Football should definitely be cancelled now. I mean, how many innocent footballers have died as a result of this madness!? Scandalous!

This new venture just sounds like a more solidified version of what the CL already is - a set up for the big clubs from the big leagues. I can see why Man Utd are keen, as there's no guarantee of them finishing in the top 4 at the moment. I agree but our televised domestic matches are on Sky and our EL games are on BT, so it all comes as part of the package (especially with the Covid restrictions currently in place).

I'll be honest, I'm madly in love with Kemar Roofe.

Coming from the land that time forgot (the Borders), I always thought people from East Lothian were remarkably civilised.

We have only been drawn against SL once before. European Champions' Cup 1961/62 quarter-finals and they beat us 4-3, on aggregate. A score to settle, perhaps.

For starters, it's great to be in the group stages for the third year running. Given the amount of qualifiers we've had to play, some against decent opponents, it is a terrific achievement. Standard Liege seem to be another good opponent, who have also had some very respectable European results in recent history. I'm looking forward to the match - our defence will need to be on form and our attackers will need to be clinical. I'd stick with Kamara, Davis and Arfield in midfield and start with Aribo, Morelos and Kent up front.

Playing the bottom of the league side and Hamilton at home should be easy matches. But Hearts and Hamilton beat us earlier this year whilst the yahoos were beating all and sundry.

I admit I was blasé in that regard, craig. I am aware you have a far greater understanding of junior football than I do and this conversation has very much demonstrated that.

So what league was JohnMc referring to?

False dawns (I've lost count), jumping the gun etc.

Upon reviewing JohnMc's comments, I made the correct assumption.

I assumed JohnMc would've been at least partially focused on our league (the top flight), given he is a Rangers fan and this is a Rangers forum.

Did you miss our matches in the first quarter or 2020? Or their winning run?

Are any of the top flight 'part time teams in particular', craig?

There's an obvious contradiction in these two comments. I can't see the premiership being stopped early this season. Time will tell...

I base my comment on the wider Rangers support, rather than this forum. The OP worries me. We totally f*cked up after our last victory at the Noncedome. I'm a pessimist...can't help it.

Win a big game - we will win everything. Lose a big game or draw a diddy game - Gerrard must go.

We played well on Saturday. They were awful though - no ideas, no creativity, no nothing. Yes, we were partly responsible for that due to good tactics and some exemplary performances but let's not get ahead of ourselves. A lot of work to be done. More so against the likes of Killie and Aberdeen than against a Celtc side who are on the way down but not out of fuel yet.

Why?

I was hopeful this victory over that lot would result in a mentality change throughout the club and support. The support has remained the same - bipolar. It remains to be seen if the mentality of the playing squad has improved but threads like this leave me expecting a 0-0 draw with Livingston while that lot win 6-0 at Pittodrie.

I see Celtc FC employee and Scottish Nationalist Michael Stewart was on Sportscene on Saturday evening. He stated Gerrard's comment about Morelos being the victim of double standards was 'daft' and the Rangers should 'let it go'. Why is a partisan, bitter yahoo mouthpiece, like Stewart, paid to spout shite like this by a publicly funded broadcaster? I'd advise Bears to stop paying the licence fee - we're being charged to fund our haters.

I'd just prefer the lion was red. Like the Lion Rampant and like our club crest. Maybe 'brand' Rangers will benefit from 'fresh' modernisation of this 'complimentary' nature*...time will tell. *pointless jargon apology

Decent performance. Should have scored a few more. Dundee Utd are garbage.

I wasn't sure about changing the Scottish red lion to a white one but if ScotNats like it, I'm dead against it. Nothing wrong with heritage and tradition. ??

Looks good, although the white lion (instead of red) on the official crest is a bit odd.
