Rangers 4 - 0 Dundee FGS Wright

Aye but without doing much actual overlapping.

This is even worse than the Leicester v Palace borefest yesterday.

Motherwell 1 - 3 Rangers FGS - Tavernier

Everyman and his dog knew Souttar's injury record but he was a relatively cheap Scottish punt something we've always done and always will do. I wouldn't rush to confer legendry status upon Katic I don't think he lived up to the hope, he had some howlers for us one away game at Perth in particular. I really doubt we've forked out the rumoured fee for Ridvan. In his admittedly sparse cameos so far he's shown some promise and may well yet come good. He'll get his chance but whether he takes it or not time will tell. I remember when we signed Mark Hately complete with his horrendous injury record when he was returning from a near career ending injury, sometimes it works out but sometimes it doesn't something we have to live with it. The Roofe signing left me puzzled too if it's any consolation. Kent and Morelos should both have been sold according to our alleged model and it's probably best to punt them in January for something rather than nothing if they aren't going to re-sign. Out of Jack, Arfield, Helander and McGregor I think only Jack might get another yet but that's not guaranteed. It really isn't unusual to have that many players out of contract at once lots of clubs will be in the same situation. McGregor should already have been replaced and the fact he isn't is a major failure. Nothing wrong with questioning what's going on in fact it should be encouraged however we should be wary of creating scapegoats as deters scrutiny in other areas where some sharw of the blame may lay.

Name the last team to win anything of note without a Director of Football, Sporting Director or whatever label you want to put on it. I doubt we'll change from that now as it would be a backward step.

I'm probably in a minority in thinking Ross Wilson is doing a decent enough job over all. However we probably lost the league last season because we signed to many players who simply weren't ready to play when they signed Ramsay being the prime example while across the city they signed players who were fit and ready to play (the Japanese contingent etc) and yes you can perfectly reasonably attach blame to Wilson for that. Also we need to note the difference between projects i.e Tillman and the finished article Colak while you can argue Tillman may have long term value to us (should a permanent deal arise) there's little doubt Colak's current value to us is many,many times that of Tillman's even if at his age any sell on value will be minimal. Perhaps a better balance between those 2 categories needs to be found I really think we have a decent of squad size wise and quality wise, certainly good enough to win the SPFL and have a decent crack at the EL, however much it hurts we really have to admit we're simply not currently good enough for the CL no matter how sore that is to accept. Everyone points to Club Brugge but seem to forget they took their fair share of hidings for a number of years before finding their feet. I certainly think questions need to asked on the medical side not only in regards to the unusually high number of injuries but also why the recovery times seem to be so long. We certainly don't appear to be as fit as previous seasons but I'm at a loss at the reason for that if it is indeed the case. I can only put that down to application or perhaps a change in brand of coffee at Auchenhowie. I'll refrain from making a managerial comment there's plenty other threads for that snd don'twish to derail this one.

He should have known better.

Whatever the problem is he ain't the solution.

Rangers 2 - 1 Liverpool FGS Tavernier

2-2 Tavernier

Kudos for telling wheelchair fans to pick up their tickets from a non wheelchair accessible building. Plus ça change!

People should be more concerned with the medical side of the business at Auchenhowie rather than the scouting. Irrespective if this is a new injury or an aggravation the recovery times for our players are pretty horrendous.

Really need to kill games off. At 2 up against 10 men we should have showed no mercy. The horseshoe just slows things down and removes the momentum.

Hearts 1 - 3 Rangers FGS - Tavernier

You can access practically every Pemier game and many Championship games for diddly squat as it is, takes a special kind of stupid to turn down the opportunity of getting paid for something that's free for anyone who can be arsed to look for it. Every English League game is available as are many non-league games. Hell even Highland League teams make money streaming games.

I think it was more a case of they'd done their homework and simply opted not to deal with King, it could be advocated that they believe subsequent events proved that to be the correct decision.

It was indeed GL, DP and GT they split Laxey's holding between them. Iirc King had offered 2p per share more than Laxey accepted from The Theee Bears. That was a very peculiar decision from Laxey not typical behaviour and quite telling in its own way

King never bought Laxey shares. Laxey point blank refused to sell to King and accepted an offer of less per share than King was offering, very, very unusual behaviour froma hedge fund but I guess they had their reasons.

The landed gentry speaketh!

A wig on your glabrous pate would have sufficed.

Very much King's baby.

And my Personal Shopper couldn't be arsed to take it back to Ibrox for a refund

One of the more obscure stats from the Napoli game was that their players ran almost 8km more than us. One of the things that has caused the conspiracy nutters across the city to go into apoplexy these last 2 years has been our incredible levels of fitness, stamina and effort. What's happened this season? I don't think despite a different managers pre-season preferences that there's been a collective collapse in our fitness and conditioning department. I think on the whole the players are fit enough, Morelos aside and how that situation developed the way it did is a failure of both player and management. Players are simply going through the motions their actions or rather inactions speaking louder than words, and that cannot be allowed to continue and fester.

If it makes you feel better just keep pretending everything is hunky dory and they're singing Kumbaya round the camp fire.
