Saturday 13th May, 12:30.

Ibrox.

Sky Sports Main Event

Referee: Steve McLean.

[Madina 3,397]

The only emotion I feel for this is apathy. A dead rubber of a game. OF matches should never be dead rubbers 

[The Godfather 67,591]

A result is badly needed

[G.E.C. 17,907]

Fucking shag the cunts 28-0 

[graeme_4 31,484]

Feel sick at the thought of it tbh.

Absolutely nothing upfront. The thought of going into it with Sakala and Matondo as your attacking duo, is as bad as going in with Morelos.

Expect another humiliating loss. Can’t even be bothered getting a bevy before Ibrox. 

[BlueAvenger 9,485]

I have no idea about our best and available starting 11 is but if we play the same team as against the sheep we will get pumped. In any event we have fuck all up front. Fuckin scandalous and sickening 

[MacBoyd 4,947]

53 is far to close for comfort. Disgusts me we had the chance to put a decent buffer between us again 2 years ago but fucked it.

[cr3_bear 14,278]

Never felt so underwhelmed for a game against them in my life 

Been a few dead rubbers over the years but always felt there was something to prove for the following season .

only way this game will generate any sort of feel good factor is if we somehow managed to scud them. Can’t see it though unfortunately 

[Bad Robot 20,067]

Shagger, Tav, Soutter, Goldson, Borna, Lundstrum, Raskin, Cantwell, Matondo, Sakala, Kent. 
 

home win

True.

Beale really has to play McCrorie. Had a good game at the weekend. Looked very vocal too. 

[McEwan's Lager 29,498]

Feels like going into the last games of the season under Pedro and Murty in 16/17 and 17/18.

I’d have no issue with McCrorie and Yilmaz tbh and would give a good experience for next season 

[NixonRFC 1,294]

This game is massive for Beale, he needs to show his team can beat them and if he can't do that when they'll have their flip flops on then he'll be running a tightrope at the first sign of any trouble next season.

Whatever the score though, I hope the social media team don't go over the top with a win though, four year ago we beat them in the last Old Firm game when it was a dead rubber and the twitter account was giving it "Glasgow is blue" and all that pish, two weeks later they were winning another treble, it just makes us look tinpot going mental about winning a glorified friendly while they rack up trophy after trophy.

Complete dead-rubber of a game, which means certain loser players will probably turn up and play well. 

[CoplandRoad83 3,026]

Hard to pick any sort of team in last third.

McCrorie, Tav, Soutter, Goldson, Ridvan, Lundstrum, Raskin, Cantwell, Arfield, Sakala, Morelos

Only playing Morelos as we need someone to lead the line and have no other options. Lets hope he gives us something back for his last Old Firm.

Options in last third that bad I'd probably go with Arfield inside/wide right and Sakala on left (where he seems to be less shite at times).

[OrangeRab 1,938]

Worried about the attack. Can’t really go with the same team as the sheep. Would probably play Morelos with CCV out. Their best player and think he’ll get a bit more joy with him out
 

McCrorie has to start

I've still got PTSD after that game at the end of 2017/18, genuinely thought they would take 10 off us that day, five down in the 50th minute, getting out of there with no other damage was a result in itself as embarrassing as that is.

[ForeverAndEver 68,984]

Not even dreading it, just canny wait for it to be over with already, same goes for the whole season.

I know where you're coming from but we're in a much better place on the park than back then. We finished third in both those seasons finishing on 67 points then 70 points. Right now we're on 84 points with 4 games still to play. Some people will try to disagree with this comment but we've actually put enough points on the board that would win a lot of titles, sadly the scum have barely dropped points all season.

Feel like we equally need as much of a rebuild though.

It's been a good season points wise, you can't deny that, four games to go and we're still in with a chance of finishing on 96 points, which would mean we'd only have dropped 18 points all season, that's league winning form most years, think the only time a second place team got near that figure was in 2003 when we won the League on goal difference.

The problem is they've been relentless and looking at our point tally, they've had to be.

Feels worse for me 

then we were shite and knew it. Still naively went into games against them at Ibrox thinking we could at least muster a point against them 

this time in the last two years we have won the title and made a European final but just failed to move on and use either as a massive springboard to push on and instead ended up back at sqaure one again 

[Laudrupsleftfoot 9,854]

I know it’s scant consolation but we need a win both to stop this awful run against them, and to prevent them from being able to set a points record.
