  1. 6-2 flattered them IMO. We had a good goal chalked off for offside and played most of the football that day. They had about 7/8 shots and scored 6. When does that ever happen? Let's not forget that their first/second goal was also miles offside. Our own 5-1 victory in the next game was far more convincing
  2. Agree with regards to Nico coming on later in the game but for me O'Halloran is a must to start this game. This will be the first game in a long time were the opposition will come at us in numbers and for me an outball and a player with pace could be crucial. If O'Halloran can't find a start in this game, I would start to wonder about the reasons for signing him.
  3. Not recognising that high ball after high ball was not the answer has nothing to do with luck
  4. I agree wholeheartedly. We as Rangers fans need to box clever with this issue but I fear there is large section of our support who are so dogmatic that they can't see the bigger picture
  5. I still think 3-5-2/5-3-2 is a good shout in the long run. Wallace and Tav are more effective going forward IMO
  6. This is my one hope Frankie. Celtic will come at us and that can only help us and if we can be competitive in midfield we will stay in the game IMO. More space going forward will also give McKay/Miller/Forrester/O'Halloran the licence to use their pace and trickery more as opposed to coming up against a packed defence. Does anyone think MW will go 3-5-2 and try to push Wallace and Tavernier up the pitch more? They could act as defenders as well as a wide attacking threat? I think if we go 4-3-2-1 we won't get much from them
  7. Won't even see it tbh. My daughter is 2 this week and we're having her shindig on saturday. That will be a happy distraction. I'll flick my phone on about 3 o'clock and look with baited breath but I'll be honest, the older I get, the less I "enjoy" the whole OF experience
  8. No wonder I'm not really looking forward to this game
  9. Liewell has already fired off briefs to private dicks and pyschologists for the lowdown on Mr Collum. Meanwhile, wee Willie has boarded up his windaes, just in case... And Kevin Clancy...? I hate to generlise but I wonder what team he would be rooting for?
  10. Agree 100% but I fear we will see all of the 3 you have listed above. I hate to be a Debbie Downer but I can't say that I'm looking forward to the game this weekend with any great gusto.
  11. The last thing we should do is display a banner about them in any context. We talk on a daily basis about the obsessed bunch from the East End who will no doubt have a banner about Rangers on saturday but leave that to them. That's their pathetic M.O. and I would rather we would promote our own history and club than make some sad point using child abuse as the subject matter. That make us no better than them in my eyes.
  12. Never really bought into the Blue Bros thing. With all due respect to those club, I couldn't give a flying damn about Chelsea or Linfield. Means nowt to me and I don't really know anyone that buys into this thing tbh
  13. I don't get annoyed by it mate but to me we are Rangers, not Glasgow Rangers. Our badge/monogram is RFC not GRFC. Each to their own and all that but to prefix Rangers with Glasgow just turns us into us into other teams with Rangers in their title. We are one of the very few clubs in world football that doesn't have a geographical reference in our name and I like that.
  14. C'mon people. 4 games in and we are still finding our feet. Let's not get too critical. I have faith in MW and genuinely feel he will get this right. I am as disappointed as any other fan about our stuttering form but people need to seriously have realistic expectations. Considering where we have come from, I'd be more than happy with a healthy top 4 showing this year so we can use that as a foundation for the real challenge next year.
  15. I rate Rodgers to a point. He got lucky at Liverpool with Saurez and a fully fit Sturiddge for a one off wonder season but as soon as Saurez left and Sturridge got injured, Liverpool dropped from potential Champions to the 7th/8th in the table
  16. Sorry to go off message, but my immediate reaction to seeing and reading this was, "F**k me, the sooner we get a serious kit the better". Puma's little trip down memory lane to plunder the old UMBRO, NIKE, ADIDAS strips is horribly unimaginative IMO. Apart from the odd wacky away strip, I really like the simplicity of the new ADIDAS strips. Back on message. Could Crooks fill the CB role?
  17. Here's another Pub quiz cracker...What is unique about Rangers, Celtic, Arsenal, St.Mirren and Albion Rovers that sets them apart from all the other clubs in Scotland and England (playing in all 8 leagues)
  18. Does anyone know what the deal is with Windass?
  19. Whatever happens at Parkhead, I hope the outcome does not get overblown and derail what we are trying to acheive long term. It's one game in a long, long season. The priority for me is not the OF game but for us to find our playing pattern with the new additions and IMO that could take 8-10 games. If we can gather as many points as possible during that transition period and in turn be close enough to them in the league come the next OF game I'll be happy.
  20. Good to see McKay getting a call up. Slightly surprised Wallace is not there but Roberston and Teirney there, I suppose they are younger. Not really sure what we learn from adding Steven Fletcher again? Must have naked pics of wee Gordon or something?
  21. Not sure about the above tbh. My wee boy goes to a Catholic school (long story...) and in his class there are Pakistani and Chinese kids so I'm not sure how that works? I take a back seat with all the "protocol" as my wife is a Catholic therefore we didn't have to do anything. Not sure what happens with the Asian kids?
  22. Arthur Numan always looked liked he was the 4th member of A-Ha. Still looks in great nick
