Yeah that jumped out at me as well. Given the amount of tops and March we've moved recently would have expected to see this as a higher value / figure. Whilst £23M looks and sounds a lot, it's around the figure I was expecting. Say every year that this level is unsustainable but given Covid and the implications, didn't expect anything "more positive". Interesting few years ahead tho for the board - automatic qualification to CL (ie winning the league) is now a must.

Some harsh words on Morelos as he has to play mostly with his back to goal and try to link play,maybe with the passing abilities of Kent/Hagi it is possible he will get to play as a striker again.

More important than ever that we win the league now and cash in on the CL pot of gold.

The headline loss of £23mi is worrying but around £10m that can be attributed to CV19 and clearly our failure (deliberate or otherwise) not to sell one of our key assets has also contributed to the loss.

Admin 2... ? ? COVID has had a huge effect, as it will have on every club. However, what annoys me is that we keep passing up the opportunity to sell players. I'm like a broken record at this point, but it really annoys me. Morelos is a big player for us, but he should have been sold last year, two years ago, for £15M; we're not getting that now. He's a key player but we can re-invest that kind of money for two, three replacements. Kamara, too. He's one of my favourites, and a key player for us, but we really should be cashing in. I feel like we keep missing the boat. It's not sustainable.

Unless something fundamental changes, I'd say this Rangers team has very little chance of beating Sparta by two goals.

Looking at the accounts, we’re getting just over £4m per year from retail ? Is that correct? Not a lot is it? thought the Castore deal was £4m per year up front? (£4m per year over 5 years) And Rangers got a percentage of sales of merchandise

Difficult and not for good reasons. Most players had periods of reasonable play then periods where they couldn't make a five yard pass. I'll give it to Kent as he looked lively when he came on and it was his play (and fine finish from Hagi) that allowed us a point.

What are your thoughts, folks?

I’m still not convinced the ball went out from the corner kick that Morelos scored from at the start of the game. If it did maybe Tavernier can bend the ball like Roberto Carlos and we just didn’t know about it ?‍?

Does that £10m include lost revenue from EL home games ? We would have had 8 home EL games worth about £12-15m in tickets sales we never got

All clubs have suffered from Covid, so it would be interesting to see how we compare with them.

We were al too confident

Kent for me too. The good things about his play when he came on was that he keep it simple making decent runs and passes without overdoing it. Clever pass to Hagi for the goal and another i think to Roofe that was slightly over hit. Thought both he and Hagi made a huge difference at the break.

@Bluedell, what’s your take?

I contrived to miss the whole match. It seems that my luck was in.

Difficult one for a scorer because not sure who'll start 2-0 Gers FGS Tav

Hagi and Kent were the only shining lights on another wise below par night. We are still in it though!

We rarely look like beating anyone these days. We dont have any leaders on the park. We some fine individuals but they no longer function as a team. Gerrard isnt getting the best out of his players and i fear that there are just too many players who have had their day at ibrox. Im grateful that the spfl is so poor. Its the real reason were top of the league. Weve rode our luck for the most part. Barasic tav davis kamara hagi and ill chuck in aribo as a luxury we can ill afford. The end product just isnt there. As much as i want us to hit form i dont see it happening.

I'm a big fan of Morelos. He's capable of making life really difficult for opposition defenders but just isn't doing that at the moment. No idea where his aggression has gone (having a kid, perhaps?).
