That's hard to argue against.

I'm sure it makes them feel better but without a coherent and widely endorsed plan that replaces the status quo, this sort of thing is unhelpful at best. It all just smacks of toys and prams, as if the UB has a monopoly on disappointment.

Would it be stating the obvious to add that TAV's defensive header at Motherwell's second goal was also third rate. That's both Motherwell scores where he should at the very least have done a lot more to defend our goal. I'm delighted he scores so many goals and can be a real asset in attack ... but he's a f*cking defender and if he can't defend then play him elsewhere in the side and get a real defender in his place.

Yes, probably Colaks worst game so far and should never have reappeared after half time. Sadly, he wasn't the only one.

I think you’re seeing what you want to see

There’s a little ray of hope every time Cantwell is on the ball.

At the Motherwell goal, Tav starts in the line of 4. When the ball is crossed Goldson and Davies have retreated to the six yard box to try to cover but Tav is still trotting ten yards behind them and nowhere to be seen when the goal is scored. This has become his defensive trademark and why we lose so many goals at the back post - we need fullbacks who have a morsel of defensive ability. Tav can be a decent player but is a defensive liability.

Spot on. Lundstram offers nothing in that role, slows everything down.

It’s a bloody good thing Tavernier can score a free kick because he’s been rank rotten this first half. His crossing has been utterly woeful.

So far the only crumb of creativity is coming from Cantwell. Too many wanting 2 or more touches. Gonna be a long afternoon.

Yet another goal lost at the back post.

The issue for me is whether Jack and Lundstram can partner effectively in midfield. The rest of the team is ok as long as last week’s Tav turns up.

Why would you change it? Tillman may get minutes but there's no way I'd be dropping anyone to accommodate him in the starting eleven ... unless Raskin doesn't make it. McGregor Tavernier - Goldson - Davies - Barisic Raskin - Jack - Cantwell Sakala - Kent - Colak

I hope never to see Celtic supporters occupying the Broomloan stand ever again. For me the priority at our ground will always be to maximise the seat allocation and convenience of our own fans and the provision for away fans should only ever be such that it doesn't inconvenience Rangers season ticket holders. Away fans allocations should be such that it suits our stadium requirements and should be the same for all visiting clubs. I have absolutely no interest in some misty eyed return to "how it used to be".

Good, August would be ideal.

Stop it right now

Oh fuck, it's the middle of March and this shit has started already.

I see Ms Kyle Fox has withdrawn interest in buying a stake in Rangers.

I’m all for banning Celtic fans from Ibrox. What they do at their own midden is their business.

Motherwell 0 Rangers 3 FGS - Colak

There's probably far too much of this at Rangers ... fans pouring scorn on fans, fans condemning directors, directors criticising fans, Club1872 feuding with the board, the board cold shouldering Club1872. You might think we don't have a common enemy.

I admit I have mixed feelings about self-styled heroes like UBs and TBO. It seems to me they get a hell of a lot of attention for such a vanishingly small number of people ... but maybe that's the point of them. Nothing they do couldn't be done equally well without creating these look-at-me brands. On the other hand I detest unreasonable attempts to curb people's freedom of expression. Why shouldn't these fans raise a banner if they want, whatever is printed on it and whoever is criticised. Why are the board of RFC and the police being such sensitive shrinking violets? You don't have to like these fan groups to appreciate the importance of them being able to protest if they want to.

Lundstram maybe if we need to see out a winning score. Morelos, not a chance, whatever he used to be he's f*cking hopeless now.

There really shouldn't be any debate the team that faced Hibs last week should also face Celtic in the semi final. Lessons learned about team selection - keep Tillman out of it and for God's sake don't let Kamara, Lundstram or Morelos anywhere near it.

The cynic in me thinks this is just one more initiative that no one will remember in ten years time.
