King loves a bit of attention.

To be fair, Hearts were playing a pretty decent, well-funded side and gave a good account of themselves for the first hour or so. I didn't watch the scum game but they were playing Real Madrid and again, reportedly gave as good as they got in the first half. We didn't bother turning up and deserved a hiding.

We're at home against Napoli. We can give anyone a game at Ibrox.

I think most of us are more depressed than hysterical. Two humpings and two gutless displays in five days. Grim.

Five more heavy defeats in store with that kind of attitude.

Precisely! I keep seeing/hearing people say we can't compete at this level. a) That's a pathetic argument. b) We didn't even try to compete last night.

It's a bit concerning that we've played Morelos and Tav when they're injured. I know plenty of players play with painkillers but surely that's why we have a big squad. Which brings us back to our transfer policy...

So are the players not following instructions or are the instructions poor?

It feels like we're giving the opposition a free goal (or two). Anyone a fan? I noticed Kenny Miller saying if you're going to play this way you need defenders who go and attack the ball - do you not need that anyway!? That first goal last night, it looked like Tav was holding Goldson down. Bizarre.

Tav is great when he's playing well he's feckin' useless when he isn't. So he represents our whole squad as much as anyone.

I think the current board care more about the club than Murray did. But they share his inability to speak up for or to the fans. As long as the money's coming in they couldn't care less what we think.

If performances of this standard continue, the prices keep going up and the cost of living crisis gets as bad as expected, things might get bad quickly. I've been thinking of packing in football for a couple of years and nothing much is changing my mind.

Rangers are already selling those off-site hospitality packages. So, we'll have genuine supporters (including my old man, who just had to give up his ST) missing out, whilst big match Charlies get tickets. Class.

I don't think it is. But it's the manager's job to fix it. I don't think GvB is going to fix it.

On the plus side, Gomez, Alexander-Arnold, Van Dyke and Robertson look nearly as bad as our defence. If we can figure out how to attack, we might score against Liverpool.

Fair enough. I think the players are a bit sick of his shit tactics, so we're partly in agreement.

3-0 Napoli.

Aye but you need to spend hundreds of millions to put in some effort.

A wee bit. Plenty of clubs from smaller countries give the big guns a game.

That post-match interview was almost as concerning as the performance. It's like he's content losing, being humiliated and doesn't have any desire to do anything about it. He needs to go.

2-0 Napoli.

He seemed quite upbeat. Very odd..

The two are synonymous, in my opinion.

I agree but another poor performance won't do GvB's reputation much good. We need to start playing some decent football.

Napoli just missed a penalty.
