  1. All joking aside, if you swap us and them there is no way the league would have been halted as it was, certainty

  2. Delighted for Morelos. It would be awful for hm to leave in a goal drought after the career he’s had at Rangers

  3. George Nelson was one of two lads who lost their lives on stairway 13 at Ibrox Stadium on the 16th September 1961,the other being Tommy Thomson. Yesterday George Nelson’s stone at Craigton Cemetery was cleaned and re-lettered. We will forever remember our brothers.

  6. Baffling indeed. Possession: Rangers 74% - St Mirren 26% Shots: Rangers 28 - St Mirren 4 Shots on target: Rangers 12 - St Mirren 2 Corners: Rangers 14 - St Mirren 1 What sort of stats would good require?

  7. Agreed. I was getting nervous at the start of the 2nd half, ideally we need to be 2/3 up at HT before we can relax a bit. Having said that we have looked very strong defensively so far this season, Balogun looks the real deal, with Goldson having a very good start to the season.

  8. Decent result. Happy for Buffalo to get back on score sheet. Hopefully, it boost his confidence as i did think he was looking a bit lacking in that department earlier games. . Gonz, if we were 20 clear at xmas, the spfl would just cancel the season anyway. Null and void of course

  9. I am delighted we are 2 points clear of them but being honest, we could be 20 points clear at Xmas and I'd still be nervous. We just need to keep winning. I was happy to see Morelos start. The wee man is a cracking player who should be utilised as long as he is here.

  10. No substitute for being at games, but have to say I enjoyed the match day package supplied by Rangers today. Very professional service, brilliant commentary and pundits - only question, why was the crown noise halted at half-time?

  11. I've never been a massive fan of Tyldesley, but he does give the coverage a proper "Telly" feel.

  13. Another very solid performance from Connor Goldson and McLaughlin seems very assured with the ball at his feet. That said, I thought the standouts today were Morelos and Jack.

  15. I would like to see more from Jack in the final third; he's got the ability, but is rarely brave enough to show it. Kamara is best when he keeps it simple, as the lone DM.

  17. Richard Gordon isn't on Go Radio, I think it's Rob McLean, easy to confuse them to be fair. As a commercial station I suspect Go Radio will endeavour to be far more balanced than BBC Scotland, if only from a revenue perspective. Alienating the Rangers support won't be good for business or please advertisers (or indeed new commercial partners...). Paul Cooney is a talented producer and despite his personal leanings Clyde's football coverage was much fairer than BBC Scotland's when he was in charge of it. I've yet to hear their new show, I see they've got Si Ferry and Barry Ferguson on so my heart has sunk already, but at some point in the coming weeks i'll give it listen. If it's to be successful it will need to appeal to us, you can't alienate the biggest club in the country's support if you're not being financed by the licence fee. You'd hope Haughey and co understand that.

  18. The Aberdeen Situation. Let's start at Thursday evening. Rangers, Scotland's last Euro' representative in season 2019/20, are in Germany in an attempt to reach the Europa Cup quarter-finals. It's five months since the first leg was lost 1-3 at Ibrox against Bayer Leverkusen. Further, Rangers efforts in European competition, 32 games in two seasons has seen the Scottish co-efficient rise to ensure the Scottish League will have two representatives in the Champions League qualifiers in a season's time. Big Dick hosting, Tom English commenting, and Liam McLeod providing commentary from the telly, chose to spend the build up 45 minutes talking about, "the club in question" and, "the player in question". We all know the club in question was Aberdeen, and we could guess at the player in question? Photographs across social media allowed any interested party to note several Aberdeen players attended the Soul Bar in the granite city in the immediate aftermath of their Pittodrie defeat to Rangers. The incident concerning the club in question and the players in question was being contained, no Chris McLaughlin report as per the previous week's Rangers friendlies against Motherwell and Rangers. We were not told if stand-in SFA Chair, Mike Mulraney was raging, and come back kid, Rod Petrie said nothing. Jum Spence held his discipline, unlike last week when he Tweeted Dundee United had a legitimate right to be absolutely raging at Rangers. Of course, we know BBC Scotland carried a one line on Wednesday's website, stating the SFA had decided to remind Hibs, Motherwell, and Rangers as to conduct in timeous receiving of Covid testing results. It would appear BBC Scotland were intent on fanning flames reference Rangers, but were determined to fire fight reference the club in question. Anyways, the Rangers game came and went, and Big Dick signed off several minutes after the final whistle. Eight O'Clock, Rangers Euro efforts were put to bed. Move to today(Saturday), and the national broadcaster has changed tone. The First Minister is quoted as being, "pretty furious" at the Aberdeen situation. The gravity of eight Dandies' actions have put Scottish football's immediate future in doubt. Big Dick, Wullie Miller, Tom English, James McFadyen, Alan Preston, and Neil McCann are all chorusing mea culpa on behalf of the Dandies. The first three caution the social media pile on, and praise Dave Cormack's efforts in apologising to all Scottish football. Strange, eight years past, social media was praIsed for providing necessary momentum in dealing with Rangers. I thought the next three games to be faced by Aberdeen might have been explored? St Johnstone, Accies, and ra Sellik are the three representatives on the SPFL Board. What say Fluffer Brown, Les Gray, and Peter? Of course, some avenues are best not explored, we have seen the photographs doing the rounds on social media reference Leigh Griffiths current girlfriends birthday party in Bothwell, midweek. A dozen of said girl's besties not social distancing and drunk. Leigh is in a few of the photies too. Clearly, the three household rule has been broken, track and trace anyone, and ra Sellik are quoted as reminding the convicted racist of his responsibilities. BBC Scotland also have a responsibility to discuss the continuing behaviour of the clown with mental health issues, but chose no to. The First Minister has said nothing, Chris McLaughlin has said nothing, Peter telt them. Big Dick read out the public apology penned by the Aberdeen eight, and read out the signed names. They are all senior players, Jonny Hayes, Michael Devlin, Matt Kennedy, Sam Cosgrove, Craig Bryson, Bruce Anderson, Scott McKenna, and Dylan McGeouch. The most interesting is Michael Devlin, he is vice-chair of the Scottish PFA. Can he continue in that role? If last week's Rangers story which proved to be no story, had grown legs, then Devlin would have been contacted by the usual suspects for damning comments reference social responsibility and Scottish game awareness. Peter would have told Chris to talk to Michael? The way it looks, Aberdeen will have two games postponed(Saints and Accies), but have to field a weakened team next Saturday against ra Sellik. It's what Peter wants. It would be most fitting for the current state of Scottish if Aberdeen lose 1-0 at ra Stade de Gadd, the winner notched by substitute, Leigh Griffiths.

  19. I watched Rangers TV today for the first time and was impressed. Clive Tyldesley was competent, and KT kept imparting facts borne of experience. Obviously, situations we know to be true did not appear as we expect they should. Games against St Boo at Ibrox involve Bears throwing javelins, Pilums, and white phosphorus grenades into the visiting St Mirren fans. It's a legitimate tradition that could not be continued today. Further, the piped music failed to broadcast a minority of the home support singing sectarian songs. Thankfully, the wide TV shots of the Stadium in the last ten minutes did show the the effects of the Subway Loyal. Moving forward in these trying times, I think it's important that Rangers TV attempts to provide the perceived reality to so many of our club's detractors. Against the Perth Saints on Wednesday evening, we must show live executions of Barbour jacket wearing, tractor driving fermers.

  20. It has to be detrimental for the entire Scottish game. Last week we played away at the sheep. A side who have pretensions of being contenders, are playing at home, and doing pretty much exactly what the minnows do at Ibrox. It's pathetic.

  21. Agree the level of production was a huge improvement on what it normally is. Professionally presented by Emma Dodds, great pundit in McCann, Alex Rae I don’t think is as good but today he was fine, decent co-comms from KT, (thought he was a little subdued, he’s been better) and the legend Tyldesley on comms was absolutely superb. I was delighted the truly awful fake noise was binned at HT. Hope it’s the last time we hear it on RTV. While they are at it, bin the music and PA announcers, they are not required in an empty stadium. Don’t pretend we are there when we are not.

  22. Routine win, decent performance, I will take 36 more like it. I think some of the criticism of our performance is that we had our usual periods in the match where it went quite flat. Personally I think that is partly down to Us still not getting into top gear yet but Far more to do with the empty stadium. Football is a passionate game that has only evolved due to the numbers of fans paying to attend and watch matches. Football without fans is not right. If fans are not allowed to attend due to a global pandemic, there should be no football matches being played at all.

  32. Decent start, Hagi had a couple of chances, Aribo looking sharp, but I must admit I’m absolutely hating the fake crowd noise. Anyone know if there is an option to turn this off and just have comms? Clive Tyldesley is a top commentator, I’m enjoying him already.

  33. I thought Arfield looked sharp the other night but he was playing a bit deeper as well. In saying that he was in and around the box more than Kamara and Jack usually get so I think he's unlucky not to start today. Worth noting as well though that St Mirren did OK in their last game and caused us problems last season with their strength in the middle of the park so I'm not overly surprised the manager is happy to find his way into the game/new season with a conservative line up. Plenty options to change it if the game isn't as open as we'd like.

  35. Those were my feelings as well. An easy route to quickly overtaking RC is to "appeal" to the Rangers fan base. If they do this right, they'll and this partnership will be a success, revert to type or copy BBC and RC it'll be a disaster.

  37. Spot on. If selling morelos means covering the fees for incoming players then who cares. The Scottish media may paint whatever picture they like but the bottom line is, as already said by someone else, he is going to be a great profit for our club.

  39. I always said I'd want more than £20M for Morelos, but now, I think I'd take the £16M. His head's gone, his form and fitness is off, and we've got decent replacements in. I'm now of the opinion that it's time for him to move on - I never thought I'd say that!
