Happy we are going through, but a little disapointed in the way we played. I thought we were by far the better team over there and we should have pushed them harder. there was a lot of sitting back trying to soak up their play. Had we been more positive we would have scored as their defence is poor. Skriniar is done and there keeper was average at best.

I usually give him a hard time, but Big Jack was great last night. Also a special mention for Raskin and Souttar who were very good

I feel a draw is on the cards. Fener coming at us, and us squeezing through the gaps. C'mon The Gers, finish the job 

Very cool 

Rangers 2 - 2 Fenerbahce

Dessers has won the last four Gersnet MOTM polls unless I am mistaken. The marmite reaction to players and managers at our club is a bit weird imo. 

Dessers, what a performance

Still buzzin from last night   what a brilliant result, especially cool for those bluenoses that travelled. For me Big Cyriel was awesome and very unlucky not to have a hat trick. Raskin, Souttar & Cerny were also top notch. RIP Christopher Potter 😔

I would like to continue with no away fans at old firm games. No Bear should lose their seat, or even have to suffer moving for one of them.

Just watched the "Training" video on the Rangers youtube channel and the only one who looks like he's gassin is Billy Dodds.

Honest Question - I have no experience of pro football training, but surely they should break sweat, surely they should be too out of breath for all that laughing and joking. Is this really any good preperation wise ?

I am very sceptical of the takeover, verging on outright fear. However  I need to reappraise my position if Celtic fans are so opposed to it. I don't think they are bright enough for a double bluff.

I thought it was just me. My spidey senses are going nuts concerning this takeover. I just cannot see how others making loads of money from the club benefits us long term. And these guys will expect loads of return on their investment. It's what they do.

Yes this for me Rab - said on the other thread the system is why we are poor. Play 3 at the back as well as 3 midfielders and dont stick Hagi out of position on the left. Get our width from Jefte and Cerny. 

Our play leaves to much space all over the pitch. Our current personnel would be more suited to a 3-5-2. 

 

I'm also in agreement with this. There are times Raskin looks like a midfield one. oh barry barry 🤨

I loved watching Big Calvin Bassey having a great game against manure last night. His performances are a big giruy to the dutch who slated him. 

Dessers for me

Too soon ?

Is it just the fans that can see how bad this guy is , because no matter how many goals he gives away hes the first name on the team sheet.

You are not alone. I think Butland is one of the worst goalies to wear our colours. Truly rotten keeper.

I have completely lost the ability to spot a foul. Last night there were several occaisions when Killie players had both arms wrapped around our players in their box, particularly Propper and Dessers. Then there is dragging our players back with one arm when they are making forward runs. This is something that I have been seeing all season long. I'm baffled . Was there a rule change at the start of the season that I missed ? 

Apart from that, good come back last night and a great pass and goal from Ridvan and Dessers.

Dessers easily

Sports Direct is a bona fide business, and a very successful one too. Douglas Park and John Bennett are bona fide businessmen, successful ones. 

I don't think you're being naive, I think you're being hopeful, you're being optimistic. I think we're all guilty of doing that when it comes to football. Despite all evidence to the contrary we cling to hope, we 'keep believing' to quote the great Marvin. I think some supporters had become so dismayed with the team in recent months that they're welcoming any change, without properly analysing it. They're hopeful because they wanted managerial change at almost all costs and now it has arrived. The new management team are a known quantity too, so why not be hopeful. 

 

I'm different. I'd resigned myself to a poor season because I'd accepted the need to rebuild the club. To lower costs, to change the make up of the squad and to allow someone time to try and build something. I'd accepted it couldn't be done in 6 months and was willing to give the players, management team and directors time. So I'm disappointed by this change and I'm disappointed we've ripped up the plan. Barry Ferguson was a wonderful player and a good captain for the club. But I've seen nothing to suggest he's capable of being our manager and he certainly hasn't achieved anything to warrant getting the position. 

 

Now, neither had Gerrard, or Souness. Both were gambles that paid off. While John Grieg didn't and neither did Ally McCoist, or to a lesser extent Stuart McCall. So I can understand why many people are hopeful, are feeling positive and looking forward to games again. It's not been a lot of fun recently, I absolutely get that. 

 

But I think the message I'm getting is the bulk of our directors now want out, they've had enough. I think if we'd just shown a bit more support and accepted there would tough times during this it would have come good. That's my 'hope' showing, my blind faith despite evidence to the contrary.

 

I'd rather the club was owned by people who care for it deeply, that's my preference and I remain extremely nervous about the 49ers and what they want with us, whatever random Leeds fans might think of them. 

 

 

Thank you for saving me type that out John. It's pretty much how I feel. A lot of our support have turned into Varuca Salt from the Willy Wonka movie.
