miss it? Fucking right but i'm sure I'll be back as soon as I can get the 3 year old and 7 month old st's.

But...lots of folks simply canny go to games for different reasons. Family, health, financial whatever. But sure as shit they're no less of a Rangers fan than you. I've seen my auld man full on cry when we got promoted back to the big league. Never owned a season ticket in his life. Love to see you tell him he's less of a fan.

I don't dislike anyone on here. Aye I've got different views and I butt heads but I 100 percent regard you as a complete banger. You're full of so much shite I doubt you know the truth and anyone trying to belittle a fellow fan who can't attend games honestly smells like shite. You belong at the other half of Glasgow.

Shirt state of affairs when you wake up at 6am on match day thinking “I actually might not mind if we drop points today” because it would get the manager the sack

Fuck ! I was thinking the same - as I so desperately want him out of here.

Won’t get him the sack though. He’s here regardless. 
If we drop points we’ll be told that the players have to ‘learn from these moments’. I can’t actually listen his uninspiring pish anymore 

High chance it’ll be another absolutely brutal watch.

I'm on holiday in the sun. I've not had a proper sunny holiday in years. I'm pretty scunnered with loads about Rangers right now and might for the first time in a long time sunbathe rather than make the effort to go to a boozer 

It's actually no big deal 🤣🤣🤣

Where are you on holiday? That’s the big question.

If we drop points today I think the fans will properly turn and they’ll have to tbh. 

[Rowley Birkin 10,036]

he'll only get the sack when the league is long gone by a big gap and another humiliation by that lot

if almost every fan can see NOW is the time to get rid of him to save our season then the board can too,and by not doing so they are not doing their job

And rightly so but I just don’t see the board acting. I genuinely don’t think they really give much of a fuck. They got CL cash and if we scrape a cup win they will be happy enough. 
Our club is a shambles 

[graeme_4 37,500]

Gio won’t get the sack until the league is out of site, and even then this board’s track record with managers is awful.

Hoping we’ll drop points today is mental right now, although I wasn’t far off it under McCoist near the end.

The board are a bunch of shitebags though. If the majority of fans turn, and we’re almost there, they won’t want to deal with what they’ll perceive as the embarrassment of protests etc.
