Ah, we're wearing orange. That changes everything - I fancy us to win tonight.

Do you think we'll learn from the last CL horror show and actually attempt to tackle the opposition this evening? I find a beefy tackle is often a good kick-start (for the team) during a faltering performance. Maybe that's why we've been shite for months.

I heard bad reports about Stadio Del Alpi from Bears who attended our match there in the mid 90s. Inter are my preferred Italian side (Klinsmann and Football Italia are to blame). Been keen to go to the San Siro for years but the forthcoming demolition has been the necessary prompt to do it.

You're probably right. I'd just be looking to play as many players capable of defending well as possible.

I think that's just the section where they put English fans, CB. 😀

I'm not sure throwing him into the team for this fixture will help him settle. We need to make sure the forwards are willing to get back and become second defenders. I'd play 4-5-1 (crowd the midfield) and tell everyone to defend except Morelos... McGregor Tav King Davies Barisic Sakala Lundstram Sands Davis Matondo Morelos

I wonder where it'll be placed (I know it says the Copland Road end but there's a fair bit of space)?

Absolutely no chance. Best to focus on keeping the score down.

Well, today's the day. Sticking with @Franc Ergs' Captain Beefheart theme, I strongly suspect Napoli will 'booglarize' us. I'm going to try to watch it but can't promise I'll stick it out until full-time. Might need some 'long neck bottles'.

I'd rather they looked hungry and determined than either of those things.

I wonder if this crap will ever go away?

Looks a bit false to me but even if it isn't, I'm not sure what they've got to be laughing about at the moment. I'm sick of hoping for 'a reaction' this season. Just get out there and show some pride in yourselves, FFS.

Stop showing off! 😀

Why would people with no connection to the club invest in Rangers? With English/Italian football, there's the prestige and 'sportswashing' side of it. In Scotland, what's to be gained?

Already been and as far as I'm aware, there are no plans to demolish it (unlike the San Siro).

I sort of agree with you but I'd still prefer to go uber-defensive and maintain an air of respectability. I don't think team morale would benefit from another hiding.

Some of the things GvB and some of the players have said have me doubting he can turn things around. He's tried a few things but we never improve on a consistent basis.

I can still hear it hitting the back of the net (I was on the North terrace). Durrant was my favourite player then. We could do with a smidgen of his guile just now.

I'm taking the wee man over to Milan in April, with the intention of going to see the Inter v Fiorentina match while we're there. I've checked online about tickets but it seems there isn't a general sale until a couple of weeks before the match. Anyone have any advice about getting tickets or just general advice about the city (the wee man is 11, so piss ups are off the cards)?

My first trip to Hampden, Cooper scored that free kick and Durrant scored the winning penalty...

I don't recall ever being this certain that we're going to get absolutely annihilated.

Aye, what a finish. They're arguably Europe's form team just now.

I'd hope most managers have a bit more self belief than that and don't use hashtags to make points. 😀

Racist.
